Carly Fischer
Owner, Tarot Reader, Teacher, and Author
Tarot came to my hands as a gift from friends. They walked me through my first reading and taught me how to interpret the tarot with love and compassion. This first experience set the template for the rest of my career using tarot is a tool to bring people together and spark meaningful conversations.
I really honed my reading technique while working at Facebook in Austin. Colleagues sought me out after hours to read about upcoming career moves and product launches. In those early days, I learned how a great reading clarifies choices. When I ask the right questions, inspired by the cards, a person can find remarkable answers from within their own heart. Inspired by the positive impact of the sessions, I left tech and founded Sound Sight Tarot in 2017.
My mission is to help people create their future by taking mindful actions today. I aim to keep individuals empowered as they chart their path forward in life. My choice-centered reading approach encourages clients to explore life with a sense of humor and an open mind. My hope is for clients to replace fear of the unknown with an insatiable curiosity for all that may be.
