Hello,
I'm Mihaela

My Story

Ugh, nobody will read this, Karen (she seemed to say). I never feel comfortable telling things about myself (it must be my Scorpio energy!).

​

I hesitated whether to portray myself as just a Tarot reader, as (you will discover on my social media platforms and more), this is more than Tarot. It’s Tarot with a twist. Beyond all my tarot knowledge, I love creating a bigger picture for my clients by using psychology tips and humor. I strongly believe that we are all worthy of living our best possible lives. And if I can do anything to help you with that, then I will do my best to do so.

My purpose is to support the people I meet in gaining a wider perspective on life and ultimately, grow as a person. And if you’re here on this page, I am sure it’s not by chance. So hello there, new friend. My name is Mihaela.

​

So here’s what you need to know about me  – straight to the point, just the way I like it:

• I am a millennial woman born in the year when Lionel Ritchie’s top song was “Say you, say me” (1986, I’ll save you the Google search).

• I have a license in Psychology and a master’s degree in systemic and couples’ therapy.

• Nevertheless, I never felt the calling towards this type of counseling until recently. My career revolved around communication and PR for the last 10 years or so. I have worked both with big and small companies and with PR agencies, so communication has been my life. Literally.

• I am a passionate writer and have held several blogs throughout the years, talking about the topics that spiked my interest - psychology, spirituality, and dating challenges in modern society. All powered up by sarcasm and self-irony (again, Scorpio. Can’t help it).

• I struggled with crippling anxiety that often translated into panic attacks, insomnia, claustrophobia, and somatic symptoms for years. Yes, a classic millennial, indeed. That is until I discovered Joe Dispenza’s books and started practicing his meditations. Complete life changer. 

• My favorite item in my house (except my Tarot decks, it goes without saying) is my FRIENDS quotes poster.

• I am an absolute introvert, guilty pleasure for reading anything related to psychology, quantum physics, manifesting principles and spirituality. Yes, NERD is my middle name.

• I am a travel enthusiast, and I visit different locations worldwide at least 3 times a year. 2022 will find me partly in Spain, Italy, Bali and Romania.

• I played online poker for more than 13 years – it seems like there was always unique chemistry between me and cards of all sorts!

• Last, but not least. For the astrology enthusiasts - I have a Scorpio sun, a Pisces moon and a Sagittarius rising.

​

I started out my research on Tarot as a pure hobby. One of my former bosses showed me a tarot deck a few years back (the Illuminati one) and I instantly fell in love. I started reading dozens of books, watched hundreds of hours of other Tarot readers at work and practiced every day, keeping a record of all my readings so that I could improve their clarity and accuracy.

​

I then started practicing with my friends and gained a deeper knowledge of how it works. Then, acquaintances and people outside of my network started contacting me for tarot sessions. What was deeply outstanding was that they repeatedly confirmed that the messages I delivered perfectly matched what was happening to them. Plus, they were given the same insights in Theta healing sessions, counseling/therapy sessions or by their astrologers. And this happened even when I held sessions “in the dark,” with no prior information about the persons or situations they were asking about.

​

As I am a skeptic myself, I wanted to test the accuracy of my sessions even more. So I took around 300 recordings of my readings and checked how many of them were truly confirmed. The result was 93% accuracy (this includes my absolute beginner stage).

​

So, at that point, I said to myself – well, this might be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. So that is how Tarotwist was born.
