Greetings Traveler!
About Tarot Traveler
Tarot Traveler is the official site of Carrie Slayton.
I am Carrie, your Tarot-obsessed guide for smart, sensitive humans who want real insight, not staged mystery or sugar-coated “love and light” talk. I have spent years deep in Tarot, symbolism, story, and the strange ways intuition taps us on the shoulder when we are finally ready to listen.
My work lives where Tarot, coaching, and creative problem-solving meet. I help people untangle patterns, name what their inner voice has been whispering for a while, and turn all of that into grounded next steps. Sessions are part reading, part conversation, and part gentle call-out in the best possible way.
If you are feeling stuck, restless, or creatively dried out, you are in the right place. Together we will use the cards to ask better questions, shift your perspective, and reconnect you with the part of yourself that remembers you are not actually lost. You are just in the middle of your story.
Who This Space is For
Tarot Traveler is for you if:
-
You are done with spiritual bypassing, toxic positivity, and “just shift your mindset” advice that ignores the way your body tenses up and says, “Nope.”
-
You want insight that respects both your intuition and your nervous system, not guidance that talks you out of what you feel.
-
You are curious, reflective, and a little bit skeptical. You side-eye “love and light” platitudes and want something deeper and more grounded.
-
You are moving through change, grief, transition, or creative blocks and want a companion for the road, not someone to fix you.
-
You enjoy symbolism, dreams, stories, and archetypes, and you are willing to explore how they show up in your real life.
-
You want tools, language, rituals, and practices you can take with you long after a session, so your growth does not stay stuck in a single reading.
This is not a space for giving your power away. This is a space for remembering you have it, and learning how to use it with care.
The Heart of My Practice
This work is rooted in:
Sacred Symbols Speak: Decoding archetypes, symbols, and dreams to awaken deep inner wisdom. If your subconscious is monologuing, we might as well put subtitles on it.
Healing Through the Veil: Blending Jungian concepts, astrology, and intuitive knowing to support psychospiritual integration and soul wholeness. Less “fix me,” more “I am finally meeting myself.”
Creativity as Ritual: Using Tarot as a muse for journaling, storytelling, and reclaiming the art of personal myth. Because your life story deserves to be on the best seller list.
You Are the Oracle: Offering tools, not predictions, so you can walk your own path with clarity and courage. No crystal ball theatrics—you are the main event.
Honoring Every Soul’s Journey: Holding space for reflection, growth, and mystery—no matter where you are on your path. No leaderboard, no gold stars, no app rewards. Just you, your story, and personal insight included with every purchase.
My Story
There was a time when I searched outside myself for every answer—seeking signs, certainty, and permission to trust what I already knew deep down. Like many of us, I was walking the edge of the mystery without realizing I was already in it.
For a long time, I lived in the “love and light” lane. If I could just focus on the positive and keep my mindset high, I thought I could out-affirm my way through anything. Then I met my own anxiety in full force, and it refused to play in the enlightenment playground. My nervous system was saying “what fresh hell is this” while my spiritual life was telling me to smile through it. That is when I stopped trying to bypass my humanity in the name of being “evolved.”
My journey with Tarot shifted from a performance to a quiet conversation with something wiser within myself. What started as private reflection slowly turned into a life path—a devotion to self-inquiry, symbolism, and sassy dialogue. Dreams joined the path—unruly, beautiful, terrifying, and true. They cracked me open and taught me to listen in an entirely different way.
That is when things really started to change.
Tarot taught me to embrace the unknown rather than fear it. It gave me a language for my intuition and a mirror to see my own patterns with compassion instead of judgment. With every reading, I found new ways to braid my inner world into my outer life, and that integration changed everything.
I wanted to share my fascination with Tarot with like-minded seekers, so I jumpstarted my own Tarot Tuesday study group. In this practice space, I learned how to hold space for others in the same way—meeting them at the threshold of their own stories, questions, and transformations.
We laughed, we cried, we geeked out over cards, and we learned so much from one another. It was a deeply enriching experience that I highly recommend. Truly, anyone can do it. I created a free training you can access here: How to Host a Tarot Study Group.
So, what makes me qualified to teach others about Tarot?
I have been a Learning and Development Professional for more than 15 years, engaging employees in the workplace to spark curiosity, inspire growth, and design transformative learning experiences. As my passion for personal growth deepened, I naturally shifted from training into coaching. I became an ICF-Certified Coach, then earned certification as a Dreamwork Coach—learning how to guide others through active imagination, deep symbol work, and dream integration.
I founded Cosmic Coaching LLC to offer intuitive and psychospiritual support for those navigating life transitions, creative blocks, and soul-level questions. Today, I blend my background in personal development, Tarot, dreamwork, and chakra coaching to help people decode the stories their subconscious is trying to tell—using the cards, their dreams, and their own intuitive compass.
I invite you to walk with me a while.
My work is not about handing you answers from on high. It is about creating a space where you can hear what your inner wisdom has been whispering all along. It is about holding the lantern high so you can see your own path more clearly, and walk it with confidence and trust.
You bring your questions, patterns, and “I keep ending up here, why” moments.
I bring a decade of Tarot, psychospiritual coaching, and a knack for naming the thing you have been circling around.
If you are ready to walk between the worlds—with a guide who has been there—I am honored to walk with you.

Why This Path Was Chosen
Because curious seekers and seasoned travelers deserve more than vague vibes and doom-filled predictions.
I chose this path to guide people through the symbolic landscapes of Tarot in a way that is honest, grounded, and a little bit enchanted—blending timeless archetypes with personal insight, dreamwork, and esoteric wisdom in language real humans can actually use.
Tarot Traveler exists to help you see yourself more clearly, stretch your creativity, and deepen your spiritual connection through immersive learning, intuitive coaching, and story-rich experiences that make the work feel like a journey, not a chore.
What I Believe In
I believe Tarot is not a gimmick or a party trick. It is a mirror of the seeker’s inner journey, a map for the soul, and a steady companion during seasons of change and transformation.
As travelers on this path, we walk between worlds on purpose—honoring the mystical and the practical, the ancient and the evolving—so that insight does not stay in the realm of theory. It becomes something you can live, one choice and one brave question at a time.
