The Empress card from the forthcoming Wizards Tarot is actually a
portrait of Corrine Kenner
by artist John Blumen.
Meet Corrine Kenner
Hi! I'm Corrine Kenner, and I specialize in bringing
metaphysical subjects down to earth.
I've written twelve books and edited four anthologies,
including Tarot for Writers, Simple Fortunetelling with Tarot Cards, The
Ma'at Tarot Workbook, Tarot Journaling, The Symbolist,
and Crystals for Beginners. One of my books, Tall Dark Stranger: Tarot
for Love and Romance, was a COVR Visionary Award finalist, marking it
as one of the top three divination books of 2006. I created
the Epicurean Tarot and the Christmas Tarot, and I'm
currently working on a book and deck set called the Wizards Tarot. My
work has also been featured in the
Encyclopedia of Tarot.
Public Recognition
I've been a keynote speaker at national and international tarot
conferences, and I've taught tarot classes and workshops in England, Canada, and
across the United States. I'm also a frequent guest on talk radio shows,
web-based podcasts, and internet forums. Some of my books have been
translated for a worldwide audience; they're available in Portuguese,
Italian, Romanian, and Russian. Here in Minnesota,
Metro magazine called me one of the best psychics in the Twin Cities. I've
also been featured in Downtown Minneapolis and CitySouth
magazines.
My Background
I was born in Minnesota in 1964, and raised on a farm in North Dakota. In my late
teens, I lived in Brazil. In my early twenties, I moved to Los Angeles, where I earned a
bachelor’s degree in philosophy from California State University. For the first
part of my career I worked as a newspaper reporter, magazine editor, and media
relations specialist. Now I live in Minneapolis with my husband, a software
developer, and our four daughters who range in age from seven to twenty.
My
Code of Ethics: Your Rights and My Responsibilities
You have the right to enter into a tarot reading without fear. You can
rest assured that I will never use tarot cards to predict death, disease, or
disaster of any sort.
You have the right to ask questions during your reading, and I will do
my best to answer them.
You have the right to a truthful, unbiased reading. I will not hide or
obscure the meaning or the messages of the cards.
You have the right to choose your own future and control your destiny.
I’ll use the cards to help you make the most of your current situation.
You have the right to be treated with respect, and I will treat you with
courtesy and professionalism.
You have the right to confidentiality. I will protect your privacy, and
I won’t discuss your reading with anyone unless I have your permission.
(I do reserve the right to report incidents of abuse, neglect, and illegal
activity to the proper authorities.)
It's my goal to make the tarot easy, fun, and comfortable for everyone —
whether I'm conducting a tarot reading, teaching a class, or
sharing what I know through my articles and books. I want to de-mystify the
cards, without taking away from their mystical appeal.
