Echoes of Old Gardens
What this place is...
Dear Reader,
Let me tell you something about myself. I am a Norwegian/Dutch European, a historian, researcher of old wisdom, a dedicated cartomancer, medium in training, a forager and herbalist. I honor the mystic traditions while applying the knowledge and practices for this day and age.
My name is Janne. It is so nice to have you here on my site.
My relationship with the tarot counts more than 30 years. You can read more about my tarot story HERE. It was only after I started to really develop, refine and trust my intuition, that my tarot journey became real and trustworthy to me. Over many years now, I have been dedicated to develop the feminine, intuitive side of me, and I now know that my intuition it is in fact just as valuable as my rational mind.
Herbs, teas and tinctures came later, but flowers always touched my heart and soul when I was a child. I rarely picked them - I knew they would wither if I did. Instead I sat with them, admired them and thanked them. In summer, one would often find me in the back of the garden, under the lilacs. As I grew older, I sort of forgot about the flowers, until I didn't! They came back into my life as teachers, friends and helpers.
​
The result of the effort I put into this work is a deep respect for the hidden knowledge of the Earth and the Plant world. It is not for everyone, it takes time and dedication, but the secret feminine wisdom whispered through the soul, is accessible for those who are called and willing to listen.
The feminine and intuitive approach is the approach of the High Priestess (intuitive wisdom and sacred devotion), the Empress (fertility and nature) and Strength (courage and compassion). More carriers of this wisdom tradition is greatly needed, so much welcomed you are, if you feel called.
