My name is Brandon Ballentine. I've had an astrological practice for about 13 years and a Tarot practice for about 9. I integrate astrology into my Tarot readings. (So have your birth details ready for me if you have them. If not, that's fine too). In the course of attempting to be a more well-rounded individual over the years, I have studied, practiced, and taught Yoga for the better part of a decade, I have worked in the fitness industry, I hold degrees in both fields, and I have worked in construction and operated my own business as a contractor.
My readings can cover pretty much anything you want to know about. I am uniquely qualified to offer insights into the spiritually-oriented questions of those undertaking a nondual yogic sadhana (practice) or who make use of the closely related teachings of Hermeticism as a means of personal development. I have been working with people in this area as a Swami teacher for 6 years now outside the context of the Tarot, but I find that the cards provide a good medium for this type of work when people are interested. My monastic name is Swami Anantananda Giri, for those who are curious.
​
I also take the full spectrum of typical queries: "What does my year hold?", "When will I meet someone?", "Should I leave this (person, place, job, etc.) or stay?" I don't like to tell people what they should or shouldn't do - your free will trumps any insights I might have, accurate or not - but I am happy to field these types of questions and frame them in the context of likely outcomes. Recently, the cards told me what was wrong with a client's car. If you have a question, the cards have answers.
