What Fellow Creatives Say about Experiencing a Tarot Card or Tea Leaf Reading with Me

I'm Tabitha Dial, and this is a Testimonial Collection. I’ve helped others see their potential with Tarot Card and Tea Leaf Readings for nearly twenty years.

Tarot Cards and Tea Leaves have helped me learn my life lessons, too. I’ve gone from the motto “Create your Fate” in my 20s to early 40s to “Create your Refuge”. Creating Refuge is about big wins through small goals and celebrating how imagination and intuition can motivate all of us.

My mission is to provide you with strategies, planning systems, encouragement, and accountability to keep you creating. Readings have been a trusted method to do all of the above. From Colorado to Kentucky and Ohio, and now New Jersey. From my heart to yours.

What Others Say about Receiving Virtual Readings from Me

Full Tarot Card Reading Testimonial by Jen Ratcliffe 🚣‍♀️🌿

This was my first tarot reading - by kismet Tabitha happened to be using a deck with the art style of my favourite artist...

Tabitha walked me through what each card meant, how the art reflected the meaning and how this might connect to the larger deck and life. She was patient, friendly and even sent me further details afterwards which was great for my ADHD mind.

Her warmness was felt through the screen. She clearly has an intuitive nature as I felt completely at ease straight away.

I've recommended her on to two people since already.

Full Tea Leaf Reading Testimonial by Ellen Newhouse

Note to self: Never underestimate a teacup.

Apparently, my future—and quite possibly my creativity—was hiding on the side of one.

Yesterday, I had my first-ever tea leaf reading with @Tabitha Dial | Creating Refuge and man alive, it was amazing.

I asked her to focus only on what my creativity looked like for this coming year. I didn’t tell her anything about what I’m planning, so I was stunned by what she saw. (Yes, after all these years, I’m still a bit of a skeptic. Oh Spirit, please forgive me.)

At first, I kept thinking, How is she seeing that? But before long, I began seeing my own images too—which felt incredibly powerful.

Let’s just say this longtime skeptic left an even bigger believer in mystery once again.

Thank you Tabitha Dial for an amazing reading! If you are wanting a Tarot Reading or a cool Tea leaf Reading, I’d totally check Tabitha out!

Full Tarot Card Reading Review by Sirka Louca

Wow! I came into the reading looking for guidance with a specific and timely issue that’s been really upsetting and disruptive. Tabitha hit the nail on the head with each card! It was amazing how precise and clear the reading was.

I joined the session open and hoping to get some general guidance of where to go with the situation. What I left with was clarity on the situation AND how to address it. I actually left our session with the exact wording that I’d been looking for to start the conversation, and a plan on how to proceed.

Tabitha’s skill, understanding and intuition were amazing! I highly recommend anyone interested in tarot to book a session with her!

Full Tea Leaf Reading Review by AnastasijaG

I came to my first tea leaf reading with no expectations and no agenda, just curiosity.

What I got were three images that went straight to the things I’d been wrestling with: the need to actually rest, the fear I’m running out of time, and everything I’m still working up the courage to put out into the world.

Tabitha holds the whole thing with such warmth and ease that it feels less like a reading and more like a conversation with a very perceptive friend.

Full Tarot Card Reading Review by Janna Ashley

Tabitha is a gem of a person and a fantastic tarot reader. I gave her a lot of information (oversharing, neuro-sparkly person that I am 😆), and she listened with incredible patience, thoughtfulness, and care.

What stood out most was how insightful and grounded her reading felt. She didn’t just interpret the cards—she helped me connect them to what I’m currently navigating in my life, offering perspective, encouragement, and meaningful guidance along the way.

I left feeling seen, inspired, and with a lot to reflect on. Highly recommend, and I’m already looking forward to future divinations with her! 💛
