58: Feng Shui Your Way with Janine Lowe & guest Liz Dean

Ever wondered what it means to follow your intuition and actually trust it? This conversation between Feng Shui consultant and Chinese astrologer Janine Lowe and tarot expert Liz Dean gives a warm, down-to-earth look at how cards, symbols and stories can help you stay emotionally steady in a busy, noisy life.

Liz, who has written around 25 tarot books and decks, shares how she stumbled into her first publishing deal simply by saying yes, and how that beginner’s deck quietly sold “a third of a million copies.” She talks about growing up as a highly sensitive person before the word “empath” was common, and how tarot became a way to honour feelings instead of hiding them.

As she puts it, “tarot… gives you a picture to kind of hang all your feelings on… so you can connect with it and yourself.” The chat moves from tarot history and symbolism to very practical emotional support. Liz explains the difference between the major and minor Arcana, why the infamous Death, Devil and Tower cards are really about change and release rather than doom, and how cards can show potential paths rather than fixed destiny.

There’s a strong emphasis on self-trust: “when you start to trust your intuition, that is one of the… foundational… blocks of healing.” You’ll also hear about her new Heart’s Path Tarot, a nature-based, heart-centred deck designed to be gentle enough for beginners yet rich enough for seasoned readers, and how she uses tarot and simple exercises to help people tune into their bodies and inner guidance.

If you’re interested in emotional wellbeing, sensitivity, or building a more intuitive relationship with yourself, this episode offers plenty to reflect on. Could tarot be one more tool in your self-care kit, right alongside therapy, journalling and sober living?
