Testimonials

 
 

Word of mouth is still golden, and I have been delighted to work with some pretty amazing people over the past fifteen years.

Please scroll down to read their testimonials.

While feedback is delightful, I think my biggest praise are the people that keep coming back, the regular clients that return for years. Watching their lives evolve is my biggest validation, and I am honored.

“Hilary was the winner of my Tarot Apprentice contest which I sponsored in spring of 2011. What sealed the deal for her winning was the reading she did for me at Reader’s Studio 2011. Hilary’s reading was accurate and impacted me deeply. I knew right away that she had a gift. I have watched Hilary continue to grow as a reader but also as a business professional. She is ethical, mindful, spiritual and extremely honest. She is the face of the future of tarot.”
—Theresa Reed, aka The Tarot Lady, tarot reader and mentor, www.thetarotlady.com


 “I was very impressed with the precision of Hilary’s reading.  She got back to me right away, and her interpretations of the cards in answer to my queries were not just spot on, but deep and multi-dimensional. This is significant to me, because all of my interaction with her was over email.  She gleaned the most profound layers, the unseen gems, of my reading and brought them intuitively to the forefront. This is the profound difference between a ‘reader’ who relies on definitions and established symbolism, regurgitating already published information, and a gifted intuitive.  The intuitive uses her gifts to weave the truest and most pertinent meaning of the cards into a metaphysical tapestry, and then communicates or articulates her discoveries in a way that is understandable to the querent.  I will recommend Hilary without hesitation!”—Donna L. Faber, Artist & Writer, www.donnalouisefaber.com
 

 
 “When I’m asked for reader recommendations, the first person to come to my mind is Hilary Parry. Hilary as a reader is accurate and honest—but gentle and hopeful. As a person, she is accessible, friendly, and lightens the spirits of all who are lucky enough to spend time with her. She knows the Tarot through and through, effortlessly breaking it down for those who aren’t familiar with it and broadening perspectives for seasoned querents. From her ‘Card of the Day’ to her famous and innovative ‘Clock’ spread (ask for it by name!), Hilary turns Tarot into a rewarding, eye-opening and inspirational journey of spiritual and self-empowerment.”—Courtney Weber, tarot reader and co-creator of Tarot of the Boroughs, www.tarotoftheboroughs.com
 

 
 “My reading with Hilary was also my first tarot reading, period. I really didn’t know what to expect, but she put me immediately at ease, explaining the process and her approach to reading. She explained each card I pulled in detail, referencing traditional tarot interpretations as well as her intuition and previous personal experiences. I found her readings to be extremely accurate with regard to both past situations and future events. In one reading, for example, she successfully predicted the job offer I was soon to receive and the identity of the person who would help me get it. Having your tarot read by Hilary is like having a conversation with an old friend, regardless if it’s your fifteenth reading or your first. She tells it like it is, with grace, humor, and excellent advice for putting what you’ve learned during your reading to the best use for your life. I enthusiastically recommend a reading with Hilary to anyone.”—Lorraine Klimowich, Editor
 

 

“I have gotten readings before and I know Hilary is authentic and reliable. It’s only been a few days but I was definitely able to use the advice I received from Tarot to make some decisions I was struggling with. What I like best about working with Hilary is her ease of communication and down to earthness. I am able to go back and re-listen to our readings oftentimes making things more clear even months after! I would absolutely recommend Hilary for a reading: she has a real gift and intuition to match, she is reliable and her prices are very fair! She is 100% genuine, not some hokey ‘psychic’ that is going to tell you when you’re going to get married…Hilary’s readings are honest and logical…Not some pie in the sky crystal ball reading. She gives true to life advice and always keep it real!”—Laurie S.


 
“Hilary has a friendly and honest approach to readings. I would recommend Hilary because she was honest and interpretations were explained in understandable ways. Make sure to have your questions ready going into your reading with her!”—M.B.

 

“Hilary is sweet…insightful…well versed…educated. Our readings in the moment have been dead on. The biggest thing for me is that she confirms what I already know…but let me add this without me giving her a lot of information—for the skeptical and/or nonbelievers. You are sweet…you live miles away from me but I am so comfortable talking and emailing you. I don’t know what it is about Hilary. Her and I connect for some whatever cool reason. Hilary has guided me in the last 3 years of my life and please know that those 3 years have been a transformation for me. I wish I could have you do a reading on me every day! :)”—Amy Mc

 

 
“After my reading with you, I feel reassured about my own instincts. I feel comforted that if conflicts arise, I will have someone that I trust to consult. You clearly have an affinity, not only for Tarot, but also for interacting with people.”—Melissa R.
 

 
“Hilary was straight to the point with regards to the cards. After a reading with her, I believe I have a better outlook on some events that are coming. I recommend Hilary’s services. I think that the card interpretation was very close and was accurate.”—Lisa M.
 

 
“After my reading, I have seen a change in the clarity in my thoughts and more confidence in my instincts. You made me feel at ease. What impressed me was the honesty of your conduct. It felt like you genuinely wanted to help me. The reading helped me make a decision I was putting off for long. It boosted my confidence for certain future aspects of my life. I would recommend your reading services because they are excellent. You were absolutely great. I will come to you again in due time.”—Anonymous
 

 
“We had a few hesitations before we booked Hilary . . . we wanted a reader who was serious about their work without a lot of ‘bells and whistles.’ Someone who was straight-forward and yet fun! Fortunately, Hilary is a straight-forward, no-nonsense, intelligent, and articulate reader. It is clear she cares about her craft and works hard to deliver the best possible experience for her clients! So down to earth . . . so personable . . . and so fun! She communicated with me in such a positive way, I felt like I knew what I was getting right from the get-go. After my reading with Hilary, I feel a sense of peace and a feeling of being in control. Mostly feeling like I can finally acknowledge what I already knew . . . a confirmation of sorts. It’s like weeding the BS out of my life! (Can I say that?!) I would ABSOLUTELY recommend her . . . We can’t wait to have her back soon! Her readings felt honest in every way, regardless of whether it was what we ‘wanted’ to hear or what we ‘needed’ to hear! She wasn’t afraid of getting straight to the point! She was an absolute professional and made us all feel completely comfortable within minutes of meeting her! It was as if we had known her for years! We can’t wait to have Hilary back and we hope to work with her for many years to come!”—Amy G. and the girls
 

 
No hesitations booking with Hilary: we’ve seen her before for readings and will continue to do so! I continue to be amazed with how the readings transform themselves with time. Each time I reflect on the reading, I find more meaning and purpose! Hilary is honest, approachable, funny, and incredibly gifted at what she does! We’ve always done group readings and so it’s a great reason for me and my girlfriends to get together! We also find that your readings give us the extra boost we need to make tough decisions! I absolutely recommend you (Am I allowed to say hell yeah?!). We have had readings in the past, but since our first appointment with Hilary in 2013, we have continued to rely solely on her services. She’s a pro! Thanks for everything and we will see you again soon!”—Amy G.
 

 
“I have been a client of Hilary’s since 2015, and in that time period every reading leaves me with a feeling of clarity, purpose, and a newfound determination to take no prisoners! Hilary’s sense of professionalism and respect for her craft is what makes working with her first rate. I love the homework she brings, and I’ve read several great books as a result of our working together. I absolutely recommend Hilary because she is the BEST! She is the real deal and she takes her craft seriously.—Amy G.
 

 
The reading confirmed what I have recently been feeling and made me even more positive about the changes happening. You’re so fun and I feel like I’m talking to myself when I get a reading from you. 🙂 I’m so happy I got to share your readings with my friends! Also i learn something every time about the cards or other mystical things. The books you bring are awesome and one of us always ends up buying a copy for ourselves. You are straight to the point and FUN! You pull no punches and you talk to and not at people. You rock!”—LH
 

 
“I already have recommended you to other people, because without telling you, asking in silence of the cards, you were able to accurately read my cards. I appreciate your ability to zone in on the specific. After my reading with you I have been much more at peace with my situation. You have renewed my faith in the extra-natural. You are amazing!”—Diane Jones
 

 
“I wanted to have a tarot reader at our family party and had to be sure that Hilary would be the right reader for us. After my ‘test’ reading I knew she would be perfect. She was a great success at the party! I’ve now had several readings with Hilary. Through them, I was able to reconnect with a neglected passion in my life, and I am now actively pursuing new career options in my life. Hilary approaches her work with integrity, honesty, and humor. Thank you, Hilary… I’m so glad to have met you!”—Ruth D.

 
“I would recommend Hilary, specifically for a party. She is reliable and easy to work with. I have noticed I approach my life with more positivity after my reading with her.”—Anonymous
 

 
“At first I hesitated about getting a reading with Hilary, fearing that it would affect my religious beliefs about faith. However, after working with Hilary I realized my life is going really well and I just have to acknowledge it. She is accurate and willing to go the extra mile for her clients.”—Jessica T.
 

 
“Hilary’s tarot reading was honest and to the point while delivered in a friendly and supportive tone. I felt that she genuinely has my interests at heart. I will say I feel very optimistic, validated, and inspired to follow my dreams. I would recommend a reading with Hilary for her intuitive insight and ability to empower her clients. I can’t wait for my next reading.”—Grace
 

 
“Just wanted to let you know that I only just now listened to the CD you sent me of the reading you did for me a couple of weeks ago. I think I’ve been dealing with so much resistance to the very message of the reading, that I’ve been avoiding it . . . but having listened to it now, I want you to know how right on it is . . . and how much I appreciate your interpretation of the cards. You do good work!”—S.L., healer
 

 
“This woman has a gift. I have used her when I needed some guidance and I feel that her insight and interpretation through the cards has helped me immensely. Thank you Hilary and your awesome gift!”—Amy
 

 
“Thanks again so much for this amazing reading, Hilary! I absolutely love the fact that you are very intuitive and smart. You understand things so quickly and into perspective. I know it’s not given to everyone. Cherish your gifts because you have the ability to explain complex things in such an accurate and succinct way… In other words, you always express things as they truly are. I feel and see the word ‘professionalism’ for you and I think it represents you very well.”—Vanessa
 

 
“At first, I was skeptical about getting any sort of a tarot reading. I thought that it was a bunch of bullshit nonsense. After I had my first reading, I was shocked at the accuracy of the reading. This is someone who, at the time, did not have a lot of insight into my personal life. I got the three-card spread dealing with my past, present, and future, and was completely surprised by the accuracy and thoughtfulness of the reading. In short, you would have to be insane not to want a tarot reading from Hilary. Even the most skeptical will be surprised.”—Dave
 

 
“Hilary Parry is not only a tarot card reader/interpreter but a delightful person. Her response to my request was immediate and fulfilling. So many of my friends wanted a reading that Hilary was asked to come a second time and without hesitation came the following evening. Without a doubt I will call Hilary for a reading and feel comfortable, refreshed, and satisfied. Thank you, Hilary, for the confidence you exude; it is contagious.”—M.L. Walker
 

 
“Hilary is a kind, caring, skillful, and detail-oriented worker at any task she undertakes, in personal and professional endeavors. I’ve seen Hilary’s excellent work in publishing, in her cheery and helpful retail guidance, and in her sensitive practice of tarot reading. I highly recommend her for whatever project she deems appropriate in which to challenge herself.”—Lisa R-H.
 

 
“My ‘work’ relationship with Hilary was during the time that I ran a local monthly event called Third Friday, and while it was work, it was more about the creative enthusiasm that stood out for me with Hilary. Each event had a theme, and Hilary was always at the ready to take it to the next experience level to make her portion of the event exciting, entertaining, and interactive, from Karaoke to Tarot readings. Hilary takes her work very seriously, but thankfully, also has a good time making it come to life as well.”—Jenifer Ross, Owner, W@tercooler
 

 
“Hilary is a gifted and trusted tarot reader. She gives accurate readings and premonitions about what I need to hear. Not only do I listen to her advice, but I also reflect on it months later and find it very much applicable to my life. I can say that she is a witty and warm tarot reader that you will benefit from time and time again.”—Catherine Chen
 

 
“I have to recommend the tarot reading skills of Hilary Parry, she is awesome, go see this woman now!”—George Courtney, astrologer, photographer, and co-creator of Tarot of the Boroughs, www.tarotoftheboroughs.com
 

 
“I just wanted to thank you again for the reading you gave me the other day—it really helped me to put a lot in perspective and be more mindful of how I am with some things in my life! I still see that Ace of Swords and keep thinking about what it means for me—and how to move forward . . . I really appreciate the guidance and advice from the reading. It’s put my mind at ease . . . I can’t wait to be read again!”—Liz
 

 
“I hesitated before purchasing a reading because I wasn’t sure if it would be worth it. The reading helped me to find focus on something I kind of already knew, and to take action on it. Hilary is amazing and patient, and answered all my questions both prior to and after the reading. I’ve started taking steps that will help to improve my life, and the reading is what kicked me in the butt to do it. I would absolutely recommend a reading with Hilary: she is warm and helpful, explaining how the cards work together to share their message. Give it a try! Even if you don’t know what to ask, or don’t think you have anything to ask, Hilary can still help you sort it out. Patient and kind, and willing to work with you.” —Rebeccah S.
 

 
“I have no reservations purchasing a reading from Hilary: She is my trusted tarot advisor! Hilary, you’re just that good, no woo woo and straight to the point! Your readings are always insightful and right on the mark. I’ve noticed after readings that I am more open in the situations I asked about. Yes, I recommend Hilary as a tarot reader.”—Meredith Popp
 

 
“I appreciate Hilary’s straightforward responses and that I have been able to gain more insight and solutions to problems as a result of my work with her. I find myself more focused on how to plan some things we discussed. I like her honest and direct manner, and her willingness to explore ways to help. No b.s. advice and reminders of how to focus my creative energy. For those reasons, I’d absolutely recommend a reading with Hilary. You are very direct with people so they should brace themselves for that. For a straightforward reading and direct advice, I highly recommend your services.”—Anna P.
 

 
“I like Hilary’s positivity and the peace of mind her readings provide. I believe she is accurate, welcoming, and exceptionally accommodating.”—Anonymous
 

 
“You were totally right about my Justice reversed and having to deal with those issues. I’m still waiting to see how the year forecast manifests. You do not pull punches. Even when I don’t like the answer, you don’t try to sugar coat things. The 13 moons reading [year forecast] gives me things to keep in mind and pay attention to. This is of the good. You’re accurate, concise, and you explain things well without going over people’s heads. You are always honing skills, trying new spreads, and expanding your repertoire. The one thing people most need to know about getting a reading from you: If you want platitudes and bullshit – go somewhere else! You’re one of the few people I trust to read Tarot for me because I know you’ll give me an accurate reading even if it isn’t what I want to hear.”—Sarah B.
 

 
“If you guys need a reading (and I’m not available) Hilary just handed my 
ass to me (in a good way).”—Melissa Cynova, author of Kitchen Table Tarot
 

“Thank you so much! Your email reading was very easy to read. I appreciate the insight and I love following you on Facebook by the way! I was actually looking back at this reading since some time has passed and I definitely see what the cards were saying, especially the last card. It all tied together.”—Veronika


“I really appreciated your candor and friendliness. You confirmed something that was just even harder to swallow… if that makes sense. I will definitely recommend you to others: you are easy to talk to and very real and just tell it like it is. I would have liked maybe some dates and figures but that is really too hard and i understand that. If people are going to choose to work with you they need to realize that they need to be ready and open, in spirit and mind, to receive the truth and not just what they want to hear. They also need to know that you will channel that information in a clear, considerate, and honest way. Thank you for making my experience gratifying for me.”—TC


“I had no hesitations booking with you… I was guided by intuition to do so. No changes yet, everything is flowing just like readings suggested. You are a very insightful, honest, open, friendly and very real person. Highly intuitive and simply so pleasant to talk to. I think your readings have given me the feeling that there is a plan for me, that I am following it, that despite certain things that go wrong in life, I have confidence and feeling of protection. You are an honest, truest, amazing woman. Your readings are very accurate, very impressive. I am so happy I know you, Thank you for everything, looking forward to another reading with you when time comes.”—Daria S.


“My hesitation in booking a reading stemmed from whether the reader would be on target with her reading. Since having a reading with you I feel more compelled to move in the direction that was laid out in terms of work and career. You were generous with your time and knowledge, and checked in with me frequently to make sure I understood what you were telling me. I shared the experience of getting a reading with my daughter so we have been talking together about it! I would absolutely recommend you: you were professional, accurate in your reading, and delivered what you had to say in a very understandable way – and you like Coney Island!!! You were very helpful in helping me sort some things out and you were really interested in me understanding what you were doing and telling me. Thinking of having you do a group event or reading for other family members!”—Susan


“I had no hesitations once I decided on the reader that I wanted: The readings were for many of my guests, and not for me. I appreciated your professionalism: You stuck to our agreement, was punctual and gracious, and went above and beyond our agreement by volunteering to do readings online if the time limit was not sufficient to cover all the guests! My guests were very pleasantly surprised by your insights. You are great at your craft and a wonderful person to deal with—you are the best!”—Christina A.


“After a reading with Hilary I have more confidence that many of these issues I was troubled by are not of my making or fault. I do less ‘spinning’ in my mind in thinking about this issue. What I liked best about working with Hilary was complete honesty, direct responses, easy to understand, conversational when necessary, great explanations of how you see the cards, but also giving space to how someone who also reads might see those same cards. I felt better leaving the reading than I did coming into it, and that to me is always the sign of a great reader! Confirming that many thoughts I’ve had are on track, especially in how Hekate’s story is reflected in my life as her Priestess. I would absolutely recommend Hilary and her services: You are one of the best readers I know, and I know that anyone I sent your way would benefit greatly from their time with you! You are an honest reader, sensitive, compassionate and caring in your readings. And that you’ll make sure there’s understanding and clarity before the reading ends.”—Tamrha


“What I like best about working with Hilary is she tells it like it is. No sugar coating. Your reading allows me to feel more comfortable with my decisions (confirming my gut instinct). I find your readings to be accurate and also entertaining! What people need to know about working with you: If they don’t want the truth better not ask the question. You are spot on.”—Lisa M.


“I had no hesitations booking a reading with Hilary… I just had to find the time to do it! A tarot reading with Hilary reminded me of things I already knew. I would absolutely recommend her services: the reading was honest and raw, which was super important to me. What I liked best was Hilary’s honesty and how she explained things… I knew I needed a rest, but didn’t take one until she kicked me in the butt to do so. What you most need to know about working with Hilary: you can’t make this shit up!”—Danika


“Hilary has been the tarot reader at our yearly Halloween party for five years now, and everyone raves about her at the party and always asks if she will be there giving tarot readings. Tarot is her life, and she is serious about it. Even though Hilary is serious about tarot, she is great, funny, and honest in her readings.”—Rita M.


“Since my reading with Hilary (my first tarot reading ever!), I am experiencing more peace in my life. She was very calm and comforting, and I received reassurance and confirmation on my thoughts on the situation. Hilary is a kind, thoughtful, and thoroughly accurate reader.”—Anonymous
