I'm Virginia, I love to read cards, crystals, lip prints and palms with the utmost kindness, care and fun. What makes me unique is my passion for mystical work and expertise in elevated guest experience. Guests tell me they enjoy my focus on gleaning empowering, uplifting information and my specialty tarot decks. I have traveled throughout the United States and Europe bringing inspiring reading experiences to curious event attendees from all walks of life. I have special experience in reading for exclusive events for VIP guests from Silicon Valley to Hollywood. My approach is gentle, supportive, professional and approachable. It’s been a true joy to read for hundreds of events since 2013.
Virginia kept in touch with me prior to the event and showed up on time to set up. She is so approachable and kind. She has just the right touch of mysticism without being over the top. She checked in with me during the event and was such a hit, I kept her for another hour.
We reached out to Virginia to help add a little extra something special to my daughter's Bat Mitzvah party. She was incredibly easy to communicate with and we quickly arranged a contract. I was worried that with everything else going on during the party maybe people would not take advantage of having a tarot reader there, but word quickly spread about how great the readings were and before we knew it, there was a huge line of people excited to get their readings. Every person who walked away from their reading said "wow, that was amazing!"
Sad that I did not have the time to get my own reading, but I am so happy that the party guests had a great experience and I am so happy we went with Virginia to add that special something to the party.
Response from Virginia Jester of City Mystic:
Hi Shay,
Thank you for your sweet review. Your event was such a special treasure- thank you for trusting me with your incredibly special guests. It was a true pleasure working with you. I had the best time working with your attendees and holding little "spirit boost" sessions to help find perspective and empowerment. Call me anytime- it would be a joy to serve at your next event. Happy 2024!
Virginia was really great! Such a nice addition to the event which got lots of positive feedback :)
She was super speedy at coming back to me, flexible on costs/timings, arrived on time and was a delight to work with!
Thanks again and see you next time :)
Response from Virginia Jester of City Mystic:

I look forward to providing you with excellent guest experiences the next time you need high quality event entertainment. We have exciting developments coming in 2024 to elevate our Tarot experience.

Virginia was absolutely engaging and responsive from the initial interview process. Once we spoke on the phone I could tell she was the positive and friendly tarot reader I needed for my girls night. Virginia prices are extremely affordable and even when our time went over, she offered to stay longer at a reasonable rate. Thanks Virginia to for amazing tarot experience!

When I'm reading for events I'm focused on the best experience for your guests. Some guests like to go more in-depth and I do my best to indulge them whilst also taking into account those waiting in line. Lines do tend to form. I've found this to be a great opportunity for planners to place snacks, beverages and self-directed activities in the vicinity of where the line forms to keep guests entertained throughout.
I also offer digital enhancements for events with 100 guests or under that free them up to enjoy your event without spending their time in line. I will share more in my response to your quote request.
In my readings I share uplifting, positive, empowering and inspiring information. I want your guests to feel great and bring a contagious enthusiasm for life and Tarot to your event. Smiling, eye contact and confidence in leading the experience are important to me! I'll never, EVER spread doom and gloom.
I'm spatially quite flexible. I have worked in environments where my readings fill an entire room as well as tight spaces with a small table placed in a nook. I am happy to work wherever you need me- but please remember that its best if there is enough space for three to sit at a time- one seat for me and two for guests. People LOVE having their Tarot read together- either as couples or as friends sitting together for moral support.
As I mentioned, lines almost always form, and the truth is that not all guests in line are able to get a reading. I have found that most events generally need at least one additional hour of reading time. Please keep this in mind as you are making your booking time selections. If you need help determining how much time you might need please feel free to message me and I'll be happy to help you determine what's best for your special occasion. Sometimes I am able to accommodate a request to extend the service time on the spot, but typically I am booked for several events in a day, particularly during Halloween, holiday party season and wedding season and am not always able to accommodate this request. Choosing your booking time slot wisely can help secure enough reading time to please more of your eager guests. Please note there is a two hour booking minimum for my in-person services.
I provide high quality, positive, inspiring and empowering readings to your guests and attendees. My focus as a reader is to share uplifting, empowering readings. As a tarot deck creator I embody the City Mystic Lux brand with a strong background in luxury service and retail management. I value service, professionalism, and my role as a modern and approachable reader. All backgrounds and spiritual approaches are welcomed at my reading table.
I treat all readings, wether they be Tarot, crystals, palms, lipstick prints or astrology as a personal strategy session. My personality is a mix of mystical and practical and my primary role is to support your guests in having the best time possible.
I find that guests are pleasantly surprised with their readings and leave our mini sessions feeling lighter and have enthusiasm to share what they experienced with their friends. Even the introverts enjoy their readings and love to have something to chat about with fellow attendees!
If you're not sure what type of reader or service is right for you please reach out! I'm happy to help you discern if I'm a good fit for your event and love passing on tips I've learned help events go smoothly from my decade in the business.
Not sure if you want readings? Many of my customers love booking private group classes and workshops! Ask me more about it in your quote request!
I'm looking forward to meeting you, and if you made it all the way to the end, thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my mystical entertainment company, City Mystic Lux!
All I need is a flat surface and three seating spaces. I've got the rest covered! (Of course please be sure to place me some place where there is enough light to see the cards and as far from speakers as reasonable).
