Joy was a Certified Angel Card Reader, Artist, Reiki Master, and also practiced Psychometry (reading of objects). She started reading an old Tarot deck years ago, and expanded her gifts to include Angel Cards. She loved the beautiful art work and that each card has many meanings. Her spirit guides and Angel guides were always with her and brought great insight to her readings.

Spirituality and healing were all around her growing up, and guided here down this path. Many of the women in her family were healers, including her great-grandmother.

​This quote from Gandhi sums up what she believed:

“In a gentle way, you can shake the world.”

Joy passed into the next life on the Summer Solstice of 2025. Her love and enthusiasm for life touched all those who met her, got readings from her, or received reiki. She will always be a part of the Hearthside family.
