Metro Detroit’s Best Tarot Readers and Magick Shops

Tarot cards took off in the 1970s and, for some, became dark arts relegating them to underground practice. But, cult classic films like Hocus Pocus and The Craft and even the Harry Potter series influenced entire generations to embrace and explore the occult--including tarot.

For nearly three decades and especially with the rise of social media--tarot has exploded in popularity. Detroit has several celebrated readers who bring their gifts to the masses both in-person and online.

Boston Tea Room

1220 Woodward Heights, Ferndale, MI 48220

Michigan's oldest and most respected psychic venue, Boston Tea Room has everything for psychic practice for the experiencing practitioner to the curious newbie--in fact, maybe, especially for the newbie. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable in helping customers find items they want from crystals to posters to tarot cards--the store also has a ton of readers who can read in person or on the phone. Couples readings, chakra readings, and even mediumship which focuses on messages from ancestral loved ones are available. Beginners can start with a short 15-minute reading and can choose from several readers--contact the store for a recommendation.
