Sarah Reads Tarot
Sarah has read tarot for over thirty years, learning the cards at sixteen in New Mexico and tracing her practice to a Spanish/Comanche curandera (Mama Lala of Puerta de Luna) and the Isleta Pueblo. She keeps a small downtown office in the Higgins building and has been a fixture of the Missoula Saturday Market for a decade. Readings range from quick five-card pulls to full-hour Celtic Cross, love, and career sessions, with numerology offered too.
The story
You don't usually expect centuries-old New Mexico folk practice in a third-floor downtown office block, but head up to Office 307-C inside Missoula's Higgins Building and that is precisely what you get. Sarah learned to read tarot at sixteen in New Mexico, drawing her lineage from Mama Lala of Puerta de Luna—a Spanish and Comanche curandera—as well as traditions from the Isleta Pueblo.
With over thirty years of reading experience under her belt, she has spent the last decade working as a regular fixture at the Missoula Saturday Market and inside her private space downtown. Her sessions run the gamut from quick five-card pulls to full-hour Celtic Cross spreads covering love or career, alongside numerology work and dedicated birthday card readings.
What it's like
To catch Sarah at her Higgins Building sanctuary at 127 North Higgins Avenue, you will need to book ahead via call or text—doorstep walk-ins are reserved for her outdoor stall during the summer Missoula Saturday Market season. The third-floor office setting is quiet, unpretentious, and built for focused conversation rather than theatrical mystery-mongering. Officially, sessions are billed for entertainment purposes, but you should still show up with a concrete question or focus in mind.
The move: Book back-to-back hour readings and compare what the cards say about where the two of you are heading.
📍 Before you go By appointment (call/text ahead); also reads at the Saturday Market in season. Billed as for entertainment purposes.
