María’s tarot journey began circa 2006, after she bought a deck behind her parents’ back that she hasn’t put down ever since. What started as a hobby became a passion and eventually her full-time occupation in late 2015. In 2017, she established herself as The Sibyl’s Tarot. Today, María is a reader of multiple systems, a divination teacher, a frequent conference presenter, and the author of Tarot Tableau Revolution, published by Weiser Books.
Her signature style, known as Tarot Tableau, blends traditional tarot and European cartomantic techniques, resulting in a system that aims to make tarot effective, useful, and to the point. As a reader, she combines prediction and analysis, exploring available possibilities and offering actionable steps to give her querents a 360º perspective on their situation and readings that are practical and relevant.
While tarot is her default medium of divination, she enhances her practice with other divinatory systems, with Lenormand and the Oracle Belline being two big favorites. She has designed three decks: The Oracle Belline Reimagined, The Thinning Veil Oracle, and The Oracle of Victorian Symbols and Gothic Tales. She has also collaborated on the guidebook for The Voice & Vision Tarot by Ciro Marchetti.
Education is a cornerstone of her work, offering recorded and live classes, one-on-one mentoring options, and speaking at divination conferences worldwide, including StaarCon, TABI Summer Conference, and The Oracles Rebellion in April 2026.
Beyond her undying love for tarot reading, María indulges in her other passions, including history and antiques, especially the world of antique jewelry, literature, cross-stitching, travel, and spoiling her bratty cats. She is based in Madrid and lives with her husband, serving as the live-in servant to their five entitled kitties, who have an extraordinary skill for stealing and chewing cards.
