She is also an ordained priestess in the Fellowship and Church of Isis.

Mary currently produces “Mary K. Greer’s Tarot Blog” which focuses on tarot history and research, tarot in popular culture, and tips and techniques for reading the cards.

Integrating card meanings is the true art and heart of a tarot reading. It's about seeing through to the central pattern or gestalt of the spread: the organized whole that is more than the sum of its parts. We'll acknowledge the many ways in which this is normally accomplished, while focusing on exploring a few unusual methods. You'll find that practicing these special techniques results in programming your brain by forming the neural links that are then experienced as automatic pattern recognition--what we call intuition. I guarantee these techniques will take your readings to the next level. Bring your cards.
