With personalized heroic stories for every guest, I make sure that the people who see me feel confident and ready to take on the world when they leave my table.
I help guests
- Start new journeys and determine new opportunities.
- Establish inner balance and strength.
- Identify personal or creative blocks and how to work through them.
- Foster self-care and love.
- Create intimate conversations and connections.

May 19, 2019Great personality, prompt, responsive
She was so prompt and I love her being so easy to talk to, professional, always responsive and her vibe. She is kind, gentle and just good energy. I really would love to have her back for our event. She took part in a charity event and was very well mannered.

January 24, 2019Excellent Service
Calley has offered tarot at a variety of diverse Market Sister’s events around NYC and Upstate New York. She is a pleasure to work with and has received very positive feedback from our attendees. I’ve also had the opportunity to have Calley read for me and I appreciate her deep understanding of the cards and her ability to clearly and constructively convey their messages. I confidently recommend her to anyone interested in working with her!

December 17, 2018Extraordinary is Right
She was an absolute pleasure to have as an added element to my art show. The reviews from all involved were positive and loving; I was told that there were some pretty spot on references the others shouldn't be able to have known. I was told its all in the cards and I'm guessing they were right for more than a few of my guests.

What to expect
My readings at parties and special events are typically between 3 and 15 minutes long depending on the number of guests and the duration of the event. I have been hired to read for up to 8 hours.
Typically, I ask players if they have a question so I’m able to create a layout for their reading. Otherwise, I use the standard 10 card Celtic Cross tarot spread, and draw additional cards if needed.
I use an assortment of card decks and will choose the best decks for the event. If an event planner would like a specific deck, I will do my best to acquire it before the event (if I don’t have it already!)
Candles, signage, a table cloth, crystals and other curiosities can create added ambiance and let guests know that readings are available at your party. If you do not have these items on hand, I’m happy to bring props. Just ask.
Sometimes, a person who sits down with me may want more than their allotted reading time. I will have business cards on hand so people may book longer readings with me after the event. I also offer gift card packages for an additional cost if you would like to gift 30 minute readings to your guests.
About
Hello, I am Calley Nelson, the founder of Extraordinary Tarot. I have worked with household names like Shakeshack, Nike, Nordstrom, HBO, CNN, Warner Media and iHeart Radio.
I provide intuitive tarot consultations based on game theory, the hero’s narrative and a collective story. I specialize in bringing readings to private and public events to drive conversation beyond small talk and offer unique entertainment.
I have a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing; enabling me to use both practical and esoteric tools to weave a truly empowering story with an approach that is thought-provoking, universal yet unique.
I am a life-long clairvoyant with over 10 years experience reading Tarot. I combine my training in the arts with my intuitive knack to deliver sessions that are resonant and reassuring.
I bring my cards to corporate events, trade shows, craft fairs, private parties, bars and restaurants, in the greater NYC area and across the country.
Additional booking notes
Please allow for soft lighting so that guests can see the cards. I can bring candles if needed.
Tarot is best when played in a place away from excess noise. If a DJ or band will be present, consider hosting your reader in a separate room or schedule tarot readings before or after any musical performances.
A small table (at least 2’x2’) and two chairs is perfect for tarot. Please set up a spot in a corner or to the side so that those who wish to keep their readings private may do so.
