Interview & Bio
Q. Lydia, what makes you love reading and connecting to spirit? A. I am compelled to do it. I feel that I was meant to share a message with the people who come to me for a reading. That and I feel that I was a reader and a medum in my past life. Q. What do you like to do outside of reading? A. I have a tremendous love of horses and hope to own and board a horse one day.
When Lydia was ten years old her parents sent her to Prague to visit relatives. She was bored so her aunt pulled out a deck that belonged to her great grandmother. She told Lydia the story of how her Great Grandmother read tarot cards when she traveled from Prague to Berlin to bring back her estranged husband. (She had 3 daughters in tow). Lydia was fascinated by these cards completely and would spend hours and hours trying to learn them and use them. When she came back to Canada she searched for a deck, and it wasn't until she was 17 that she bought her own at the Occult shop. Her first deck was the Ryder Waite and she then set out to read for anyone and everyone who wanted their fortunes told.
Her mother was into Astrology and Lydia picked up an interest in that from her. She know writes a monthly Astrology column as well as manages a popular on-line psychic readings company.
While growing up Lydia also went on ghost hunting trips with her friends - checking out haunted houses and discovered she had a natural connection to spirits who wanted to talk to her. By her mid thirties, she started working at the Gypsy co-op reading for various clients from all walks of life -- from famous Lawyers to the average Jane and Joe.
At 3 of Cups Lydia uses a spectacular array of tools in her readings, provides 30-45 minute Sèances, and brings to you 25 reading years of experience.

Tarot
The Tarot is a collection of cards which contain an allegory / story of life milestones, mystical experience, archetypes, and more. Some Tarot decks have picture stories on all cards while others only have symbols similar to playing cards. In fact, many say that Tarot originates from games that used a playing deck. Tarot has it's physical origins and/or popularity in the Renaissance period (1400-1500's) and it re-emerged in popularity in the late 1800's and into the 1900's. Tarot is still wildly popular in the modern person's mind. When someone thinks of a Fortune Teller this is one of the tools that comes to mind of an old Gypsy lady reading the future. Tarot is useful for telling the story of a guests life from past, present, and future as well as past lives. TOP
Numerology
Have you ever wondered what your mission was in life? Numerology uses a guests birth date and/or name to divine all sorts of things such as career path, how you love and live, personality traits & behaviours, a past life, and why you were born. There are many forms of numerology from different parts of the world. Pythagoras brought numerology to the western world. TOP
Astrology
Did you know there were more than eight different astrologies like Chinese, Western, Arabic, Vedic, and Celtic? Astrology is most used in an event setting as a tool to analyze character and personality traits, advising on suitable careers, and best love matches just by knowing a guest's zodiac sun sign. However, some readers are able to either print up a full report or use a computer to delve more deeply into the area of guest interest. TOP
Psychic / Intuitive
The word or term Psychic is both an umbrella word for Psychics, Intuitive, Fortune tellers, Sooth-sayers, Seers, Diviners, Oracles, Gypsies Mystics, Spiritualists, Mediums, as well as by the tool a reader may use: Astrologist, Cartomancer, Coffee Grounds Reader, Crystal Ball Reader, Face Reader, Handwriting Analyst, Numerologist, Palm Reader, Tarot Reader, Tea Leaf Reader. However, Psychic also means (and perhaps is reflective of the most accurate use of the term) the abiltiy to use a normal sense to a heightened degree and in unusual ways.
Sight = Clairvoyance, Feeling/Touch = Clairsentience, Hearing = Clairaudient, Knowing = Claircognizance, Tasting = Clairgustance, and Smelling = Clairalience.
Many times people will use Clairvoyance as that tends to be the most understood psychic sense -- probably because it appears to be the most dramatic. However, any psychic sense used well makes not one sense better than the other. The psychic part in our company name 3 of Cups Psychic Event Entertainment is reflective of the umbrella term and most popularly understood meaning of the word psychic though it's not the most accurate term as just read.
“Intuition is a combination of historical (empirical) data, deep and heightened observation, and an ability to cut through the thickness of surface reality. Intuition is like a slow motion machine that captures data instantaneously and hits you like a ton of bricks. Intuition is a knowing, a sensing that is beyond the conscious understanding — a gut feeling. Intuition is not pseudo-science.”
An Intuitive is quite a rational person. TOP
Runes
Runes are a set of symbols or alphabet that was often originally used in agriculture, for daily life messages, labelling, and more. Runes for divination usually comes in the forms of stones often made of wood, bark, leather, rock, wax, or gem and are tossed about to get assistance and messages. Runes originates as a Nordic and nature tool. TOP
Medium
A medium mainly connects with passed over loved ones. They can also connect with spirit guides, angels, and other entities beyond the veil to help a guest with a problem or issue. A psychic is not necessarily a medium and this is an important thing to know as there's often confusion about this. A medium's purpose is to confirm that there is life beyond the world we live in. TOP
Cartomancy
Cartomancy is similar to Tarot in that a) it uses cards and b) it's the minor or 56 card section of the Tarot. When someone thinks of a Fortune Teller this is one of the tools that comes to mind of an old Gypsy lady reading the future. Cartomancy usually uses a normal playing deck with the symbols of hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades; numbers, three court cards, and a Joker. There are no pictures on the cards except for the Joker. TOP
Palm
Palmistry looks at your guests whole hand or hands -- palm, fingers, fingerprints, markings, etc.. When someone thinks of a Fortune Teller this is one of the tools that comes to mind of an old Gypsy lady reading the future. Often the first place a palm reader will go to speak of babies, marriage, life, health, and career is to the hand. However, as with every tool palmistry to speak of a guests character, personality, behaviour, love life, career, finances, etc.. in the past, present, and/or future. TOP
Spiritual
Spiritual readings are similar to mediumship readings but can also include counseling guests on enjoying their life more or healing guests through various practices such as Buddhism, meditation, Reiki, medical intuition, and other methods. Spiritual readings can also use ancient wisdom tools to help guests find their higher self. TOP
Photos
While we like to dress in costume to add flair, fun, and magic to your event, we are not actors and do deliver accurate and enjoyable readings to your guests. These pictures will give you an idea of how we look so you can get comfortable with us; however, our in-person energy tends to sparkle more with warmth, care, and happiness because it's often hard to see in a photo or video spot. And finally, although we can wear a number of different costumes, fabrics, and colours, we can dress quite conservatively as well.

Hi Jasper, We had a fabulous time! From the moment our reader Lydia arrived we knew we were going to have a great time. She was warm, professional and very friendly - we felt as ease with her -. She was extremely accommodating -.. We enjoyed her so much that we were looking at booking a past life session with her in the future (can you send some information on this). As for both you and Juicy (sp?), I thank you both for shifting things around and being as accommodating as you were! Great memories were certainly had and here's to creating many more! Thank you again, Erin M. -- Surprise Tea Leaf Party
The readings were a great addition to our girls day...and the readers (Karima and Lydia) were very sensitive to the feelings of the guests. I would recommend for any size gathering...definitely gives guests something to talk about!! - Tina L., Girls Day Out Party
