John Kriesfeld
Author • Tarot Reader • Musician • Sportsperson
John Kriesfeld is a Tatura-based writer and creative whose work moves between short fiction, music, Tarot, and the quiet disciplines of everyday life. A retired teacher and logistics manager, John brings a lifetime of observation, curiosity, and structure to his storytelling. Living in regional Victoria, he finds meaning in movement, craft, and the unseen, whether that takes the form of words on a page, music at the keyboard, or patterns emerging over time.




“As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being.”
Carl Jung
What the people say about John...
John’s insights always feel very genuine, considered, and relatable - never forced, always unfolding naturally. Time that is spent engaging with John’s work is time spent reconnecting with something essential and meaningful.
John brings a great depth of insight both as an author and Tarot reader. His writing reflects lived experience and careful observation, while his Tarot readings are intuitive and bring clarity. John helps people see possibilities and meaning.
John is an authentic and real Tarot reader. He doesn’t go for the simple explanation, or what he thinks you might want to hear, but rather delves deep into the meaning and psychology of each card and its placement within the reading. He looks deep into the story of each card and how it relates to your specific question or life query. He has clearly studied Carl Jung’s methods and brings that amazing insight into his reading. He quotes that he is not a fortune teller and won’t tell you what you want to hear, but rather what you need to hear. And if it is true guidance and healing you are seeking then this is paramount. If you are having a Tarot reading to gain insight and clarity, then I highly recommend John.
