Jadzia and Jay DeForest, a husband/wife team of tarot readers, started Portlandia Fortune Tellers in 2012, offering their services for private birthdays, anniversaries and other types of parties. They were soon discovered by corporate event planners and began getting several bookings each month as word spread about how much guests were enjoying their visit with the “fortune tellers”. Since then, the DeForests have reached out to other highly experienced readers to form a team of professional, fun-loving people who enjoy helping to make parties and events interesting and memorable for our clients.
For public or private events such as birthdays, holiday or corporate parties, we can work with whatever theme you have in mind such as Classic Fortune Teller, Pirate, Steampunk, Professional, Holiday, Era Specific (1920s, 1930s, 1940s), or Carnival motifs. We can provide costumes and decor to make the “Fortune Teller’s” corner a beautiful and mood enhancing addition to your affair. Some of the settings where you may have encountered us include: Shrewsbury Renaissance Fair, Vampire’s Masquerade Ball, Sherwood Fantasy Fair, McMenamin’s Fair in the Grove, Brew and BBQ Festivals, Portland Women’s Expo, and OryCon.

Jay DeForest ~ Tarot, NORSE Rune Readings
Using the Futhark Runes or Tarot Cards, Jay offers readings to help gain information and clarity to many aspects of life including family, relationships, career and personal quests. Many people are surprised to find how much insight they can achieve with these forms of divination.
Nearly all systems of divination operate on the principle of using familiar concepts to trigger associations with information that is present, but for the moment, is unclear or hidden from us. Rune and Tarot readings draw the information out into the open by presenting us with symbols that relate to the situation at hand. Each card or rune stone has specific correspondences which help to focus our intuition and awareness on relevant aspects of the situation. With a clear intent to arrive at the truth, we can discover answers that had previously been waiting beneath the surface. With over 30 years of experience, this is what Jay provides in his readings.
