able tipping; or “table tilting” was made popular in the Victorian Age throughout Europe and the U.S. as a form of physical mediumship seance. It is a lost art that fell out of favor as the Spiritualist Movement was heavily scrutinized by the likes of Harry Houdini and others. Recently Table Tipping has experienced a resurgence to bring it back as a legitimate form of physical mediumship.
Tori started training in Tarot at age 12, and has been tipping since 2009 to help people ease their grief and forward messages of love and light from their loved ones, guides and Ascended Masters. She offers in-person and phone tarot readings and is available for in-person Past-Life regression, relaxation, stop smoking, and weight loss hypnosis. Tori also offers Tarot parties as well as group and private table tipping seances. For more information, please visit WWW.AvalonEnchanted.Com.
