The First Tarot DecK
Richard Knight was five years old when he first held a pack of Tarot cards in his hands.
He was given them as a gift, but never taught the meanings. This would become a blessing.
Richard, a quiet boy, started using the cards intuitively to interpret the world around him. He would later come to understand that he was an Indigo Child.
His lifelong quest to understand the power and energy of Tarot began just three years later, at age 8, whilst finally seeing the cards being used as they were supposed to be. Not from anyone around him, but from a movie scene in Live and Let Die, a James Bond classic.
A Near-Death Experience
At 11 years old, Richard nearly drowned. He remembers seeing a tunnel of light and lots of other mystical phenomena. This profound spiritual experience amplified his growing psychic abilities to strange new heights.
The near-death experience changed him so much that it set the course for the rest of his life. He would dedicate everything to mastering the psychic arts.
The Freaks
From his mid-teens to his early 20s, Richard worked with several agencies interested in researching paranormal abilities in gifted people. These agencies were particularly interested in seeing how these unusual abilities could be applied practically.
He worked alongside two other young people, and they called themselves “The Freaks”.
They regularly took part in psychokinetic and remote viewing experiments.
It was during this time that Richard’s reputation as a psychic exploded. Celebrities hunted him down for readings, and the media brought him into multiple projects as a consultant.
Enough is Enough
This all came to a sudden halt a few years later. Richard had become burnt out due to the constant demand for his unusual and spookily accurate abilities. He refers to this as his “spiritual breakdown”.
Richard decided to take a year off and retreated to a remote cottage in Northern Scotland.
Here, he spent much of his time meditating and contemplating the true purpose of his gifts.
His insights led him to define a new path, based on helping people to heal. He vowed never to ‘entertain’ others with his unique gifts again.
The Maverick Emerges
For the next 20 years, Richard developed new approaches that would best help his clients. Often these conflicted with the traditional approach to Tarot and he faced much criticism.
But his groundbreaking insights worked, and Richard travelled the world, teaching, demonstrating, and working with a long list of clients.
80,000 Readings Later
Richard realised that it was time for the Tarot to be taken seriously and used as a tool to impact the whole world positively. He decided to teach his revolutionary techniques to a new wave of modern intuitives.
He stopped doing personal readings in 2020 and put all of his energy into sharing this knowledge.
Now, every year, thousands of people the world over are becoming modern Tarot masters, through Richards Masterclasses, Academies and live events.
At Home
Richard enjoys the theatre, especially musical theatre, and visiting theme parks with his family - though you’re more likely to find him relaxing with a coffee than on any rides. He would tell you he doesn’t like chocolate but has a secret love for Nutella. Richard adores travelling, and has currently visited Disneyland Paris over 30 times.

Having participated in a couple of events hosted by Richard Knight, I can genuinely attest to their transformative impact. I've absorbed significant insights, expanded my knowledge, and met an incredible community. Richard possesses extensive expertise in tarot, psychic development, clairvoyance, and healing, which he shares with humility and a practical outlook. What resonates most with me is his ability to relate these teachings to everyday life, making them approachable, understandable, and easy to implement. I'm also a member of his Psychic & Tarot Academy, where I continue to learn through live sessions and engage with a supportive network. The wisdom I've acquired has sparked my own new venture, for which I am profoundly thankful. I wholeheartedly endorse Richard's courses and events—they have genuinely changed my life.

Dan was the lead instructor on my Bi-Aura bio-energy diploma course. The depth of his knowledge and his passion for all things related to healing and self-development were awe-inspiring; his delivery of the curriculum made for a fascinating and insightful experience. I would highly recommend any of his courses or programs and hope to collaborate with him in the very near future.

I’ve attended two of Richard Knight’s events and can honestly say they’ve been transformative. I’ve gained valuable insights, learned so much, and connected with an amazing community. Richard’s knowledge and experience in tarot, psychic development, clairvoyance, and healing is vast, and he shares it with such humility and a down-to-earth approach. What I love most is how he grounds these teachings in the real world, making them accessible, demystified, and easy to apply. I’m also part of his Psychic & Tarot Academy, where I continue to learn through live sessions and connect with a supportive community.The wisdom I’ve gained has been a catalyst for my own new venture, and I’m deeply grateful. I cannot recommend Richard’s courses and events highly enough—they’ve truly been life-changing.

Richard Knight is one of the most honest, dedicated teachers I have met in the psychic community. He is a gifted psychic who really wants to raise his students' consciousness, send them out into the world and enable them to be in service in the most profound way. He shares everything he knows. You can find support and help on everything, mediumship, energy healing, dowsing, angelic communication, psychometry, how you can set up your own business..... and he is continually adding new knowledge. He is always there when you need him. He has attracted an amazing group of like minded people where you can find support, love, additional knowledge... everything…

I was blown away by the day. And have spent time reflecting on the issues Richard discussed, clarified, simplified and myth busted. For me, Richard brought together all my past learning and knowledge I thought I'd long forgotten. I ended the day on a high! I felt spiritually lifted, energised and highly motivated to go forward and begin to practice the skills until I feel confident to begin my own journey toward helping others.
