As the year draws to a close, a seasoned fortune teller in Cebu City is looking ahead with an optimistic forecast. Luzviminda Noel, a veteran tarot and palm reader, predicts that 2026 will be a year marked by widespread success and notable political shifts.
A Lifetime of Reading Signs
Now 64 years old, Luzviminda Noel has spent an impressive 49 years interpreting tarot cards and palm lines. She first discovered her craft as a teenager in Manila at the age of 15. For the past quarter-century, she has called Cebu home, where she practices her art alongside her younger sister. Their familiar spot is a sidewalk along the bustling Magallanes Street, where they offer guidance on life's pressing questions about love, career, business, and health.
Bright Forecast for the Coming Year
Sharing her predictions for 2026 with SunStar Cebu, Noel painted a largely positive picture. She emphasized that the new year will be filled with successful people. In a significant reassurance, she stated that her readings do not indicate any major disasters on the horizon for 2026.
Her insights extend into the political arena, where she foresees a significant change. According to Noel, a prominent political figure will be gone by the middle of the year. For Cebuanos, she brings good news regarding the island's most famous festival, predicting a successful Sinulog Festival in 2026.
The Practice and the Person
For each personalized session, Luzviminda charges P200. She uniquely combines both tarot card spreads and palmistry to provide a comprehensive reading for her clients. She believes this practice, which requires deep concentration and solitude, is a calling. Luzviminda, who has never married, has dedicated her life to this craft. Her enduring popularity, even after decades, demonstrates a lasting public fascination with seeking direction and clarity through these ancient arts.
Her message from the cards for everyone entering 2026 is one of adaptation. She advises people to adjust to one another, suggesting that this mutual understanding will pave the way for a more successful and harmonious year.
