  We’re moving from the spark of Aries into something slower, steadier, and more rooted. Taurus asks us to build, to tend, and to value what we’re creating—not just externally, but internally too. 

  
  

  In this episode, I'll walk you through Taurus season... how it shows up astrologically, how it connects to tarot, and what it invites us to explore in our lives.

  What I Explore in This Episode

  • The energy of Taurus season and what it represents in the zodiac

  • Taurus associations with tarot: The Hierophant and The Empress

  • Court card and minor arcana connections (King of Pentacles  5–7 of Pentacles)

  Taurus Season: The Zodiac

  For me, Taurus season feels like a return to the body. This is the second sign of the zodiac, and where Aries initiates, Taurus maintains.

  
  

  To the earth. To slowness. To ask, what actually matters here?

  
  

  Taurus is a fixed earth sign ruled by Venus. It’s deeply connected to:

  • stability

  • comfort

  • values

  • money and possessions

  • and what we consider meaningful or worth keeping

  Taurus Season: Major Arcana

  In tarot, Taurus connects most strongly to The Hierophant and The Empress.

  
  

  The Hierophant represents structure, tradition, and spiritual guidance. It’s about the systems we trust, the beliefs we inherit, and the ways we create meaning through ritual and repetition.

  
  

  The Empress, ruled by Venus, brings in the energy of nurturing, beauty, and creation. She reminds me that growth doesn’t come from force—it comes from tending, receiving, and allowing.

  
  

  Together, these two cards feel like:

  • structure + softness

  • devotion + pleasure

  • discipline + care

  Taurus Season: Court Cards

  When I look at Taurus through the lens of tarot’s court cards, I start with the King of Pentacles. This energy is grounded, reliable, and deeply rooted in the material world. It’s about building something sustainable.

  
  

  As the season progresses, we begin to shift toward the Knight of Swords, hinting at the upcoming transition into Gemini season. So even within Taurus, there’s movement—from grounded embodiment into mental momentum.

  Taurus Season: Minor Arcana

  In the minor arcana, Taurus aligns with the Five, Six, and Seven of Pentacles.

  
  

  All of these cards revolve around:

  • resources

  • effort

  • patience

  • and long-term investment

  
  

  They ask me to consider:

  • What am I building?

  • What am I investing in?

  • And is it actually aligned with my values?

  💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

  For this episode’s pull, I used The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington and got Six of Pentacles (Reversed).

  This card is all about giving, receiving, and energetic fairness. In the upright, there’s balance, energy flowing both ways. But in reverse, something is off. 

  Reflection Prompts

  • Where am I over-giving in my life right now?

  • Where am I resisting receiving support or care?

  • What do I actually value and am I honoring that?

  • What would balance look like for me right now?

  Together, we explore how tarot can support us in moments of burnout, uncertainty, and transition—and how it can gently guide us back to our own inner wisdom.

  What We Explore in This Episode

  • A shared tarot pull exploring burnout, energy, and new opportunities

  • How we use tarot as a reflective and intuitive tool

  • The difference between intuition and anxiety

  • Queer identity, joy as resistance, and healing in community

  • Building affirming, magical spaces like the Queer Joy Coven

  As a queer practitioner, Colette is especially passionate about creating affirming, expansive spaces where people can explore identity, healing, and self-expression without pressure to conform.

  Tarot in the Therapy Room

  A big part of our conversation centers around something I know a lot of people struggle with: How do I tell the difference between intuition and anxiety?

  Intuition tends to feel grounded. It’s often quieter, more embodied, like a steady knowing or a clear nudge.

  Anxiety, on the other hand, feels fast, spiraling, and overwhelming. It lives more in my head, while intuition feels like it comes from somewhere deeper.

  From there, we expand into community, identity, and healing.

  Colette shares about creating the Queer Joy Coven, and we talk about how joy itself can be an act of resistance, especially for queer and marginalized folks.

  Something that really stays with me from this conversation is the idea that: Joy isn’t separate from healing. It’s part of it. And community—safe, affirming, values-aligned community—is often where that healing becomes possible.

  Tarot Pull from the Episode

  Colette’s Pull for Camille - ⁠⁠Page of ]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846370 75fcf690-4e1b-4040-9b2b-ded7ca1ceadd 5019 full 22 22 2 2 false Tue, 14 Apr 2026 00:15:41 GMT Step into April with intention, reflection, and intuitive clarity. I guide you through a 9-card month-ahead tarot spread, exploring themes of emotional processing, uncertainty, healing, and what it means to move forward when things don’t go as planned. This reading invites us to soften into the unknown and trust the unfolding.

  What We Explore in This Episode:

  • A 9-card tarot spread for April 2026 (By Incandescent Tarot)

  • Themes of imbalance, emotional processing, and creative uncertainty

  • The tension between control and surrender

  • Healing, release, and what it means to begin again

  The Energy of April: Between Balance and Disruption

  April opens with a powerful contrast.

  We begin with Temperance as the current self—an invitation toward balance, patience, and inner peace. And yet, this grounded energy sits beside The Lovers (reversed) as the theme of the month, pointing to disharmony, misalignment, or breakdowns in connection.

  
  

  Sometimes we seek balance because things feel off.

  
  

  This month may bring moments where things don’t quite click—relationships, decisions, or even your sense of direction. Rather than rushing to fix it, this spread gently encourages you to stay present with the imbalance and let clarity emerge over time.

  Creative Uncertainty, Emotional Depth, and Letting Go:

  At the heart of this reading is a deep emotional and creative reckoning.

  
  

  With both the Page of Cups (reversed) and Page of Wands (reversed) appearing, there’s a sense of:

  • creative blocks

  • lack of direction

  • or feeling disconnected from your usual spark

  
  

  This isn’t failure, but a transition point.

  
  

  You may be moving out of an identity, a long-term goal, or a version of yourself that no longer fits. That in-between space can feel disorienting, especially if you’re used to having a clear path forward.

  
  

  And yet, there is healing here.

  
  

  The Three of Swords (reversed) shows that something is softening. Pain is being processed. Old wounds are beginning to release. 

  
  

  At the same time, you’re asked to:

  • Avoid unnecessary conflict (Five of Swords)

  • Feel your emotions fully, even the uncomfortable ones (Ace of Cups reversed)

  This is a month of emotional honesty. Not perfection. Not clarity. Just truth.

  
  

  Symbolism in the Cards

  • Temperance - Balance, patience, emotional regulation

  • The Lovers (Reversed) - Misalignment, disharmony, relationship tension

  • Page of Cups (Reversed) - Creative blocks, emotional immaturity, escapism

  • Page of Wands (Reversed) - Lack of direction, stalled inspiration

  • Three of Swords (Reversed) - Healing, release, emotional recovery

  • Five of Swords - Conflict, tension, choosing your battles wisely

  • Ace of Cups (Reversed) - Emotional overwhelm, blocked feelings, inner work

  • Seven of Pentacles (Reversed) - Re-evaluation, wasted effort, misaligned priorities

  • Ten of Swords - Endings, rock bottom, release, transformation

  💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

  For this episode’s pull, I used my Anima Mundi Tarot Deck by Megan Wyreweden and got the Queen of Cups (Reversed).

  The Queen of Cups reversed speaks to emotional insecurity, bottled-up feelings, over-attunement to others, and the exhaustion that can come from carrying too much that does not belong to you. 

  This card is an invitation to come back to yourself.

  To tend to your own emotional world with care.

It carries initiator energy, fiery momentum, boldness, leadership, and the courage to move first. If Pisces season helped us dissolve, dream, grieve, and reflect, Aries season asks us to begin again.

  Tune in as I talk about the tarot cards connected to Aries season, along with a final oracle pull to help guide us into this new astrological cycle.

  If you’ve been feeling the urge to act, lead, create, or push forward, this one is for you!

  What We Explore in This Episode:

  • The astrological themes of Aries season

  • Why Aries is associated with the first house, Mars, and fire

  • The major arcana cards connected to Aries: The Emperor and The Tower

  • The court cards and minor arcana associated with Aries season

  • What it means to move from the watery ending of Pisces into the fiery beginning of Aries

  What Aries Season Means in Tarot & AstrologyAries is the first sign of the zodiac, which makes it the spark, the initiator, and the force that gets things moving. It is associated with:

  • The 1st House - selfhood, physical appearance, first impressions, how we enter the world

  • Mars - energy, drive, action, courage, conflict, progression

  • Fire - passion, vitality, instinct, momentum

  • The Ram - leadership, boldness, determination, charging forward

  Aries season in 2026 runs from March 20 through April 19.

  Major Arcana for Aries Season

  The Emperor - Aries is associated with The Emperor, the card of leadership, structure, direction, and authority.

  The Tower - Mars, Aries’ ruling planet, is associated with The Tower.

  In Aries season, The Tower can remind us that sometimes action begins after collapse. Sometimes the beginning only comes once the old thing has fallen away.

  Court Card Energy for Aries Season

  Queen of Wands - The first stretch of Aries season carries the energy of the Queen of Wands, which feels very fitting.

  King of Pentacles - As Aries season moves toward Taurus season, we begin to feel the more grounded influence of the King of Pentacles.

  Minor Arcana for Pisces Season

  Two of Wands | 3/20 - 3/30A card of vision, planning, and looking ahead.

  Three of Wands | 3/31 - 4/10

  This card expands on that initial vision and asks us to trust what we’re building.

  
  

  Four of Wands | 4/11 - 4/19

  The final stretch of Aries season is associated with the Four of Wands, which softens the fire slightly and begins to prepare us for Taurus season.

  Why Aries Season MattersAries season is not subtle. It’s the push to begin. It’s the first breath after winter. It’s the shift from dreaming to doing.

  If Pisces season was about surrender, intuition, endings, and emotional processing, Aries season asks: Now what are you going to do with all of that?

  • What is ready to be born?

  • What deserves your fire?

  • What are you finally willing to begin?

  💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

  For this episode’s pull, I used The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright and got The Guide - Inheritance and Correction.

  This card speaks to accepting the situation in front of you, even if it isn’t ideal, and doing what needs to be done to move through it with clarity and strength.

  This felt like such a powerful Aries season message.

She works with teens and adults across the lifespan, offers gender-affirming care, and brings warmth, grounded-ness, and spiritual openness into her work.You can learn more about Christine here:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInChristine and I explore what happens when therapy and tarot intersect—from using oracle cards in sessions to supporting clients in reconnecting with their intuition. We also talk about the evolving role of spirituality, energy work, and holistic practices within mental health care.What We Explore in This EpisodeHow Christine’s path into therapy evolved through mentorship and intuitionUsing tarot and oracle cards as reflective tools in therapy sessionsWhy intuition and symbolism can support emotional insightThe importance of normalizing conversations about spirituality, sexuality, and identity in therapyWorking with clients through collaboration, co-creation, and intuitive guidanceTarot in the Therapy RoomChristine shares that she began using cards more intentionally with clients after going into private practice. Having more freedom in her work allowed her to trust her instincts and offer tools that might help clients reflect in a different way.Sometimes tarot or oracle cards become:a mirrora validationa new perspectivea way to put language to something that feels hard to nameI really appreciated hearing how she introduces the cards gently, without pressure, and lets clients decide whether they want to engage with them.Because that’s the thing: tarot doesn’t have to be dramatic to be meaningful. It can simply be a doorway into deeper reflection.Therapy, Energy, and the Collective MomentBecause of when we recorded this episode, we also talk a little about the energetic intensity of the moment, including the full moon and lunar eclipse energy that was building at the time.Christine and I both reflect on how people are often carrying not only their own personal stress, grief, and overwhelm, but also collective energy. Sometimes what we’re feeling is personal. Sometimes it’s ancestral. Sometimes it’s societal. Sometimes it’s all of those things at once.And in therapy, it can be so helpful to have language for that. Not to explain everything away, but to recognize that we are not isolated beings. We are impacted by systems, by cycles, by relationships, by the world around us.“Normal” Is Not the GoalOne of the parts of this conversation that really stayed with me was Christine sharing the tagline for her therapy practice:“Where normal is not the goal.”We talk about how many clients come into therapy asking, “Is this normal?” And honestly, it makes so much sense. So many of us have been taught that the goal is to be acceptable, manageable, understandable, and easy to explain.Christine’s Tarot Pull for CamilleGolden Orange Dragon from the Dragon OracleThemes:stepping forward on your pathrecognizing your own powerembracing your role as a guide or teacherCamille’s Tarot Pull for ChristineFive of Chilies (Five of Wands) from Desert Illuminations TarotThemes:conflict and tensionlearning when to step backchoosing calm over escalation

  What We Explore in This Episode:

  • Why is the Pisces season the most liminal part of the zodiac year

  • The tarot archetypes tied to Pisces: The Moon + The Hanged Man

  • Pisces court card energy: Knight of Cups and the shift toward Queen of Wands

  • Cups-season themes: Eight, Nine, Ten of Cups and what they teach us about emotional endings and renewal

  • How to move from dreamy, mutable Pisces energy into grounded intention and supportive structure

  Spring Equinox Mini RetreatBefore we get into the cards, a quick invitation: Izzy (my colleague) and I are hosting a 3-hour online Spring Equinox Mini Retreat.

  Saturday, March 21 | 12–3 PM Pacific Time

  Join us for a warm, luxurious mini retreat where you can exhale, reflect, and step into the new astrological year with support.

  What Pisces Season Means in Tarot & AstrologyPisces season (for 2026) runs February 18 – March 20, with Aries season beginning March 21—the Spring Equinox and the energetic “reset” that kicks off the astrological year.

  Pisces is often called the Visionary. It’s mutable water, ruled by Neptune, and associated with the 12th house—dreams, mysticism, psychic sensitivity, hidden places, deep emotions, and the parts of ourselves we don’t always have language for yet.

  Major Arcana for Pisces Season

  The Moon (Pisces)

  Pisces is traditionally linked with The Moon—a card of intuition, mystery, cycles, emotional truth, and shadow. 

  The Moon reminds us that clarity doesn’t always arrive as a direct answer. Sometimes it arrives as a feeling. A dream. A repeated theme. A body-based “no.” A soft, persistent “yes.”

  The Hanged Man (Neptune)

  Since Pisces is ruled by Neptune, we also look to The Hanged Man—a card of surrender, suspension, altered perspective, spiritual downloads, and “pause long enough to let the truth find you.”

  Court Card Energy for Pisces Season

  Knight of Cups

  This is the poetic, romantic, emotionally led part of Pisces season. Think 'following the heart, listening to intuition, letting beauty and meaning guide you. The Knight of Cups can be a messenger from the subconscious: “Let yourself be moved.”

  Queen of Wands

  As we get closer to the Equinox, the energy starts turning: water gives way to fire. The Queen of Wands reminds us that the dream is not enough—you also get to choose, create, and take up space.

  
  

  Minor Arcana for Pisces SeasonPisces season aligns with the emotional arc of the Cups:

  • Eight of Cups (Feb 19-28 | Saturn): leaving what’s emotionally complete, even if it’s familiar

  • Nine of Cups (March 1-10 | Jupiter): satisfaction, pleasure, receiving, letting yourself want what you want

  • Ten of Cups (March 11-20 | Mars): emotional fulfillment, connection, shared joy, belonging

  💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

  For this episode’s pull, I used The Herb Crafters Tarot:

  Two of Water - Malo (Marshmallow)

  A gentle invitation to let love in. To soften what has gone dry from survival. This card speaks to that which renews you instead of consuming you.

I’m your host Camille A. Saunders—healer, intuitive tarot reader, and professional witch—and this week, I’m sharing a Month Ahead spread for March 2026.

  What We Explore in This Episode:

  • A Month Ahead spread for March 2026

  • The main developmental theme shaping the month

• • The best mental/emotional attitude to cultivate
  • Action advice for moving through March with confidence

• 
  

  The Spread I Used: ⁠Month Ahead Spread by Angelorum Tarot

This spread is from Angelorum Tarot, and the format is intentionally structured: we pull one Major Arcana, one Court card, and one Minor Arcana—not by separating the deck, but by flipping through the cards until each type appears. It's a simple, versatile spread you can reuse at the start of any month when you want clarity, direction, and a little energetic anchoring.

• Card 1 - Major Arcana 

Main developmental theme for the month ahead

• Card 2 - Court Card

Best mental attitude to cultivate

• Card 3 - Minor Arcana

Action advice for the month ahead

I used the Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams, and then I pulled a clarifier from Anima Mundi Tarot by Megan Wyreweden.




From The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams, I pulled The Emperor, Queen of Jugs, and Three of Chilies.

Card 1: Major Arcana | The Emperor - Main Developmental Theme

March’s big theme is structure, leadership, focus, and follow-through. It’s not about controlling everything, it’s about creating a strong enough foundation that your plans can actually hold weight.

This card asks: "Where are you being called to get more organized? More strategic? More committed to what you’re building?"

Keywords: leadership, boundaries, stability, strategy, grounded power




Card 2: Court Card | Queen of Jugs (Queen of Cups) - Best Mental Attitude to Cultivate

For the mindset of March, I pulled Queen of Jugs (this deck’s version of the Queen of Cups), and she came through as a clear message:

"Trust your intuition. Trust your emotional maturity. You don’t have to force anything into being. You can stay grounded in your body and lead with your heart at the same time."

This card means quiet confidence, the kind that doesn’t need to prove itself, because it already knows.

In the deck, she’s inspired by Annie Oakley, and I love that symbolism here, because March isn’t just about having a plan (Emperor)… It’s also about believing you can hit the target.

Keywords: intuition, emotional steadiness, inner wisdom, grounded confidence, heart-led clarity




Card 3: Minor Arcana | Three of Chilies (Three of Wands) - Action Advice

For action, I pulled the Three of Chilies, this deck’s version of the Three of Wands. This is movement energy, the moment where you stop preparing forever and begin stepping through the doorway.

The message here is: Plan for the future, then go… not with perfect certainty, but with a grounded start and an open mind.

This card can also literally point to travel, or expanding your world in a way that gives you perspective and momentum.

The Big Takeaway for March

March is giving: structured confidence + intuitive leadership + bold forward movement. You’re not being asked to “figure it all out.” You’re being asked to build the container, trust your inner knowing]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846377 f0d94ccf-c95f-4549-bf63-9b015f2fd427 1005 full 21 21 8 8 false Mon, 02 Mar 2026 23:01:54 GMT Tarot & Lilith: Reclaiming The Devil, Desire, and Divine Autonomy

Certain figures in mythology have been flattened into caricatures, and Lilith is one of them. Depending on who you ask, she is a demon, a seductress, a destroyer of infants, a night spirit, the first wife of Adam, or the embodiment of forbidden sexuality. But when you look deeper, when you peel back layers of patriarchal storytelling, Lilith becomes something else entirely—what emerges is not a villain, but divine autonomy.

In this exploration of Tarot and Lilith, I want to look at her through the lens of The Devil card, especially as she appears in The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck by Gabriela Herstik and illustrated by Julia Popescu. I also draw from The Woman’s Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets by Barbara G. Walker.




What We Explore in This Episode:

• Lilith as depicted in The Devil card in The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck

• Historical and mythological references to Lilith

• The demonization of feminine autonomy in patriarchal traditions

• The erotic divine feminine as creative, sovereign power

Lilith in The Devil Card

In The Goddess of Love Tarot, The Devil depicts Lilith with red wings, a serpent coiling around her body, a pentagram framing her presence, and blood drops falling from her wings. Her face is partially obscured by the snake—a powerful symbol of knowledge, temptation, and rebirth.

The Devil in tarot is often misunderstood. We are taught to see it as addiction, bondage, manipulation, or sin. And yes, those themes can appear, but at its core, The Devil asks:

• What are you attached to?

• Who benefits from your fear?

• What power have you handed away?

When Lilith inhabits The Devil archetype, the card shifts. It becomes less about shame and more about sovereignty.




The Demonization of Autonomy

Across myth and religious history, powerful women are often reframed as dangerous. Erotic women are labeled corrupting. Independent women are labeled chaotic. Creative women are labeled threatening.

Lilith becomes the archetype of what happens when a woman refuses control: mLilith did not submit, and that refusal disrupted hierarchy.

The Devil card asks us to look at where we have internalized similar narratives. 

• Where have we been told our desire is dangerous? 
• Where have we been taught that autonomy is selfish? 
• Where has erotic energy been severed from sacredness?




The Erotic Divine Feminine

Erotic energy is not just sexual expression; it is a creative force. It is the energy that births ideas, art, identity, resistance, and transformation. It is the life force that says, “I exist fully and on my own terms.”

In this light, The Devil is not merely temptation, but also a mirror that reveals where we have bound ourselves to expectations that are not ours. To worship at Lilith’s altar is to worship the totality of the self, your shadows included.




💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

From The Sasuraibito Tarot deck, I pulled The Star.

The Star reminds us that autonomy does not isolate us. It connects us to a larger field of possibility. Hope is not naïve, it's radical. And sometimes, the most rebellious thing we can do is believe in our own light.

Reflective prompts on this card:

]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846378 a48211e2-c25c-4150-9497-af570ad2cd09 1805 full 21 21 7 7 false Mon, 23 Feb 2026 18:55:02 GMT Aquarius season follows Capricorn’s discipline and structure. Where Capricorn asks us to commit and build, Aquarius asks deeper questions: What world are you building? Why? Who does it serve?




This season invites bold imagination, courageous questioning, and collective thinking.




In this episode, we explore Aquarius through tarot and astrology, focusing on The Star, The Fool, the King of Swords, the Knight of Cups, and the Swords cards linked to this point in the Wheel of the Year.




What We Explore:• Aquarius as the 11th House — social causes, long-term vision, collective care
• The Star and The Fool as Aquarian archetypes
• The Five, Six, and Seven of Swords in Aquarius season
• Revolution, rebellion, and discernment in community




Aquarius, symbolized by the Water Bearer, is actually an air sign. Its energy centers on intellect, ideas, innovation, and future-focused thinking. As a fixed air sign associated with the 11th House and ruled by Uranus, Aquarius carries themes of disruption, rebellion, and visionary change.




Aquarian energy often asks us to zoom out beyond the personal:

• What do we want together?
• What systems are shaping our lives?
• What future are we participating in?




In tarot, Aquarius corresponds with The Star — the card of hope, renewal, and faith in a brighter future. Even in uncertainty or exhaustion, The Star reminds us that healing and guidance remain available.




Aquarius’ modern ruler, Uranus, aligns with The Fool in tarot. The Fool represents radical beginnings, leaps of faith, and the courage to step into the unknown. Together, The Star and The Fool reflect quintessential Aquarius energy: hope + action, vision + disruption.




We also explore the balance between mind and heart through the King of Swords and Knight of Cups. The King of Swords embodies clarity, logic, and principled leadership, while the Knight of Cups carries imagination, intuition, and emotional vision. When paired, they highlight the integration of intellect and feeling.




Aquarius season also connects to three Swords cards:

Five of Swords (Venus in Aquarius | Jan 20–29)
Conflict, ideology, and the cost of “winning.”
Reflection: Is my approach aligned with my values?




Six of Swords (Mercury in Aquarius | Jan 30–Feb 8)Transition, mental shifts, moving toward calmer waters.Reflection: What am I ready to move on from?




Seven of Swords (Moon in Aquarius | Feb 9–18)Strategy, hidden motives, discernment.Reflection: What isn’t adding up?

Together, these cards reveal Aquarius’ dual nature: visionary yet analytical, rebellious yet thoughtful.




Today’s Tarot Pull:
From the Norse Goddess Rune Oracle by Rebecca Joy Stark, illustrated by Sharon McLeod:

Vör | Perfo Merkstave — Secrets, Hidden Truths, Risks (Upright)

This oracle reminds us that while Aquarius inspires revolution, discernment is essential. Not every call to action is aligned. Awareness, boundaries, and intuition are part of liberation.

Reflective prompts:• What future am I helping create?• Where do I need clearer boundaries?• Am I fighting for justice or for victory?• What systems do I want to dismantle or rebuild?• Where is my intuition guiding me?

I’m your host, Camille A. Saunders—healer, tarot reader, and professional witch.

  In this episode, I’m joined by Wren Morrow, an outdoor boudoir and erotic adventure photographer based in the Pacific Northwest. Ren guides individuals and couples through deeply embodied experiences in wild places, creating containers where people can soften, bloom, and reconnect with their bodies.

  Note: A major thread of this episode centers on boundaries💜

  What We Explore in This Episode:

  • Anxious attachment, inner child work, and self-abandonment

  • Boundaries as enforcement vs. boundaries as containers

  • Conflict, fawning, avoidance, and emotional regulation

  • Purity culture, deconstruction, and rediscovering spirituality

  • Photography as ritual, portal, and embodied magic

  About Our Guest: Wren Morrow is an outdoor boudoir and erotic adventure photographer based in the Pacific Northwest. Her work centers embodiment, consent, and mythic self-expression. 

  🔗 Website: wrenmorrow.com

  📷 Instagram: @wrenmorrow

  Wren describes her outdoor sessions as embodied adventures that bridge fantasy and reality. Nature becomes a collaborator, and the body becomes the bridge.

  She asks clients questions like:

  • If you were a goddess, what would you be the goddess of?

  • What element feels most alive to you?

  • What energy would enter a room when you do?

  She describes her creative energy as bloom-bringing. Helping people feel luminous. Leaving “fairy dust” in her wake through small, sparkling moments of connection.

  Opening the Conversation with Tarot

  We begin by pulling cards from the Goddess of Love Tarot, allowing the cards to set the tone for the discussion.

  Wren’s Card

  Seven of Cups (Reversed) - Associated with Venus in Scorpio, this card speaks to fantasy, limerence, and emotional projection. In reverse, it invites clarity, stepping out of illusion and into grounded awareness.

  Key themes:

  • Recognizing when compassion becomes self-erasure

  • Fantasy as both a gift and coping mechanism

  • Choosing clarity over illusion

  • Redirecting imaginative energy into art instead of attachment

  Reflection prompts:

  • Where am I getting lost in fantasy instead of reality?

  • What would it look like to choose myself first?

• • How can I channel imagination into creativity rather than attachment?

  Camille’s CardThe Sun (Reversed) - Pulled during the Pacific Northwest winter, this card mirrors the season perfectly. In reverse, The Sun reminds us that light still exists even when it’s obscured.

Key themes:

• Wonder and play as healing practices

• Trusting that light remains even in darker seasons

• Allowing rest instead of forcing productivity

• Reconnecting to childlike softness

Reflection prompts:

• Where am I being asked to rest instead of push?

• How can I invite wonder and play back into my life?

Attachment, Boundaries & Self-AbandonmentWren reflects on realizing that avoiding conflict can be a form of self-abandonment. Exploding later is often the result of not enforcing boundaries earlier. Together, they explore anxious and avoidant attachment dynamics, fawning responses, and how we often oscillate between over-accommodation and rigidity.




In her photography work, she holds energetic and physical space so clients can soften, unravel, and confront insecuritie]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846380 64785dea-5155-4015-9e84-e3f2272d2620 5374 full 21 21 5 5 false Mon, 09 Feb 2026 20:22:03 GMT In today’s episode, I’m sharing a self-love tarot spread to help you begin February with more tenderness, more truth, and more permission to be exactly where you are.

What We Explore in This Episode:

• A self-love tarot spread you can repeat anytime, especially in February

• How transformation can be a doorway for more love

• Compassion as emotional honesty (not fantasy or self-betrayal)

• • Pleasure, desire, and the sacredness of erotic energy
  • Trusting your magic in the material world (money, support, stability, worth)
    

• The Self-Love Tarot SpreadThis spread comes from an article on HighTimes.com by Gabriela Herstik (published February 6, 2020) called “The High Priestess: Creating a Self Love Ritual for Valentine’s Day and Beyond.” 

The article includes a full ritual experience (including optional cannabis), plus journaling prompts, movement, baths, candles, and other ways to build a whole self-love container. 

In this episode, we focus on the tarot portion and treat it like a month-ahead self-love check-in for February.

I used a four-card layout (two cards on top, two on bottom):

1. Where can I welcome more love into my life?

2. How can I be more compassionate to myself?

3. How can I embrace my erotic nature and sexuality more?

4. How can I further embrace my magic?

For the spread, I’m using The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck. This deck is a devotional, erotic, divine-feminine portal in card form, and it feels perfect for February.

Return to this spread anytime you need grounding, reassurance, or a reminder that you’re allowed to grow gently.


The Cards Pulled

Card 1: Where can I welcome more love into my life?

Death (Kali / Chinnamasta)

Self-love takeaway:

• Let something complete.

• Bless the ending instead of resisting it.

• Welcome love by allowing a new chapter to actually begin.

  
  

Card 2 - How can I be more compassionate to myself?

Crone of Cups (Reversed)

Self-love takeaway:

• Listen to what your heart is actually saying.

• Release the “it should be different by now” narrative.

• Choose honesty over self-betrayal.

• If your inner knowing is waving a flag, trust it.




Card 3 - How can I embrace my erotic nature and sexuality more?

Witch of Cups (Upright)

Self-love takeaway:

• Lean into what turns you on and what softens you open.

• Pleasure is a spiritual practice, not something to earn.

• Let sensuality be playful, not performative.

Ideas for February: A bath, a massage, a slow skincare ritual, perfume, a cozy robe, a romantic playlist, a “take yourself on a date” night, anything that helps you feel safely inside your body.




Card 4 - How can I further embrace my magic?

Four of Pentacles (Upright)

This card connects magic to the material world. It points to the way the nervous system tightens when we fear there isn’t enough: love, money, safety, beauty, time, support.

Before expansion, the subconscious often contracts.

Self-love takeaway:

• Your magic grows when you practice trust, even in small ways.

• Make room for the upgrade.

• Turn the mundane]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846381 dfebb987-eb6e-4162-83d9-056d0692430f 1990 full 21 21 4 4 true Mon, 02 Feb 2026 19:21:59 GMT Today, I’m walking you through a Wheel of the Year spread from The Herb Crafters Tarot. This is a nine-card, year-ahead style spread that mirrors the turning of the seasons and helps you tune into the key energy of each sabbat.

  What We Explore in This Episode:

  • What a Wheel of the Year spread is and when to use it

  • How this spread maps onto the Pagan seasonal cycle

  • How to read seasonal “themes” instead of treating the year like one single fixed forecast

  Walking the Wheel: A Year Ahead with the Herb Crafters TarotLately, I’ve been craving a way to look at the year that doesn’t feel rigid, rushed, or overly predictive. Instead of asking, “What’s going to happen?” I wanted to ask, “What kind of energy am I moving with, season by season?”

  
  

  Note: All cards for the seasonal positions are from The Herb Crafters Tarot.

  
  

  1. Yule | Winter Solstice - The Hanged One (Burdock)

  Burdock is a deep-root plant, often found where the soil is depleted. It doesn’t rush. It goes down first, drawing nourishment from places that look barren.

  This card reminded me that winter isn’t about fixing or forcing. It’s about letting go of control and allowing slow change to do its work.

  2. Imbolc | Candlemas - Hija of Fire (California Poppy)

  The Hija of Fire, associated with California poppy, carries beginner energy. It’s playful, eager, and creative without needing permission.

  This card felt like a reminder that inspiration doesn’t need to be heavy or productive to be meaningful.

  3. Ostara | Spring Equinox - The Hermit (Usnea), Reversed

  Traditionally, the Hermit is about sacred solitude, but in reverse—especially at spring—it felt like emergence.

  This wasn’t a rejection of introspection, but a soft transition outward.

  4. Beltane | May Day - Three of Earth (Raspberry), Reversed

  Raspberry speaks to sweetness, collaboration, and abundance. In reverse, it felt like a question of capacity.

  As the world gets warmer, more invitations appear. More plans, more ideas, more people.

  5. Litha | Summer Solstice - Eight of Earth (Turmeric), Reversed

  Turmeric is a powerful, golden medicine associated with devotion, tradition, and long-term vitality.

  In reverse, the message felt like a caution: effort without care becomes depletion.

  6. Lughnasadh | Lammas - Nine of Earth (Apple), Reversed

  Apples are deeply tied to sustainability. When stored properly, they last well into winter. They teach long-term thinking.

  In reverse, this card felt like a reminder to check reciprocity.

  7. Mabon | Autumn Equinox - Five of Fire (Black Cohosh)

  Black cohosh is associated with deep bodily release and powerful change.

  This felt aligned with the season of recalibration.

  This card reminded me that flexibility and strength can coexist, and that transformation often requires active participation.

  8. Samhain | Hallows - The Moon (Datura), Reversed

  The Moon speaks to intuition, symbolism, and the unseen. Datura is potent and requires deep respect.

  At Samhain, I’m invited to approach mystery slowly, with humility and discernment, and to listen without demanding answers.

  9. Center Card - Ten of Fire (Comfrey)

  Prompt: What will keep me centered in the midst of change?

  Comfrey regenerates quickly after being cut back, but only if it’s allowed to rest. This card reminded me that pruning is not failure. It’s how sustainability happens.

  From 101eba16-9593-4874-a017-b4c4cf8edb98 2896 full 21 21 3 3 false Mon, 26 Jan 2026 20:44:10 GMT Welcome back to Everyday Tarot, where we explore how tarot can support your real, everyday life!

  In today’s episode, I’m talking about Tarot and Capricorn as we wrap up Capricorn season and reflect on what this energy can teach us about structure, ambition, boundaries, and the material world.

  What We Explore in This Episode:

  • Why I’m talking about Capricorn right now (Capricorn season timing + the “New Year energy” overlap)

  • Capricorn’s astrological associations (10th house, Saturn, work/rewards)

  • Capricorn’s Major Arcana correspondences (The Devil + The World)

  • Minor Arcana timing within Capricorn season (Pentacles progression)

  Capricorn Season: Structure, Limits, and What We’re Building:Capricorn season usually begins around the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. It arrives at a liminal moment, when the calendar asks us to look forward while the body and the land are still deep in winter.

  In this episode, I reflect on Capricorn season as a container for three overlapping themes:

  • Goal-setting and “New Year” momentum

  • Energy limits (winter as a season of boundaries)

  • Career and identity reflection: what we’re building, and why

  Capricorn season often carries a quiet tension. Culturally, we’re encouraged to set resolutions, push ahead, and reinvent ourselves. Seasonally, winter asks us to slow down, conserve energy, and work with realism instead of urgency. Capricorn sits right at that crossroad.

  At its core, Capricorn is associated with the structures that shape our public and professional lives. 

  In this episode, I name Capricorn’s key astrological correspondences.

  Tarot Correspondences for Capricorn:Capricorn season also has rich connections within the tarot, particularly through the Major Arcana.

  The Devil (Capricorn)

  The Devil is the Major Arcana card most closely associated with Capricorn. In tarot, The Devil often speaks to:

  • Temptation, attachment, and desire

  • Power dynamics and control

  • The material world (money, comfort, status, and security)

  • The question of whether something liberates us or quietly enslaves us

  Seen through a Capricorn lens, The Devil becomes a mirror rather than a warning. It asks honest questions:

  • What are we building toward?

  • What are we attached to, and why?

  • Where does ambition turn into a chain instead of a support?

  The World (Saturn)

  Saturn is linked with The World, one of my favorite tarot pairings to contemplate during winter. The World points to:

  • Completion and integration

  • Seeing the whole system, not just individual parts

  • Cycles, closure, and long-range planning

  • Limits that aren’t punishment, but physics: time, energy, capacity, and reality

  Through this lens, Saturn isn’t simply restrictive. Saturn says: "You are powerful, and you are finite. What will you do with what you have?" Capricorn season invites us to make peace with that truth instead of fighting it.

  Minor Arcana Timing Within Capricorn Season

  This season can be broken into smaller tarot windows associated with the Pentacles suit:

  • Two of Pentacles

  • Three of Pentacles

  • Four of Pentacles

  These cards reinforce Capricorn’s themes of money, effort, systems, collaboration, and stability. They remind us that what we build is rarely a solo effort, and that balance and sustainability matter just as much as ambition.

I’m in that early “pre-migraine” fog (the prodrome stage), and instead of pushing through like nothing’s happening, I’m choosing to talk about what tarot can look like when you’re sick, exhausted, or low on spoons.

  What You’ll Hear in This Episode

  This episode is about energy accommodations, nervous system kindness, and making tarot feel like support instead of another task. I also create a simple, on-the-spot 3-card “sick day spread,” then pull an additional card as a message from the body.

  • What “tarot on a sick day” can look like in real life (without pressure or performance)

  • My migraine accommodations (green light, migraine glasses, tea, temperature regulation, sensory supports)

  • A quick overview of spoon theory and how energy budgeting can change day to day

  • A simple 3-card spread you can use when you’re low energy

  Sick Day Supports I’m Using Today (Migraine + Low Energy)

  I share the tools I’m leaning on today to make this episode possible, including:

  • Green light (migraine-friendly lighting)

  • Migraine glasses (FL-41 style lenses; I mention my pair specifically)

  • Night mode / warmer screen settings

  • Peppermint + lavender aromatherapy

  • Ginger + lemon tea

  • Comfortable clothes

  • Cool air + an open window

  The “Low-Spoon Tarot” 3-Card Spread

  I make this spread up live, because that’s the whole point: it’s simple, flexible, and doesn’t require a ritual.

  1. What do I need to hear today?

  2: What do I need to keep in mind or focus on?

  3: What do I leave behind or not do today?

  My Pulls and their Messages

  *Seasons of the Witch Samhain Oracle

  Card 1 - Haunted

  Prompt: What do I need to hear today?

  This card speaks to what we’re carrying, what we’ve tucked away, and how the body sometimes brings something forward when we’re too tired to keep holding it down. On a sick day, this can feel like a reminder that I can’t “logic” my way out of what my body already knows. Something needs attention. Something needs honesty. Something needs care.

  My takeaway: If I’m feeling off, I don’t need to shame myself for it. I might need to listen more closely to what I’ve been brushing past, especially around pacing and energy limits.

  Card 2 - Mischief

  Prompt: What do I need to keep in mind or focus on?

  This surprised me in the best way. Mischief isn’t always about chaos. Sometimes it’s about cleverness, creativity, and choosing a softer workaround instead of forcing myself through a rigid plan. This episode itself is a “mischief” move: I didn’t have full energy, so I made the content reflect what’s real today.

  My takeaway: Be flexible. Be a little cheeky. Find the easiest available path. Let the day be imperfect and still meaningful.

  Card 3 - The Altar

  Prompt: What do I leave behind or not do today?

  The message here lands as: don’t turn this into a production. I can still connect spiritually without building a whole ritual. I don’t need to “earn” rest by making it sacred enough. 

  My takeaway: I don’t need a big ceremony today. Small counts. Quiet counts. Showing up gently counts.

  Today we’re celebrating the New Year and doing a 2026 spread together!

  
  

  Overall Messages for 2026

  • You can do anything, and you have to celebrate your wins along the way

  • It’s more than okay to ask for help, it’s necessary to work together

  • We can achieve more together than we ever can apart

  • Take risks, see what happens

  • Continue to commit to yourself, everyday

  • Celebrate yourself and your achievements

  • The path is laid out in front of you, now we just have to follow it and see where it goes

  
  

  To avoid any confusion- Last episode I pulled my own 6 cards to inform the tarot spread prompts for 2026. Today I am doing my own tarot spread and you can follow along or you can go ahead and pull your own cards related to the prompts I created. 

  Prompts:

  1. Where is your intuition leading you? Where should you throw caution to the wind?

  • 7 of Cactus (Pentacles)

  • You’re doing great

  • Keep doing it

  • Follow the path laid out in front of you

  • Don’t worry about it, things will come at the right time

  2. What is your greatest strength? How can you incorporate that this year?

  • Seven of Jugs (Cups) Reversed

  4. What gift can you give yourself?

  • Knight of Daggers (Swords) Reversed

  • It’s time to follow through on your passions

  • Don’t be afraid of failure, really there is no such thing as failure, there is trying and getting rejected, or trying and succeeding. But failure is about learning and boundaries, and risk. 

  • This card also says, take the risks, see what happens

  5. Where are you putting more effort into something than you’re getting back?

  • Three of Cactus (Pentacles)

  • Collaborate

  • No one else is going to do it for you, you’re the only one that can show up for yourself in that way

  Today I’m talking about the prompts I came up with and we’ll pull cards to share what we learned in 2025 

  
  

  If you’d rather do your tarot spread in your own time you can go to https://camille-a-saunders.kit.com/2025tarotspread and sign up for my newsletter where I will have a downloadable pdf with the 2025 tarot spread prompts for you! 

  
  

  To avoid any confusion- I pulled my own 5 cards to inform the tarot spread prompts for you. Today I am using the spread I created and pulling new cards utilizing the prompts to look back at what we learned in 2025.

  
  

  What we're talking about today:

  • Here are the prompts- 

  • 1. What are you refusing to see an alternative to? Where do you need to trust the process and allow for some flexibility in your usual ways?
    2. What are you feeling disillusioned by? What fears come up for you when you think about not getting what you want?
    3. Where do you need to step back for a moment to get the full picture? What are you forcing instead of slowing down and making a careful decision?
    4. What is something you might need to ask for help with
    5. What conflict do you need to take a break from for a bit? 
  • • Today I pulled cards for the spread from ⁠Seasons of the Witch Samhain Oracle⁠ to help guide the discussion of what we've learned in 2025.
    • I discuss the overall messages we've learned

    References:

  • • When I originally created these prompts I pulled the ideas from cards I pulled from The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck: A Book and Deck for Embodying The Erotic Divine Feminine by Gabriela Herstik and illustrated by Julia Popescu

  To avoid any confusion- I pulled my own 5 cards to inform the tarot spread prompts for you. And for this episode I'm reviewing the cards I pulled and what that looked like over 2025.

  
  

  All of the cards I pulled originally are in reverse, interesting. I usedThe Goddess of Love Tarot Deck: A Book and Deck for Embodying The Erotic Divine Feminine⁠. Created by ⁠Gabriela Herstik⁠ and ⁠illustrated by Julia Popescu⁠

  • The first card I pulled is The Hanged One- Reversed. This deck reimagines some of the cards to be more feminine or gender neutral so this is the card usually known as The Hanged Man.

  • The second card I pulled is the 10 of Pentacles Reversed. 10s are usually about completion of a cycle. The image on this card is very circular.

  • The third card I pulled is the Witch of Swords Reversed. This is another card that is reimagined and is usually called The Knight of Swords.

  • The fourth card I pulled is The Enchantress Reversed. This is another reimagined card and is usually known as The Magician. This is considered the first card of the major arcana with The Fool being considered the 0 card. Since this card is so close to The Fool it’s energy overlaps with it. This card asks you to let go of your ego.

  • The fifth and final card I pulled today was the 5 of Wands Reversed. Wands are activation energy. In this deck they often come across as erotic energy or the energy of orgasm. Something intense is happening here. You need to learn to look at the larger vision and lay out the path ahead of you before taking action.

  This is one of my newer decks, and the way I tend to learn a new deck is simple: I use it. Constantly. I pull cards for myself. I pull cards for the podcast. I live with it long enough that it starts to reveal what it’s actually good at—and what it isn’t trying to be.My Story with This Deck

  I found this deck at the Haunted Farmer’s Market in South Tacoma, which honestly feels like exactly the correct place to meet a deck like this. It has that “I found this in a liminal space on purpose” energy.

  I’ve also been in a phase lately where I’m really drawn to decks that teach me something—decks with their own structure, their own cultural roots, their own lore. And this one doesn’t just give you a message. It gives you a whole world.

  Style:

  Visually, this deck is striking—bold and dramatic without being chaotic. It’s matte, thick, and substantial in the hands.

  The edges are painted red, as a nod to the practice of “blooding” the runes—an old method of activating runes through blood as an offering and an infusion of power. It has its own complete divination system built around the Elder Futhark runes, with a Norse goddess assigned to each rune.

  Structure:

  What I love about the structure is that it’s a complete divination system without trying to “tarot-ify” itself. It stays faithful to runic wisdom, but still gives you a deck format you can shuffle, spread, and read.

  This is an oracle deck and it’s built around Elder Futhark runes and Norse goddess archetypes.

  There are 39 cards total:

  • cards for the runes themselves

  • plus cards for the Merkstave (the “dark staff” meanings—alternate/reversed rune meanings), which are included as their own separate cards to remove ambiguity

  If you don’t use Merkstave meanings, you can literally remove those cards and work with only the upright rune set.

  Imagery:

  On the front, the background feels like muted wood or carved texture—so your eye goes straight to the goddess imagery. Each card tends to show the goddess plus key symbols from her story, with the rune embedded into the visual field, so you’re learning the rune through repetition.

  What I use it for:

  I love using this in conversation with others, especially people who enjoy mythology, archetypes, witchcraft, or spiritual storytelling. It gives you so much to work with.

  I reach for this deck when I want:

  • a reading that feels mythic and archetypal

  • guidance that’s direct

  • a divination tool that feels seasonal

  • something that connects me to divine feminine power

  What I don’t use it for:

  This deck is powerful, but it asks you to engage. It rewards attention. And it’s not a “pull one card and move on” kind of deck—unless you’re okay with being haunted by the card all day (which I often am).

  I don’t usually reach for this deck when:

  • someone wants the familiar Rider–Waite–Smith structure

  • someone is brand new to divination

  • I need a very practical, straightforward “daily logistics” kind of answer

  • Someone doesn’t want mythology, unfamiliar names, or a guidebook-heavy experience

  💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

  From Norse Goddess Rune Oracle by Rebecca Joy Stark ]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846401 36cb3c52-edc5-4ca7-aecf-8df8c300bff9 1664 full 19 19 11 11 false Mon, 15 Dec 2025 20:12:27 GMT In this episode, I’m talking about a deck that lives right at the intersection of tarot, plant magic, and earth-based practice: The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, written by Latisha Guthrie with artwork by Joanna Powell Colbert. This deck doesn’t just show you plants, it invites you into a whole world of herb-craft, kitchen witchery, and ancestral plant relationships.

  My Story with This Deck

  This deck has been on my radar for a long time.

  Back in Season 11: Tarot and Plant Allies, I didn’t yet own a botanical tarot deck. I was constantly looking up plant correspondences online, and the Herbcrafter’s Tarot kept popping up in my research. I found myself returning to its imagery over and over as I prepared those episodes.

  I’d been searching for a plant-based tarot deck for years, but most of the ones I found either didn’t name the plants clearly or didn’t quite click with how I like to work. After leaning so heavily on Herbcrafter’s imagery for that season, I finally took the hint and bought the deck as a gift to myself.

  Style:

  This is a traditional tarot deck, but translated through an herbalist’s worldview. The vibe feels like standing in a kitchen with herbs hanging from the rafters, tea simmering, and baskets piled with plants from the garden. 

  Structure:

  The Herbcrafter’s Tarot follows the Rider–Waite–Smith structure in terms of card count, but it reimagines the suits and court cards through an herbal lens.

  Instead of the traditional suit names, the deck uses the elements:

  • Air (Swords)

  • Fire (Wands)

  • Water (Cups)

  • Earth (Pentacles)

  The guidebook also adds an extra layer that makes this deck feel like a full practice: each card has a short mantra-style line, an image description, a message, and crafting suggestions—ways to actually work with the plant through syrup, oxymel, jelly, teas, bath blends, or other forms of herb-craft.

  Imagery:

  The imagery is one of my favorite parts of this deck, because it doesn’t just show a plant floating in space. Sometimes the plant is wild in its natural environment. Sometimes it’s been harvested and laid out beside jars, spoons, bowls, candles, or baskets. Sometimes it’s shown as food or medicine. Every card gives you options for how to actually work with the plant—something you can make, infuse, steep, craft, or ritualize.

  What I use it for:

  I reach for this deck when:

  • plant ally work and earth-based spiritual practice

  • readings that focus on healing, nourishment, and slow transformation

  • situations where I want the next step to be tangible (something I can craft, brew, cook, or tend)

  • learning herbs through tarot, or learning tarot through herbs

  • ritual-based reflection—pulling a card and letting it become a week-long practice

  What I don’t use it for:

  I don’t reach for this deck when:

  • someone wants classic Rider–Waite–Smith imagery with people and familiar tarot scenes

  • a querent wants something very “straightforward tarot” without botanical symbolism

  • someone feels disconnected from plants, cooking, crafting, or nature-based metaphor

  • someone is from a context where these plants feel unfamiliar, and they want symbolism that’s more culturally immediate for them

  💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

  From The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, I pulled the Six of Fire Nasturtium (Reversed).

  Let yourself celebrate what you’ve done. Let your people celebrate you, too. Call the circle. Gather the joy. Let it count.

  Reflective prompts on this card:

  • What have I do]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846402 4478e244-232a-4dfe-ad8d-d64492a1850f 1943 full 19 19 10 10 false Fri, 12 Dec 2025 19:42:49 GMT Today, I’m talking about something a little different from tarot and oracle: It's Grow Time Deck by Chantelle Davis-Gray. This is a 48-card affirmation deck created specifically for do-good, feel-good business owners—and honestly, it’s one of the most practical decks in my collection.

    My Story with This Deck

    I got this deck directly from Chantelle during its early launch, and what made it extra special is that I already knew Chantelle through some shared community connections. We had done a virtual coffee date, and I later invited them onto the podcast, so this deck feels very relational for me.

    What I love most is that this is Chantelle’s first deck, and it was created from their own lived experience as a designer and business owner who supports other heart-centered entrepreneurs. It doesn’t feel generic or overly spiritualized—it feels grounded in real-life business rhythms, burnout, growth, fear, joy, and momentum.

    Since getting it, I’ve used it in my own business planning, in group settings with other business owners, and even as a gift for fellow entrepreneurs who also love tarot and oracle. It’s one of those decks that just fits into real life.

    Unlike tarot or most oracle systems, these categories are intentionally separated. It’s warm, friendly, motivational, and realistic in a way many oracle decks aren’t. The tone is compassionate but not fluffy. Every card either helps you feel good or do good, and both sides support sustainable business growth.

    Style:

    This is an affirmation and action deck, not tarot and not a traditional oracle. The energy is supportive, practical, encouraging, and grounded in everyday business realities. It’s about momentum, self-trust, care, and sustainability—not hustle at all costs.

    Structure:

    The deck has 48 cards, split into two types: Feel Good cards (affirmations) and Do Good cards (gentle action prompts). You can use them together or separately.

    Imagery:

    The aesthetic is bold, clean, and fun—hot pink, black, white text, and simple graphic symbols. It feels modern, playful, and affirming without being overly busy or symbolic.

    The backs of the cards alternate between:

    • Three hearts + “Feel Good”

    • Three stars + “Do Good”

    The front of the cards is either:

    • Pink for Feel Good

    • Black for Do Good

    What I use it for:

    This is a beautiful deck to bring into community spaces—retreats, coworking sessions, networking events, or even tabling at business-focused gatherings. It’s approachable, supportive, and easy for people who may be intimidated by tarot.

    It's one of my favorite decks to use when I’m:

    • navigating business overwhelm

    • feeling stuck or discouraged

    • planning my next steps

    • running group gatherings with other business owners

    • doing quarterly or seasonal business reflection

    • hosting networking or creative planning sessions

    What I don’t use it for:

    This deck is intentionally niche—it’s made for business owners, creators, and entrepreneurs. If someone is not connected to business or creative work, some of the prompts may not feel as relevant, though many are still universally affirming.

    I don’t reach for this deck when:

    • someone wants a traditional tarot reading

    • the question is deeply emotional, spiritual, or shadow-focused

    • I’m working with complex spreads or symbolism

    💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

    From It’s Grow Time deck by Chantelle Davis-Gray, I pulled Do Good: “Schedule a virtual coffee or tea chat.”

    This card is an invitation into connection, mom]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846403 a879f13e-1a38-45aa-bfd2-3be17f0b2250 760 full 19 19 9 9 false Thu, 11 Dec 2025 18:16:16 GMT Today, I’m talking about The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fenn Inkwright — an oracle-meets-storytelling deck built around a walled city, its people, and the roles they play. It’s part divination tool, part worldbuilding engine, and part love letter to fantasy and tabletop role-playing games.

    My Story with This Deck

    I found this deck while I was traveling, and I wasn’t even looking for an oracle deck at the time. I had gone into a bookstore hoping to find something botanical or nature-based, and instead, this deck practically insisted on being seen. The imagery stopped me in my tracks.

    At first glance, it felt theatrical. Dramatic. Heavy with story. And once I learned that the entire deck was structured around a walled city—the Citadel—made up of different social roles and districts, I was fully hooked.

    What surprised me most was that this deck didn’t feel soothing. It felt activating. Challenging even! Like it wanted to show me who I was becoming, beyond what I was feeling at the moment. 

    The Citadel is an oracle deck with a strong narrative flavor. The deck blends the energy of role-playing games, fantasy fiction, and divination.

    Style:

    Each card represents a role or archetype within the city. Instead of traditional tarot minors and majors, you’re stepping into a living setting: a fantasy citadel with its own politics, social structures, and tensions.

    The cards themselves are visually striking: black backgrounds, rich red linework, and metallic foil details (more copper-gold than bright yellow). The corners of each card are cut off, which sounds small but makes the deck feel distinct in the hand and surprisingly satisfying to shuffle.

    Structure:

    This is an oracle deck, not a tarot deck—but it still has a clear internal structure. The city of The Citadel is built in four concentric districts, each represented by a suit:

    • The Court is the heart of power, leadership, completion, and responsibility.

    • The Academy holds learning, innovation, and inner development.

    • The Crowd represents labor, community, family, and survival.

    • The Troop moves around—artists, travelers, performers, and those who live between identities.

    Imagery:

    The imagery focuses more on symbolic scenes and hands than on detailed faces. This creates a feeling that you’re looking at illuminated panels from a fantasy codex or in-game artifact rather than a traditional oracle. The vibe is theatrical, slightly dramatic, and very immersive.

    What I use it for:

    • I want a story-driven reading

    • I’m exploring identity, roles, power, or community

    • Someone I’m reading for is into D&D, RPGs, gaming, or fantasy

    • I want to pull a single archetype to flavor a tarot spread

    • I’m doing creative or narrative work

    Because it includes upright and reversed meanings, I also like using it as a standalone oracle for deeper reflection. 

    What I don’t use it for:

    This is not a soothing deck—it’s a catalytic one, working with roles, friction, becoming, and consequence. I don’t usually reach for this deck when:

    • someone wants a classic tarot reading

    • the question is very practical or yes/no

    • a person feels overwhelmed by symbolic complexity

    • they want soft, emotional, or gentle imagery

    💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

    From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Miser (Reversed)

    The Ten of Wands reminds us that even magic can become heavy if we overcommit. Color Magic doesn’t need to]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846404 7bd72cdd-725f-4479-9e14-5183ec79c22d 1283 full 19 19 8 8 false Wed, 10 Dec 2025 21:53:37 GMT Today’s episode explores the bold, neon-soaked magic of the Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsey D'Amour Williams—a Rider–Waite–Smith–based deck infused with Southwestern desert energy, historical figures, cactus medicine, and yes… aliens!

    My Story with This Deck

    I found this deck at Crescent Moon Gifts in University Place, Washington, after one of my tarot socials. I was looking for something new, and this one immediately stood out—bright colors, bold lines, and a vibe that felt both mystical and mischievous.

    At first glance, I didn’t even notice the aliens. I was drawn in by the desert imagery, the cactus symbolism, and the intense psychedelic color palette. Then, when I got it home, I started working with it and realized just how layered and strange it really is—in the best way!

    It quickly became one of my go-to “bright energy” decks when I want something that still reads cleanly with Rider–Waite–Smith structure, but doesn’t take itself too seriously.

    This deck is vibrant, weird, and energetic. It’s playful without being shallow, grounded without being heavy. It carries a sense of humor, possibility, and movement that makes readings feel lively rather than solemn.

    Style:

    This deck is bold, psychedelic, and deeply rooted in Southwestern desert mythology. The color palette is electric—neon pinks, turquoise, lime green, and glowing gold dominate the artwork. Aliens, desert mesas, peyote-like cactus imagery, and surreal spiritual motifs give the deck a playful, high-strangeness feel that still holds real depth. It feels rebellious, magical, and chaotically alive.

    Structure:

    The Desert Illuminations Tarot is rooted in the Rider–Waite–Smith system, but reinterprets the symbols through the land, myth, and culture of the Southwestern United States. It stays structurally close to traditional tarot, but the suit names are transformed to reflect desert culture and elemental energy:

    • Pentacles - Cactus

    • Wands - Chilies

    • Swords - Daggers

    • Cups - Mystic Jugs

    The deck includes a detailed guidebook (codex) with full interpretations, sample spreads, and a special Cactus Spread unique to this deck.

    Imagery:

    The cards are saturated with movement, heat, and surreal symbolism. Everything glows. Psychedelic skies, radiant desert plants, neon spirits, cowboys, and cosmic imagery blend in a way that feels both ancient and futuristic. The art is loud in the best way—impossible to ignore and rich with visual metaphor.

    What I use it for:

    It’s especially great for creative questions, personal growth, and moments when someone needs encouragement without emotional heaviness.

    
    

    What I don’t use it for:

    I usually don’t reach for this deck when:

    • the question is emotionally heavy or tender

    • someone needs very soft, gentle imagery

    • a quiet, grounding tone is required

    • a client prefers classic, muted traditional deck

    💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

    From The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams , I pulled the Nine of Jugs (Reversed).

    This reversal reminds us that fulfillment isn’t only something waiting at the finish line. Sometimes it’s already here, but only if we allow ourselves to acknowledge it.

    Reflective prompts on this card:

    • Where am I minimizing my own accomplishments?

    • What joy have I postponed until “everything is finished”?

    • What wo]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846407 63556f69-10ca-49b3-8337-d6d3a2c24b8f 1030 full 19 19 7 7 false Tue, 09 Dec 2025 21:39:56 GMT In this episode, I’m talking about the Wild Kuan Yin Oracle – Velvet Goddess Edition by Alana Fairchild, with artwork by Wang Yiguang. This is my very first oracle deck, and it has become a tender, powerful companion for seasons of deep inner work, grief, and gentle transformation.

      My Story with This Deck

      I found the Wild Kuan Yin Oracle in one of those tiny, overflowing witchy shops in Beacon, New York—crystals packed on every surface, herbs in jars, shelves stacked to the ceiling. I’d been half-looking for a new tarot deck, but nothing was quite landing.

      Then I saw this huge, deep purple box with “Wild Kuan Yin Oracle: Velvet Goddess Edition” on the front.

      I picked it up. Put it back. Circled the store. Came back to it. You know that feeling when a deck just won’t stop calling you? That was this one.

      This is also my first oracle deck, which makes it extra special. It really did open something in me about working with cards outside the structure of tarot—more fluid, more intuitive, more like receiving a blessing or a healing session than “getting an answer.”

      This is an oracle deck, not a tarot deck, so it does not follow the Rider–Waite–Smith system. It feels less like “here’s what your card means” and more like “here’s a doorway into healing with this energy.”

      Style:

      The Velvet Goddess Edition absolutely leans into its name. The whole experience is lush:

      • A large, royal purple box with a matching velvet drawstring bag for the cards

      • A substantial guidebook (almost 300 pages) printed in rich purple ink

      • 44 oversized oracle cards that give the artwork plenty of space to breathe

      Energetically, the deck is all about the Divine Mother as wild, loving, and fiercely compassionate. The tone is deeply comforting, but not fluffy—more like a wise aunt who will stroke your hair and tell you it’s time to stop abandoning yourself.

      Structure:

      It reads almost like a combination of an oracle deck, a devotional text, and a trauma-informed healing guide. You could easily pull one card a week and have plenty to work with.

      Imagery:

      The artwork by Wang Yiguang is rich, painterly, and deeply atmospheric. The palette is saturated but soft: earthy browns, deep reds, cool blues, and luminous light. It feels like stepping into a dream where time moves differently. Most cards are oil paintings inspired by Tibetan landscapes, animals, and figures.

      What I use it for:

      I reach for the Wild Kuan Yin Oracle when I—or someone I’m reading for—needs deep, gentle, spiritually rooted support rather than quick answers.

      Each card often becomes a full practice: reading the message, doing the healing process, and sitting with the imagery. One card can easily be a whole afternoon’s spiritual work.

      What I don’t use it for:

      I don’t usually reach for this deck when:

      • someone wants a fast, straightforward answer

      • I’m doing a quick, multi-card spread or “light” check-in

      • the querent is expecting a traditional tarot structure

      • I’m reading on a tight time budget

      💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

      From Wild Kuan Yin Oracle: The Velvet Goddess Edition by Alana Fairchild , I pulled the “Harvest Mother Watches Over Me.”

      This is a reminder that sometimes the most important work isn’t new action—it’s slowing down and letting things settle so wisdom can crystallize.

This is a deck that lives right at the intersection of tarot, self-inquiry, and healing work, and it has a very specific role in my collection.

        My Story with This Deck

        I found this deck in a very on-brand way: at a Therapists Who Tarot retreat in spring 2024, led by Dreya and Rebecca. Each morning, we dove into how to ethically and thoughtfully bring tarot into therapy sessions—how to document it, talk about it with clients, and integrate it into our clinical work. In the afternoons, we shifted into art: cutting, gluing, painting, and making our own collage tarot cards while learning about the symbolism of the deck.

        It was one of those rare experiences that felt both deeply professional and deeply witchy.

        By the end of the retreat, I knew I wanted a tangible way to carry that learning and that community forward, so I bought the Therapist Who Tarot deck directly from them.

        This is the deck I think of as “therapist brain meets tarot brain”—in the best possible way.

        Style:

        The Therapists Who Tarot Deck is warm, approachable, and deliberately reflective. It doesn’t try to be mystical or intimidating. It feels like a deck made for real people having real feelings—something you’d use in a session, a journal practice, or a quiet moment when you’re trying to understand yourself a little better.

        Structure:

        The deck follows the familiar Rider–Waite–Smith structure, but with a couple of intentional shifts. Pentacles become Spirals, a symbol rooted in nature and growth, and Pages are renamed Daughters, while Knights, Queens, and Kings stay the same.

        There’s no traditional guidebook. But beginners can still use this deck as a gentle, introspective tool rather than relying on memorized meanings. Each card invites you to interpret it through three elements:

        • the artwork

        • the single keyword

        • and the reflection questions printed on the back

        Imagery:

        Everything is painted in watercolor, giving the deck a soft, fluid quality. Figures are often implied rather than detailed—shapes, silhouettes, and gestures that feel human without being literal. The color palettes vary, and each suit has a distinct border color to anchor the imagery.

        What I use it for:

        I reach for the Therapist Tarot Deck when I want tarot to feel like a reflective conversation rather than a strict “prediction.” It’s especially supportive when I’m doing work that’s adjacent to therapy, journaling, or emotional processing.

        What I don’t use it for:

        There are a few instances where this deck isn’t my first choice:

        • when someone is brand new to tarot and really wants clear, traditional meanings and reversals

        • when we’re doing a big, structured spread that leans heavily on classical symbolism

        • when a querent wants a very mystical, archetypal, or ritual-heavy feel

        • when I need detailed upright/reversed interpretations directly from a guidebook

        It’s not the deck I’d hand someone who says, “I want the cards to tell me exactly what to do.” It’s more for, “I want to better understand how I’m feeling and what I might need.”

        💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

        From Therapists Who Tarot Deck, I pulled the Four of Wands (Reversed).

        In reverse, the heart of the Four of Wands asks us to consider where support, stability, and celebration live in our lives—and where we might be blocking ourselves from fully stepping into them.

This isn’t just a deck; it’s an entire ritual system for working with Venusian energy, erotic embodiment, and the divine feminine in all her messy, sacred, sensual glory.

        My Story with This Deck

        I didn’t stumble on this deck by accident—I sought it out.

        I’d been following Gabriela Herstik on Instagram for years, reading her work on witchcraft, sex magic, and goddess devotion. I’d read her books, seen her sacred slut coven offerings, and watched her lean more and more deeply into Venusian, erotic, and ritual work. So when I heard she was creating a tarot deck specifically centered on the erotic divine feminine, my ears perked up.

        The Goddess of Love Tarot felt like the natural next step in her body of work—and in mine.

        When the deck arrived, it was immediately clear that this wasn’t “just another tarot.” The book is substantial—closer to a short occult text than a little white booklet.
        It felt like being handed an entire love-and-lust-centered magical curriculum wrapped in pink and roses.

        This is one of the few decks I use not just as a reader, but as a student and practitioner. I reach for it when I want to reconnect to my own sensuality, creative power, and softness—not as something passive, but as something sacred and potent.

        Style:

        This deck is unapologetically Venusian. Pink ink, red borders, roses everywhere, statues of goddesses and sacred feminine figures, dolphins, oceans, soft bodies, altars, and lush textures. Even the guidebook is printed entirely in pink, which makes it feel like an object of ritual all on its own.

        Structure:

        The structure is rooted in the Rider–Waite–Smith system, but intentionally reimagined through a divine feminine lens.

        The book also weaves in a wide range of goddess traditions—not just Greco-Roman, but Sumerian, African diasporic, Hindu, Egyptian, and more. You’ll meet figures like Inanna, Oshun, Kali, Lilith, Isis, Mary Magdalene, and beyond. It’s very much a global, intersectional approach to the divine feminine.

        Imagery:

        Everything leans sensual and evocative: flowing hair, soft curves, lush flowers, water, fruit, silk, and light. Even the borders and color choices feel intentional—reds and pinks that echo flesh, blood, desire, and heart energy.

        What I use it for:

        This is a deck I reach for when the question or situation is explicitly about love, lust, desire, or relationship to self as a sensual, embodied being. It’s also powerful for creative work and magic that centers the body, pleasure, and Venusian themes.

        What I don’t use it for:

        This is not my default deck for every querent or every situation. It’s a powerful ally, but it asks for consent, readiness, and a certain openness to the erotic as sacred.
        💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

        From The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck, I pulled The Empress (Upright).

        The Empress in this deck is Venus herself—oceanic, lush, radiant, and deeply in love with the act of creating beauty. She’s the embodiment of pleasure as nourishment, desire as a compass, and creativity as a living, breathing force.

This deck came home with me from Salem, Massachusetts, during a witchy retreat with my coven in 2022, and it’s been a steady presence in my readings ever since.

        My Story with This Deck

        I found the Anima Mundi Tarot on a trip to Salem with my coven—the Dirty Hoe Coven, to be exact—during our very first retreat together. I was determined to bring home a deck that felt like a true souvenir of the trip.

        After wandering through several metaphysical shops and running my hands across more decks than I could reasonably justify, this was the one that spoke to me. The colors, the animals, the moodiness—it felt like a quiet, grounded invitation. At the time, it became my third-ever tarot deck, and it opened up an entirely new way of reading for myself and others.

        This deck holds the memory of that trip—walking cobblestone streets with my coven, sharing meals, doing spells together, and laughing until my stomach hurt. Whenever I pick it up, I feel that same warmth and belonging.

        There’s a softness to the artwork of this deck that makes it approachable even for people who are totally new to tarot. It’s intuitive, friendly, and gentle while still carrying depth.

        Style:

        The Anima Mundi Tarot has a moody, earthy aesthetic that feels like stepping into a dusk-lit forest. The palette is subdued—blacks, browns, charcoals, muted blues—and the card backs feature a delicate floral design overlaid with the triple moon. It feels witchy without being theatrical, and natural without losing its enchantment.

        Structure:

        This is a traditional 78-card Rider–Waite–Smith deck, structured exactly as a beginner would expect. The major arcana keep their standard names, and the suits follow the usual associations. The guidebook is small but incredibly usable, with upright and reversed meanings for every card, plus a note about the specific plant or animal featured. It also includes simple spreads, which makes it beginner-friendly.

        Imagery:

        The imagery is entirely flora and fauna—no humans anywhere in the deck. Each card features an animal or plant chosen intentionally for its symbolism. Some of the major arcana include iconic PNW symbols. The art is painted in acrylics, which gives it a warm, organic feel.

        What I use it for:

        I reach for the Anima Mundi Tarot when I want something approachable, intuitive, and nurturing—especially for querents who are brand new to tarot. The animal symbolism gives people something to connect to immediately, even if they’ve never seen a tarot card in their life.

        This deck feels steady, calm, and welcoming. It reads beautifully for personal reflection or for people who might feel intimidated by more intense imagery.

        What I don’t use it for:

        Because this deck doesn’t include human figures, I don’t usually use it for relationship-specific questions or readings where interpersonal dynamics need more literal representation.

        I also tend to avoid it when:

        • someone wants dramatic symbolism or a highly visual RWS clone

        • the reading calls for shadow work with sharper edges a querent needs a strong visual anchor for archetypes like The Emperor, The Lovers, or The Fool

        But overall, the deck is versatile and reliable—one of the most adaptable decks in my collection.

        From Anima Mundi Tarot Deck by Megan Wyreweden, I pulled the Knight of Wands (Upright).

        This card carries fiery momentum. It invites you to move boldly toward something new, to trust your instincts, and to let excitement be the spark that moves you forward.

        Today, I’m talking about the Ophidia Rosa Tarot by Leila + Olive. I followed the artist online for years, and when I saw them teasing images of this deck—botanical, moody, hand-drawn, and unapologetically natural—I was immediately drawn in. I ordered it as soon as it was released. It’s floral, intuitive, shadowy, and deeply symbolic. But it’s also one of the more enigmatic decks in my collection.

        Unlike many of my tarot decks, the Ophidia Rosa Tarot didn’t come into my life through a shop or a moment of serendipity... I found it online. I was following Leila + Olive on Instagram somewhere around 2019 or 2020, and I remember seeing a preview of the artwork: matte illustrations, botanical borders, coiled serpents, mushrooms, vines, petals. It was instantly magnetic.

        But reading with it? That was another story! This deck speaks quietly. Symbolically. Poetically. It does not hand you the interpretation, it wants you to meet it halfway. You have to come in already knowing the tarot or be willing to sit with ambiguity. 

        The Ophidia Rosa Tarot is one of the most artist-driven decks in my collection. Everything about it is informed by botanical symbolism and the language of plants.

        Style:

        The Ophidia Rosa Tarot carries a soft, botanical, witchy aesthetic—matte card-stock, muted golden edges, and delicate linework. The coiled snake on the card backs sets the tone for a deck that feels earthy, mystical, and rooted in plant magic.

        Structure:

        This deck follows the traditional Rider–Waite–Smith system. The major arcana use standard names and Roman numerals, and the four suits remain intact. The guidebook is intentionally sparse, offering only short poetic lines rather than explanations, so it’s best suited for readers who rely on intuition or already know the tarot archetypes well.

        Imagery:

        Every card is built from simple botanical illustrations—vines, blossoms, stems, mushrooms, and serpents. Wands appear as branches, Pentacles often as mushrooms, Swords as thorned stems, and Cups implied rather than literal. The imagery is symbolic, minimal, and atmospheric, inviting you to interpret rather than be instructed.

        What I use it for:

        The Ophidia Rosa Tarot is a deck I reach for when I’m craving something intuitive, poetic, and atmospheric. Because the guidebook is sparse and the imagery leans metaphorical rather than literal, this deck shines in practices that invite spaciousness and contemplation.

        It’s a deck that asks you to sit with it, breathe with it, and let the meaning rise on its own time. If you love symbolic or herbal imagery, this deck feels like opening an old garden gate and wandering inside.

        What I don’t use it for:

        This isn’t the deck I reach for when someone is brand-new to tarot or feeling overwhelmed. The imagery is beautiful, but it’s subtle—there aren’t clear cues for beginners, and the booklet won’t walk anyone through the cards in a structured way.

        The Ophidia Rosa Tarot is gorgeous, but it’s not a starter deck. You bring more of yourself into the reading than the deck gives back—and for intuitive readers, that’s exactly what makes it so magical.

        💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

        From Ophidia Rosa Tarot deck by Leila & Olive, I pulled the Five of Cups (Upright) - “Growth to the sun, too high to hold on.”

        This card reminds us that disappointment isn’t failure—it’s information. Sometimes something stops blooming not to punish us, but because we’re meant to plant ourselves somewhere new.

        Today, I’m talking about The Sasuraibito Tarot, a deck that holds a very special place in my heart. This was the first tarot deck I ever owned, and in many ways, it’s the deck that taught me how to read tarot. It’s moody, modern, a little goth, a little Buddhist, and deeply rooted in the Pacific Northwest—the place I call home. If a tarot deck could be a friend you’ve had since your twenties, this would be mine.

        My Story with this Deck

        I still remember the first time I saw this deck. There was a little boutique I used to walk past on my way to work in downtown Seattle—one of those handmade clothing shops where everything is beautiful and expensive, and you go inside even if you know you can’t afford anything. I was drawn in by the window displays long before I ever stepped inside.

        One day, tucked between racks of hand-sewn dresses and local jewelry, I noticed this single tarot deck—just one, not a whole collection. I picked it up, put it back, picked it up again. It felt like the deck was waiting for me, even though at the time I wasn’t actively looking for one.

        When I finally bought it, I didn’t know that this would be the deck that carried me through the years right before grad school, during huge transitions, heartbreaks, and new beginnings. I was wandering in a very literal sense—trying to figure out who I was becoming—and the name Sasuraibito translates to “wanderer.” It fit me more than I realized at the time.

        Style:

        It has a dark, slightly goth aesthetic—black borders, rich colors, a death moth on the back of the cards. But it’s also soft in places. Human. Tender. The imagery feels like it belongs to the world we live in right now, not a medieval fantasy.

        Structure:

        This is a Rider–Waite–Smith format deck through and through. No renamed cards. No rearranged suits. But with a twist: the minor cards spell out their numbers rather than using Roman numerals. (Bless. Truly.)

        Imagery:

        The deck is filled with Pacific Northwest vibes—mountains, hikers, tea, cozy interiors, rainy moods. The people in the deck are diverse in race, gender presentation, and expression. There are queer folks, androgynous folks, people with multicolored hair, people who feel like they might actually live down the street from me.

        The guidebook is written by the artist themselves, which I adore. Sometimes they explain exactly why they drew something a certain way, and it feels like getting a personal behind-the-scenes tour of their creative mind. It’s such a cohesive experience.

        What I use it for:

        This deck is the one I reach for when I want clarity, honesty, or a grounding visual cue. It’s vivid and expressive, and the interpretations are strong without being harsh.

        What I don’t use it for:

        This deck isn’t always my go-to for people who are brand-new to tarot and feeling nervous about it. The imagery isn’t frightening—but it is moody, and some people need something gentler at first. In those cases, I tend to reach for my Anima Mundi deck or other softer, earth-based decks.

        
        

        💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

        From The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington, I pulled the Three of Swords (Reversed).

        The Three of Swords speaks about heartbreak, grief, and the experience of being hurt or even hurting someone else. Reversed, this leans into forgiveness, healing, and moving on—making space for understanding and integration after the storm.

        Reflective prompts on this card:

        • Where in my life am I still carrying an old heartbreak that wants acknowledgment? https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846416 e8869b51-2c17-42eb-a50b-fa39855c78e6 1253 full 19 19 1 1 false Mon, 01 Dec 2025 14:00:00 GMT In this episode, we talk about the power of silver—the color of moonlight, reflection, intuition, and the liminal spaces between worlds. Silver invites you to listen inward, honor your instincts, and walk with your inner light even when the path ahead is not fully visible.

          What we explore in this episode:

          • What silver is in color magic, and how it differs from grey

          • Silver’s connection to the Moon, winter, and liminal thresholds

          • Day-of-the-week and seasonal correspondences for silver

          • How “moon energy” and silver show up in tarot and oracle symbolism

          Understanding Silver in Color MagicSilver is essentially metallic grey—a tone that resembles polished silver metal. What makes silver unique isn’t just its color, but its shine and reflectivity. Where grey can feel flat or neutral, silver feels alive, shifting, and responsive to light.

          In color magic, silver is associated with:

          • The Moon and lunar deities

          • Intuition, dreams, and psychic sensitivity

          • The subconscious, mystery, and the unseen

          • Reflection—self-inquiry, journaling, and emotional processing

          • Protection from harmful or draining influences

          • Threshold spaces: endings, beginnings, and journeys through the unknown

          Silver is the color of Monday | Moon: dreams, intuition, emotional safety, and spiritual growth.  Silver pairs especially well with winter and deep night. It’s softer than gold’s blazing radiance, where gold beams outward, silver invites you inward—toward your inner landscape, your instincts, and your emotional tides. 

          To align with silver’s magic, consider practices that honor stillness, reflection, and gentle inner listening. Silver is powerful magic for:

          • Dreamwork and moon rituals

          • Ancestral or spirit communication

          • Intuition-building practices

          • Emotional protection and energetic boundaries

          • Navigating transitions and big inner decisions

          Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Silver

          Since metallic ink can be hard to reproduce, silver often shows up symbolically in tarot and oracle decks through:

          • Moonlight, stars, and night skies

          • Water, glass, and reflective surfaces

          • Cool palettes like blues, greys, whites

          • Animals and figures associated with nighttime, intuition, or liminality

          Below are some of the cards discussed in this episode and how they embody silver energy.

          
          

          The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington 

          • Knight of Cups - Silver energy here represents quiet introspection, emotional sensitivity, and moving through the world guided by feeling and intuition.

          • The Star - This is a silver starlight of hope—soft, subtle, but steady enough to navigate by.

          • Nine of Swords - Silver shows up as the sharp edge of the mind, late-night spirals, and worries that feel louder in the dark.

          Seasons of the Witch Samhain Oracle

          • Journey - Silver appears as the glow of the unknown road ahead, the underworld journey through inner terrain—grief, transformation, and becoming.

          • Protection - Three veiled figures stand like guardians or ancestors. This card brings silver as spiritual warding and ancestral shielding, reminding you that you are watched over as you move through liminal space.

          • Wolf - A wolf howls at the moon while figures kneel near a hearth. Silver here is the moon-call to your instincts and wild self.

Gold invites you to honor what you’ve built, what you’ve learned, and how you’re shining right now.

          What we explore in this episode:

          • What gold means in color magic and how gold functions as a “solar + harvest” current

          • How gold connects to seasonal and sabbat correspondences in witchcraft

          • The way gold shows up symbolically in tarot and oracle imagery

          Understanding Gold in Color Magic

          Gold is not just “money vibes”—it’s legacy energy. It’s the color of a full grain silo, a well-stocked pantry, the glow of candles on a ritual altar, the golden hour before sunset, the mead of poetry, and the wisdom that comes from living through multiple cycles.

          
          

          Either way, magically speaking, gold is almost always associated with:

          • The Sun and solar radiance

          • Abundance and reward

          • Harvest and “earned” wealth

          • Honor, recognition, and prestige

          • Enlightenment and illumination

          • Divine inspiration, poetry, and sacred knowledge

          Gold is the color of Sunday | Sun: vitality, visibility, confidence, solar magic. Perfect for honoring your life-force, success, and joy.

          Gold doesn’t always show up in the simple “one color per planet/day” lists. Think of gold as the color you reach for when you want your magic to be bright, blessed, and built to last. It has strong intuitive ties:

          • Harvest & gratitude rituals

          • Long-term prosperity and sustainability (not just quick cash)

          • Creative recognition, visibility, and sharing your work

          • Illumination in study, writing, music, and poetry

          • Solar offerings and working with deities of light, truth, and inspiration

          Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Gold

          Because not every deck can print literal metallic ink, gold symbolism often sneaks in as yellow, wheat, hair, light, mead, or glowing objects. In the decks you mentioned, gold shows up through harvest, hair, vessels, and sacred tools.

          
          

          Norse Goddess Rune Oracle

          • Jera | Goddess Sif - Harvest, Reward, Yearly Cycle - Gold here represents earned abundance, patient growth, and the wealth that comes from the land.

          • Wunjo | Goddess Lofn - Joy, Happiness, Peace - Gold in this card says: "Joy is sacred." Honor the pleasure of simply being.

          • Kenaz | Goddess Gunnlǫð - Torch, Enlightenment, Passion - Here, gold = inspired fire. It's the glow of candles, the warmth of shared stories, the alchemy of word and song.

          Seasons of the Witch Samhain Oracle

          • Divination - A figure sits with cards, candles, and what looks like a golden box or gilded deck. Shedding light on what is hidden.

          • The Witch - Surrounded by abundance and crowned in luminous hair. Gold marks the alchemy of self. Claiming your identity as a witch and standing in the richness of your practice.

          • Ritual - A figure encircled by lights or candles in a glowing ring. Gold is the container of devotion. It represents the energy you build over time through repeated acts of magic.

          The Botanist is usually]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846421 09e05599-3e4c-4556-920b-580dd05e6dcf 1991 full 18 18 12 12 true Thu, 27 Nov 2025 14:00:00 GMT In this episode, we talk about the power of brown—the color of soil, tree bark, cacao, roots, and so much of our embodied, earthly life. Brown invites you to reconnect with your foundations: your body, your home, your long-term growth, and your relationship to the land.

          What we explore in this episode:

          • How brown is created in color theory, and where it shows up in nature and everyday life

          • What color magic is and how brown works as a grounding, root-level energy

          • Ways brown shows up in tarot symbolism through roots, wood, soil, and plant allies

          Understanding Brown in Color MagicBrown is a darkened or desaturated shade of orange, often created by mixing many colors together. It’s one of the most common colors in the natural world—showing up in soil, bark, seeds, nuts, coffee, cacao, animal fur, and human hair and eyes.

          In color magic, brown can represent:

          • Grounding and stability

          • Home, hearth, and domestic magic

          • Endurance and long-term commitments

          • Roots, ancestry, and land-based wisdom

          • Slow, sustainable growth

          • Practicality, work, and responsibility

          • Embodiment and connection to the physical world

          Brown isn’t always a “flashy” spell color—but it’s the one you reach for when you want something to last, to be real, and to be rooted in the body and the earth. When working magically with brown, you might focus on:

          • Grounding and centering practices

          • Long-term projects and slow growth

          • Creating or tending a home or hearth space

          • Commitments that need patience and resilience

          Days of the Week & Brown

          Brown doesn’t have a traditional, fixed day-of-the-week association in many common correspondence lists. However, you can intuitively place brown where it makes sense for your practice:

          • Tuesday (Red | Mars): if you’re working with brown as a deepened, earthier extension of red or orange, especially around courage + survival.

          • Sunday or Monday: if you blend brown with golds, creams, or whites as “warm earth” or “home-light” energy.

          • Or simply as your “Hearth Day” color—whichever day you clean, cook, budget, meal-prep, garden, or tend your home.

          Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Brown

          In tarot imagery, brown often appears through wood, soil, bark, roots, and plant material. It points us toward themes of embodiment, time, and structure—the unglamorous but sacred work of staying alive and building a life.

          
          

          The Herbcrafter’s Tarot

          • The Hierophant (The Healer | Kindness) - Brown imagery here is about drawing wisdom from what has survived, not just what is written.

          • The World (Success) - Brown shows that true “world” energy includes the body, the land, and your lived reality, not just spiritual ideals.

          • Queen of Cups (Calm | Harmony) - Brown suggests emotional maturity that’s grounded, not floaty or detached.

          • Seven of Earth (Oak) - Brown bark, acorns, and wood point to legacy, stewardship, and trust in time.

          • The Hanged One (Burdock) - Brown here symbolizes the inner work that happens underground, unseen, but vital. 

          • Seven of Fire (Cinnamon) - Brown reminds us that heat and spice can be grounded, embodi]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846423 16f26f15-c7c2-4816-9897-0499e8a8705b 1751 full 18 18 11 11 true Wed, 26 Nov 2025 14:00:00 GMT In this episode, we talk about the power of pink—a tender, powerful tint of red that lives at the crossroads of softness and strength. Pink invites you to explore emotional love, care, romance, and the nuanced spectrum of femininity, while also honoring your own delight, sensitivity, and sweetness.

            Understanding Pink in Color MagicPink is a pale tint of red, originally named after the "pinks" flower (Dianthus). As a color name, pink is relatively new compared to many other hues, emerging in the late 17th century.

            Historically, pink was not always coded as a "feminine" color. In the early 20th century, light red (close to what we now call pink) was sometimes seen as a strong, masculine shade. Over time, cultural narratives shifted, and pink became heavily linked to girlhood and femininity, especially in Western contexts.

            
            

            Pink is not traditionally assigned to a single chakra, but in color magic it acts like a bridge between two ends of the spectrum:

            Red (Root chakra):

            • Fire, blood, survival, passion, creation and destruction

            • Grounding, physical embodiment, primal life force

            Purple or white (Crown chakra):

            • Divine connection, higher wisdom, soul energy

            • Spiritual insight, source, and transcendence

            Pink can be seen as a heart-led blend of these energies: love that is embodied but also aspirational; devotion that holds both tenderness and intensity.

            In color magic, pink is often worked with for:

            • Emotional love and romance

            • Partnerships and intimacy

            • Friendships, goodwill, and social warmth

            • Peaceful connection and reconciliation

            • Emotional healing and gentle self-compassion

            • Nurturing and care, for self and others

            Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Pink

            Pink shows up in tarot wherever emotional love, tenderness, pleasure, or receptive power is being emphasized. In many decks, it appears as blossoms, fabrics, skies, or background tones that soften or deepen the mood of a card.

            
            

            The Herbcrafter’s Tarot

            • The Empress (Rose) - While roses are often associated with red, many are pink, and the card’s imagery leans into love, sensuality, beauty, and protection (thorns).

            • Nine of Cups (Nine of Water | Peach) - Peach blossoms are a vivid pink, representing sweetness, ripeness, and emotional fulfillment. 

            • Knight of Cups (Adelita of Water | Ocotillo) - Pink here speaks to a guarded but generous heart: strong boundaries with a vibrant, loving core. 

            The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams 

            Pink appears throughout the deck in sunsets, clothing, and surreal desert symbolism, where it often signals:

            • Emotional intensity without losing playfulness

            • Deep feeling inside dynamic or chaotic situations

            • Heart energy woven into fire, air, or earth experiences

            High Priestess in a pink gown or pink-toned skies behind figures can highlight intuitive knowing, the sacred feminine, and where the heart is involved—as healing, longing, risk, tenderness, or devotion.

            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

            From The Goddess of Love Tarot, I pulled two cards: the Five of Wands and the Maiden of Cups.

            The Five of Wands carries the firepower of Mars. Pink here reminds you that even conflict in relationships can be held with care, clarit]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846425 69834de3-307b-4483-b382-509a43cc8ac4 1366 full 18 18 10 10 false Tue, 25 Nov 2025 22:04:16 GMT In this episode, we talk about the power of orange—the color of creativity, change, sensuality, and the spark that brings new things into being. In tarot, orange is a natural fit for cards that speak to motion, creativity, risk, and the tension between transformation and control.

            What we explore in this episode:

            • How orange connects to the sacral chakra, creativity, and sensual energy

            • The fiery, transformative side of orange in tarot archetypes

            • Where orange can support ambition, risk-taking, and disciplined follow-through

            Understanding Orange in Color MagicOrange lives between red and yellow on the visible spectrum. In traditional color theory, it is a secondary color, created by mixing red and yellow paints. In light-based models, it is a tertiary color that emerges between the primary beams of red and green.

            Orange carries both the heat of red and the optimism of yellow. It is the moment when the fire is high, the project is underway, and you are asked to decide how you will use that power.

            Because of this connection to ripeness, warmth, and seasonal change, Orange often carries associations with:

            • Harvest and autumn

            • Joy, amusement, and play

            • Extroversion and unconventional expression

            • Fire, energy, and activity

            • Sensuality, taste, and aroma

            In color magic, orange is often connected to the sacral chakra, the seat of:

            • Sexual energy and sensuality

            • Creativity and artistic expression

            • The womb and all that is waiting to be created

            • Flow, movement, and emotional flux

            • Transformation through pleasure and change

            From a witchcraft and spell-craft lens, orange can be worked with for:

            • Strength and vitality

            • Attracting opportunities and success

            • Encouragement, confidence, and clearing the mind

            • Career goals, selling, and legal or justice-oriented matters

            • Action, ambition, and general success magic

            Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Orange

            Orange often shows up in tarot where movement, drive, creativity, or intense desire is at play. It marks places in the deck where you are being invited to act, to transform, or to engage with your own power in bolder ways.

            
            

            Page of Wands - Orange emphasizes inspiration, the urge to try something new, and the first brave steps into creative action.

            Four of Pentacles - Here, orange shows up as the shadow of fire—greed, clinging, and the fear of loss. 

            The Chariot - Orange here amplifies drive, ambition, and the will to move. 

            Five of Swords (Destruction) - In the Five of Swords, orange energy highlights destruction, sharp words, and the kind of mental or relational “fire” that can easily get out of hand. 

            Daughter of Swords (Curious) - The Daughter of Swords asks: What makes you feel awake and mentally engaged? Orange here is the creative, experimental side of intellect.

            Seven of Spirals (Effort) - Orange in this card connects the “spark” of wanting change with the grounded effort required to cultivate it over time.

            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

            Voices is a card of encouragement and inner knowing.

Green invites you to ground, soften, and remember that you are part of a larger, living ecosystem.

            Understanding Green in Color Magic

            In nature, green is most present in chlorophyll—the pigment that allows plants to photosynthesize and turn sunlight into energy. It is the color of leaves, grass, new growth, and many of the environments we move through every day. Historically, green has also been connected to wealth, merchants, and bankers, which is why it still shows up in associations with money and prosperity.

            In the chakra system, green is tied to the heart chakra—our capacity to love, grieve, heal, and hold ourselves and others with compassion.

            In color magic, green can represent:

            • The earth element and nature magic

            • Fertility, growth, and new opportunities

            • Healing, balance, and courage of the heart

            • Prosperity, work, and long-term stability

            • Luck and positive change in direction

            Green is the color of Friday | Venus | Freyja: the day of art, love, beauty, pleasure, and creative fertility. Many witches work with green on Fridays for:

            • Money magic and prosperity work

            • Fertility in all forms - creative, emotional, and physical

            • Love spells, music, and pleasure rituals

            • Heart-healing and reconnecting with joy in the body

            Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Green

            Because green is so strongly tied to the earth and to the heart, it appears often in tarot cards that speak to growth, embodiment, practicality, and emotional resilience.

            
            

            The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams 

            • Page of Swords - Green here holds honesty, integrity, curiosity, and the willingness to look at the truth with an open mind and open heart.

            • Eight of Wands - Green emphasizes momentum, clarity of direction, and the fertile rush of events unfolding quickly.

            • Ace of Pentacles - This Ace is the seed of prosperity and tangible security. The green field behind them points to down-to-earth growth, practical work, and building something solid over time.

            The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington 

            • The World - Green here speaks to cycles, completion, and the living, resilient ecosystem of your life. It is wholeness that still belongs to the land.

            • Ten of Daggers (Ten of Swords) - Green in this card can suggest the possibility of healing and renewal after burnout, painful endings, or mental overwhelm.

            • Two of Cactus (Two of Pentacles) - Green highlights balance, adaptability, and the grounded flexibility needed to juggle multiple responsibilities without losing your center.

            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

            From Seasons of the Witch Samhain Oracle, I pulled Rooted (Reversed).

            Reversed, Rooted suggests that you may feel unsafe, scattered, or unmoored. Your magic might feel “off,” your nervous system may be on edge, or you might be trying to manifest without tending to the foundations underneath you. Before you focus on big goals, this card asks you to come back to earth-based practices, to your breath, and to the simple rituals that help you feel held.

            Reflective prompts on this card:

Blue invites you to soften your nervous system, speak honestly, and move from calm, grounded integrity.

              What we explore in this episode:

              • How blue shows up in nature, history, and symbolism

              • Planetary and day-of-the-week correspondences for blue

              • How blue shows up in tarot symbolism and deck imagery

              • Ways to bring blue into your spiritual and everyday routines

              Understanding Blue in Color MagicBlue is one of the primary colors and lies between violet and cyan on the visible spectrum. We see it most in the sky and the sea, which is why blue is so often associated with distance, calm, and vastness. Culturally, blue is linked to peace, stability, sadness, imagination, and trust. Blue is associated with the throat chakra, which governs our voice, integrity, and truth.

              
              

              Blue is the color of Thursday | Jupiter | Thor: dedication, endurance, faithfulness, luck, legal matters, loyalty, and money magic. 

              Blue supports long-term commitments and big-picture thinking—the slow, steady path that still honors your values. To align with blue's magic, you can:

              • Wear blue on Thursdays for protection, luck, and steadiness

              • Use blue candles for truth-telling, clarity, or court and legal workings

              • Work with blue for vocal healing, communication spells, and calm emotional processing

              Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Blue

              Blue often appears in tarot where calm, depth, and emotional or spiritual honesty are needed. It shows us where we are invited to tell the truth, listen to our inner voice, or rest into trust.

              
              

              The Herbcrafter’s Tarot

              • Borage - Six of Water (Six of Cups) - Blue star-shaped flowers and a lake in the background evoke emotional softness, sweetness, and nostalgic healing. Blue here feels like a gentle return to what has nourished you.

              • Elder - Four of Fire (Four of Wands) - Dark blue-black elderberries and a cozy hearth invite celebration, protection, and communal warmth. Blue holds the sense of spiritual protection around the home and the heart.

              • Chicory - Two of Air (Two of Swords) - Blue-purple chicory flowers mirror the tension of mental crossroads and decision-making, asking you to balance thought, intuition, and honesty.

              • Knight of Cups - A figure holding a hot drink and a blue book, eyes closed in serenity, shows blue as emotional intelligence, calm action, and imagination in motion.

              💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

              From Anima Mundi Tarot Deck by Megan Wyreweden, I pulled The Fool (Reversed).

              Reversed, the Fool asks you to pause before leaping. This is the energy of recklessness, naivete, or ignoring consequences.

              Reflective prompts on this card:

              • Where am I rushing ahead without considering the full picture?

              • What am I pretending "will work out somehow" that actually needs a plan?

              • What would it look like to move forward with both trust and thoughtful preparation?

From ancient snail-dyes reserved for emperors to contemporary associations with mystery and intuition, purple bridges the realms of crown, cosmos, and inner knowing. In tarot, it often shows up where power, spirit, and transformation meet. 

            • Understanding Purple in Color Magic

            Purple sits between red and blue, blending passion with spacious calm. Historically, it was one of the rarest colors to produce—Tyrian purple dye was made from sea snails and reserved for emperors, clergy, and nobility. Because of this, purple became tied to royalty, wealth, power, rarity, and sacred status.

            In modern associations, purple is often linked with magic, mystery, spirituality, ambition, and the mystical or erotic.

            In color magic, purple represents:

            • The crown chakra and connection to the divine

            • Spiritual development and higher wisdom

            • Intuition, psychic sensitivity, and spirit communication

            • Ambition, progress, and self-mastery

            • Protection, occultism, and energetic sovereignty

            Purple is linked to Wednesday | Mercury: communication, insight, resourcefulness, and learning. 

            To align with purple’s magic, choose practices that engage intuition, study, spirit work, or your higher self.

            Many witches work with purple on Wednesdays to support clear communication with spirit, sharper intuition, and growth in their craft.

            Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Purple

            Purple in tarot tends to show up where spirit, rarity, and elevation are present. It shows us where we are being invited to see the bigger pattern, trust our intuitive knowing, or honor the sacredness of our journey.

            
            

            The Sasuraibito Tarot 

            • Ten of Pentacles - A cosmic purple-indigo sky around a family scene suggests that stability, legacy, and home are not just practical but spiritually woven and blessed.

            • Two of Wands - A purple and indigo circle with a central sigil points to magical planning, stepping into possibility, and visioning a future guided by intuition.

            • Page of Cups - A figure in a starry purple dress holds a key and stands with a keyhole at the heart, embodying emotional openness, self-trust, and the sacred act of listening to your own heart.

            Therapist Who Tarot Prompts

              Understanding Red in Color Magic

              Red is the longest wavelength of visible light, which is why we instinctively feel its intensity. Across cultures and history, red has symbolized power, vitality, sexuality, danger, heat, courage, blood, life, and sacrifice. It is one of humanity’s oldest colors—used in prehistoric cave art, ancient rituals, armor, and holy ceremonies.

              In color magic, red represents:

              • Fire

              • Strength and vitality

              • Power and momentum

              • Courage and assertiveness

              • Passion, sexuality, and desire

              • Survival instincts and energetic drive

              Red is the color of Tuesday | Mars: assertive, strategic, competitive, courageous. Red is an activator. It signals movement, quickening, and awakening. It tells the body: Wake up. Pay attention. Act.

              To align with red’s magic, choose practices that engage the body, heat, passion, or courage. Red is powerful magic for:

              • Conflict resolution

              • Physical strength

              • Legal matters

              • Vitality and endurance

              • Logic and decisive action

              • War magic or protective magic

              This is why many witches wear red or pink on Tuesdays—to embody courage, direction, and unwavering momentum.

              Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Red

              Many central archetypes in tarot wear red because red conveys power and agency. Red in tarot shows where you must take initiative, trust your inner fire, or call on courage.

White is often linked to purity and holiness, but it’s also deeply tied to mourning, thresholds, and spiritual reset.

              What we explore in this episode:

              • How white shows up in religion, ritual, and cultural symbolism

              • Lunar and Monday correspondences associated with white

              • How white functions symbolically in tarot

              
              

              Understanding White in Color Magic

              White is the lightest color and is considered achromatic—it has no hue of its own, but reflects and scatters almost all visible wavelengths of light. In that way, it symbolically holds all colors at once.

              Because of this, white is often associated with:

              • Purity and cleansing

              • New beginnings and “blank slate” energy

              • Clarity, honesty, and spiritual connection

              • Peace, simplicity, and neutrality

              In color magic, white is linked to Monday and the Moon, supporting magic for dreams, intuition, home and family, healing, and ocean-tide energy. In general color magic, white also works as a universal stand-in for any other color.

              Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of White

              In Rider–Waite–Smith–inspired decks, white appears as a quiet but powerful symbol. It consistently speaks to innocence, cleansing, emotional honesty, rebirth, and the liminal spaces where transformation begins.

              Death rides a white horse, symbolizing that endings are natural, pure, and necessary for rebirth. Even though we often associate death with black, the white horse emphasizes the sacredness of transition.

              Temperance is typically robed in white, pouring water between cups. Her clothing represents balance, purity, and the inner knowing that you already hold what you need—highlighting themes of spiritual integration and emotional wholeness.

              From other decks featured in the episode:

            • • Herbcrafter’s Tarot - Yarrow (Ace of Air) - A delicate white flower symbolizing healing, clarity, and mental fresh starts.
              • Datura (The Moon) - A potent white bloom tied to trance, altered consciousness, and the subconscious.

            • Valerian (Eight of Water) - A plant for rest and sleep, mirroring white’s connection to surrender, release, and emotional unwinding.

            • Goddess of Love Tarot - Maiden of Cups - Pearls, white shells, and crown imagery highlight vulnerability, emotional honesty, and being guided by love.

            • Norse Goddess Rune Oracle - Rindr - The mother of Váli, the god born to avenge Baldr’s death. Rindr’s card would reflect her role in catalyzing justice and transformation, divine intervention, and the fierce, complex side of feminine power.

            • Berkana -The birch goddess, with her white peeling bark and mothering presence, represents growth, birth, and renewal.

            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

            The Captain card us that, true leadership and stability come from working with many different people, skills, and perspectives. You don’t have to do everything alone.

              What we explore in this episode:

              • Black as the color of protection, boundaries, endings, and the void

              • How black connects to Saturn, banishing magic, and the shadow self

              • Why black is culturally coded as “negative” and why that’s incomplete

              • How the color black shows up across tarot symbolism

              Black is often described as the absence of visible light. In magical and symbolic language, black represents the void, the unknown, the unseen, and the spaces where transformation quietly takes shape.

              Black is commonly associated with:

              • Protection and warding

              • Banishing and unbinding

              • Truth-telling and stripping away illusions

              • Releasing, endings, and letting the old cycle die

              • Saturn: discipline, responsibility, time, and boundaries

            • • Shadow work - not “bad,” simply the truths we’ve tucked away

              Understanding Black in Color MagicBlack can be culturally misunderstood because of language and imagery that tie “darkness” to “bad” and “light” to “good.” But in reality, black is not evil. Black is depth, protection, shadow, mystery, rest, and the fertile soil where new things grow. 

            Work with black magic in simple, grounding ways: wear black for protection or shadow work, burn a black candle to release old patterns, try a void meditation to sink into calming darkness, journal honestly about what needs to end, use black crystals or herbs like obsidian or Mugwort, and align your release rituals with the new moon’s return to the cosmic void.

            Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Black

            In tarot, black is often used deliberately to convey depth, severity, or transition. Many Rider–Waite–Smith–based cards use black to highlight the heaviness or intensity of a moment, but the deeper message is always one of transition, not doom.

            • The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington 

            • Anima Mundi Tarot Deck by Megan Wyreweden 

            • Norse Goddess Rune Oracle by Rebecca Joy Stark and illustrated by Sharon McLeod 

            Common “black-heavy” cards include:

            • Death - transformation, cycles, shedding the old

            • The Devil - shadow, entanglement, exploring what binds us

            • The Tower - destruction that leads to truth and awakening

            • The Nine & Ten of Swords - mental overwhelm, the darkest before the dawn

            • The Five of Cups - grief, sorrow, the heaviness of cloaked emotion

            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

            From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Founder (Upright).

            The Founder reminds us that even after destruction, there must be rebuilding. Something may be ending, shedding, or collapsing, but that frees you to build something truer, sturdier, and more aligned.

            In this episode, we talk about the magic of yellow—its solar roots, its relationship to tarot symbolism, and simple ways to work with yellow as both a bright, hopeful energy and a force that deserves respect and balance.

            What we explore in this episode:

            • The energetic, magical, and elemental correspondences of the color yellow

            • Why Sunday is the day of yellow in traditional magical systems

            • Solar magic, personal power, warmth, vitality, and clarity

            • How yellow interacts with tarot archetypes

            Understanding Yellow in Color MagicIt’s the color of illumination—both literal and metaphorical. Yellow wakes up the mind, sparks inspiration, and helps us “brighten” pathways toward change.

            Yellow is associated with:

            • The Sun and solar deities

            • The element of Air

            • The solar plexus chakra

            • Clarity, intellect, memory, mental processes

            • Prosperity, creativity, self-promotion, authority

            • Hope, optimism, dawn, beginnings, possibility

            If you want to honor yellow specifically, you might work more intentionally with it on Sundays: wear yellow, light a gold or yellow candle, or spend time in literal sunlight (or imagining it, if you live somewhere cloudy and rainy).

            Tarot, Symbolism, and the Power of Yellow

            Yellow is everywhere in the tarot. In the Rider–Waite–Smith system, many backgrounds are intentionally painted yellow to communicate optimism, warmth, clarity, and potential. This color creates an atmosphere where insight feels accessible. It communicates, “Something is opening. Something is possible.”

            Notable yellow-rich cards include:

            • The Sun - joy, vitality, illumination, growth

            • The Fool - beginner’s mind, openness, hope, fresh possibility

            • The Magician - confidence, self-actualization, creative power

            • Queen of Wands - charisma, warmth, visibility, inner fire

            • Many Wands cards - spark, movement, desire, creative ignition

            In decks like The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, yellow plants like St. John’s Wort or dandelion show up to mirror the healing, solar, and uplifting qualities of the color.

            Even the earth-element suit of Pentacles sometimes leans toward yellow— like coins, gold tones, grounded prosperity, warmth, and physical vitality.

            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

            From The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams, I pulled the Four of Wands (Upright).

            A card of warmth, comfort, celebration, and emotional fulfillment. Like the golden glow of sunset, this card is a reminder to pause, appreciate, and let the good moments count.

            • What can I celebrate today, even if it's small?

            • What part of my inner fire needs attention or nurturing?

              What we explore in this episode:

            • • What Color Magic is and how to use it intuitively
              • The traditional planetary and day-of-the-week color correspondences
            • • How color shows up in tarot symbolism
              • Ways to incorporate color into your spiritual and mundane routines

              Understanding Color MagicColor magic is one of the simplest ways to bring more mindfulness and magic into your daily life. It’s not about elaborate rituals or complicated correspondences—it’s about noticing. 

            • 
              

            The colors you wear, the foods you eat, the candles you light, even the tones in your home all carry energetic signatures. When you choose them with awareness, you begin to weave subtle threads of magic through your every day.

            
            

            Days of the Week Correspondences

            A playful way to incorporate color magic is to match your clothing or rituals to the planetary energy of the day:

            1. Sunday - Sun - Yellow/Gold - vitality, confidence, warmth

            2. Monday - Moon - White/Silver - intuition, rest, reflection

            3. Tuesday - Mars - Red - courage, conflict resolution, momentum

            4. Wednesday - Mercury - Purple (or Orange) - learning, writing, connection

            5. Thursday - Jupiter - Blue - expansion, faith, luck

            6. Friday - Venus - Green/Pink - love, pleasure, beauty, magnetism

            7. Saturday - Saturn - Black/Charcoal - boundaries, protection, discipline

            Simple & Practical Color Magic Applications

            Choose a color each day that represents how you want to feel. As you repeat this practice, you’ll begin to notice patterns—what colors you crave when you’re tired, joyful, or creative. That awareness itself becomes part of the magic.

            • Get dressed with purpose (scarf, socks, nails, jewelry)

            • Candle color for spell/ritual intention

            • Color your altar (cloths, flowers, stones)

            • Choose foods and teas by hue

            • Gentle home changes bedding, throw pillows, mugs

            Color in Tarot

            Color is one of the tarot’s most expressive languages.

            The Rider–Waite–Smith deck, for instance, uses color intentionally: reds for passion and drive, yellows for illumination, blues for truth and reflection. Even small details—like the color of a sky or a cloak—carry layers of meaning.

            Lunar Color Magic

            Beyond the cards, even the moon teaches us color magic. Each hue it wears carries its own rhythm and message:

            • Blood Red - transformation, endings, and powerful release

            • Golden Yellow - joy, confidence, vitality

            • Burnt Orange - creativity, change, and renewal

            • White - clarity, peace, purification

            • Blue Moon - rarity, reflection, reset

            • Lavender / Purple - intuition, liminality, dreams

            • Black / Dark Moon - rest, protection, stillness

            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

            From The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams, I pulled the Ten of Wands (Upright).

            The Ten of Wands reminds us that even magic can become heavy if we overcommit. Color Magic doesn’t need to be elaborate or exhausting. Let it be a gentle, sensory ritual that supports rather than overwhelms.

            Reflective prompts on this card:

            • Which color feels restorative to me right now?

                What we explore in this episode:

                • The 11/11 Stargate Tarot Spread from Emerald Lotus Divination

                • The spiritual and numerological meaning of 11:11

                11/11 Stargate Tarot Spread

                November 11—known to many as 11/11—is often seen as a numerological “portal,” a day when manifestation energy and cosmic awareness feel amplified. Whether you see 11:11 on a clock, receipt, or license plate, these repeating numbers invite you to pause and listen. Something—your higher self, your guides, or the universe itself—is calling your attention.

                The 11/11 Stargate Tarot Spread, created by Emerald Lotus Divination, opens this symbolic gateway through six reflective prompts. It’s a spread for awakening, release, and alignment—a way to harmonize your inner transformation with the vast rhythm of the cosmos.

                The Prompts:

                1. What can I do to step into the portal of 11:11 cosmic energy?

                2. What do I need to be fully aware of spiritually?

                3. The intention I’m currently giving out to the cosmos.

                4. How can I better align with my intention?

                5. How new downloads will come through for me over the next few days?

                6. The new wave of cosmic energy causing a shift in the coming months.

                1. Four of Chilies (Reversed) 

                Step into the portal through rest. You’ve built the foundation—now it’s time to pause, breathe, and let your growth catch up to you.

                2. Eight of Swords (Reversed) 

                Liberation begins when you stop waiting for rescue. This is your invitation to untie yourself from limiting beliefs.

                3. Ace of Daggers (Reversed) 

                Clarity may feel clouded, but the spark of purpose is still there. Use your insight as a tool, not a weapon.

                4. The Devil (Reversed)

                Shadow work is sacred work. You align with your intention by facing the habits and attachments that keep you small.

                5. Judgment (Reversed) 

                Revelation arrives through release. Allow truth to surface, even if it unsettles you. 

                6. Queen of Cactus (Reversed) 

                The shift ahead asks you to nurture yourself like the cosmic mother you are—grounded, generous, and infinitely capable of renewal.

Season 17 is all about seasonal tarot spreads for Autumn—cozy, reflective layouts to help you release what’s no longer needed, reconnect with your body, and plant seeds for what’s next.

                  In today’s episode, we’re exploring the Samhain Ritual Tarot Spread by Emerald Lotus Divination—a five-card layout designed for reflection, release, and communication with ancestors as we move through the darker half of the year.

                  What we explore in this episode:

                  • How to work with tarot as part of an ancestor or shadow ritual

                  • Gentle, emotional approaches to closure and moving forward

                  The Samhain Ritual Spread by Emerald Lotus Divination

                  This spread reminds us that Samhain’s true gift is reclamation—the return to our own sovereignty. When we stop running from endings, we find they aren’t endings at all, but the fertile soil of our next becoming.

                  This five-card Samhain Ritual Spread invites you to listen—to your body, your lineage, and your intuition—and to welcome the darker season as an ally, not an adversary.

                  
                  

                  NOTE: Use this layout in your Samhain ritual or anytime you feel called to commune with your ancestors and inner wisdom. You can pair your reading with candlelight, soft music, or a cup of something warm—apple cider, herbal tea, or cacao—to bring the magic of the season into your space.

                  1. The Darker Half of My Year - Five of Cups (Reversed)

                  The reversed Five of Cups signals that you’ve already met your grief and held it with both hands. Now, you’re ready to move with it rather than be defined by it. The sorrow that once felt like an anchor becomes a teacher. The cups that spilled may never refill, but the ones still standing are enough.

                  2. What My Ancestors Want Me to Know - Nine of Pentacles (Reversed)

                  Your ancestors whisper: Rest is sacred. The reversed Nine of Pentacles calls attention to the imbalance between constant striving and genuine self-tending. Luxury doesn’t always mean indulgence—sometimes it means stillness, warmth, or doing nothing at all.

                  3. Why This Message Is Important - King of Cups

                  The King of Cups arrives as a mirror of emotional mastery. This card reminds you that calm and compassion are not weaknesses but forms of spiritual authority. When you nurture yourself as deeply as you nurture others, your empathy expands without depletion.

                  4. How I Can Protect Myself From Negative Energy - Justice (Reversed)

                  Something in your energy field feels out of alignment. Justice reversed asks you to pause and assess what feels unbalanced or unfair. Protection begins not with walls, but with boundaries rooted in clarity. Remember the wisdom: what you allow is what will continue.

                  5. The Shadow Aspect Calling for Exploration - Strength

                  Strength invites you to explore gentleness as a form of power. True confidence isn’t domination; it’s the discipline to stay soft even in chaos. Your challenge this season is to lead with patience and inner steadiness. Strength asks you to see that compassion for yourself is the foundation of all resilience.

                    What we explore in this episode:

                    • From The Grave Tarot Spread by Pamela Adkins of The Tarot Midwife

                    • How to use tarot as a bridge between the living and the departed

                    • Receive messages of guidance, closure, and renewal from the other side

                    From The Grave Tarot Spread The From the Grave Tarot Spread—also known as La Danse Macabre or The Dance of Death—comes from Pamela Adkins of The Tarot Midwife. It’s designed as a conversation with spirit, a way to receive messages from those who have passed or to understand what the unseen world wants to teach you about your current path.

                    This spread invites you to face mortality not with fear, but with reverence.

                    Note: It’s recommended to perform this spread somewhere quiet, perhaps even at a gravesite, or with ancestral offerings nearby. You may wish to light a candle, set out photos or mementos, and say aloud who you’re inviting to join the reading.

                    1. What situation in your life would the spirit like to address? - Five of Jugs (Five of Cups)

                    Loss and disappointment. The spirits draw attention to what has already spilled—relationships, opportunities, expectations. The Five of Jugs reminds us that clinging to what’s gone keeps us anchored in grief. The message: forgive yourself and move forward one day at a time.

                    2. What would the spirit like you to know about this situation? - Ace of Chilies (Reversed)

                    Your passion flickers, but it isn’t gone. The reversed Ace of Chilies (Wands) suggests that inspiration will return once you stop waiting for permission. Spirit wants you to know that the fire is already within you—it simply needs oxygen to burn brighter.

                    3. What advice does the spirit have for you? - The Hermit (Reversed)

                    You’ve walked the lonely path long enough. The Hermit reversed urges you to reach out for connection, mentorship, or guidance. Wisdom grows not only in solitude but in shared experience. Spirit’s advice: You don’t have to do this alone.

                    4. What will become of the situation if you follow this advice? - Eight of Chilies (Wands)

                    Momentum returns. The Eight of Chilies is a card of acceleration and clarity—of movement that feels blessed. When you allow yourself to receive support, everything begins to align. What once felt heavy now feels destined.

                    5. Parting Message from Spirit - Wheel of Fortune (Reversed)

                    The only constant is change. Spirit reminds you that life’s wheel keeps turning, no matter how tightly you cling to control. There is no “perfect outcome,” only participation. Surrender, spin the wheel, and trust yourself to meet whatever comes with grace.

                      What we explore in this episode:

                      • How to use tarot as a tool for shadow work

                      • What it means to find comfort and courage in impermanence

                    • • Recognize the emotional patterns that keep you from rest or release

                      
                      

                      The Skull and Bones Tarot Spread

                    This spread is not a gentle reading. It asks you to look closely at what you’ve buried and decide whether it’s time to dig or to let the earth reclaim it. But it’s also deeply loving. It reminds us that even decay has purpose. The cards, as always, mirror the natural world: cycles of bloom and fall, light and shadow, birth and rot. To resist death is to resist life.

                    1. The Death Within My Life - Queen of Cups (Reversed)

                    This card speaks of emotional exhaustion. She’s overextended, perhaps even numb from giving too much of herself. It asks to stop trying to hold everyone else’s grief and instead tend to my own heart. To rest. To refill. It’s not selfishness—it’s survival.

                    2. The Life Within My Death - The High Priestess

                    From the quiet of rest comes intuition. She sits at the threshold between worlds, serene and self-contained. She doesn’t fear mystery; she listens to it. This card whispered that the new life being born within me will not come through logic or productivity, but through stillness and inner knowing.

                    3. To Be a Better Human - Ten of Swords (Upright)

                    A classic symbol of painful endings, this card reminds me that sometimes the worst is simply over. It doesn’t need to be resurrected in my mind over and over. This card is the deep exhale after the storm—a prompt to stop identifying with suffering and start walking toward the horizon again.

                    4. To Be a Better Animal - Ten of Pentacles (Reversed)

                    This card speaks to imbalance in the body and home. It reminded me that my animal self needs care, not correction. I don’t need more perfection or planning. I need grounding. Food that comforts. Rest that restores. The message here is simple: honor the body you have.

                    5. To Be a Better Skeleton - Six of Cups (Upright)

                    This is the tender heart of the spread. This card invites us to remember innocence—to find joy in simple, fleeting things. To be a better skeleton means to hold life lightly, knowing that everything passes, and that beauty exists precisely because it is impermanent.

                    6. To Be a Dancing One - The Fool (Upright)

                    The Fool closes the spread like a sunrise after a long night. The message is pure and powerful: you are free to begin again. Transformation isn’t about erasing what came before—it’s about stepping forward with curiosity and courage. The Fool teaches us to live with open palms, trusting that what falls away will always make space for something new.

As the veil thins, we honor our ancestors, face our fears, and listen for messages from beyond.

                      • The Samhain (saa-win) Spread from New Age Hipster

                      • Rituals and reflections for honoring ancestors during the witch’s new year

                      • What “seeing through the veil” really means in tarot practice

                      • Facing fears and releasing outdated beliefs

                      The Samhain Tarot SpreadSamhain (pronounced saa-win) marks the moment when the veil between worlds thins—the season of remembrance, endings, and deep reflection. It’s a time to honor those who came before, to release old stories, and to listen to what whispers beyond the veil. 

                      While the world calls it Halloween, witches know it as the season of reconnection and rebirth, when death becomes the doorway back to life. As the veil thins, remembrance and release entwine. This four-card spread helps you honor your lineage, see clearly through the mist, and compost outdated stories so renewal can take root.

                      The Prompts:

                      1. How to Honor Your Ancestors - What offering, story, or act of remembrance can bring you closer to them?

                      2. How to See Through the Veil - What intuitive practice will help you hear what your guides are whispering?

                      3. Fears to Face and Release - Which shadow asks to be witnessed and loved into transformation?

                      4. A Message from Your Ancestors - Guidance, blessing, or reassurance from beyond the veil.

                    • 1. How to honor your ancestors - Nine of Cups (Reversed). Something is blocking the flow of pleasure and satisfaction. Your ancestors may be asking you to return to simple joys—movement, self-care, food, or art—as ways of remembering them. Honor your lineage through pleasure, not just ritual.
                      2. How to see through the veil - The Sun. Clarity can be blinding at first. The Sun reminds you that revelation comes through warmth and illumination, not fear. Your ancestors bring joy and knowledge, guiding you toward a new, radiant self beyond transformation.
                      3. Fears to face and release - King of Swords (Reversed). The fear of uncertainty. Of not knowing what’s next. This reversal invites surrender. Let go of the need to plan every step ahead. True wisdom arises in flexibility, not control.
                      4. A message from your ancestors - Ten of Swords (Reversed). The worst is over. What feels like an ending is really a clearing for rebirth. Your ancestors remind you that even when the path feels empty or unclear, you are in the sacred in-between—the composting of the old to make way for the new.

                      • The power of acceptance, community, and self-care as alchemy

                      The Cauldron Tarot SpreadHalloween and Samhain mark the turning of the year—when the veil thins, the air sharpens, and the invitation to transform becomes irresistible. 

                      This spread mirrors the cycle of fire, vessel, and brew—the core of all creation magic—inviting you to stir your own becoming between now and Yule.

                      The Prompts:

                      1. The Fire - That which inspires you and keeps you engaged with the world and your magic

                      2. The Cauldron - How your desire can be transformed into a tool to reshape your life in a way that supports your goal

                      3. The Swirling Brew - The as-yet-unknown energies that you can connect with between now and Yule to help you manifest your dream

                    1) The Fire - The Guide (Inheritance & Correction)

                    Your spark comes from setting things right. You’ve inherited stories, fears, and wounds from those who came before you, but healing is your birthright. Keep showing up for your magic, even if the lesson feels heavy. Progress comes from practice, not perfection.

                    2) The Cauldron - The Founder (Foundations & Community)

                    Transformation is rooted in connection. Build your foundations through mutual care—asking for help, offering help, and healing old stories that keep you isolated. True community is forged through honesty and rest.

                    3) The Swirling Brew - The Shepherd (Celebration & Family)

                    Between now and Yule, choose warmth over withdrawal. Reach out to your people. Host something small and joyful. Guide your flock with care and let yourself be guided too.

                        What we explore in this episode:

                        • The Unabashed Pumpkin Trash Tarot Spread by Evie at Interrobang Tarot

                        • How to balance sweetness, honesty, pleasure, and boundaries

                        • Reflections on burnout, gratitude, and collective care

                        • • Why “fun” and “feminine joy” are forms of rebellion during difficult times

                          The Unabashed Pumpkin Trash Tarot Spread

                        The medicine of the season is simple: protect your joy like it’s sacred.

                        This four-card spread invites you to reclaim pleasure, honesty, and play in equal measure, no matter what the “too much” police might say.

                        The Prompts:

                        1. The Sugar - where or when to be sweet

                        2. The Spice - when or where to be brutally honest, even if it makes others uncomfortable

                        3. The Everything Nice - something to enjoy with greater gusto

                        4. The Haters Can Go Suck a Pumpkin - strategies for boundary setting with baseless critics and pleasure police

                        1) The Sugar - Two of Swords (Reversed)

                        Be gentle with yourself through indecision and burnout. Even difficult revelations are worthy of sweetness. Compassion, not criticism, helps the heart heal.

                        2) The Spice - Judgment

                        Be honest about what’s ending and what’s next. Reflection and reevaluation are sacred acts of truth-telling, even if they unsettle others.

                        3) Everything Nice - Page of Pentacles (Reversed)

                        It’s okay to feel unmotivated. Relish your rest. Short-term goals and small comforts count as sacred survival this season.

                        4) The Haters Can Go Suck a Pumpkin - Ace of Pentacles (Reversed)

                        Name what drains you and say no. Build boundaries around your energy, your joy, and your resources, especially from those who profit off your exhaustion.

                          In today’s episode, we’re exploring the Autumn Recalibration Spread from Angelorum Tarot—a three-card layout that helps you balance your lunar and solar selves to find harmony through the changing seasons.

                          What we explore in this episode:

                          • The Autumn Recalibration Spread by Angelorum Tarot

                          • The relationship between the lunar (intuitive) and solar (active) parts of self

                          • Integrating tarot insights into daily rituals for nourishment and balance

                          Your lunar self asks for rest and imagination, your solar self seeks structure and satisfaction, and together they call you to practice nourishment as transformation.

                          This three-card spread invites reflection on the balance between your inner and outer worlds. It connects lunar intuition with solar structure—guiding you toward wholeness as autumn deepens.

                          The Prompts:

                          1. What my Lunar Self needs now - your wild, intuitive, imaginative side.

                          2. What my Solar Self needs now - your logical, structured, outward-facing side.

                          3. The most loving way to harmonize the needs of both.

                          1. What My Lunar Self Needs Now - Seven of Wands (Reversed)

                          Your lunar self is tired. The Seven of Wands reversed shows exhaustion and overextension. Let yourself rest. Creative renewal will come naturally once you stop forcing output.

                          2. What My Solar Self Needs Now - Nine of Cups

                          Your solar self craves stability and comfort. It’s time to create habits around contentment, joy, and small luxuries. Slow success is still success—celebrate it.

                          3. How to Harmonize the Two - Three of Wands (Reversed)

                          Patience is your path to balance. You may feel delays or lack of direction, but harmony comes from intentional action. The way forward is warmth and nourishment: cook, move gently, and trust that clarity blooms when you’re well-fed and well-rested.

                              Welcome back to Everyday Tarot, your daily dive into the divine wisdom of the cards. Season 17 is all about seasonal tarot spreads for Autumn—cozy, reflective layouts to help you release what’s no longer needed, reconnect with your body, and plant seeds for what’s next.

                              In today’s episode, we’re doing the Autumn Leaves Tarot Spread, a five-card layout that mirrors the rhythm of the season: release, rest, and renewal.

                              What we explore in this episode:

                              • The Autumn Leaves Tarot Spread by Incandescent Tarot

                              • How to use tarot to move through burnout, transformation, and creative renewal

                              • Seasonal self-care practices and cozy rituals to stay grounded in body and spirit

                              Autumn Leaves Tarot SpreadAutumn is the bridge between bright creation and deep rest. It asks us to shed, slow down, and listen—not just to our minds, but to our bodies and surroundings. Working with tarot in this season helps us honor cycles of transformation. Referenced deck: The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington

                              
                              

                              This five-card spread forms a gentle “V” shape, mirroring falling leaves. Each position guides you through a process of release, reflection, and renewal:

                              1. A past experience or memory you’re ready to let go of - Nine of Swords (Reversed) Overthinking and mental tension are ready to be released. It’s time to get out of your head and into your body.
                              2. A behavior to retire - Death (Upright) Transformation requires letting go of old patterns. Endings make room for the new, just as trees shed their leaves.
                              3. A seed for something new - Three of Pentacles Collaboration and community hold the key to your next chapter. Growth happens through shared vision and teamwork.
                              4. A way to care for yourself and stay cozy - Eight of Cups Release what’s draining your energy. Rest, solitude, and gentle rituals help you reset and make space for joy.
                              5. What will give you warmth and energy - The Empress (Reversed) Reclaim your sensuality and pleasure as sacred practices. Take your delights seriously—they are the soil of your creativity.

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Achilles—the near-invincible hero of the Iliad, son of a sea goddess, warrior of Troy.

                                What we explore in this episode:

                                • The myth of Achilles

                                • Achilles as a queer archetype

                                • Tarot cards resonant with Achilles: The Chariot, The Strength, The Lovers, 9 of Pentacles

                                The Myth of Achilles

                                Achilles, son of the sea goddess Thetis and the mortal king Peleus, was destined for both greatness and tragedy. To protect him, his mother dipped him into the River Styx—rendering him invulnerable everywhere except the heel she held. Famed as the mightiest warrior of the Trojan War, Achilles’ power was matched only by his heart’s depth. His love for Patroclus, his closest companion and confidant, revealed a tenderness beneath the armor. When Patroclus was slain in battle, Achilles’ grief consumed him, leading to both vengeance and his own downfall by a fatal arrow to his heel.

                                Achilles as a Queer ArchetypeAchilles’ story is one of tenderness wrapped in valor, love beneath armor. Ancient poets described his relationship with Patroclus as closer than blood—each half of the other’s soul. To queer readers, this love defied the rigid masculine ideals of its time, showing that vulnerability and affection could coexist with power.

                                Achilles & TarotAchilles’ myth echoes through tarot in cards of will, courage, and the cost of love. These cards reveal Achilles’ duality: the hero driven by destiny and the human shaped by love.

                                • The Chariot - determination, drive, and pursuit of destiny

                                • Strength - courage balanced with compassion

                                • The Lovers - the sacred bond between equals that challenges fate

                                • Nine of Pentacles - hard-won confidence, self-reliance

                                Protection isn’t only shields and spears—it’s clear no’s, closed doors, and fierce devotion to what and whom you love. Justice begins at your own gate.

                                Welcome back to Everyday Tarot! Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Aphrodite—goddess of love, sex, beauty, and fertility.

                                What we explore in this episode:

                                • The myth of Aphrodite

                                • Aphrodite as a queer deity

                                • Tarot cards resonant with Aphrodite: The Empress, The Lovers, Two of Cups

                                The Myth of AphroditeLong before she was the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite was a fusion of older deities—Ishtar, Astarte, and Inanna—goddesses of war, fertility, and cosmic power. She was not simply beauty or romance, but the force of life itself: ruling birth, death, art, and desire. Born from sea foam after Uranus’s severed body fell into the waves, Aphrodite emerged fully formed from both masculine and feminine origins. She was worshiped from Cyprus to Rome as Venus, Queen of Heaven and Sea, goddess of pleasure and fate.

                                Aphrodite as a Queer DeityAphrodite’s queerness shines through her multiplicity. In Cyprus, statues depict her with both beard and breasts, embodying gender fluidity long before modern language for it existed. Ancient writers called her Aphroditos, the male aspect of the goddess, honored through cross-dressing rituals where men wore women’s garments and women wore men’s. 

                                Aphrodite & Tarot

                                Aphrodite’s energy appears throughout the tarot wherever beauty, balance, and intimacy unfold. Together, these cards celebrate Aphrodite’s lesson: that love, in all its forms, is revolutionary.

                                • The Empress - creative abundance and self love, sensual pleasure as divine expression

                                • The Lovers - union and choice, the sacred mirror between self and other

                                • Two of Cups - connection and emotional openness

                                This rune invites us to slow down and savor the moment. Love is not always pursuit or passion; sometimes it’s presence.

                                • How do I express love through stillness rather than striving?

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Poseidon—god of the sea, storms, earthquakes, and horses.

                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                  • The myth of Poseidon

                                  • Poseidon as a queer deity

                                  • Tarot cards resonant with Poseidon: The Moon, Suit of Cups, The Hanged Man

                                  The Myth of PoseidonBorn of Kronos and Rhea and brother to Zeus and Hades, Poseidon rose as lord of the sea, earthquakes, and horses. With his trident he could call up storms or still the waters, shake the earth, and usher in fertility or drought. Older strands of the myth remember him less as an Olympian conqueror and more as the Spouse of Earth—a primal, generative force tied to the ocean’s cyclical power. 

                                  Poseidon as a Queer DeityAncient texts and odes hint at Poseidon’s fluid desire and love beyond gender. In one story, he takes the youth Pelops as a lover and companion, teaching him to drive the divine chariot and gifting him winged horses. Like many Greek gods, Poseidon’s relationships defied modern labels, rooted instead in eros and power, mentorship and mythic connection. As a queer archetype, Poseidon embodies emotional fluidity and non-binary affection.

                                  Poseidon & TarotPoseidon’s energy flows through the tarot where emotion, intuition, and balance collide. Together, these cards capture Poseidon’s lesson: to embrace our depths without drowning in them, and to find equilibrium between feeling and form.

                                  • The Moon - dream logic, fear and fascination with the unknown

                                  • Suit of Cups - intimacy, empathy, devotion, and the surge of feeling that can heal or overwhelm

                                  • The Hanged Man - surrender and suspension, like floating below the surface

                                  This card invites fairness and balance before transition. It asks us to bring our lives into alignment, to organize our energy before entering the next wave of change.

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Ishtar—Babylonian goddess of love, war, and desire, the Queen of Heaven, the Holy Whore.

                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                  • The myth of Ishtar

                                  • Ishtar as a queer deity

                                  • Tarot cards resonant with Ishtar: The High Priestess, The Star

                                  The Myth of IshtarIshtar—also known as Inanna or Astarte—was worshiped as the Queen of Heaven, ruler of fertility, desire, and the cycles of life and death. She appears in the Epic of Gilgamesh as a radiant goddess of both love and warfare, capable of granting abundance or unleashing chaos.

                                  In one of her most famous myths, Ishtar descends into the Underworld to rescue her lover Tammuz. Her absence halts all fertility on earth until her return—symbolizing death, renewal, and the turning of seasons. She is at once celestial and chthonic, embodying the paradox that creation and destruction are twin flames of the same divine force.

                                  Ishtar as a Queer Deity

                                  Ishtar collapses every boundary: between male and female, sacred and profane, mortal and divine. Her temples honored gala and kurgarru—queer, trans, and intersex priests who embodied her power to blur and transcend gender. Ancient hymns describe her as one who “turns a man into a woman and a woman into a man,” sanctifying transition itself as holy. Depicted with wings, a lion, and sometimes even a beard, Ishtar personifies sovereignty through multiplicity. She blesses sex workers, warriors, and mystics alike—those who live beyond societal constraints.

                                  From Norse Goddess Rune Oracle by Rebecca Joy Stark and illustrated by Sharon McLeod, I pulled the Seed of Life Fertility, Creation, New Beginnings

                                  This rune speaks of growth born in darkness. Like Ishtar’s descent, it reminds us that the void is not emptiness but potential—the womb of transformation. Tend your seeds with patience; what you plant in shadow will soon seek the light.

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Hermes—the winged trickster, messenger of the gods, and master of language, alchemy, and transformation.

                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                  • The myth of Hermes

                                  • Hermes as a queer deity

                                  • Tarot cards resonant with Hermes: The Magician, The Fool, The World, 2 of Cups, The Hermit

                                  The Myth of HermesHermes—known as Mercury to the Romans and Thoth in Egypt—was a god of magic, letters, medicine, and occult wisdom. He moved freely between worlds as a psychopomp, guiding souls between life and death. Hermes was also a trickster and inventor: credited with creating language, measurement, music, and alchemy. His staff, the caduceus, entwined by serpents, symbolizes balance and transformation.

                                  Hermes as a Queer DeityHermes embodies queerness through duality and divine androgyny. In ancient cults, he was worshiped alongside Aphrodite as Hermaphroditus, a deity of wholeness and fluid gender expression. His myths include love stories with both gods and mortals—men and women alike—revealing a god who transcends the constraints of binary identity. As patron of travelers, messengers, and liminal souls, Hermes protects queer, trans, and intersex people who navigate boundaries and self-redefinition.

                                  Hermes & TarotHermes’ presence threads through the tarot wherever curiosity, knowledge, and sacred mischief converge. Together, these archetypes capture Hermes’ essence as the bridge between beginnings and endings, words and silence, body and spirit.

                                  • The Magician - power through focus, communication, and creation

                                  • The Fool - fearless beginnings, curiosity, and trust in the journey

                                  • The World - completion, unity, and the alchemy of opposites

                                  • Two of Cups - harmony, dialogue, sacred connection between equals

                                  • The Hermit - inner wisdom and illumination through solitude

                                  From The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, I pulled the Borage - Six of Water (Reversed)

                                  Borage reminds us to cherish friendship and community, offering freely without attachment to outcome. When reversed, it calls us to reconnect with love, joy, and presence rather than intellectual control.

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Narcissus—the beautiful youth of myth whose reflection became both his revelation and undoing.

                                    What we explore in this episode:

                                    • The myth of Narcissus

                                    • Narcissus as a queer and asexual archetype

                                    • Tarot cards resonant with Narcissus: The Page of Cups (Upright/Reversed), The Hanged Man,  The Magician

                                    The Myth of NarcissusIn the Greek tradition, Narcissus was the beautiful son of a river god and a nymph—desired by many but devoted to none. His mother was told he would live long—if he never knew himself, so was kept from mirrors and still waters. 

                                    When the nymph Echo fell in love with him, he rejected her advances; humiliated and grief-stricken, she faded until only her voice remained. As punishment, the goddess Aphrodite caused Narcissus to fall in love with his own reflection. Unable to embrace the image he adored, he wasted away by the poolside until his body dissolved into white and red blossoms—the first daffodils, also called narcissus.

                                    Narcissus as a Queer DeityNarcissus’s story has long been flattened into a warning against vanity, but beneath that surface lies a complex myth about self-recognition, queerness, and consent. Rather than arrogance, his refusal to return Echo’s affection can be seen as a declaration of autonomy. Narcissus does not die from ego, but from being punished for self-awareness in a world that demanded conformity. Modern retellings through queer and asexual lenses reframe Narcissus as a symbol of self-sovereignty rather than self-obsession.

                                    Narcissus & TarotNarcissus’s myth appears throughout tarot as a meditation on self-awareness, reflection, and liberation from imposed narratives. These cards remind us that introspection and self-knowledge are sacred:

                                    • Page of Cups (Upright)- Emotional curiosity, tenderness

                                    • Page of Cups (Reversed) - Escapism, self-illusion

                                    • The Hanged Man - Shifting perspective, surrender

                                    • The Magician - Creative manifestation

                                    From The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, I pulled the Four of Air (Lavender)

                                    This card calls for retreat, calm, and the restoration of boundaries. Lavender’s energy clears tension, soothes the mind, and reminds us that rest is not withdrawal—it’s regeneration.

                                    • Where in my life am I being called to pause and truly see myself?

                                    • How can I practice self-regard without guilt or apology?

                                    Welcome back to Everyday Tarot! Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Isis—Egyptian goddess of magic, healing, fertility, and transformation.

                                    What we explore in this episode:

                                    • The myth of Isis

                                    • Isis as a queer deity

                                    • Tarot cards archetypes that resonate with Isis: The High Priestess, The Magician

                                    The Myth of IsisIsis—“the One Who Is All”—is one of the most beloved and enduring figures of Egyptian mythology. She is the giver of life, the mother of the sun, and the goddess who restores balance to the universe. Myths tell that Isis gathered the dismembered pieces of her beloved Osiris, breathed life into him, and conceived Horus—the sun reborn. As goddess of magic, medicine, and divine law, she rules both creation and death, the seen and unseen.

                                    Isis as a Queer DeityThough often remembered as the great mother, Isis’s power extends beyond maternal archetypes. She embodies self-sovereignty and gender transcendence—a goddess who affirms the sacredness of identity and transformation. One myth tells of Isis appearing to a pregnant woman named Telethusa, instructing her to raise her child Iphis as a boy despite being born a girl. When Iphis later fell in love with another woman (Ianthe), Isis transformed him into a man so the two could marry—an act of divine gender affirmation. For this, Isis is honored by many as a protector of trans and gender-expansive people, a goddess who sees the truth of one’s soul beyond physical form.

                                    This reversal invites gentle self-inquiry. It cautions against detachment and overthinking, calling us to reconnect heart and body. Merge intellect with intuition to wield clarity without severing compassion.

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Zeus—the lightning-bearing patriarch of Greek mythology.

                                      What we explore in this episode:

                                      • The myth of Zeus

                                      • Zeus as a queer deity

                                      • Tarot cards archetypes that resonate with Zeus: The Fool, The Emperor, Justice, Wheel of Fortune

                                      The Myth of ZeusZeus, ruler of Olympus and god of thunder and sky, is a figure of immense authority and appetite. Known for his lightning bolts and numerous affairs, he represents the archetype of dominance and creation—often through chaos. Ancient texts trace his lineage to Dyaus Pitar, or “Father Heaven,” linking him to other sky gods such as Jupiter and Odin. Though revered as patriarch, Zeus inherited his power by overthrowing his father Cronus and absorbing earlier matriarchal traditions once ruled by Gaia and Rhea.

                                      Zeus as a Queer DeityWhile often remembered for his authority and countless heterosexual liaisons, Zeus’s mythology also contains deeply queer undertones. Most notably his relationship with Ganymede, a mortal youth taken to Olympus as cupbearer to the gods, reveals ancient cultural dynamics of mentorship, eroticism, and power imbalance. Modern readers might view Zeus as bisexual or pansexual.

                                      Zeus & TarotZeus’s energy appears in tarot as both ruler and storm-bringer. The archetype reminds us that authority is not static. 

                                      • The Emperor - Authority, leadership, structure, and patriarchal energy

                                      • The Fool - New beginnings, impulsive adventure, divine foolishness

                                      • Justice - Balance, accountability, and divine retribution

                                      • Wheel of Fortune - Fate, transformation, the cyclical nature of change

                                      • King of Wands - Fire, confidence, creativity, and visionary power

                                      From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled the The Waker (Reversed) Awareness, Reflection

                                      This reversal reminds us that power without self-awareness becomes imbalance; reflection restores equilibrium. Just as the sky clears after a storm, self-inquiry clears our inner weather.

                                      • The Myth of Artemis

                                      Daughter of Zeus and twin to Apollo, Artemis strides the forest as huntress and moon goddess. In Greek and Roman strands (Artemis/Diana), she’s keeper of wild creatures, midwifery, and thresholds. Her emblems—bow, hounds, and moon—speak to precision, instinct, and night vision. She embodies the freedom of the woods and the clarity of a steady arrow: act cleanly, aim truly, and disturb as little as possible.

                                      Artemis as a Queer Deity

                                      In many readings, “virgin” meant sovereign—unmarried, self-ruled—not sexless. Artemis rejects compulsory coupling and chooses devotion to women, the wild, and her nymph cohort. Modern lenses find her across spectra: lesbian/bi, ace/aro, gender-nonconforming warrior-scholar of the forest. Her queerness is autonomy in action: centering chosen kin, consent, wilderness ethics, and a life beyond domestic scripts.

                                      Artemis & TarotArtemis’s energy runs through cards that honor intuition, discipline, and instinctual wisdom. Together, these cards remind us that Artemis teaches strength through stillness, clarity through intuition, and liberation through self-trust.

                                      • The Moon - Cycles, mystery, instinct, and illumination through darkness

                                      • The High Priestess - Sacred autonomy, inner knowing, and feminine sovereignty

                                      • The Hanged Man - Shifting perspectives, surrender, and liberation from old patterns

                                      • Strength - Gentle courage, emotional mastery, and harmony with nature

                                      • Suit of Swords - Clarity, precision, intellect, and truth as protection and power

                                        Welcome back to Everyday Tarot! Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Loki—the shapeshifting trickster god of Norse mythology.

                                        What we explore in this episode:

                                        • The myth of Loki

                                        • Loki as a queer deity

                                      • • Tarot cards that resonate with Loki: The Tower, The Fool, The Magician

                                        The Myth of Loki

                                      Loki is a master of change and contradiction—sometimes a helper to the gods, other times their greatest disruptor. Loki births both chaos and creation, giving life to the eight-legged horse Sleipnir after transforming into a mare. Their children include Hel, Fenrir, and Jörmungandr—each symbolizing endings, rebirth, and the cyclical nature of destruction and renewal.

                                      Loki as a Queer Deity

                                      Loki is a gender-fluid god who embodies both masculine and feminine energies and experiences both roles fully. Loki embodies queerness through shapeshifting and gender fluidity, defying every binary—god and monster, mother and father, destroyer and creator. Through Loki, we see that rebellion, chaos, and humor can all be forms of divine creativity.

                                      Loki & Tarot

                                      Loki’s energy weaves through tarot’s most transformative cards—each reflecting their chaos, creativity, and fluidity.

                                      • The Tower - Sudden change, disruption, and the power of necessary destruction

                                      • The Fool - Playful risk, curiosity, and stepping boldly into the unknown

                                      • The Magician - Transformation through intention, wit, and limitless potential

                                      This reminds us that even in the midst of chaos, stillness is possible. It calls us to release control, to stop swimming against the current, and to find stability within ourselves.

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Pan—the wildwood god of music, desire, and fertility.

                                        What we explore in this episode:

                                        • The myth of Pan

                                        • Pan as a queer deity

                                      • • Tarot cards archetypes that resonate with Pan: The Devil, The Fool

                                        
                                        

                                        The Myth of Pan

                                      Half-man, half-goat, Pan is one of the oldest Greek deities, tied to wilderness, music, fertility, and the kind of untamed joy that refuses to be boxed in. Pan was linked to Dionysus, the god of ecstatic celebration, and often roamed with satyrs and nymphs. Later, Christianity demonized Pan’s image—his horns and hooves reinterpreted as symbols of the Devil.

                                      Pan as a Queer Deity

                                      Pan’s queerness is fluid and expansive. In modern readings, he embodies pansexual or bisexual energy—attraction without limitation, pleasure without shame. His attraction to everyone, his refusal to follow rigid rules, and his unapologetic delight in the sensual world make him an icon of queer joy and survival. Pan’s lesson is not “anything goes,” but “everything chosen” with clarity, boundaries, and care. 

                                      Pan & TarotPan’s wild, joyful, and untamed spirit dances through several tarot archetypes—reminding us that pleasure, embodiment, and instinct are sacred forms of wisdom.

                                      • The Devil - Desire, embodiment, and reclaiming pleasure as sacred, not sinful

                                      • The Fool - Freedom, spontaneity, and the bliss of living without restraint

                                      From Norse Goddess Rune Oracle by Rebecca Joy Stark and illustrated by Sharon McLeod, I pulled the Gná Partnership, Momentum, Transportation

                                      It speaks of reciprocity and movement—the balance between rider and horse, between self and others, between freedom and grounding.

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Athena—patron of Athens, goddess of wisdom, warfare, art, and reason. 

                                          In this episode, we'll explore her myth, queerness, and resonances with tarot archetypes of clarity, leadership, and disciplined creativity.

                                          What we explore in this episode:

                                          • The myth of Athena

                                          • Athena as a queer deity

                                        • • Tarot cards resonant with Athenian themes: Emperor, Queen of Swords, Hierophant

                                          
                                          

                                          The Myth of Athena

                                        Born fully armed from Zeus’s head after he swallowed Metis, Athena is the patron of Athens, keeper of the owl and the aegis, mistress of crafts and counsel. She champions heroes, founds institutions, arbitrates disputes, and weds wisdom to wartime strategy, shaping civic life through skill, order, and foresight.

                                        Athena as a Queer Deity

                                        Athena’s queerness shows up as chastity and virginity, in some traditions, and as an asexual or aromantic archetype in modern readings—sovereign over her body, uninterested in compulsory pairings. 

                                        As a gender-nonconforming warrior-scholar who privileges intellect, craft, and civic duty, she stands with those outside rigid roles: queer, trans, ace/aro, and anyone claiming autonomy and self-definition as sacred.

                                        Tarot & Athena

                                        In tarot, Athena appears wherever reason meets courage: cards of justice, tradition, and piercing clarity. She calls us to disciplined creativity and just leadership, where truth is sharpened by practice, and courage guided by reason.

                                        • Queen of Swords - clarity, candor, independent thought

                                        • Emperor - strategic leadership, structure, governance

                                        • Hierophant - tradition, institutional wisdom, learning by practice

Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today we turn to Dionysus—ecstatic liberator, boundary-crosser, and patron of queer joy, embodied freedom, and sacred revelry. 

                                          In this episode, we'll explore his myth, queerness, and resonances with tarot archetypes of transformation, celebration, and creative revolt.

                                          What we explore in this episode:

                                          • The myth of Dionysus

                                          • Dionysus as a queer deity

                                        • • Tarot cards resonant with Dionysian themes: The Fool, Temperance, The Tower, The Sun, Three of Cups, Four of Wands

                                          The Myth of Dionysus

                                        Dionysus is the twice-born god: first from Semele, then sewn into Zeus’s thigh and brought to term—a myth already bending binaries. He is torn apart and reborn, descends to the underworld and returns with gifts, presides over theater and trance, and gathers devotees into ecstatic community.

                                        Dionysus as a Queer Deity

                                        As a liminal deity, Dionysus blurs lines—mortal and divine, masculine and feminine, sane and mad, civilized and wild—honoring truth found in altered states, communal joy, and honest feeling. 

                                        In many traditions, he is patron to those outside norms: queer, trans, intersex, gender-expansive, and all who reclaim the body as sacred.

                                        In tarot, Dionysus emerges in cards that hold both revelry and upheaval—the sweetness of the vine and the intoxication of the wine. He calls us to embrace complexity: joy intertwined with sorrow, freedom forged through dissolution, and creativity that blooms at the very edge of boundaries

                                          Amber is tied to protection, healing, courage, attraction, and abundance. Long carried as a sacred talisman, it uplifts the spirit, fortifies the aura, and connects us with ancestral memory.

                                          In this episode, we explore its myth, magic, and its resonance with tarot archetypes of vitality, transformation, and solar strength.

                                          What we explore in this episode:

                                          • The myths and magical qualities of Amber

                                          • Astrological associations with the Sun and Leo

                                          Amber: Myth, Magic & MeaningAmber, though not a mineral but fossilized tree resin, has been revered since the Paleolithic era. Known as “solidified sunlight,” it was seen as a gift of the Ocean Mother, often washing ashore and gleaming like gold. In Baltic and Norse myth, amber was called the “tears of the sun” and linked to the goddess Freya, who wore an amber necklace and wept amber tears.

                                          In magical practice, Amber has been used to:

                                          • Protect against curses, the evil eye, and ill health

                                          • Uplift mood and break stagnant energy

                                          • Attract love, luck, money, and success

                                          • Magnify beauty and enhance confidence

                                          • Strengthen bonds with spirit guides and familiars

                                          Amber is especially sacred when paired with Jet, together called the stones of the High Priestess. As a fossil, it awakens ancient memory and the wisdom of ancestors, connecting us to cycles of death, renewal, and the Crone archetype.

                                          Astrologically, Amber resonates with the Sun and the sign of Leo, radiating vitality, courage, and creative fire. Its elemental ties to Fire and Spirit bring clarity, warmth, and resilience.

                                          Amber & the TarotAmber’s energy shines through the Major Arcana as Strength, embodying courage and gentle solar vitality; as The Chariot, driving fiery will and forward motion; as The Sun, radiating joy and clarity; and as Death, carrying ancestral wisdom through endings and transformation.

                                          In the Minor Arcana, Amber connects with the Wands suit, especially the Witch of Wands (the Knight of Wands), expressing erotic creativity, sex magic, and embodied passion.

                                            Emerald: Myth, Magic & MeaningEmerald—Smaragdus (Σμάραγδος) in Greek—has been revered for thousands of years. A green variety of beryl, its inclusions mirror the natural world and remind us of the beauty in imperfection. 

                                            In sacred traditions, emerald has been linked to the Earth Mother, the Goddess of Love, and countless myths of renewal. Egyptians carved talismans of Isis in emerald for eternal youth, Aztec stories speak of emerald births, and medieval legends tied it to the Holy Grail itself.

                                            Emerald & the Tarot

                                            In the Minor Arcana, emerald’s themes shine through the Pentacles suit. The Ace of Pentacles reflects new beginnings, embodiment, and prosperity, while the Seven of Pentacles emphasizes patience, long-tended growth, and surrender. In truth, its fertile and grounding energy flows through all Pentacles cards.

                                            Aquamarine’s name means “sea water,” and its gentle hues mirror ocean waves. For centuries, it has been carried by sailors for safe passage, revered by healers for its purifying powers, and chosen by mystics as a tool for scrying.

                                            In sacred traditions, aquamarine is associated with the Ocean Mother archetype, such as Yemaya, Saraswati, and Tethys. Aquamarine carries the blessings of the Great Mother, nourishing us with peace while guiding us through transformation.

                                            Aquamarine & the Tarot

                                            Aquamarine’s gentle, oceanic energy finds its reflection in several tarot archetypes. It carries the healing flow and serenity of The Star, the abundant creativity of The Empress, and the deep emotional wisdom of the Queen of Cups. Its grounding yet nurturing qualities also echo the Queen of Pentacles, while the Two of Cups highlights its themes of harmony, partnership, and heartfelt connection. Finally, the dreamy intuition of The Moon mirrors aquamarine’s ability to clear away illusions and reveal hidden truths.

Season 15 is all about tarot and crystals, and today we cast our gaze onto Opal—a semi-precious stone long associated with mystery, beauty, and transformation.

                                              Known as the Queen of Gems, Opal has been treasured for centuries. Cultures from ancient Greece to India associated their iridescence with lightning, rainbows, and divine beauty. Legends describe opal as a stone of protection, invisibility, and even astral travel.

                                              In this episode, we explore opal’s elemental and astrological ties, its role in goddess traditions, and how its shifting colors mirror our own cycles of transformation.

                                              What we explore in this episode:

                                            • • The myths and magical qualities of opal
                                              • Astrological associations with Moon, Neptune, Venus, Mercury, Cancer, Libra, and Scorpio

                                            • Opal: Myth, Magic & Meaning

                                            Opal has long been surrounded by myth and magic—said to be formed from lightning in Greek and Roman lore, linked to rainbows and divine fire in Arabic tradition, and born from a rainbow goddess in Indian legend. Its shifting colors mark it as a bridge between worlds, tied to invisibility, hidden wisdom, and dream journeys. 

                                            In magical practice, Opal is often used to:

                                            • Enhance psychic abilities and intuitive vision

                                            • Support dreamwork, astral travel, and spiritual journeys

                                            • Connect with goddess energy, especially the Triple Goddess archetype

                                            Its elemental signatures are Water and Spirit, while its astrological ties include the Moon, Neptune, Venus, and Mercury. Opal is especially connected to the zodiac signs of Cancer, Libra, and Scorpio.

                                            Opal & the Tarot

                                            When viewed through the lens of tarot, opal’s shimmering and transformative nature connects with The Moon and The High Priestess, cards of intuition, dreams, and hidden wisdom. It also resonates with the Pages, bringing curiosity and fresh beginnings, and the Aces, embodying pure energy and potential. 

                                            Like the stone’s dazzling display of color, these cards encourage us to explore the unseen, the liminal, and the possibilities waiting to emerge.

                                              Black Tourmaline is one of the most trusted allies for protection and energetic clearing. For centuries, it has been revered by magicians, shamans, and healers alike—used as a psychic shield, a grounding anchor, and a symbol of resilience.

                                              In this episode, we explore the lore of this prized stone of protection, its magical correspondences, and its resonance with tarot archetypes of transformation, protection, and resilience.

                                              What we explore in this episode:

                                            Black Tourmaline belongs to a complex family of aluminum borosilicates mixed with iron, magnesium, and other trace metals, which give rise to a wide range of colors. Ancient magicians carried it to ward off earth spirits and protect themselves during ritual. 

                                            Connected to the root chakra, Black Tourmaline brings us back to strength. It clears fear, restores balance, and helps us feel secure even in difficult environments.

                                            In magical practice, Black Tourmaline is often used to:

                                            • Create psychic protection and dispel heavy or stagnant energy

                                            • Ground the body and spirit through the root chakra

                                            • Support calm, focus, and confidence in difficult environments

                                            Astrologically, Black Tourmaline is tied to Saturn and the element of Earth, embodying structure, discipline, and stability. It carries the resilience of Capricorn and the balancing influence of Libra, offering both grounded strength and harmony in relationships.

It reflects the Death card, showing us that endings open the path to growth. It connects with the Knights, guardians of courage and purposeful action. And it mirrors The Fool, reminding us that stepping into the unknown is safest when we carry our own clarity, resilience, and protection.

                                            Saga, the goddess who lives beneath the waterfall, offers wisdom through her gift of seeing. She teaches us to trust our intuition, honor the ebb and flow of emotions, and allow clarity to come through deep listening.

Moss Agate is also said to guard against fae mischief, honoring the Earth Mother and Mistress of Magic while serving as a bridge to the Fairy Queen and the liminal realm of the fae.

                                                Welcome back to Every Day Tarot, your daily dive into the wisdom of the cards. Season 15 is all about tarot and crystals, and today we’re exploring the radiant, rainbow energy of Anandalite.

                                                Anandalite, also known as Aurora Quartz, is a naturally iridescent variety of quartz that reflects shimmering colors like the northern lights. Its name means “divine bliss,” and it’s a crystal of awakening, harmony, and integration.

                                                In this episode, we explore Anandalite’s unique formation, its magical correspondences, and its resonance with tarot archetypes of renewal and balance.

                                                Anandalite: Myth, Magic & Meaning

                                              Anandalite’s prismatic glow comes from the way light bends through its internal structure, creating spectral flashes of violet, gold, blue, and green. The rainbow shimmer is said to bridge the grounded energy of Earth with the expansive perspective of the cosmos.

                                              Found in the Himalayas, Anandalite often grows in clusters that resemble snowy peaks—a fitting image for a crystal whose Sanskrit name means “abode of the snow.”

                                              In magical practice, Anandalite is used to:

                                              • Support spiritual awakening and intuitive clarity

                                              • Balance and harmonize energy across the chakras

                                              • Bridge earthly routines with cosmic perspective

                                              Anandalite & the Tarot

                                              Anandalite, named for divine bliss, is like a rainbow in the storm—steadying the heart while opening higher senses. Anandalite resonates with archetypes of illumination and integration. 

                                              It mirrors The Star, offering renewal and divine guidance. It resonates with Temperance, teaching balance, flow, and integration. It connects to the Three of Pentacles, reminding us of the importance of collaboration and shared purpose. Its lesson: true growth comes through harmony, integration, and trusting in the process.

Season 15 is all about tarot and crystals, and today we’re exploring the abundant and protective energy of jade.

                                                  Jade has long been associated with peace, luck, and longevity. It is a sacred stone of the goddess, a symbol of compassion and fairness, and a companion for those seeking harmony in life and love.

                                                  In this episode, we explore jade’s myths, magical correspondences, and its resonance with tarot archetypes of truth, balance, and devotion.

                                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                                • • The myths and magical qualities of jade
                                                  • Astrological associations with Venus, the Moon, Libra, Virgo, and Gemini

                                                • Jade: Myth, Magic & Meaning

                                                Jade refers to two different minerals—nephrite and jadeite—both known for their strength, beauty, and resilience. Across the globe, jade has been valued above gold, revered as a stone of fertility, peace, luck, and eternity.

                                                In Mesopotamia, jade appeared in the descent of Inanna; in China, it was carved into images of Kuan Yin, goddess of compassion; and in Central America, the Aztec goddess Chalchiuhtlicue was believed to dwell within jade itself.

                                                In magical practice, jade has been used for:

                                                • Attracting luck, prosperity, and abundance

                                                • Protection for mothers and children

                                                • Inviting fairness, truth, and justice

                                                • Supporting compassion, romance, and healing

                                                Jade’s elemental signatures are Earth, Water, and Spirit. Its astrological associations include Venus, the Moon, Libra, Virgo, and Gemini. It is sacred to the goddess archetypes of love, the Earth Mother, and the Muse.

                                                Jade & the Tarot

                                                Jade resonates with the archetypes of The Empress, The Lovers, and Justice—cards that speak to harmony, abundance, and balance. Like the Empress, jade encourages growth and nurturance. Like Justice, it calls us toward fairness, truth, and integrity. And like The Lovers, it opens the heart to compassion, connection, and beauty.

                                                Working with jade alongside tarot can help us ground love in action, protect what matters most, and trust the flow of abundance.

Season 15 is all about tarot and crystals, and today we’re exploring the mystical and protective energy of amethyst.

                                                Amethyst has long been associated with protection, intuition, and purification. It is a stone of the goddess, a symbol of wisdom and boundaries, and a companion for those walking spiritual paths.

                                                In this episode, we explore the myth of the nymph Amethyst, the stone’s magical correspondences, and its resonance with tarot archetypes of clarity and devotion.

                                                What we explore in this episode:

                                                • The origins, legends, and magical qualities of amethyst

                                                • Astrological associations with Venus, the Moon, Uranus, and Aquarius

                                                • My personal reflections on birthstones, boundaries, and purple as a spiritual color

                                                Amethyst: Myth, Magic & MeaningAmethyst is a violet variety of quartz whose name means “not drunken” in Greek, reflecting its ancient reputation as a charm against intoxication. In mythology, amethyst originates from the nymph Amethyste/Amethystos (Ἀμέθυστη), transformed into quartz by Artemis to protect her from Dionysus. Wine spilled upon the stone turned it violet, blessing it with protective and sobering qualities. This myth weaves together themes of sobriety, protection, and divine blessing. 

                                                In magical practice, amethyst has been used for:

                                                • Breaking curses and repelling nightmares

                                                • Enhancing psychic development and wisdom

                                                • Purification of spaces, energy, and the self

                                                • Creating sacred space for devotion and ritual

                                                It aligns with the elements of Air and Spirit and resonates with Venus, the Moon, and Aquarius. Amethyst is often linked to Artemis and Diana, goddesses of the hunt and the moon, reinforcing its connection to intuition and sacred space.

                                                Amethyst & the Tarot

                                                While no single card is tied directly to amethyst, its protective and purifying nature can be felt in sword cards that call for truth and discernment, as well as in archetypes like The High Priestess and Temperance.

                                                Amethyst reminds us that real boundaries are lived through action, not only words. It is both a shield and a teacher, guiding us to discern the difference between intention and integrity.

                                                  Welcome to Season 14 of Every Day Tarot! This season, I’m answering your most frequently asked questions about tarot, witchcraft, and divination.

                                                  Today’s question: How do I read tarot intuitively?

                                                  Reading intuitively means listening to your inner voice, noticing what stands out in the imagery, and allowing the message to unfold in real time. In this episode, we look at how to move past the pressure to be “right,” and why intuitive practice turns tarot into a living conversation.

                                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                                  • Why intuition sits at the heart of tarot and witchcraft

                                                  • How tarot acts as a mirror for inner wisdom

                                                  • Moving through the fear of being wrong

                                                  • Everyday practices that strengthen intuition

                                                  
                                                  

                                                  What Does Intuitive Reading Mean?

                                                  It is natural to feel hesitant to practice tarot without a guidebook in hand. Many of us grew up in systems that rewarded the “right answer” and discouraged uncertainty. That can make reading tarot feel intimidating. What if you misinterpret a card? What if someone disagrees?

                                                  Intuitive tarot invites a different approach. It encourages us to notice what draws our attention—a symbol on the card, a memory that surfaces, an emotion that stirs. These impressions matter, and when you speak your impressions aloud, you are giving yourself permission to trust and listen to your intuition speaking through your deck.

                                                  Trust Your Inner Voice

                                                  The truth is, tarot isn’t about proving yourself right. It’s about opening a space for reflection and dialogue—between you, the cards, and whatever wisdom wants to emerge in the moment. Instead of asking, “Did I get this card right?” you begin to ask, “What does this card awaken in me right now?”

                                                  Over time, this practice shifts from seeking fixed answers to cultivating an ongoing relationship with your inner knowing. With each reading, you learn to trust yourself a little more. These moments are where intuition lives, and where tarot’s deepest magic takes root.

                                                    Welcome to Season 14 of Every Day Tarot! This season, I’m answering your most frequently asked questions about tarot, witchcraft, and divination.

                                                    Today’s question: What’s the best way to start learning tarot? 

                                                    Starting out can feel overwhelming: 78 cards, countless spreads, and every reader doing things differently. The key is to slow down, find your footing, and remind yourself: you don’t need to know everything right away. Tarot is ultimately about connection—between you, your deck, and the people you read for. 

                                                    In this episode, we'll go over the best way to start learning tarot, how to build confidence, and why community makes all the difference.

                                                    What we explore in this episode:

                                                    • Why reading for yourself is the best place to start

                                                    • How practicing with others deepens your learning

                                                    • Why memorization isn’t everything (and what to do instead)

                                                    • Practical ways to connect with tarot communities in person and online

                                                    • How sharing your practice builds trust in your own intuition

                                                    
                                                    

                                                    Learning Tarot Without Overwhelm

                                                    Picking up your first tarot deck can feel magical and also a little intimidating. Seventy-eight cards, countless spreads, different decks and traditions… It’s easy to feel like you’ll never “know it all.” 

                                                    So what’s the best way to start learning tarot? The truth is simpler than you might think: begin by practicing, and let your intuition lead the way.

                                                    Instead of pressuring yourself to memorize everything, let your practice grow naturally:

                                                    • Journal your daily or weekly card pulls

                                                    • Offer readings for friends, family, or your community

                                                    • Share your spreads, even casually, on social media

                                                    • Join local meetups, metaphysical shops, or online groups

                                                    Speaking your interpretations aloud and engaging others in the process will grow your confidence and stretch your intuition far more than memorizing a list of keywords ever could.

                                                    Starting something new can feel intimidating. Instead of forcing yourself to know it all, focus on stability, trust your intuition, and let your practice unfold at its own pace.

This season, I’m answering your most frequently asked questions about tarot, witchcraft, and divination.

                                                      Today’s question: How do I shuffle the cards? 

                                                      One of the most common beginner questions I hear is: how do you shuffle the cards? Shuffling is just mixing the deck. It sounds simple, right?  But when you’re holding your first tarot deck in your hands, it can feel a little intimidating. You might wonder if there’s a “correct” way, if you’re doing it wrong, or if the way you shuffle affects your reading.

                                                      In this episode, I'll share the many ways you can connect with your deck through the simple act of shuffling.

                                                      What we explore in this episode:

                                                      • The difference between bridge shuffling, overhand shuffling, and mixing cards by hand

                                                      • Why deck size, shape, and texture might influence your shuffling style

                                                      • How intention and energy matter more than the mechanics

                                                      • Why there’s no “wrong way” to shuffle as long as it feels aligned

                                                      Shuffling Until It Feels RightI grew up playing card games with my family, so I learned to shuffle the way you’d shuffle a standard deck—using the bridge shuffle. That’s the one where you split the deck, bend the cards into an arc, and let them fall together in a neat snap.

                                                      My personal routine:

                                                      • I shuffle at least three times when starting fresh.

                                                      • I cut the deck with my left hand and place half to the side.

                                                      • Then I draw cards from the remaining stack in my right hand.

                                                      Shuffling randomizes the deck, but it’s also ritual. It’s your moment to breathe, focus on the question, and let the deck tune in with your energy. Some readers invite the querent (the person receiving the reading) to shuffle, others keep it personal—it’s all about what feels true to you.

                                                      Here are a few alternatives:

                                                      • Overhand shuffle - Holding the deck in one hand and pulling small stacks into the other.

                                                      • Mixing on the table - Spreading cards out on a flat surface and mixing them around with your hands.

                                                      • Hand-to-hand shuffle - Shifting cards back and forth between your palms until you feel ready to stop.

                                                      💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                      From Norse Goddess Rune Oracle, I pulled Hagalaz (Hel) - Chaos, Destruction, and Renewal.

                                                      Transformation often begins in chaos. By surrendering to destruction, we open the door for resilience, healing, and rebirth.

                                                      • Where in your life are you experiencing upheaval?

                                                      • What habits or patterns are ready to be broken down?

                                                      • How can you hold trust in the renewal that follows chaos?

                                                        Welcome to Season 14 of Every Day Tarot! This season, I’m answering your most frequently asked questions about tarot, witchcraft, and divination.

                                                        Today’s question: How do I get back into tarot?

                                                        If you’ve fallen out of your tarot routine, or perhaps lost touch with your cards, consider this your reminder that the magic never really leaves. Your deck isn’t keeping score. It’s not disappointed that you missed the last full moon, or that it’s been months since you last shuffled. Tarot is always ready to meet you right where you are, no matter how much time has passed. 

                                                        In this episode, we’ll explore gentle ways to restart your tarot practice and help you reconnect with your deck and intuition.

                                                      • 
                                                        

                                                      • Release the guilt, build small and steady habits

                                                      Getting back into tarot isn’t about “catching up” or doing it perfectly. Even one card pulled with intention is enough to spark reconnection and remind you that your deck is always waiting for you. The most important step is to release pressure. 

                                                      • One-card pulls - Shuffle once, draw a single card, and spend some time noticing what it stirs in you.

                                                      • Tarot snapshots - Snap a photo of your daily card and give it a one-word caption. Let it be playful.

                                                      • Weekly check-ins - Choose one day each week to pull a card for the week ahead.

                                                      These simple practices reawaken your tarot muscles without adding pressure.

                                                      Use Natural Rhythms as Anchors

                                                      If daily cards feel overwhelming, let nature guide you.

                                                      • Lunar cycles - Pull cards on new and full moons.

                                                      • Seasonal markers - Solstices, equinoxes, and sabbats can anchor your readings.

                                                      • Life transitions and milestones - Moving, starting a new job, or even “it’s Friday” can all be reasons to pull a spread.

                                                      Tarot doesn't need to follow a strict witchy calendar. You are allowed to choose the rhythms that feel aligned with your energy.

                                                        Tarot can be a powerful ally in the therapy room. In this episode, I share exactly how to bring it up with your therapist, what to say, how to find tarot-friendly providers, and what to do if your therapist isn’t a reader (but is open to your deck).

                                                        What we explore in this episode:

But what if the very tools that ground you—like tarot—could also be part of your healing journey in therapy? 

                                                        Tarot cards can serve as a mirror, sparking conversation about feelings, fears, or desires that may be difficult to put into words. Even if your therapist isn’t a tarot reader, they can still support you. Similar to art therapy, tarot provides the picture, you provide the meaning, while you and your therapist work together to unpack it

                                                        💜 Finding tarot-friendly therapists, pro tip!

                                                        Search bios for spiritual, holistic, creative arts, narrative, witchy, tarot-friendly. On directories (e.g., Psychology Today), filter by “spiritual” or “other” under orientation, then ask in a free consultation.

                                                          Tarot isn’t just a tool for personal reflection, it can also be woven into therapy—helping clients find language for their emotions, connect with archetypes, and uncover insights that words alone can't always reach. 

                                                          In this episode, I share how I began incorporating tarot into my own therapy work, what I learned from the Therapist Who Tarot retreat, and how tarot activities can support clients in self-discovery and healing.

                                                          What we explore in this episode:

                                                          • How tarot functions as a projective technique in therapy

                                                          • Practical activities and prompts therapists can try in session

                                                          • Why tarot resonates with metaphor, narrative therapy, and art-based approaches

                                                          Using Tarot as a Pathway to Deeper HealingWhen most people think of tarot, they picture divination spreads or daily card pulls. But tarot is also a powerful tool for therapists!

                                                          In 2024, I attended the Therapist Who Tarot Retreat, facilitated by Dreya Blume and Rebecca Bloom. It was a transformational experience. Half of our time was devoted to the clinical and ethical applications of tarot in session, and the other half was devoted to creative practice—collaging and crafting our own cards. This balance of head and heart reminded me why tarot belongs in therapeutic spaces. 

                                                          At its heart, tarot is imagery, archetypes, and story. That means it naturally lends itself to therapy, where metaphor and symbolism already play a huge role. 

                                                          Tarot can help clients project their own meaning, uncover patterns, and articulate what’s been unspoken. The cards don’t “tell the future,” but offer clients imagery that prompts insight, reflection, and conversation.

                                                          Practical Applications

                                                          • Invite clients to pull a single card at the beginning of the session and explore its imagery.

                                                          • Use spreads designed for reflection (not prediction), such as “strengths and challenges.”

                                                          • Try journaling questions from resources like The Tarot Activity Book by Dreya Blume.

                                                          • Craft cards together in session to explore identity, values, or coping tools.

                                                          Justice asks us to return to balance. Her invitation is to give and receive with integrity, to honor truth even when it’s uncomfortable, and to notice where reciprocity can bring healing.

                                                            Today’s question: What does it mean when a card falls out of the deck?

                                                            Tarot readers often call these “jumping cards” or “flyers.” They tumble out while shuffling, sometimes dramatically, and can feel like they’re demanding your attention. But what do they really mean? 

                                                            In this episode, we’ll explore different reader perspectives on jumping cards, how to work with them, and what to do when the whole deck seems to tumble onto the floor.

                                                            Why Jumpers Show Up

                                                            There’s an old witchy saying: “What falls to the floor comes to the door.” In other words, when a card slips out of the deck, it might be knocking loudly with a message meant for you.

                                                            Jumping cards often carry a sense of urgency, such as:

                                                            • A truth you’ve been avoiding.

                                                            • A theme that keeps surfacing in your life.

                                                            • A nudge from your guides, ancestors, or higher self.

                                                            Ultimately, a card falling out only has meaning if you choose to give it meaning. If it happens often, you might set it aside and notice whether its themes echo through your reading. 

                                                            Practical Ways to Work With Jumpers

                                                            So what should you do when a card falls out? You can try one of these approaches:

                                                            • Set it aside. Read it as a standalone message before moving into your spread.

                                                            • Check for patterns. If the same card keeps falling, consider it a stalker card and pay closer attention.

                                                            • Look and pick another. Take note of what it was, then shuffle it back in and continue.

                                                            • Scan your body. Notice how you feel when the card jumps. Does it spark a jolt of recognition, or does it feel like simple clumsiness? Your intuition already knows.

                                                            Personally, if one or two cards fall while I’m focusing on an intention, I’ll set them aside. They often hold exactly the message I need. But if half the deck crashes onto the floor while I’m juggling my coffee and shuffling, I give myself permission to laugh, reset, and start again.

                                                            💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                              Today’s question: What does it mean when I keep pulling the same card?

                                                              Tarot has a funny way of following us around. Sometimes, a single card seems to “haunt” us, appearing over and over no matter how much we shuffle! In this episode, we’ll explore the meaning of these so-called “stalker cards,” why they show up, and how to work with them instead of getting frustrated or dismissing the message.

                                                              What we explore in this episode:

                                                              • What a “stalker card” is and why it might keep showing up in your readings

                                                              • How to ask clarifying questions or use a different deck to expand the message

                                                              • Why repetition is usually a sign of an unintegrated lesson, not a broken deck

                                                              
                                                              

                                                              Why Do Stalker Cards Show Up?A repeated card is usually a message that hasn’t yet been integrated. You may have thought about it, but you haven’t embodied it. Or perhaps you’ve been avoiding the lesson because it feels uncomfortable, inconvenient, or too big to face.

                                                              Other reasons stalker cards appear:

                                                              • Unanswered questions - You’re asking the same thing in different ways, and tarot is holding its ground.

                                                              • Timing - The energy of the card is present in your life for a season, not just a moment.

                                                              Statistically speaking, pulling the same card multiple times in a shuffled 78-card deck is rare! If it keeps happening, you need to pay attention.

                                                              How to Work With Repeating Tarot Cards

                                                              Stalker cards can feel like being “read to filth” by the universe. Sometimes they’re blunt. Sometimes they sting. Remember: your deck is not punishing you. They’re pointing toward growth.

                                                              1. Journal or Photograph the Card

                                                              2. Ask Clarifying Questions

                                                              3. Explore the Symbols

                                                              4. Shift Your Medium

                                                              5. Embody the Lesson

                                                              If the message feels overwhelming, take a break from pulling cards, cleanse your deck, or ask a trusted reader for perspective.

                                                                Today’s question: How do I connect with my ancestors? 

                                                                Our ancestors walk with us. They are in our DNA, our gestures, our voices, and even our dreams. But for many of us, the idea of connecting with ancestors brings up big questions: What if I didn’t know them? What if my family history is painful? What if I’ve lost touch with my cultural roots?

                                                                Ancestor work is not about perfection or recreating the past exactly as it was. It is about relationship. In this episode, we'll talk about how to connect with your ancestors and consciously invite them into your spiritual practice.

                                                                Who Are Our Ancestors?

                                                                When we talk about ancestors, many of us think of grandparents or relatives we knew in childhood. But ancestor work goes far deeper than family trees. Ancestors can include:

                                                                • Immediate loved ones - parents, grandparents, or relatives who shaped your life.

                                                                • Ancient ancestors – humans who lived thousands of years ago, whose lives were rooted in land, migration, and survival.

                                                                • Cultural ancestors – people of your heritage or tradition who carried stories, songs, and rituals.

                                                                • Spiritual ancestors – those connected through practice, belief, or chosen lineage.

                                                                • Chosen ancestors – communities of care and resilience we inherit outside of bloodlines.

                                                                The truth is: you are already connected. Their choices, stories, and legacies live in your body and spirit. Ancestor work simply brings that connection into consciousness.

                                                                Here are some everyday practices to try:

                                                                • Create an altar – Let it be a place of remembrance and conversation.

                                                                • Cook their food – Prepare recipes they loved or meals tied to your heritage.

                                                                • Tend heirlooms and objects – Use your grandmother’s teapot, your grandfather’s books, or family tools in daily life.

                                                                • Offerings and rituals – Light a candle, pour a cup of tea, or leave flowers at their photo or grave.

                                                                • Tell stories – Go through family albums, watch old home videos, or simply speak their names aloud.

                                                                • Dreamwork – Invite ancestors into your dreams by placing a photo, token, or dream pillow under your pillow. Record what comes through.

                                                                • Nature connection – Spend time in places your ancestors lived, or honor plants and animals they would have known.

                                                                Ancestor Work When Family Is Complicated 🖤

                                                                Not everyone feels safe or ready to connect with family lines directly. For those of us with family trauma, estrangement, or cultural displacement, ancestor work can feel overwhelming. 

                                                                Here are some gentle ways to approach it:

                                                                • Start with distant ancestors

                                                                • Work with cultural or spiritual ancestors

                                                                • Invite your healed and benevolent ancestors

                                                                You get to decide who to connect with, and boundaries in sacred work are important too!

                                                                💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                From Ophidia Rosa Tarot deck, I pulled the Seven of Cups.

                                                                The richness of ancestor work lies in choice and possibility. You are not limited to one path of connection, because what matters most is the intention behind it.

                                                                Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                • What everyday practices help me feel closest to my ancestors?

                                                                • Where do I feel tension in connecting with my family line, and how might I gently begin with safe, supportive ancestors?

                                                                Welcome to Season 14 of Every Day Tarot! This season, I’m answering your most frequently asked questions about tarot, witchcraft, and divination.

                                                                Today’s question: How do I connect with my guides? 

                                                                Spirit guides, ancestors, angels, plant allies, animal spirits—many traditions and cultures recognize the presence of guides that walk with us. In this episode, I explore who these guides are, the different forms they may take, and how you can begin to build a relationship with them. 

                                                                From meditation and tarot pulls to noticing synchronicities and signs, connecting with guides is less about forcing an encounter and more about opening yourself to the ways they already show up in your life.

                                                                What we explore in this episode:

                                                                • What spirit guides are and the many forms they can take

                                                                • Practical ways to begin connecting and communicating with spirit guides

                                                                • Why connecting with guides is a practice of trust, subtle listening, and an ongoing relationship

                                                                
                                                                

                                                                What Are Spirit Guides?

                                                                Guides are often understood as non-physical beings who support us during our lifetime. Depending on your spiritual background, they may be called angels, ancestors, gods or goddesses, animal spirits, plant allies, or simply energy. 

                                                                Some traditions believe we are assigned a team of guides at birth, while others teach that guides appear and depart depending on what we need at different points in our lives.

                                                                
                                                                

                                                                Ways to Connect With Your Guides:

                                                                • Meditation & Breathwork – Find stillness, breathe deeply, and ask inwardly for guides to step forward. Notice what images, sensations, or feelings arise.

                                                                • Tarot or Oracle Cards – Ask your guides to speak through the cards. Pull one with the intention of connecting.

                                                                • Altar Work – Create a sacred space with candles, plants, crystals, or symbols that feel aligned with your guides.

                                                                • Nature Connection – Spend time with animals, plants, or landscapes. Pay attention to what feels significant.

                                                                • Dream Journaling – Keep a notebook by your bed to capture dreams and recurring imagery.

                                                                • Symbol Tracking – Write down synchronicities, numbers, or signs. Patterns often emerge over time.

                                                                      What we explore in this episode:

                                                                      When I stepped onto the stage at Enchanticon, I knew I wanted to talk about more than Trelawney, tea leaves, and tarot cards. I wanted to talk about trust. Trusting our intuition. Trusting the symbols that show up in our lives. Trusting ourselves. Because divination isn’t just about predicting the future, it’s about learning how to listen to ourselves in the present.

                                                                      Prophecy, Intuition, & Free Will

                                                                      The central question of prophecy in Harry Potter is whether the future is set in stone. Dumbledore reminds Harry: “It is our choices, far more than our abilities, that show who we truly are.” Voldemort heard half the prophecy, tried to prevent it, and ended up ensuring its fulfillment. 

                                                                      This is how I see tarot. A spread doesn’t tell me what must happen. A card pull isn’t a locked-in script; it’s a hint of possibility. Intuition works the same way. It doesn’t force our hand. It says, “Here’s what you already know—now, what will you do with it?” The magic happens in that gap between knowing and choosing, because while prophecy may frame the story, it's free will that writes the ending.

                                                                      
                                                                      

                                                                      Trust Yourself Tarot Spread (pulled from The Sasuraibito Tarot deck)

                                                                      This spread is designed to help you quiet the noise, listen inward, and reconnect with your own inner compass. Each position explores a different facet of self-trust, moving from the whisper of intuition to the long-term anchors that sustain you.

                                                                      1. The Whisper

                                                                      • What my intuition is quietly telling me right now.

                                                                      • This is the seed of inner knowing that’s easy to dismiss or overlook. It’s the gentle nudge that reminds you where truth already lives inside of you.

                                                                      3. The Compass

                                                                      • How can I tune in and hear myself more clearly?

                                                                      • A tangible action you can try to build trust in yourself through lived experience.

                                                                      5. The Anchor

                                                                        Numbers aren’t just numbers in the wizarding world; they're magic. But numerology goes far beyond lucky or unlucky numbers! From Voldemort’s obsession with the number seven to Hermione’s absolute love for Arithmancy, it’s an ancient system that sees numbers as carriers of energy, meaning, and destiny.

                                                                        What we explore in this episode:

                                                                        Numerology: The Magic in NumbersNumerology is the study of numbers as symbols carrying energy, direction, and influence. Each digit from 1 through 9 carries its own vibration: beginnings, intuition, creativity, stability, curiosity, harmony, spirituality, ambition, completion. Larger numbers are reduced back to these roots, and repeating digits (11:11, 333, 444) amplify their meaning.

                                                                        Numbers show up everywhere: birthdays, addresses, names, and even in pop culture. In the tarot, numbers shape archetypes through the Major Arcana, beginning with 0 (the Fool) and cycling through the archetypal journey until 21.

                                                                        Arithmancy at HogwartsIn the wizarding world, numerology takes the name arithmancy, and it’s Hermione’s favorite subject. While she dismisses Divination as “woolly” and subjective, she praises the logical, chart-based approach of arithmancy. 

                                                                        Even Voldemort is obsessed with numbers: he creates seven horcruxes, deliberately choosing the most magically potent number in the wizarding world. J.K. Rowling herself plays with sevens and twelves constantly in the series. And in Muggle culture, we see echoes of the same beliefs—seven as “lucky,” 13 as “unlucky,” 11:11 as a moment to make a wish.

We’ll touch on the history of dream divination, how it appears at Hogwarts, and what the tarot can teach us about the dreaming mind.

                                                                        • The history of dream interpretation across cultures and philosophies

                                                                        • How dream interpretation appears in Divination class at Hogwarts

                                                                        Dreams and The DreamerFor thousands of years, dreams have sparked wonder and debate. Were they visits from the gods? The soul wandering beyond the body? A glimpse into the future? Ancient Greek philosophers like Socrates even questioned whether waking life or dreams were more real. Chinese philosopher Zhuang Zhou famously asked if he was a man dreaming of being a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming of being a man.

                                                                        Modern psychology often describes dreams as ways of reworking unresolved emotions, stitching together the fragments of our daily lives. No matter the interpretation, dreams continue to unsettle, inspire, and invite us to question what is real.

                                                                        Dream Interpretation in Harry PotterAt Hogwarts, dream interpretation (or oneiromancy) is introduced by Professor Trelawney as one of the “most important” forms of divination. Students are asked to keep dream diaries and analyze symbols using The Dream Oracle textbook.

                                                                        Of course, Harry and Ron take a far more skeptical approach. They joke their way through class, inventing tragic endings to please Trelawney, while Lavender and Parvati embrace dream interpretation with full enthusiasm. 

                                                                        Dreams in the series act as both personal anxieties and cosmic warnings, a reminder that what happens in the dream world can echo in waking life

As we enter Virgo season, this card encourages reflection: to honor small victories, celebrate growth, and release what no longer feels important.

We’ll explore astrology, its history and practice, how it shows up in the Harry Potter books, and what it can teach us about seeing our lives reflected in the night sky.

                                                                        What we explore in this episode:

                                                                        • How astrology is defined and practiced in history and modern life

                                                                        • The difference between astronomy (science) and astrology (divination)

                                                                        • The role astrology plays in the Harry Potter series: humans vs. centaurs

                                                                        Astrology as a Personal Map

                                                                        Astrology is, at its heart, a map. Your birth chart is like a cosmic snapshot—the planets, moon, and stars captured at the very moment you were born. It tells us about gifts and challenges, the edges we’re meant to grow through, and the stories that might unfold. 

                                                                        Astrology doesn’t tell us what will happen so much as it tells us where to look, what to tend, and what energies are humming underneath the surface. It's not about measuring data points (that's astronomy), but rather asking: what are the symbolic influences these celestial movements have on us? 

                                                                        I love how astrologer Chani Nicholas puts it: astrology isn’t therapy, but it is therapeutic. It’s a reminder that we are the way we are on purpose. And when we’re witnessed in that way, something softens. We feel less broken, less random, more whole.

                                                                        
                                                                        

                                                                        Human vs Centaur Astrology

                                                                        In the Harry Potter books, astrology shows up in two distinct ways: Humans practice it in Divination class, drawing circular charts, noting planetary positions, and predicting personal fortunes. 

                                                                        Centaurs like Firenze, on the other hand, take the long view. They read celestial shifts as harbingers of world events, not just day-to-day fortunes. Centaurs also approach astrology communally, across generations. And that contrast feels so rich to me.

                                                                        One line that always sticks with me is Firenze’s saying, “Mars is bright tonight.” On the surface, it sounds like small talk. But beneath it is a warning—Mars, the planet of war, is blazing. Conflict is coming. The humans dismiss it, but the centaurs know better.

                                                                        This contrast reveals something powerful: astrology is not just about looking at the sky, it’s about how we interpret what we see.

                                                                          This practice has roots in cultures around the world and is often depicted in pop culture with the classic crystal ball. In the Harry Potter series, Professor Trelawney uses crystal gazing as part of her Divination lessons.

                                                                          What we explore in this episode:

                                                                          • Tarot cards that echo the symbolism of orbs and crystal spheres

                                                                          The History & Practice of Crystal GazingCrystal gazing (scrying) has roots stretching back to 3000 BCE, with Babylonians, Egyptians, Celts, Mayans, and many others using reflective surfaces—water, mirrors, or crystal—to divine the future and seek guidance. 

                                                                          Practitioners are known to see shapes, smoke, colors, or even images within the ball that act as symbolic messages. Much like candle gazing, the practice blends meditation with vision, guiding the seeker into intuitive awareness.

                                                                          Scrying at HogwartsCrystal balls appear several times throughout the books, mostly in Professor Trelawney’s classroom. She describes the practice as subtle and difficult, often leaving students frustrated when all they can see is swirling fog. Harry and Ron famously fumble their way through Divination exams, with Ron describing his examiner’s face reflected in the orb as a “vision.” Trelawney, meanwhile, sees ominous signs of death—echoing her pattern of foreboding predictions. 

                                                                          Later, during the Battle of Hogwarts, she even uses her crystal balls as weapons, hurling them from the tower. The practice, though ridiculed, reflects the deeper theme of divination as an art that requires patience, openness, and trust in the “inner eye.”

                                                                            What we explore in this episode:

                                                                            • The history and basics of palmistry: lifelines, heart lines, and beyond

                                                                            • The deeper meaning of palmistry beyond reading your life line to know “when you’ll die”

                                                                            The Art of Palmistry: Reading Between The LinesPalmistry, or chiromancy, dates back thousands of years with roots in India and China. While pop culture often reduces it to predicting when you’ll die or when you’ll fall in love, palmistry is more nuanced. 

                                                                            Hands are linked with the four elements—earth, air, fire, and water—and even fingerprints carry symbolic meaning. Palmistry looks at the lines, shapes, and textures of the hand—lifeline, head line, and heart line being the most well-known. Together, it reveals energy, adaptability, karmic and relational patterns.

                                                                            Palmistry, like many forms of divination in the books, becomes a mirror: revealing as much about the interpreter’s biases as it does about fate itself. 

                                                                            Palmistry at Hogwarts

                                                                            In the Harry Potter series, palmistry gets only a brief spotlight. In third-year Divination, Harry notices Professor Trelawney flinching every time she looks at his hands, which he finds more unnerving than helpful. Palmistry also pops up during Harry’s OWL exam, where he disastrously mixes up the life line and head line, accidentally telling his examiner she should have died the previous Tuesday (geez!).

                                                                            Rowling seems to lean into palmistry’s pop-culture reputation of doom and melodrama. But if we read between the lines, we can imagine Trelawney’s genuine discomfort—perhaps she really was sensing the heavy fate Harry carried, even if he didn’t want to hear it.

                                                                              What we explore in this episode:

                                                                              • Mentions of fire omens and smoke reading in the Harry Potter series

                                                                              • Smoke as a bridge between earthly and spiritual realms

                                                                              Fire Omens & Reading Smoke

                                                                              Since the first spark of fire was struck, humans have gathered around its light—seeking warmth, safety, and stories. But for some, fire has also been a portal. Its smoke curling into the sky carries not only scent and shadow but also messages. This ancient practice of seeking signs in fire and smoke is known as pyromancy (divination by fire) and capnomancy (divination by smoke).

                                                                              Like tarot, smoke divination is a mirror. What you find in it says as much about you as it does about the future.

                                                                              History of Smoke Divination

                                                                              Smoke is liminal. It’s neither solid nor liquid, neither earth nor air. That transience makes it the perfect symbol of messages from beyond. 

                                                                              Cultures across history have read fire and smoke. Ancient Babylonians burned cedar, interpreting the messages rising in the air. Greek oracles at Delphi inhaled sacred vapors. Druids are believed to have burned oak and mistletoe in ritual fires. Even today, incense and candle flames remain sacred tools, helping practitioners open a space between the everyday and the spiritual.

                                                                              To explore the energy of this episode, I pulled cards from The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright

                                                                                What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                Brewing Wisdom: Tea Leaf Reading and TarotThere’s something enchanting about the bottom of a teacup. The dregs swirl into shapes—animals, letters, or strange little patterns—and suddenly you find yourself asking: What does this mean for me?

                                                                                This art is called tasseomancy (or tasseography), the practice of reading tea leaves, coffee grounds, or other remnants to divine meaning. While many of us met tasseomancy through Professor Trelawney’s dramatic classes in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, its roots stretch far deeper—back to melted wax readings in the Middle Ages, Romani traditions in tea rooms, and Scottish folk practices.

                                                                                Like tarot, tasseomancy works through symbols. A dog might be an omen of loyalty for one person, a shadow of death for another. A line could suggest careful planning, while a cup shape symbolizes love. Each shape can hold countless meanings depending on who’s reading and for whom.

                                                                                
                                                                                

                                                                                Harry Potter & The GrimOf course, no conversation about tasseomancy is complete without Harry’s first class with Trelawney. While Harry sees “a load of soggy brown stuff,” Trelawney finds ominous symbols: a falcon, a skull, and most famously, the Grim. To Harry, it’s a death omen. To readers, it’s also a foreshadowing of Sirius Black, his godfather, protector, and the animagus in the form of a great black dog.

                                                                                Symbols rarely have just one meaning, and that’s the magic of divination.

                                                                                
                                                                                

                                                                                To explore the energy of this episode, I pulled cards from:

This card reminds us that magic lives in the everyday. Brewing tea with intention can become a ritual of balance, presence, and transformation.

                                                                                  For me, this is personal. I grew up reading the series as a family from elementary school onward. I’ve been a Mugglecast listener since 2006. I’m a Slytherin, my favorite book is Half-Blood Prince, my favorite film is Goblet of Fire, and when it comes to intuition in this world, I can’t help but adore Luna and Tonks! But Trelawney’s arc fascinates me—partly because of what she could have been if she’d been allowed to trust herself.

                                                                                  Intuition: The Body as an Oracle

                                                                                  Intuition in the wizarding world is rarely loud. It shows up in the pause before action, the sudden shift in direction, the unspoken certainty that something is about to happen. Harry survives again and again because of these instinctive flashes. Dumbledore moves political mountains through what he “just knows.”

                                                                                  And yet, when intuition is embodied by characters like Trelawney, Lavender, or Parvati—often women working within explicitly mystical traditions—it’s treated as fragile, unserious, or decorative. 

                                                                                  The Quiet Violence of Not Being Believed

                                                                                  Take Sybill Trelawney’s for example, she delivers prophecies which shape the fate of the wizarding world and is never told. She is completely unaware that she was right, and without that knowledge, she doubts herself and clings to theatrics for authority. She then gets written off as weird and unreliable. 

                                                                                  The tragedy of Trelawney as a seer isn’t her eccentricity, but that no one even thought that she deserved to know the truth of her own gift. Mind you, she has no memory of what she said or what she saw. The prophecy leaves her lips, true as bone, but no one tells her it came to pass. No one confirms she was right. Without that anchor, the memory slips sideways. She convinces herself it must have been nonsense, or a lucky guess at best.

                                                                                  But the truth is she wasn’t wrong—not then, and not now. She just learned, through omission and dismissal, to stop believing in her own knowing. And that’s the cruelest part: not that her visions were doubted, but that she learned to doubt them too!

                                                                                  
                                                                                  

                                                                                  I pulled cards from Therapists Who Tarot Deck:

                                                                                    We’ll explore her family lineage, the mythological roots hidden in her name, how her prophecies shape the series, and why she’s often dismissed despite her accuracy.

                                                                                    What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                    • How Sybill’s name links her to ancient Greek oracles and prophecy traditions

                                                                                    • The portrayal of divination in Hogwarts classrooms vs. real-world magical practices

                                                                                    • The tension between authentic vision and public disbelief

                                                                                    • Why reclaiming the intuitive arts matters for modern witches and seekers

                                                                                    Professor Sybill Trelawney: The Seer No One Believed

                                                                                    Trelawney is a descendant of the legendary Seer Cassandra Trelawney—a name that itself comes from Greek mythology, where Cassandra was cursed to speak true prophecies that no one would believe. Her first name, “Sybill,” echoes the Sibyls of ancient Greece. They were prophetess or oracles who spoke at sacred sites and whose visions were sought in times of crisis. This layered naming builds a character steeped in mysticism, prophecy, and tragedy.

                                                                                    In Hogwarts, she’s dismissed by students and faculty alike, mocked for her dramatic style and fixation on doom. It's ironic how even in a magical world, divination is treated as the most dubious of arts.

                                                                                    The Diviner’s Dilemma

                                                                                    Professor Trelawney, being portrayed as eccentric, dramatic, and frequently mocked, mirrors how real-world intuitive and mystical practices, particularly those aligned with feminine energy, are undervalued or ridiculed. And yet, despite all the doubt surrounding her, Trelawney delivers prophecies that alter the course of the entire wizarding world. 

                                                                                    Her paradox—being both overly underestimated yet impactful—offers a lesson for anyone whose gifts are misunderstood: “There is power in holding your vision steady, especially when others can’t see it.”

                                                                                      From the moment they step into Professor Trelawney’s tower classroom, Harry and Ron treat divination with a mix of doubt and humor. Harry maintains a polite detachment. Ron, however, leans into parody, going so far as inventing outlandish predictions just for laughs. Is it comedic? Maybe. But it underscores how the narrative treats divination as less serious than “hard” magical subjects.

                                                                                      In the wizarding world, just as in ours, intuition and symbolism often get sidelined in favor of skills considered more rational or measurable. For male characters, this skepticism can also be a kind of armor. Almost like their way to avoid being associated with something deemed “soft.”

                                                                                      
                                                                                      

                                                                                      The Real-World Mirror: Challenging Who Gets to Define What Counts as Truth

                                                                                      Beyond fiction, cultural norms often dictate who is “allowed” to engage with intuition. Practices like tarot, astrology, and scrying are still frequently labeled as feminine domains, discouraging men from fully exploring them. This can limit their connection to a valuable form of wisdom and perpetuate the myth that logic and intuition can’t coexist.

                                                                                      Throughout history, the intuitive arts have been dismissed or mocked—often by men in positions of authority. This dismissal is not just about disbelief; it’s about control. By undermining intuition, systems rooted in patriarchy limit ways of knowing that fall outside “rational,” “masculine” frameworks.

                                                                                      Seen through this lens, Ron and Harry’s attitude toward divination becomes more than a subplot. It’s a reflection of how gender expectations shape the stories we tell and the truths we’re willing to entertain.

                                                                                      
                                                                                      

                                                                                      To explore the energy of this episode, I pulled cards from the Sasuraibito Tarot:

                                                                                        Logic Over Intuition

                                                                                        Hermione is introduced as the brightest witch of her age. She is bookish, highly logical, and deeply dedicated to her studies. This drive stems in part from her Muggle-born background, pushing her to master a world she didn’t grow up in. 

                                                                                        Hermione often uses her encyclopedic knowledge to help Harry and Ron in dangerous situations, but she struggles when learning requires trust in intuition rather than reliance on text. Her relationship to divination becomes clear in Year 3 at Hogwarts. Required to take the class, she finds it “woolly” and unscientific, ultimately storming out and securing permission to drop it. Ironically, she deeply enjoys Arithmancy, a subject rooted in numerology, which in the real world is often lumped in with other metaphysical practices.

                                                                                        "If being good at Divination means I have to pretend to see death omens in a lump of tea leaves, I'm not sure I'll be studying it much longer! That lesson was absolute rubbish compared with my Arithmancy class!"

                                                                                        — Hermione Granger's opinion of Arithmancy

                                                                                        In Greek myth, Hermes (Ares) was not only a messenger god but also associated with astrology and divination—exactly the skills Hermione disregards. This tension between her namesake’s symbolic meaning and her actual choices creates a rich point of discussion for both literary analysis and tarot reflection.

                                                                                        Dismissal of Divination as a “Woolly” SubjectHermione’s views on divination are a reminder of how easily we can dismiss what we don’t fully understand. Her skepticism is not malicious. It’s rooted in her love of facts, her respect for authority, and her desire for concrete answers. But it's this same skepticism that closes her off from experiences and truths that don’t fit into a textbook.

                                                                                        So, should we prioritize clinging to logic or trust our intuition more?

                                                                                        Tarot, much like divination in the wizarding world, requires us to hold both the structure of the system and the fluidity of our personal insight.

                                                                                        
                                                                                        

                                                                                        To explore the energy of this episode, I pulled cards from:

                                                                                        What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                        • JK Rowling’s trans-exclusionary radical feminist (TERF) stance

                                                                                        • How the Harry Potter books reveal a pattern of devaluing femininity and intuitive arts like divination

                                                                                        • How the fandom has reclaimed the series to center inclusivity, diversity, and queer joy

                                                                                        When Magic Meets Reality

                                                                                        JK Rowling, born Joanne Rowling, has been publicly vocal since 2020 about her trans-exclusionary radical feminist (TERF) beliefs—views that deny the validity of trans women’s identities and actively push against their rights, including access to healthcare.

                                                                                        Her stance isn’t just a matter of poorly chosen tweets. She has founded and personally funds the JK Rowling Women’s Fund, which supports legal cases designed to challenge trans inclusion and remove gender-affirming care. The fund takes no public donations; it is entirely powered by her wealth—wealth she built from all the books, films, merchandise, and spin-offs that make up the HP wizarding world.

                                                                                        This has placed Harry Potter fans in a deeply personal ethical dilemma: How do we reconcile a story that taught us about friendship, bravery, and acceptance with the reality that its creator is actively funding harm against marginalized communities?

                                                                                        The Fandom’s Reclamation Work

                                                                                        The Harry Potter series no longer belongs solely to its author. Stories live and grow in the hearts of those who read them.

                                                                                        We can honor the parts of the series that shaped us while holding Rowling accountable for her harm. We can channel our energy into creating inclusive spaces, supporting trans and queer communities, and practicing the magic of connection that the books once inspired in us.

                                                                                        After all, the real magic isn’t in a wand, it’s in the choice to build a better world where everyone feels safe to be themselves.

                                                                                        • The Devil - seduction of power and the shadow side of attachment.

                                                                                        • The Tower - collapse of illusions; the shock of seeing the truth.

                                                                                        • Eight of Cups - walking away from what no longer aligns, seeking deeper meaning.

                                                                                        • The World - wholeness and integration, reclaiming the narrative.

                                                                                        
                                                                                        

                                                                                        If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!

This season, we’re exploring the sacred bond between the tarot and our animal allies.

                                                                                          Animals are ancient storytellers. They whisper truths about our intuition, reflecting our fears and desires, guiding us through cycles of change, and reminding us of the wild magic woven into the natural world.

                                                                                          In this episode, we talk about spiders—weavers of fate and keepers of intricate worlds. They invite us to become intentional architects of our own lives. Spider energy says, "Every strand we weave—each choice, thought, and action—becomes part of the story we’re living."

                                                                                          Let’s dig into their lore, their tarot appearances, and the lessons they bring when they show up in your life (or your deck!)

                                                                                          What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                          • Spider symbolisms in myth and magic 

                                                                                          • How spider energy relates to certain tarot archetypes 

                                                                                          • The message of the rabbit: weave with intention and honor the connections that sustain you 

                                                                                          Spider Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                          Spiders are master builders, spinning webs that are both home and hunting ground, showing us how beauty and function can coexist.

                                                                                          In many traditions, Spider Grandmother or Spider Woman is a creator figure, weaving the stars into the sky and teaching humans how to live in harmony. They are believed to be symbols of creativity, patience, and interconnectedness. 

                                                                                          Spiders represent:

                                                                                          • Creativity & craftsmanship

                                                                                          • Patience & trust

                                                                                          • Cycles & interconnectedness

                                                                                          • Balance & duality

                                                                                          Tarot Cards Featuring Spider Energy:

                                                                                          While not common across all decks, rabbits appear in several key tarot archetypes—especially those grounded in the physical world. Their energy pops up symbolically, even when they’re not pictured directly.

                                                                                          • The Hanged Man (Anima Mundi Tarot) 

                                                                                          Shown as a male black widow, this card mirrors the spider’s suspended state, asking us to pause, surrender, and shift perspective.

                                                                                          • Seven of Wands (Sasuraibito Tarot)

                                                                                          A small spider in the corner reinforces themes of patience, standing your ground, and waiting for the right moment to act.

                                                                                          • Four of Pentacles / Four of Cactus (Desert Illuminations Tarot)

                                                                                          Featuring a tarantula, this card explores attachment, scarcity, and the balance between protecting resources and living generously.

                                                                                          From The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, I pulled the Three of Water (Lemon Balm).

                                                                                          This is a card of joy, community, and connection. Just as spiders weave threads that hold the web together, this card calls us to strengthen the ties in our own lives—gather with friends, nourish relationships, and let shared joy ripple outward.

                                                                                          Reflective prompts on this card:

This season, we’re exploring the sacred bond between the tarot and our animal allies.

                                                                                            In this episode, we talk about goats—curious, determined, and fiercely independent creatures who have lived alongside humans for over 10,000 years. From their ability to scale impossible cliffs to their role in myth and folklore, goats embody persistence, adaptability, and a refusal to be tamed. 

                                                                                            What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                            Goat Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                            Goats are among humanity’s oldest animal companions, domesticated for milk, meat, hides, and wool—and just as importantly, for their spirited company. They are woven deeply into human history and imagination. In Norse myth, Thor’s chariot is pulled by two powerful goats. In astrology, Capricorn—the sea-goat—blends ambition with mystical depth. In folklore, goats are sometimes cast as rebellious or “devilish,” not because they are evil, but because they resist blind conformity.

                                                                                            Symbolically, goats remind us to:

                                                                                            • Tenacity & perseverance

                                                                                            • Self-sufficiency

                                                                                            • Curiosity & exploration

                                                                                            While sheep are often seen as docile followers, goats carry the archetype of the rebel—playful, cunning, and willing to challenge the status quo. This is part of why they’ve been linked to the Devil card in tarot and to ideas of temptation, defiance, and personal freedom.

                                                                                            Tarot Cards Featuring Goat Energy:

                                                                                            • The Chariot (Anima Mundi Tarot)

                                                                                            Represented here by a ram, its horned strength echoes the goat’s determination and willpower to forge ahead toward victory.

                                                                                            • The Shepherd (The Citadel Oracle)

                                                                                            Featuring a goat’s skull, this card embodies guidance, leadership, and care, reminding us that independence and community connection can coexist.

                                                                                            • The Devil (Desert Illuminations Tarot)

                                                                                            Often depicted with goat horns or satyr features, this card speaks to temptation, rebellion, and breaking from the herd. It asks us to examine our attachments and reclaim our autonomy.

                                                                                            
                                                                                            

                                                                                            If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!

This reversal calls out restlessness, overwork, and the fear of stillness—or, on the other side, being too inactive and unmotivated. Goat energy here nudges us to break from stagnation, whether that means honoring your need for true rest or shaking yourself free from inertia.

                                                                                            Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                              In this episode, we talk about butterflies—delicate yet powerful symbol of transformation, death, and rebirth. With their striking beauty and intricate life cycle, butterflies teach us that true change takes time, struggle, and surrender. They remind us to trust the cocoon, to honor periods of stillness, and to celebrate what emerges on the other side.

                                                                                              What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                              • Butterfly symbolisms in myth and magic 

                                                                                              • How butterfly energy relates to certain tarot archetypes 

                                                                                              • The message of the butterfly: look forward to your transformation, embrace it, and it will give you wings

                                                                                              Butterfly Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                              Butterflies are some of the most powerful symbols of change across cultures. Their life cycle—egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, winged adult—mirrors the personal and spiritual transformations we all navigate. 

                                                                                              In spiritual traditions, butterflies are seen as messengers from the spirit world, symbols of the soul, and signs of personal evolution. Their presence invites us to honor impermanence and celebrate the beauty of what was, even as we prepare to become something new.

                                                                                              Butterflies represent:

                                                                                              • Metamorphosis & personal growth

                                                                                              • Cycles of life, death, & rebirth

                                                                                              Tarot Cards Featuring Butterfly Energy:

                                                                                              Butterfly energy shows up across these decks: as a symbol of metamorphosis, mental clarity, rebirth, and the courage it takes to become someone new. 

                                                                                              • Knight of Swords (Sasuraibito Tarot)

                                                                                              This card shows a dramatic image of a butterfly seemingly split in two at the third eye. Paired with the Knight of Swords, it emphasizes swift clarity, decisive change, and the unrelenting momentum of transformation.

                                                                                              • Death – (Herb Crafters Tarot) 

                                                                                              In this deck, the Death card features marigolds and monarch butterflies in honor of Día de los Muertos. It’s a reminder that what ends makes room for what matters most.

                                                                                              • Eight of Wands (Ophidia Rosa Tarot)

                                                                                              This card pulses with forward motion. It’s about momentum, movement, and rapid shifts. The butterfly’s inclusion mirrors the energy of sudden growth and transformation.

                                                                                              This card is a gentle invitation to celebrate your growth because even the tiny, awkward, in-progress wins count.

                                                                                              Just like a butterfly doesn’t emerge all at once, our transformations unfold quietly, layer by layer. When we pause to honor what we’ve already moved through, we create space to witness the magic that’s already in motion.

                                                                                              Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                In this episode, we talk about the wolf. Revered and feared across cultures, wolves remind us of our instincts, our longing for belonging, and the tension between the wild and the tame. They show up in tarot as symbols of the wild self, the edge-dweller, the one who knows how to walk between worlds.

                                                                                                What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                • Wolf symbolism in myth and magic 

                                                                                                • How wolf energy relates to certain tarot archetypes 

                                                                                                • The message of the wolf: there is power in the pack, and there is strength to be found in an untamed heart

                                                                                                Wolf Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                                Wolves have long been both demonized and deified. Where humans have feared the wild, we have cast the wolf as villain. But in truth, the wolf is a creature of rhythm, respect, and relational depth.

                                                                                                In myth and magical practice, wolves represent:

                                                                                                • Instinct and intuition

                                                                                                • Loyalty, kinship, and cooperation

                                                                                                • Shadow work and the unconscious

                                                                                                • Territorial protection and fierce boundaries

                                                                                                From Odin’s wolves in Norse legend to the Pawnee Wolf Star and the she-wolf who raised Romulus and Remus, the wolf appears across traditions as both guide and guardian. 

                                                                                                Wolves also share a mythic and ecological bond with crows and ravens—working in tandem, communicating across species, and reminding us that real power often comes through interdependence.

                                                                                                Tarot Cards Featuring Wolf Energy:

                                                                                                Wolves don’t show up often in traditional decks, but when they do, they carry a message of shadow, strength, and sacred connection to the wild self.

                                                                                                • The Moon (Rider-Waite-Smith & Traditional Decks)

                                                                                                In many decks, The Moon card features both a dog and a wolf, standing at the liminal edge between domestication and wilderness. The wolf represents our primal instincts—the parts of us that howl when we stray too far from our truth.

                                                                                                • Strength (Desert Illuminations Tarot)

                                                                                                This version of Strength honors the myth of the Red Wolf, a spirit guide who teaches resilience, surrender, and the power of inner will. This card reminds us that strength doesn’t always roar, sometimes watches from the shadows, and survives through trust.

                                                                                                • Ten of Pentacles (Anima Mundi Tarot)

                                                                                                In this card, a Red Wolf rests with its pups, embodying themes of legacy, family protection, and the abundance that comes from shared responsibility.

                                                                                                • Knight of Pentacles (Anima Mundi Tarot)

                                                                                                A Gray Wolf teaches us how to move with consistency and intention. No rush, just steady progress rooted in loyalty, craft, and care.

                                                                                                💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                                                A striking synchronicity, as the card features a raven, reminding us of their mythic partnership with wolves. This oracle offers a message of caution: “Don't let the pursuit of knowledge become a search for flaws. See the whole picture—flaws and all.”

From mythic trickster to messenger of transformation, the crow calls us to use our voice, sharpen our perception, and honor the magic in the unseen.

                                                                                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                  Crows—along with their raven kin—are members of the Corvus genus and among the most intelligent animals in the world, capable of using and even creating tools. They’re adaptable, highly social, and deeply intertwined with human history, thriving in both wild and urban environments.

                                                                                                  Spiritually, crows are often seen as:

                                                                                                  • Symbols of transformation & rebirth

                                                                                                  • Teachers of adaptability & cleverness

                                                                                                  In many Indigenous traditions, crows appear as tricksters, shapeshifters, or bringers of insight. In Greek myth, they’re linked to prophecy and divine communication. In Celtic lore, they are battle omens and guides of the soul.

                                                                                                  Ravens, the crow’s larger relatives, share similar magic and carry an additional underworld connection—often accompanying deities like the Morrigan or working alongside wolves in mutualistic hunting partnerships.

                                                                                                  Tarot Cards Featuring Crow Energy:

Their energy pops up symbolically, even when they’re not pictured directly.

                                                                                                  • Maiden of Swords | Page (Goddess of Love Tarot)

                                                                                                  • Seven of Swords (Anima Mundi Tarot)

                                                                                                  A raven appears here as a symbol of stealth, cunning, and discernment. This card asks you to examine your own intentions and those of others, and to ensure that your actions align with integrity.

                                                                                                  • Balance | Justice (Goddess of Love Tarot)

They symbolize transition, awareness, and the courage to navigate the dark. Bats teach us that we can still move through uncertainty if we trust our intuition. 

                                                                                                    What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                    • How bat energy relates to certain tarot archetypes 

                                                                                                    • The message of the bat: trust your senses and face the dark unknown

                                                                                                    Bat Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                                    Bats are sacred pollinators, voracious insect-eaters, seed-spreaders, and cave-dwellers. Across cultures, bats carry powerful and paradoxical symbolism. Like moths and owls, bats are nighttime messengers, carrying deep truths that can’t be seen in the daylight.

                                                                                                    In Chinese folklore, they represent blessings, longevity, and happiness. In other traditions, they are guardians of ancestral memory, guides of the unconscious, and symbols of rebirth and transformation. In Western culture, they’ve been feared for their associations with death and the underworld, but this only emphasizes their connection to rebirth, metamorphosis, and the power of the unseen.

                                                                                                    They’re often unfairly linked to fear and darkness, but their symbolism holds rich spiritual messages:

                                                                                                    • Renewal & energetic restoration

                                                                                                    • Shadow work & facing the unconscious

                                                                                                    • Trusting inner truth over surface appearances

                                                                                                    Tarot Cards Featuring Bat Energy:

                                                                                                    While not common across all decks, rabbits appear in several key tarot archetypes—especially those grounded in the physical world. Their energy pops up symbolically, even when they’re not pictured directly.

                                                                                                    • Eight of Swords (Anima Mundi Tarot)

                                                                                                      A flying fox bat hangs mid-air, caught in the illusion of entrapment. This card invites us to see how our own thoughts may be limiting our freedom, and how clarity begins when we turn inward.

                                                                                                    • The Devil (Therapist Tarot Deck)

It asks: What makes you sad? What is it time to grieve? What should you stop tolerating?

                                                                                                    • Wheel of Fortune (Desert Illuminations Tarot)

                                                                                                      A bat appears among other creatures on the cosmic roulette wheel. This card reminds us that change is inevitable, and that adaptability and perception are our greatest allies.

                                                                                                    • The Hanged Man (Wild Unknown Tarot – symbolic reference)

                                                                                                      Like a bat hanging upside down, this card represents perspective shifts, spiritual awakening, and surrender to mystery.

                                                                                                    
                                                                                                    

                                                                                                    If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!

This reminds us that the shadow isn’t something to fear, but a space to shed, reflect, and renew. It invites us to honor our energy as sacred and release anything weighing us down.

                                                                                                    Reflective prompts on this card:

With their cat-like grace, clever survival strategies, and sharp perception, foxes appear in myth and magic as guides through the unknown and symbols of feminine cunning and adaptability. Their energy reminds us that survival can be curious, clever, and even playful.

                                                                                                      Fox Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                                      Often seen as cunning shapeshifters, they straddle the line between seen and unseen, known and mysterious.

                                                                                                      In Japanese mythology, foxes (kitsune) are shapeshifting messengers of the gods, blending wisdom and trickery. Some are protectors, and often serve as messengers for the kami Inari and symbolize transformation, sensuality, and deep intelligence. But they can be mischievous spirits meant to teach a lesson too!

                                                                                                      In Celtic and Druidic tradition, foxes are guides through those in-between spaces of dusk, forest, and dream. Their presence offers safety in mystery and counsel in transition.

                                                                                                      In various Indigenous stories, foxes appear as tricksters or teachers, helping humans learn balance through humor, stealth, or strategic interference.

                                                                                                      Fox energy represents:

                                                                                                      • The Fool (Anima Mundi Tarot & Desert Illuminations Tarot)

This reflects the Fool’s capacity to trust instinct, take risks, and adapt as needed. The fox’s light-footed path mirrors the Fool’s invitation to journey lightly.

                                                                                                      • The Magician (Therapists Who Tarot Deck)

                                                                                                      Fox energy shows up as the Magician’s mental agility and intuitive focus. As a shapeshifter and manifestor, the fox embodies personal power that’s grounded in cleverness, timing, and a deep understanding of tools—both physical and magical.

                                                                                                      • Fox (Druid Animal Oracle)

The fox in this oracle teaches when to speak, when to stay silent, and how to navigate diplomacy without falling into deceit. This card calls us to move through life with both grace and discernment.

                                                                                                      💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

Like the fox, you don’t have to rush. Break things down into smaller parts. Observe the terrain before leaping. Ask for help, after all, there’s no prize for doing it all alone.

They have long been associated with intuition, death and rebirth, and feminine magic. They show us the power of observation and the necessity of listening in the dark. When owl energy appears, we are asked to slow down, sense more deeply, and trust our inner knowing.

                                                                                                        Owl Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                                        Owls appear across cultures as both revered and feared. They are often portrayed as guides of wisdom, messengers of death, and symbols of protection.

                                                                                                        In Greek mythology, owls were sacred to Athena, the goddess of wisdom and strategy. Their ability to see clearly in the dark made them symbols of truth, intellect, and guidance during difficult times.

                                                                                                        In Indigenous North American traditions, owls can represent protection, ancestral spirits, or even warnings—depending on the tribe and context. Some Siberian and Inuit shamans viewed owls as spirit guides or soul carriers between worlds.

                                                                                                        In Celtic and Irish folklore, the owl is tied to Cailleach, the Crone goddess, death and rebirth, and sacred feminine mystery. Medieval European traditions often saw owls as omens or witches in disguise.

                                                                                                        Owls represent:

                                                                                                        • High Priestess (Sasuraibito Tarot)A soft, intuitive figure sits with an owl perched in her lap. The owl symbolizes hidden knowledge, calm presence, and sacred mystery.

They are woven into folklore, magic, and medicine across time and place. From the queen to the forager, every action supports the whole. Honey bees remind us that sweetness comes through effort, community, and alignment. It also challenges us to know our role and to value ourselves as part of the greater hive, honoring both our individuality and our interconnection.

From sacred omens to industrious workers, they’ve buzzed their way into mythology, medicine, and magic. Their honey has sweetened offerings to gods, sealed spells of prosperity, and soothed wounds of both body and spirit.

Their energy pops up symbolically, even when they’re not pictured directly.

                                                                                                          • Ace of Pentacles (Sasuraibito Tarot)

They whisper truths about our intuition, reflecting our fears and desires, guiding us through cycles of change, and reminding us of the wild magic woven into the natural world.

                                                                                                            In this episode, we talk about the snake—a creature of transformation, healing, and deep wisdom. Feared by many but revered by mystics and healers alike, the snake reminds us to shed what no longer serves and trust in the messy magic of renewal. With ties to fertility, the underworld, sacred sexuality, and ancient power, the snake slithers through our decks with potent, symbolic force.

                                                                                                            Let’s dig into their lore, their tarot appearances, and the lessons they bring when they show up in your life (or your deck!)

                                                                                                            • Symbols of fertility and the life force

Their presence can invite you to release old beliefs, confront hidden fears, and honor the sacredness of your own evolution.

                                                                                                            Tarot Cards Featuring Snake Energy:

This season, we’re exploring the sacred bond between the tarot and our animal allies.

                                                                                                              Animals are ancient storytellers. They whisper truths about our intuition, reflecting our fears and desires, guiding us through cycles of change, and reminding us of the wild magic woven into the natural world.

                                                                                                              In this episode, we talk about the rabbit—a creature of gentle demeanor, fertility, and explosive bursts of energy. Often associated with spring, the moon, and the underworld, the rabbit invites us to embrace softness without surrendering power, to act even when afraid, and to honor the wisdom that comes from stillness and speed in equal measure.

                                                                                                              Let’s dig into their lore, their tarot appearances, and the lessons they bring when they show up in your life (or your deck!)

                                                                                                              Rabbits Symbolism in Myth & Magic

They freeze when threatened—a reminder that stillness can be a survival skill. But when they run, they zigzag—swift, unpredictable, intuitive. The rabbit reminds us that vulnerability is not a weakness, and we don’t have to let fear lead.

                                                                                                              • Abundance and growth

Their burrows remind us to dig inward—to build shelter, to rest, to incubate what matters.

                                                                                                              Tarot Cards Featuring Rabbit Energy:

                                                                                                              While not common across all decks, rabbits appear in several key tarot archetypes—especially those grounded in the physical world. Their energy pops up symbolically, even when they’re not pictured directly.

                                                                                                              • Queen of Pentacles (Sasuraibito Tarot) The rabbit is most famously featured in the Queen of Pentacles card. This version cradles two rabbits in her arms. Behind her are towering sprigs of rosemary. The scene is lush and full, reminding us that caretaking is sacred, and soft power is still power.

                                                                                                              • Knight of Wands (Anima Mundi Tarot) In this deck, the Knight is depicted as a jackrabbit: long-limbed, wide-eyed, and ready to leap. Here, rabbit energy shifts into boldness. This Knight is the risk-taker, the trailblazer, the intuitive sprinter who doesn’t wait for perfect timing. 

                                                                                                              💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

We’ll explore how sunflowers help us harness solar power, tap into manifestation magic, and embrace radiant self-expression.

                                                                                                                💐 Meet the Plant Ally: Sunflower

Native to the Americas and honored in Aztec and Mesoamerican traditions, sunflowers have been symbols of strength, devotion, and sacred solar power for centuries.

                                                                                                                They nourish the land with deep taproots, feed pollinators, and offer edible gifts from their sprouts to their seeds. It carries bold, magnetic, and generative energy—perfect for rituals that call in courage, confidence, visibility, and abundance.

                                                                                                                • The Sun — representing joy, vitality, illumination, and success

                                                                                                                • Queen of Wands — symbolizing fiery confidence, charm, and creative force

Like The Magician, it reminds us that the seeds of our dreams need both nurturing and action to bloom.

                                                                                                                In myth and magic, sunflowers are tied to gods like Apollo, Helios, and Demeter. In astrology, they resonate with Leo, the Sun, and the element of Fire, encouraging courage, playfulness, and charisma.

Traditionally used by Indigenous communities to treat wounds, infections, and inflammation.

While clover is often associated with luck and fae magic, it is also deeply tied to themes of renewal, gentle movement, and emotional resilience.

                                                                                                                Magically, clover has long been associated with good fortune, emotional healing, and grounded sensuality. It was said to ward off evil, attract love, and bring blessings from the fae.

Clover reminds us: we don’t need to rush to bloom. Tenderness is a path. Movement can be intuitive. We grow in spirals, not straight lines.

                                                                                                                      Lavender (Lavandula officinalis) is a perennial herb recognized by its silvery-green stems and delicate purple flower spikes. Known for its deeply calming properties, lavender soothes the nervous system, clears the air (both energetically and literally), and encourages emotional release. It’s antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and uplifting all at once. Its scent alone evokes tranquility, often described as a balm for the spirit. 

                                                                                                                      This plant is often used in gardens as a protective border, a perfect metaphor for its magical energy. It teaches us how to hold our boundaries without building walls and how to ground into peace even in the midst of chaos.

Lavender encourages us to create peaceful relationships with others and with ourselves, cultivating harmony in our connections.

                                                                                                                      Associated with the element of Air, lavender also speaks to the suit of Swords—encouraging clarity of mind, peaceful communication, and the gentle release of mental clutter.

                                                                                                                        Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is a perennial herb known for its delicate, feathery leaves and clusters of small white or pale flowers. Traditionally found in meadows, disturbed soils, and even driveways, yarrow is as resilient as it is soft.

                                                                                                                        Historically, yarrow has been used to stop bleeding, heal wounds, soothe fevers, and support circulation. It holds a strong connection to warrior energy (think Achilles) and has been called “the plant of the wounded healer,” embodying the dance between protection and gentle care.

                                                                                                                        🔮 Yarrow & Tarot

We’ll explore what it means to work with tarot beyond simple divination, how it can support deep self-discovery, and why I’m so excited to invite you into a new offering: a live, collective tarot for transformation journey starting this summer.

                                                                                                                          Tarot as a Tool for Deep Change

                                                                                                                          Tarot has always been more than a deck of cards for me. It’s a mirror, a trusted guide, and an invitation to slow down and listen to the voice within.

                                                                                                                          When I first started reading tarot, I was like many people — flipping through guidebooks, cross-referencing keywords, trying to "get it right." Over time, I realized that tarot isn’t about right or wrong; it’s about relationships. It’s a practice of showing up, again and again, to ask: What do I need to know? Where am I being led?

                                                                                                                          This shift toward an intuitive, embodied tarot practice has transformed not just my readings but how I move through life. It’s taught me to trust my inner knowing, to see challenges as invitations to grow, and to approach life’s twists and turns with more compassion and curiosity.

                                                                                                                          Inspiration from Dreya Bloom

                                                                                                                          Tarot for Transformation by Dreya Blume (formerly Andy Matzner) uses the major arcana to guide us through deep self-discovery. In this book, Dreya outlines three essential steps for living a more authentic, fulfilling life:

                                                                                                                          1️⃣ Discover who you really are beneath all the social and familial conditioning.

                                                                                                                          2️⃣ Clarify what you truly want from life.

                                                                                                                          3️⃣ Learn and integrate essential life skills (like setting boundaries, processing emotions, and cultivating self-compassion).

                                                                                                                          The major arcana offers archetypal energies that help us work through these stages. By engaging with these cards, we can explore different parts of ourselves and begin to shape a life that feels true and alive.

                                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                          

                                                                                                                          Three Reflective Questions to Get You Started

                                                                                                                          This summer, I’m inviting you to join me for a 12-week live course based on Tarot for Transformation!

                                                                                                                          In this episode, I’m sharing my reflections on tarot and deities: how we might invite the divine into our tarot practice and connect with different aspects of spirit through the elements.

                                                                                                                          When we choose to work with a specific goddess, we’re seeing spirit distilled into a certain archetype. Venus might represent love, Kali transformation, and Hekate for thresholds and magic. These archetypes can be powerful guides during different phases of our lives. 

                                                                                                                          Tarot becomes a bridge to these divine energies. It offers a mirror, reflecting where we’re being called to grow, shift, and soften. The cards can guide us deeper into our connection with spirit, whether we frame that as the goddess, the universe, or simply our higher self.

                                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                          

                                                                                                                          Elemental Tarot Spread:

                                                                                                                          2:Temperance appeared upright, inviting me to find balance and not stretch myself too thin. A gentle call to go with the flow.

                                                                                                                          3:The Ten of Wands reversed suggested that my fire is being fueled by overcommitment and the weight of too many responsibilities, and that I need to avoid burning out.

                                                                                                                          4: The Hierophant told me to lean into structures that already work for me rather than constantly reinventing the wheel.

                                                                                                                          5:The Five of Swords reversed encouraged me to embrace open, honest communication, even when it means navigating conflict.

                                                                                                                          6: The Four of Wands reversed showed me where I’m struggling with stability and connection, nudging me to seek community and shared joy.

                                                                                                                          7: The Strength card, reversed, pointed to self-doubt and the need for inner courage and compassion.

                                                                                                                          8: The Six of Cups reversed called me to release nostalgia and unrealistic expectations, and to focus on presence and emotional growth.

                                                                                                                          9: The Ace of Cups reversed reminded me to open my heart, express my emotions, and embrace new beginnings with vulnerability.

Before shuffling, I take a few deep breaths and focus on my question: Which path of sacred sex is right for me? You can make it more specific if you like — for example: “How can I embody my erotic power? Or what wants to be awakened in my sacred sexuality?”

                                                                                                                        2. Shuffle and cut your deck. While shuffling, I hold my question in mind and let my body relax. When I feel ready, I cut the deck however feels right.

                                                                                                                        3. Pull five cards. I usually lay them out in a straight line from left to right, but feel free to arrange them however feels intuitive.
                                                                                                                           

                                                                                                                        Here’s what each card represents:

                                                                                                                        • Card 1: What is my inspiration for my path of sacred sex?

                                                                                                                        • Card 2: Where in myself can I connect to this?

                                                                                                                        • Card 3: How can I begin exploring this unique path?

                                                                                                                        • Card 4: What do I need to keep in mind as I do so?

                                                                                                                        • Card 5: What theme or message can I carry with me?

                                                                                                                        1. Reflect and journal. Once the cards are out, I take time to look at them together and notice immediate thoughts, body sensations, emotions, and any symbolic meanings that arise. I write down everything that feels important, even if it doesn’t make complete sense at first.

                                                                                                                        2. Integrate the messages. I close my eyes and spend a few moments imagining the cards’ messages weaving into my body and spirit. Sometimes I’ll pull a final clarifying or “closing” card, or turn this into a short meditation or movement practice to ground the insights.

                                                                                                                        Optional: Make it a ritual

                                                                                                                        You can deepen the experience by lighting candles, wearing something that feels empowering, playing music that helps you connect to your body, or adding affirmations or breathwork before or after your reading.

                                                                                                                        Journal Prompts

                                                                                                                        After your reading, you might explore:

                                                                                                                        • What surprised me most about these cards?

                                                                                                                        • Where do I feel these messages in my body?

                                                                                                                        • What desires or emotions came up that I want to honor more fully?

                                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                          

                                                                                                                        Here’s what came up today: The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck:

                                                                                                                        • 1: What is my inspiration for my path of sacred sex? I pulled the 5 of Pentacles reversed — a sign that I’m moving out of pain and isolation and stepping into heart-led healing.

                                                                                                                        • 2: Where in myself can I connect to this? 8 of Swords reversed — clarity is coming in, and I’m seeing the truth more clearly than before.

                                                                                                                        • 3: How can I begin exploring this unique path? 4 of Swords — by resting, integrating, and taking the time to truly listen to my body and heart.

                                                                                                                        • 4: What do I need to keep in mind as I do so? Crone of Cups reversed — to watch out for getting stuck in fantasy or nostalgia, and to stay grounded in what’s real.

                                                                                                                        • 5: What theme or message can I carry with me?

                                                                                                                          If you’ve ever wandered into a witchy bookstore or scrolled through spiritual corners of the internet, you’ve probably noticed there are so many types of decks out there. Tarot, oracle, affirmation, runes, hybrids—you name it. And one of the most common questions I get is: “What’s the difference between tarot and oracle cards?” In this episode, I’ll unpack how tarot and oracle cards differ, what makes each unique, and why you don’t have to choose between them.

                                                                                                                          Tarot’s Structure vs. Oracle’s FreedomTarot is built on a fixed system: 78 cards, divided into the Major Arcana (22 archetypes) and Minor Arcana (four suits, each Ace through 10 plus court cards). This structure creates a shared language across decks, making it great for learning patterns, spreads, and archetypal themes.

                                                                                                                          Oracle, by contrast, is entirely freeform. Decks can have 39 cards, 44 cards, 60 cards—whatever the creator decides. Each oracle deck carries its own rules, symbolism, and design. That freedom allows for creativity, thematic depth, and fresh perspectives.

                                                                                                                          Tarot is a system with structure. That consistency is why tarot is so widely taught, written about, and recognizable. I often describe tarot as a map—a framework you can return to again and again to navigate your inner landscape, archetypes, and life lessons.

                                                                                                                          Oracle decks are the free-spirited cousins of tarot. That freedom allows oracle decks to be wildly diverse.  I would describe oracle as more of a conversation starter. It opens the space for intuition, creativity, and journaling without needing to memorize a system.

                                                                                                                          But here’s the thing: you don’t have to choose. Tarot and oracle complement each other beautifully.

                                                                                                                          • Use Tarot when you want structure, archetypes, spreads, or deep study.

                                                                                                                          • Use Oracle when you want a quick hit of inspiration, journaling prompts, or a deck that speaks directly to a specific theme in your life.

                                                                                                                          • Use Both when you want tarot’s clarity and oracle’s creative voice in the same reading.

We explore how to weave tarot cards into your spells to focus your intention, call in specific energies, and deepen your connection to the magic you’re creating.

                                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                            

                                                                                                                            Tarot doesn’t just help us understand our inner world—it can help us shape it. In spell-work, tarot cards act as powerful focal points for our intentions. Each card carries an archetype, an energy you can call on to support your magic.

                                                                                                                            Want to invite abundance and nurturing energy? Work with The Empress. Need courage for a fresh start? Turn to The Fool or The Magician.

                                                                                                                            When woven into your rituals—whether you're lighting a candle, writing intentions, or creating moon water—tarot cards can add clarity, focus, and symbolic depth. Think of them not just as tools, but as allies walking alongside you on your magical path.

                                                                                                                            • Pen or pencil

                                                                                                                            • A pinch of dried or fresh thyme

                                                                                                                            • A safe container to burn paper (cauldron, fire pit, or fire-safe dish)

                                                                                                                            • Optional: a candle or charcoal disk

                                                                                                                            Steps:

                                                                                                                            1. Write your intention for healing on your piece of paper — this can be for yourself, someone else, or the Earth.

                                                                                                                            2. Light your fire safely, focusing on your intention.

                                                                                                                            3. Place the paper into the flames and say: "I now send healing to [name/intention]."

                                                                                                                            4. As the flames burn, sprinkle in thyme and say: "Time heals all wounds. May this time heal [your intention]."

                                                                                                                            5. Visualize the smoke carrying your healing energy where it’s needed, and thank any guides, ancestors, or elements supporting you.

                                                                                                                            Today's Tarot Pull:

Williams, I pulled The King of Chiles (reversed). This reminds us that our creative and fiery energy might be low right now, and that’s okay. It’s an invitation to rest, heal, and nurture ourselves before stepping boldly forward again.

                                                                                                                              The Moon card in tarot is rich with symbolism. It calls us into the shadows, into places where logic steps back and intuition takes the lead. While the Sun card shines light and clarity, the Moon invites us to sit with uncertainty, dreams, and deeper emotional tides.

                                                                                                                              In different decks, the Moon is depicted in various ways: as a powerful goddess, a glowing celestial body above dark water, or a mysterious pathway under starlight. Each image reminds us to explore beyond the obvious, to honor what we sense but may not fully understand.

How to nurture your intention. What actions, steps, or support will help your idea grow? This is the phase of taking action and building momentum.

                                                                                                                              • Card 4: Full Moon, to the left of the signifier card.

Before you begin, take a quiet moment to ground yourself. You might place a hand on your pet (if they’re open to it), light a candle, or simply breathe deeply and set your intention.

                                                                                                                                1. A card to represent our connection- I pulled the 7 of Pentacles. To me, this speaks to the patience and long-term investment woven into my relationship with Watson. It also hints at my dreams for our future together, maybe even welcoming new kitten companions one day.
                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                2. Something special we share together- The 6 of Pentacles came up here. This feels so true to our nightly rituals — the generosity, the shared comfort, and those moments when he comes running to snuggle on the bed while I journal. It’s about the simple ways we give and receive love each day.
                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                3. How can we better understand each other- I drew the 6 of Swords. This card invites me to honor the ongoing transition we’re both experiencing since his sister passed. It reminds me to hold space for his healing process and to be patient with the shifts in our home and hearts.
                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                4. An activity to nurture our bond- I pulled The Hierophant. This suggests leaning into the comfort of our established routines and continuing to explore new ways to communicate, like using his talking buttons. It feels like an encouragement to keep things steady and safe while also remaining open to growth.
                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                5. Why were we brought together- For this, I drew The Lovers. This feels so affirming. It speaks to our deep soul connection and the sense of being chosen family for each other. We’re here to support, comfort, and understand one another on a profound level.

                                                                                                                                Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                                                                                From Ophidia Rosa Tarot deck, I pulled The World (Upright). This card symbolizes wholeness, completion, and the unity that I feel with Watson — a beautiful reminder of how much we mean to each other and how we help each other feel truly at home.

                                                                                                                                  There’s a certain kind of peace that settles in when your hands are touching the earth and your tarot cards are on your altar. It’s quiet and potent magic. It reminds you that your practice doesn’t have to be separate from the natural world. In fact, it might be urging you to come back to it.

                                                                                                                                  In this episode, I want to share a bit about how tarot and plant magic intertwine in my life—and how you might begin to explore this soft, grounded connection for yourself.

                                                                                                                                  We often think of tarot as a tool for guidance, self-reflection, and insight—and it is all of those things. But it’s also something more subtle. It’s a conversation. A ritual. A doorway.

                                                                                                                                  Tarot doesn’t have to live only on your desk or in your journal. It can be part of your garden, your bath, your tea ritual. And when we invite the wisdom of plants into that conversation, something shifts. We drop deeper into the body. We awaken the senses. We remember that divination doesn’t just happen in the mind—it happens in our hands, in our breath, in our relationship with the earth.

                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                  Tarot is a Living Practice

                                                                                                                                  Here are a few ways I’ve been weaving plant magic into my tarot practice:

                                                                                                                                  • Tarot Altar Offerings – Fresh flowers, fruit, herbs, or pressed petals paired with specific cards.

                                                                                                                                  • Moon Bath Rituals – Infused with rose petals, lavender, chamomile, or eucalyptus.

                                                                                                                                  • Card and Plant Pairings – Pulling a daily tarot card and asking, What plant wants to walk with me today?

                                                                                                                                  • Scent and Oil Magic – Using essential oils as anointing tools or diffusing them during readings.

                                                                                                                                  • Gardening as Spell-work – Planting with intention, letting each seed or sprout carry a message.

                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                  If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!

                                                                                                                                  To close my ritual, I pulled the Ten of Pentacles from the Ophidia Rosa Tarot. A perfect message. This card, rich in grounded, earthy energy, is a reminder that completion doesn’t mean perfection. It means rootedness. Wholeness. A sense of peace in your body and your home.

                                                                                                                                  The card art was floral, full, warm. It echoed the season. And it reminded me that tending to our lives is itself a form of magic. That our legacy is not just what we do, but what we cultivate.

                                                                                                                                  Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                  • What does “legacy” mean to me beyond wealth or tradition?

                                                                                                                                  • Where in my life do I already feel grounded, supported, and held?

                                                                                                                                  • How can I honor the abundance I already have while staying open to more?

                                                                                                                                  https://rss.com/podcasts/every-day-tarot/2846556 ac9b0df8-a310-4cdb-a906-9b0636b57aa2 1892 full 10 10 7 7 false Sat, 28 Jun 2025 04:38:57 GMT Welcome to Season 10 of Every Day Tarot!, where I’m exploring the rich, magical intersections between tarot and witchcraft.

Place a hand over your heart or close your eyes. Set an intention: “Let me hear what my body already knows. Let the cards reflect what’s true beneath the surface.”

Something has run its course.

                                                                                                                                    Take a few deep breaths. Center your body. You might place a hand over your heart or light a candle. Set an intention like: "Show me where I’m being called, what’s getting in the way, and how I can move forward with clarity."

                                                                                                                                    2. Shuffle and Pull 3 Cards

                                                                                                                                    • Card 3: (Action) – What grounded next step can you take to align with your calling?

                                                                                                                                    • What fear or belief is clouding my momentum?

                                                                                                                                    • What’s one small action I can take today that honors my truth?

                                                                                                                                    • Doubt: The Cartographer - You may feel stuck or over-plan. Doubt here shows up as the fear of picking the “wrong” map. But the truth is, movement brings clarity.

                                                                                                                                    • Action: The Sentinel - Hold your ground. Protect your energy and act with integrity. Boundaries are your next move.

This season, I’m exploring the rich, magical intersections between tarot and witchcraft.

                                                                                                                                    What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                    • How to start (or return to) a daily tarot practice in an intentional, non-performative way

                                                                                                                                    • My favorite 3-card spreads for checking in with your mind, body, and spirit

                                                                                                                                    • What to do when your daily card is confusing, reversed, or feels heavy

                                                                                                                                    • How the cards reflect your energy even when life feels messy or uncertain

                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                    

                                                                                                                                    In today’s reading, I pulled a 3-card Mind-Body-Spirit spread. These daily spreads help me get present, check in with myself, and make intentional choices—especially when things feel chaotic or unclear.

                                                                                                                                    How to do a 3-card Mind-Body-Spirit spread:

                                                                                                                                    1. Shuffle and Ground Yourself

                                                                                                                                    Take a few deep breaths. Set an intention like: “I want to see what I need to know today about my mind, body, and spirit.” As you shuffle, stay present with your breath or focus gently on your day ahead.

                                                                                                                                    2. Pull 3 Cards

                                                                                                                                    Lay them out in a row from left to right:

                                                                                                                                    • Card 1 (Mind): What’s on your mind? What patterns of thought, beliefs, or ideas are influencing you right now?

                                                                                                                                    • Card 2 (Body): What is your body asking for? This could relate to energy levels, physical health, or embodied emotions.

                                                                                                                                    • Card 3 (Spirit): What does your soul or inner knowing want you to hear today? This card often points to your intuition, deeper values, or spiritual path.

                                                                                                                                    3. Reflect and Record

                                                                                                                                    Sit with the cards. Let the imagery and energy speak to you. You can write down what comes up, draw connections between the three cards, or just hold the insights in your heart for the day.

                                                                                                                                    You might ask:

                                                                                                                                    • What message is each card offering me?

                                                                                                                                    • Where do I feel out of alignment?

                                                                                                                                    • What small act can I do today to nourish each part of myself?

                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                    

                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                    

                                                                                                                                    Here’s what came up in today’s reading using the The Desert Illuminations Tarot:

                                                                                                                                    • Mind: The Magician – a reminder that you already have the tools you need. This card brings you back to your own agency, inviting you to engage with the moment as it is.

                                                                                                                                    • Body: King of Cactus (reversed) – a gentle nudge to notice the burnout or avoidance that might be lingering under the surface. It’s okay to need rest. It’s okay to say no.

                                                                                                                                    • Spirit: Ace of Cactus – a quiet flicker of new inspiration, offering you a glimpse of clarity or possibility that wants to bloom—if you’re willing to slow down and listen.

                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                    

                                                                                                                                    Daily Pull from The Sasuraibito Tarot, I pulled The Tower (reversed). A card of upheaval, truth, and release. It’s not about punishment—it’s about perspective. The Tower doesn’t destroy for the sake of destruction. It clears what was never built to last. It reveals what’s been hiding in plain sight. The Tower invites us to be honest. What’s crumbling in your routine or mindset that’s actually making space for something better? What clarity emerges when we stop clinging to control?

                                                                                                                                    • The Light Seer’s Tarot by Chris-Anne

                                                                                                                                    Ritual doesn’t have to be elaborate. It’s not about perfection, it’s about presence.

                                                                                                                                    In this episode, I reflected on the Summer Solstice as a turning point—a moment of fullness, and a gentle invitation to notice what’s blooming… and what’s asking to be let go.

                                                                                                                                    During my solstice ritual, the cards didn’t offer simple answers. In fact, most of them were reversed! But that didn’t mean the reading was wrong. It meant the message was deeper than “what’s next.” It was a mirror for the mess, the in-between, the becoming.

                                                                                                                                    Sometimes ritual is just holding space for truth. Saying: “I’m still here. I’m still becoming.”

                                                                                                                                    This is what tarot helps us do. It helps us name the unnamed, honor the unseen, and remember that even in moments of doubt, the ritual itself is a form of trust.

                                                                                                                                    Trust that growth doesn’t always look graceful. Trust that rest is also part of blooming. Trust that magic lives in small, consistent acts of attention.

                                                                                                                                    So, what are YOU marking or honoring in your life right now?

                                                                                                                                    From The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington, I pulled the Ace of Cups (upright). In the midst of ritual and reflection, this card invites you to receive. To soften. To let the flow of emotion, intuition, and spirit move through you without resistance. 

                                                                                                                                    In the upright position, the Ace of Cups symbolizes new emotional beginnings, deep spiritual connection, and the kind of renewal that begins in the heart. It’s a card of sacred offering—an invitation to return to the well of your inner truth and let yourself be replenished.

                                                                                                                                    After the intensity of the Solstice spread, this card brings a sense of emotional reset. It says that even now, something beautiful is beginning. Even in your tenderness, there is power.

                                                                                                                                    Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                    • Where am I being invited to open my heart and receive more fully?

                                                                                                                                    • What new emotional beginning is quietly unfolding in my life?

                                                                                                                                    • How can I nurture a deeper connection with myself and others?

                                                                                                                                      What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                      • How solstice energy connects to the zodiac sign Cancer, Venus, and the Two of Cups

It is an invitation to reflect on the light and the dark, the fullness and the stillness, and the stories unfolding in our own lives. 

                                                                                                                                      Whether you're basking in the radiance of the Summer Solstice or tending the quiet of the Winter Solstice, this threshold marks more than a change in season. It offers us a moment of cosmic perspective. It circles back to what we’ve planted, what we’ve harvested, and what remains unseen beneath the surface. 

                                                                                                                                      In the North, the Summer Solstice brings the longest day of the year, a culmination of growth, expression, and outward movement. In the South, the Winter Solstice invites us into deep rest, quiet contemplation, and the slow work of becoming.

                                                                                                                                      Wherever you are in the world, this is a moment of threshold energy—a chance to ask yourself:

                                                                                                                                      • What am I carrying forward with intention?

                                                                                                                                      • What am I ready to release or compost?

                                                                                                                                      • Where is light returning in my life?

                                                                                                                                      • Where am I being called inward?

                                                                                                                                      The Solstice is not about achieving a perfect balance. It’s about honoring the sacred shifts in our own cycles of becoming. It's about pausing long enough to notice: what has changed in me? What is asking to be seen, felt, or tended with care?

                                                                                                                                      You are part of the earth’s breath.

                                                                                                                                      And you are magic.

                                                                                                                                      From The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams, I pulled the Five of Jugs (upright). This card is a reminder that grief and hope often coexist. This card speaks to what has been lost—and what still remains. It invites gentle self-forgiveness, present-moment awareness, and the courage to look toward what is yet to grow.

                                                                                                                                      Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                      • What past disappointment am I still holding onto?

                                                                                                                                        Although tarot and astrology are often studied separately,

                                                                                                                                        they speak a shared language. The earliest tarot decks contained a lot of planetary and cosmic references—The Sun, The Moon, and The Star cards are some of the clearest examples.

                                                                                                                                        Over time, mystics and philosophers began to notice deeper symbolic parallels, assigning astrological equivalents to each card, especially the major arcana.

                                                                                                                                        One of the most widely used systems for this comes from the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, which matched each of the 22 major arcana cards with planets or zodiac signs. These connections add powerful layers of meaning to tarot readings used to explore your astrological birth chart.

                                                                                                                                        In this episode, I referenced the book Tarot and Astrology: Enhance Your Readings with the Wisdom of the Zodiac by Corrine Kenner, which offers a really thoughtful breakdown of these associations. It’s a great read if you’re looking for a framework that blends structure with intuition. This book might be a good place to start!

                                                                                                                                        From The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington, I pulled the Two of Swords reversed, a card that speaks to mental overwhelm, hesitation, and the pressure of choice. In its upright form, the Two of Swords often represents a moment of stillness—sitting with a difficult decision, weighing two paths, seeking balance. But in reverse, that clarity feels harder to access.

                                                                                                                                        Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                          What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                          • Symbolism across decks: calm waters, golden chalices, and poised composure

                                                                                                                                          • The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington

                                                                                                                                          In this episode, we close out Season 9 with the King of Cups—our final card in the Suit of Cups. The King represents emotional wisdom earned through experience. He doesn’t run from his feelings, but he doesn’t let them control him either. Instead, he models what it looks like to respond with intention and grace, even in challenging emotional waters. 

                                                                                                                                          This is a card of deep presence, thoughtful diplomacy, and service without self-abandonment. The King of Cups reminds us that emotional leadership means holding space for others without losing sight of ourselves. It asks: 'Are you offering support to others from a place of self-respect and clarity, or are you overextending yourself to keep the peace?'

This card speaks to communication and confidence. The Orator reminds us that your words carry weight, but so does your intention. Speaking from a place of grounded emotional awareness helps others hear you more clearly. If you’ve been holding back out of fear or discomfort, now is a good time to write down what you want to say and trust your voice.

                                                                                                                                            What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                            • The Queen of Cups as a card of emotional depth, compassion, and intuitive wisdom

                                                                                                                                            • How this card teaches us to hold space for ourselves and others without drowning in emotional overwhelm

                                                                                                                                            • The importance of honoring feelings as sacred, creative, and wise sources of guidance

                                                                                                                                            In this episode, we meet one of the most nurturing, deeply attuned figures in the tarot, the Queen of Cups. This card reminds us that strength doesn’t always roar. Sometimes, it hums gently beneath the surface. She sits near the edge of the ocean, but is not pulled in against her will. 

                                                                                                                                            The queen's throne is grounded, her cup is full, and she knows when to offer compassion and when to protect her peace. This card asks us to honor our emotional experiences without letting them rule us, and to recognize that deep feeling is not weakness.

This card represents investigation, study, and thoughtful problem-solving. The Scholar reminds us to approach things with care and curiosity. When emotions feel tangled or life feels unclear, it may be time to step back, reassess, and engage with what’s unfolding from a more reflective place. Wisdom comes not just from knowing, but from listening, researching, and approaching challenges with humility and care.

                                                                                                                                              In this episode, the Knight of Cups calls us toward vulnerability and intentional pursuit of what moves the heart. Often seen as the most romantic of the court cards, this Knight doesn’t just dream, he acts on his dreams. He makes offers, initiates connection, and takes emotional risks. 

                                                                                                                                              Whether he’s chasing art, love, or divine inspiration, he is willing to move with grace even when the outcome is uncertain. This card is a reminder that being emotionally brave isn’t about never feeling fear—it’s about showing up anyway, cup in hand.

                                                                                                                                              The Knight asks: what would it look like to follow your heart, even if you don’t know where it will take you?

This card is all about experimentation and rebellion. It encourages us to break away from outdated systems, beliefs, or expectations—especially the ones that stifle our emotional truth. The Witch reminds us that magic lives in invention, in questioning the old ways, and in choosing to live authentically. Emotional vulnerability can be its own kind of rebellion. Your heart doesn’t need permission. It just needs practice.

                                                                                                                                              Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                • The Page of Cups as an invitation to listen to our inner child, honor emotional honesty, and rediscover the magic in sensitivity

                                                                                                                                                • Symbolism across decks: keys, cups, water, intuition, emotional openness, and imaginative play

This card speaks to soulful sensitivity, intuitive insight, and creative expression. 

                                                                                                                                                We talk about the joy of playful exploration, the power of emotional courage, and the importance of allowing yourself to feel without shame. Whether you are navigating grief or standing in protest, the Page reminds you that your emotions can be a source of strength and vision.

This card asks us to examine the commitments we've made, especially the ones rooted in love, protection, or long-standing duty. Are those promises still aligned with your truth? Sometimes what begins as devotion turns into self-sacrifice. Sometimes, keeping our word comes at the cost of our own voice.

                                                                                                                                                Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                  • The Ten of Cups as emotional wholeness, collective joy, and the vision of belonging

                                                                                                                                                  • Symbolism across decks: rainbows, contentment, harmony

                                                                                                                                                  • How idealized images of happiness can both inspire and mislead

                                                                                                                                                  • Why genuine connection requires space for both delight and discomfort

                                                                                                                                                  • The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington

                                                                                                                                                  In this episode, the Ten of Cups invites us into the dream of fulfillment, but not without discernment. It asks us to reflect on the meaning of 'happily ever after.' This card often paints a picture of perfect family, or joyful community. And while that’s a beautiful vision, it’s important to remember that real intimacy includes challenge, conflict, and imperfection. 

                                                                                                                                                  Harmony doesn't happen by chance, and joy doesn't cancel out nuances, because togetherness shouldn't be performative. It’s built through shared effort, deep care, and a willingness to hold space for the full range of emotion. The Ten of Cups asks: What does wholeness look like when we stop trying to make it look perfect?

                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                  If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!

Just as a mural is built brushstroke by brushstroke, the life you want is shaped by small, daily acts of hope, expression, and presence.

                                                                                                                                                  Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                    If you’ve ever pulled out a deck at a party, mentioned your tarot practice to a friend, or even listed it on your professional bio, you’ve probably been met with a range of reactions—curiosity, skepticism, fear, or delight. Tarot means different things to different people, and sometimes the hardest part is figuring out where to begin when someone asks.

                                                                                                                                                    Explaining Tarot Minus The Debate

                                                                                                                                                    For many people, tarot’s reputation begins with pop culture. The classic movie trope: a mysterious old woman flips over the Death card and gasps dramatically. Cue ominous music. Or maybe they’ve seen tarot portrayed as a scam or associated with villains in TV shows. These depictions stick, and they can make tarot seem frightening or suspicious. But the truth is that the cards themselves aren’t the problem—it’s the fear lens people look through. 

                                                                                                                                                    The more openly I talk about tarot as a professional witch, podcaster, and therapist, the more I realize most people are curious, not hostile.

                                                                                                                                                    Tarot is a deck of 78 works of art. Each card holds a story, an archetype, and a piece of the human journey. The Fool’s leap of faith, the Tower’s collapse, the Star’s healing light, they remind us of experiences we’ve lived, are moving through now, or may encounter in the future.

                                                                                                                                                    Sometimes, you don’t need the long explanation. When I want a simple answer, I’ll say:

                                                                                                                                                    “Tarot is a deck of cards filled with archetypes and symbolism, used as a tool for reflection, growth, and divination. It’s like journaling with pictures. The cards surface themes and options so I can choose my next step more consciously.”

                                                                                                                                                    That usually opens the door for deeper conversation—without overwhelming the listener.

                                                                                                                                                    Other scripts you can try: 

                                                                                                                                                    • One-liner (universal): “Tarot is a set of archetypal images that helps me reflect on what I’m feeling and facing—it’s insight, not inevitability.”

                                                                                                                                                    • For the curious friend: “It’s like journaling with pictures. The cards surface themes and options so I can choose my next step more consciously.”

                                                                                                                                                    • For the skeptic: “I don’t read it as fate. Think of it as a structured way to prompt critical thinking and pattern recognition, much like a visual thought exercise.”

                                                                                                                                                    • For the religious loved one: “I use tarot for reflection and discernment. I use it to listen, to meditate, and to explore options intentionally.”

                                                                                                                                                    • Boundary if someone wants to debate: “My practice is personal and supportive for me. I’m happy to share my experience, not defend it.”

                                                                                                                                                    💭 Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                                                                                                      What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                      • The Nine of Cups as a symbol of emotional satisfaction, pleasure, and the joy of embodiment

                                                                                                                                                      • Symbolism across decks: cups arranged like banquet tables, figures at rest, comfort, and fulfillment

                                                                                                                                                      In this episode, the Nine of Cups brings us into a moment of deep emotional pleasure. Sometimes known as the “wish card,” this energy isn’t just about desires coming true, it’s about being present with the goodness that already exists. 

                                                                                                                                                      There’s celebration here, but also humility. It invites you to reflect on what has already arrived. It asks you to pause and recognize the sweetness you may have once hoped for, now living quietly in your daily life. A sense of having enough and of being enough. 

                                                                                                                                                      This card asks: Do you let yourself enjoy what you’ve created? Are you allowing yourself to receive and savor life’s small joys?

Upright, this card is all about Negotiation and Exchange, but reversed, it reminds us of the imbalance that happens when we’re surrounded by takers and not enough givers.

                                                                                                                                                      This card invites you to set firm boundaries around your time and energy. You’re not required to be emotionally generous with people who don’t reciprocate. 

                                                                                                                                                      Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                        • The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck: A Book and Deck for Embodying The Erotic Divine Feminine by Gabriela Herstik and illustrated by Julia Popescu

                                                                                                                                                        In this episode, the Eight of Cups guides us through the quiet ache of letting go. It’s not just about endings, it’s about choosing to move forward, even when there’s no guarantee of what’s next. This card reflects the sacred pause between loss and discovery, asking: What emotional truth are you finally ready to face? What dream, relationship, or version of yourself are you being asked to release?

                                                                                                                                                        Sometimes we stay too long, hoping things will change. The Eight of Cups offers us another option: the path of trusting that something more aligned is waiting, even if we can’t yet see it. Walking away isn’t failure, it’s devotion to your deeper becoming.

This card is about Self-Revelation and Confidence. The Dancer moves with elegance and conviction, but not without effort. It honors the strength it takes to trust your body, your path, and your intuition.

It asks: What part of yourself are you reclaiming through this departure?

                                                                                                                                                          In this episode, we explore the dreamy and often disorienting world of the Seven of Cups, a card filled with possibility, illusion, and emotional overwhelm. This is the card of too many choices and not enough clarity. It paints a picture of a moment filled with visions and temptation—some beautiful, others deceptive. When we are offered too many cups at once, how do we know which one to drink from?

                                                                                                                                                          This card teaches us that not every shining thing is for us. We’re invited to pause, sift through our options with clarity, and ask what we’re truly longing for. It also reminds us that dreams require grounded action—wishing alone isn’t enough.

                                                                                                                                                          From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Merchant (reversed)—a figure tied to negotiation, reciprocity, and energy exchange. In its reversed position, it warns of people or obligations that take without giving, draining your reserves while offering little in return.

                                                                                                                                                          This is a clear echo of the Seven of Cups: not all offers are generous. Not all opportunities are true. You are allowed to walk away from what demands more than it gives.

                                                                                                                                                          Reflective prompts on this card:

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                            What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                            In this episode, the Six of Cups brings us into soft, sacred terrain: memory, gratitude, and the sacredness of feeling. It reminds us of the beauty we’ve known before, and encourages us to reach for it again, not as an escape, but as an anchor. Nostalgia, when grounded, can be a balm. It can guide us toward rituals, environments, or relationships that bring us back to ourselves.

                                                                                                                                                            But this card also challenges us not to romanticize the past to the point of avoidance. We’re asked to reclaim what was sweet without bypassing the full truth of what was. The Six of Cups is both a comfort and a mirror: What did you need then that you still need now? And how can you offer that to yourself with compassion?

This is a card that usually symbolizes Inheritance and Collection. Reversed, this card honors the perseverance it took to navigate struggle without much help from others. It acknowledges the internal grit and self-trust built from past hardship.

                                                                                                                                                            This card asks: How do you want to guide yourself forward, now that you know what you know? Can you trust that your past self gave you enough to start again?

                                                                                                                                                            Reflective prompts on this card:

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                              What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                              • How the Five of Cups speaks to grief, disappointment, and the tension between regret and healing

                                                                                                                                                              • Symbolism across decks: spilled cups, sorrowful figures, broken hearts, and overlooked blessings

                                                                                                                                                              • The power of shifting perspective without bypassing what hurts

                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              

                                                                                                                                                              Pictures from the decks I talked about today referenced from left to right:

                                                                                                                                                              • Therapists Who Tarot Deck, Prompts by Dreya Blume and Images by Rebecca Bloom

                                                                                                                                                              In this episode, we dive into the murky waters of the Five of Cups. This card often meets us in the aftermath or after something has gone wrong, fallen apart, or simply not worked out the way we hoped. Across decks, we often see a figure focused on spilled cups while two still stand behind them. This card sits at the heart of the suit, in the tension between heartbreak and healing.

                                                                                                                                                              It asks us to feel what we’re feeling fully before we move on. Not to wallow, not to bypass, but to acknowledge the pain with honesty and presence. What have we lost? What are we still holding onto? What is quietly waiting for us to notice it again?

It reminds us that transformation begins in truth. That looking at what hurts is the first step toward remembering what’s still possible.

                                                                                                                                                              From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Brawler (reversed). In the upright position, The Brawler is about confrontation, strength, and direct action. But reversed, this card warns of unspoken tension and the emotional cost of avoiding conflict. Healing begins not with bypassing discomfort, but with facing it honestly. When we bottle things up instead of naming them, the rupture doesn’t disappear; it just waits for the next chance to spill over.

                                                                                                                                                              It asks: Where are you suppressing your truth in order to keep the peace? What happens when you bottle things up instead of speaking them aloud?

                                                                                                                                                              Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                                In this episode, we sit with the contemplative space of the Four of Cups — a card that shows us what it looks like to turn inward and what we might miss when we get stuck there. Whether it’s apathy, emotional burnout, or unmet expectations, this card shows up when we need to pause and ask: ‘What am I not seeing? What wants to find me if I soften my resistance?’

                                                                                                                                                                There’s a difference between taking sacred space and shutting the world out. The Four of Cups reminds us to check our posture: Are we closed off from life, or are we consciously listening for something deeper to come through?

                                                                                                                                                                From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright,  I pulled The Forgotten (reversed). In its reversed position, this card represents a painful reckoning—a sense of being overwhelmed, emotionally blocked, or trapped in a spiral of fear or hopelessness. But the reversal also carries a message: Change is coming. This moment may feel heavy, but it asks us to stop ignoring what is right in front of us. It’s a wake-up call to shift focus and choose something different.

                                                                                                                                                                Reflective prompts on this card:

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                  What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                                  • The Three of Cups as a celebration of joy, sisterhood, and spiritual connection

                                                                                                                                                                  In this episode, we explore the Three of Cups as a card of joyful collaboration and meaningful community. It's more than a toast—it’s a spiritual communion, a reminder of what it means to belong. 

                                                                                                                                                                  The Three of Cups often appears during moments when we’re invited to open to joy, to create space for connection, and to trust the healing that happens when we’re seen and celebrated.

                                                                                                                                                                  It invites us to recognize the power of community, chosen family, and shared joy. This card asks, “Who are your people?” and “How do you nourish each other?” It reminds us that joy is sacred, and that there’s room at the table, and it’s time you took your seat.

                                                                                                                                                                  From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Muse (upright). This card is about vision, generosity, and celebrating what could be. The Muse is the one who brings an extra cup, makes a toast, lifts the mood, and sings a song. It asks us to see beyond the current moment and imagine what’s possible when we create together with hope and magic.

                                                                                                                                                                  Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                                  In this episode, we explore the tender, relational world of the Two of Cups. Often read as a card of romance, this card is equally about how we project, receive, and reflect love. 

                                                                                                                                                                  The Two of Cups invites us to examine our emotional patterns. It doesn't just ask, 'Who do you love?' It also asks: 'Are you engaging with others from a place of reciprocity, or are you reenacting old dynamics in search of healing? Do you recognize the parts of yourself you're giving away?'

Upright, this card is a toast to shared joy, family, belonging, and celebration. Reversed, it invites you to reclaim some of that love and happiness for yourself. You may have been giving so much to others that you’ve neglected your own needs. This card offers a gentle redirection: instead of overextending, come back to center and tend to your own heart.

                                                                                                                                                                    In this episode, we begin our exploration of the Suit of Cups with the Ace, a card that radiates love in all its forms. Whether it’s romantic, spiritual, platonic, or creative, this card signals a powerful heart-opening. It’s not always comfortable to feel this much, but it is sacred. The Ace of Cups reminds us that we are not meant to hold everything in. We are meant to feel deeply, connect authentically, and let love flow through us like water returning to the sea.

                                                                                                                                                                    This card is especially potent if you’ve been emotionally blocked, burned out, or disconnected from yourself. It asks: What if opening your heart is the bravest thing you could do right now?

                                                                                                                                                                    From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Enchanter (upright). This card sparkles with flair, mystery, and theatrical charm. The Enchanter knows how to cast a spell—how to win over a crowd, or even themselves, through clever illusion.

                                                                                                                                                                    When paired with the Ace of Cups, this card invites us to reflect on authenticity. Are you being genuine with your feelings, or slipping into emotional performance? Have you been masking pain behind charm or playing a role instead of showing up vulnerably?

                                                                                                                                                                    The Enchanter reminds us that magic is real, but it doesn’t have to be fake. It can come from truth. From presence. From the courage to feel.

                                                                                                                                                                    • What would it look like to enchant others with my sincerity instead of a mask?

                                                                                                                                                                    • How can I honor both the performer in me and the part of me that longs to be seen?

                                                                                                                                                                      Welcome to season 8 of this podcast, where I am talking all about the Suit of Swords. I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                      What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                                      • The King of Swords as a master of strategy, clarity, and intellect

                                                                                                                                                                      • Symbolism across decks: regal composure, mental mastery, judge, fairness

                                                                                                                                                                      • Why the King represents structure, authority, and reason—and the shadow of rigidity

                                                                                                                                                                      In this episode, we take a close look at the King of Swords and his ability to survey the land and see beyond what's in front of him.

                                                                                                                                                                      This card represents sovereign clarity, mental discipline, and the power to name, challenge, and change. The King doesn’t hesitate to act when the facts are clear. He isn’t afraid to cut through noise, claim authority, or stand up to outdated systems. But we also talk about the shadow side: how detachment, perfectionism, or over-identification with intellect can lead to isolation.

                                                                                                                                                                      We reflect on the archetype of the elder, strategist, and justice-seeker. The King of Swords asks us to examine our biases, sharpen our discernment, and fix our gaze on what matters most, especially when the world is noisy, overwhelming, or full of distractions.

                                                                                                                                                                      From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Forgotten (upright). This card represents missed opportunities and social invisibility. Sometimes we are so afraid of getting things wrong that we don’t try at all. The Forgotten reminds us that perfectionism and overthinking can keep us from sharing our gifts.

                                                                                                                                                                      This card gently urges: You are not too late. You are not too much. And your ideas, your efforts, your presence? They matter. Turn your focus back toward what you care about. 

                                                                                                                                                                      Reflective prompts on this card:

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                      What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                                      • Symbolism across decks: direct gaze, swords held with reverence, and clear, airy skies

                                                                                                                                                                      • The Queen’s ability to hold both truth and tenderness, head and heart

                                                                                                                                                                      In this episode, we step into the clever presence of the Queen of Swords. This card often appears when it’s time to speak the truth, cut through confusion, and lead with clarity. This Queen doesn’t sugarcoat. She invites us to hold boundaries, honor our lived experience, and resist the pressure to dilute our truth just to be liked.

                                                                                                                                                                      We talk about the Queen as a wise elder, a keen observer, and a protector of personal sovereignty. She is sharp, but not cruel. She asks hard questions—not to harm, but to illuminate. She reminds us that real strength can be quiet, deliberate, and rooted in self-knowledge.

Upright, this card invites us to experiment, rebel, and reshape tradition to fit our lives. Reversed, it asks us to pause. Are you discarding everything for the sake of rebellion? Are you resisting guidance that could actually support your path?

                                                                                                                                                                      The Witch reversed suggests a rebalancing: keep what nourishes, discard what oppresses, and remember that reinvention doesn’t always require destruction.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                        • The Knight of Swords as a card of action, ambition, urgency, and pursuit

This is the part of us that pushes forward, often with sharp clarity, sometimes with tunnel vision. The Knight of Swords is brave and bold, but they can also be reckless, trying to outpace burnout or ignore discomfort by simply doing more.

                                                                                                                                                                        This card reminds us that momentum isn’t the same as alignment. It asks us to pause long enough to ask: ‘Where am I going?’, ‘Why am I in such a hurry?’, and ‘What am I hoping this will prove or fix?’

Upright, this card represents direction, curiosity, and mapping new possibilities. But reversed, it suggests you may be stuck in a pattern of overplanning or indecision, jumping between too many paths without giving one the attention it deserves. The Cartographer reversed calls for discernment: choose one road. Let go of the pressure to do everything all at once.

                                                                                                                                                                          In this episode, we explore the Page of Swords, a card of early insight, sharp observation, and learning through experience. This is the fresh start after the heaviness of the Ten. The Page doesn’t know everything yet, but they’re open. They’re watching, asking questions, testing ideas, and beginning to name the patterns they see.

                                                                                                                                                                          Sometimes this energy can feel defensive or uncertain, especially when we’ve been wounded. But the Page invites us to soften. To stay curious. To recognize the mental weather for what it is, and to stay grounded in our growing wisdom.

                                                                                                                                                                          This card reminds us that learning to think clearly, communicate wisely, and observe without absorbing everything is a practice. We don’t have to get it perfect, we just have to be willing to begin.

This card is all about the early stages of learning, new projects, and the path of growth. Reversed, it asks us to be patient. You may not be where you want to be just yet, but everything you’ve been practicing is still helping you grow. The journey is valid, even when it feels slow.

This card is often seen as one of the darkest in the deck. It depicts collapse, pain, and betrayal, but it’s also about what happens after—the depth beneath the devastation. It shows us the consequences of giving too much, staying too long, or carrying wounds that aren’t fully ours.

In that ending, there is a chance to reclaim yourself. To stop the cycle. This card asks: Where are you still overextending to prove you’re enough? What identity have you outgrown? And are you ready to stop surviving and start healing?

This card carries the energy of Inheritance and Collection. It reminds us that even through painful endings, we gather wisdom. We inherit stories—some helpful, some not. It acknowledges how exhausting it’s been to keep going, especially when others haven’t supported you, but also celebrates your resilience. You've come through the fire, trust that you now have the capacity to face what's next.

                                                                                                                                                                              Welcome to season 8 of this podcast, where I am talking all about the Suit of Swords. I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                              What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                                              • The Nine of Swords as a card of mental anguish, guilt, and obsessive thought

                                                                                                                                                                              • Symbolism across decks: vultures, bed-bound figures, circled despair, and pain

                                                                                                                                                                              • Why this card often asks us to examine our inner saboteur and the fears we internalize

                                                                                                                                                                              • The connection between anxiety, shame, and past trauma

                                                                                                                                                                              • How we can speak to the part of ourselves that tries to protect us through fear

                                                                                                                                                                              In this episode, we dive deep into the heavy emotional terrain of the Nine of Swords. Often associated with anxiety, panic attacks, and restless nights, this card doesn’t just speak to external threats; it reveals what happens when our own mind becomes the battlefield. From vultures circling in the dark to telescopic views of despair, the Nine of Swords asks: Whose voice are you listening to? Is it your own or an echo of past pain?

                                                                                                                                                                              This card is not here to shame you. It’s here to remind you that your thoughts aren’t always facts, and that the part of you trying to protect you from pain may be pulling you deeper into it. Through self-compassion and awareness, we can gently take the wheel back from our inner saboteur and choose a different path forward.

                                                                                                                                                                              From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Thief (upright). This card speaks to risk, desire, and making your own way—even when it seems selfish. The Thief once acted out of necessity, but now craves the thrill of breaking rules and grabbing what they want. The message? You don’t need permission. Take the opportunity. Trust your instinct. The life you want won’t be handed to you, you have to choose it and forge your own destiny.

                                                                                                                                                                              Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                                                Welcome to season 8 of this podcast, where I am talking all about the Suit of Swords. I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                                                • The Eight of Swords as a card of fear, paralysis, and self-imposed restriction

                                                                                                                                                                                • Symbolism across decks: ropes, mirrored blades, blindfolds, darkness, and isolation

                                                                                                                                                                                • Why this card often asks us to examine the stories we’ve internalized about our worth

                                                                                                                                                                                • How overthinking, shame, and outdated beliefs create cages we can’t see

                                                                                                                                                                                • The quiet, radical power of reclaiming agency and moving toward freedom

                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                                                                Pictures from the decks I talked about today referenced from left to right:

                                                                                                                                                                                • The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington

                                                                                                                                                                                In this episode, I dive deep into the Eight of Swords as a card of self-imposed limitations. Whether the ropes are made of fear, perfectionism, shame, or outdated beliefs, the message is clear: we have the power to untie ourselves. 

                                                                                                                                                                                This is a card about mental prisons—patterns that feel like protection but often come at the cost of movement, joy, or connection. Sometimes, the hardest part of liberation is admitting we're already holding the key.

                                                                                                                                                                                From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Witch (upright). This card represents experimentation and rebellion. It asks us to break free of rules and traditions that were never made with us in mind. It calls us to reimagine how we move through the world, not from fear or convention, but from possibility and creative alignment.

                                                                                                                                                                                The Witch encourages us to think for ourselves, shake up what feels rigid, and give ourselves permission to be wild, curious, and true.

                                                                                                                                                                                Reflective prompts on this card:

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                  • Symbolism across decks: cataclysm, masked figures, spies, fighting, and self-sabotage

                                                                                                                                                                                  • Why this card often asks us to reflect on our own patterns of avoidance or denial

                                                                                                                                                                                  • The tension between clever strategy and sneaky behavior

                                                                                                                                                                                  • How intuition and inner honesty help us avoid repeating painful patterns

This card doesn’t always point to betrayal by others—it can also reveal where we’re deceiving ourselves, avoiding uncomfortable truths, or slipping back into habits that keep us small. From masked figures and snake imagery to clever escapes and harsh realizations, this card asks: Are you ready to tell yourself the truth? Are you willing to let go of outdated strategies that no longer serve you?

                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                                                  This is a card that whispers, “Work smarter, not harder.” But it also says: “Stop gaslighting yourself.” It reminds us that cleverness without self-awareness can turn into sabotage. But with compassion and clarity, we can step out from behind the mask and choose authenticity.

                                                                                                                                                                                  From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Miser (reversed). In the upright position, The Miser warns of control, rigidity, and clinging too tightly to what no longer serves. Reversed, it asks: ‘Where can I loosen my grip? What structures have I inherited or created that no longer support growth, but instead suffocate it?’

                                                                                                                                                                                  This card invites a reckoning with scarcity mindsets, with patterns of domination or fear-based control, and with the parts of us that resist change even when it’s necessary.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Reflective prompts on this card:

It represents the discomfort and necessary movement of growth, the part of the journey where we’re no longer stuck but not yet fully arrived.

Can you let go of what weighs you down? Are you ready to follow the pull of something new, even if it’s unfamiliar?

The Guide shows up when you’re navigating terrain left to you by others—mistakes, legacies, patterns you didn’t start but still carry. The message? It’s up to you now. Accept the situation, do what you can to correct course, and know that the other side holds clarity and strength.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                      • What this card teaches about fighting for your values without losing your empathy

                                                                                                                                                                                      In this episode, we look at the Five of Swords as a card of friction, fragmentation, personal sovereignty, and the consequences of boundary-setting or overreaching. 

                                                                                                                                                                                      Conflict reveals more about what needs tending within us than who we are up against. Whether you’re in a time of burnout or needing to assert your needs, this card asks you to slow down, reflect, recalibrate, and choose your battles wisely. Your energy is finite; sometimes stepping back is more powerful than charging ahead.

                                                                                                                                                                                      The Five of Swords asks: Are you honoring your limits, or letting the fear of disappointing others cut into your well-being?

This card invites us to zoom out and reflect on the big picture. It speaks to inner vision, cosmic timing, and intuitive knowing, reminding us that some answers don’t come from history or logic but from trust in our own internal compass. You’re in a complex situation, but staying curious and observing the bigger patterns at play can bring clarity.

It’s the chrysalis moment between action and transformation. Whether you're healing from burnout, heartbreak, or just navigating deep life transitions, this card invites you to lay down your sword—physically, mentally, and emotionally—and rest. We talk about what it means to stop pushing and allow space for reflection, integration, and quiet clarity.

                                                                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                                                        

                                                                                                                                                                                        The Four of Swords reminds us that it’s okay to step back, and sometimes essential. Rest is not laziness. It's how we gather strength and discernment before stepping into what's next.

                                                                                                                                                                                        This card brings a message of balance, invention, and destruction. The Alchemist understands that to create something new—whether a project, a relationship, or a transformed self—something else must be dismantled. Nothing is wasted. Instead, what’s been burned becomes the base from which we rebuild.

                                                                                                                                                                                          • The invitation to learn from sorrow, tend to our wounds, and reclaim strength and boundaries through healing

While it’s often known as the heartbreak card, there is power in naming our grief, choosing to feel it fully, and deciding how we want to move forward, especially when our expectations have been shattered. 

                                                                                                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                                                                                          

                                                                                                                                                                                          Whether it’s the quiet ache of unmet needs, the sharp sting of betrayal, or the slow burn of disillusionment, the Three of Swords challenges us to reclaim our energy from those who cannot or will not meet us. It reminds us that releasing pain is not about rushing to “get over it,” but about honoring what we feel and tending to our emotional landscape with honesty and care.

This card signals that a period of mentorship or supportive alliance is beginning. 

                                                                                                                                                                                          You might be stepping into the role of mentor or guide for someone else, or perhaps someone is about to enter your life to help nurture your potential. The Patron reminds us that we don’t have to move through hard times alone. Healing and creative growth often thrive when we are lovingly witnessed and supported.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

It invites us to look at where we’re holding back from choice, not because we don’t know, but because we’re afraid of what choosing might require of us. The blindfold reminds us to trust our intuition when the facts are unclear, and the crossed swords show how we sometimes guard our hearts to delay the inevitable.

That’s when stagnation can start to creep in.

This card speaks to the futility of overthinking and over-researching when the answer just isn’t there right now. You may be trying to “logic” your way through a situation that requires pause, reflection, or emotional presence instead. Sometimes, it’s not about trying harder, it’s about shifting your energy elsewhere.Reflective prompts on this card:

It reminds us that the mind is a tool, one that can liberate us with clarity or trap us in rigidity if misused.

It asks: Where are you ready to wield your personal power with wisdom? Where can you clear away what no longer serves to make space for aligned action?

This card represents a mature mastery of resources, stability, and wisdom gained through lived experience. The King of Pentacles reminds us that true success comes not just from what we build or own, but from how we steward what we have. It invites us to cultivate discipline, patience, and practical leadership—and to consider how our personal foundation supports the well-being of others. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                The deeper invitation here is to check in with ourselves: Are we using our power wisely? Are we honoring both our own growth and the needs of those we serve?

This card speaks to legacy, foundation, and community-building. It’s a reminder that real leadership isn’t about control but laying down the sword, picking up the hammer, and helping build something lasting. It invites reflection on where you can offer steady support and where you might need to trust others to carry part of the work.

She reminds us that abundance is not just material wealth, but also the richness of connection, groundedness, and presence in the here and now. The Queen shows us that tending to what we value takes patience and daily devotion, and that we can hold space for growth without rushing the process.

How are you cultivating a life that feels rooted, abundant, and sustainable?

It asks us to pause and reflect before leaping into action, reminding us that not every challenge requires a fight. Sometimes, true strength is in choosing a different response—one rooted in empathy, understanding, and perspective.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  The Brawler invites us to ask: What conflicts are worth engaging in? Where might we be clinging to stubbornness or defensiveness? How can we approach situations with clarity and compassion rather than reactivity?

This is a card of diligence, patience, and perseverance—a reminder that progress is not always flashy or fast, but built through quiet consistency and care.

It asks: How are you tending to your goals even when no one is watching? How do you stay rooted in your values while adapting to the unknowns of the journey? This card reminds us that resilience is not just surviving challenges but continuing to walk the path with intention, humility, and faith in the process.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Herald upright. This card speaks to the power of embracing change and stepping forward with hope, even when the path feels uncertain. The Herald invites us to release regrets and stop clinging to “what could have been.” Instead, it encourages us to be an active participant in creating something new and meaningful.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    The Herald teaches that reflection is valuable, but we cannot let it overshadow the present. By letting go of the weight of old decisions and missed opportunities, we make space for fresh possibilities and deeper joy in the here and now.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

This card holds the energy of a dedicated student, someone willing to show up fully even when the road ahead is unfamiliar. The Page reminds us that learning takes time and practice, and that progress often comes from steady effort rather than perfection.

Are we giving ourselves permission to explore without rushing? Are we tending to our dreams with the patience they deserve? The Page of Pentacles encourages us to embrace the process, trust the small steps, and stay open to the lessons along the way.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Scholar in reverse. This card is usually about perseverance, learning, and following a steady path forward. In reverse, The Scholar gently signals that the answers we are searching for may not be available right now. It invites us to pause, step back, and consider whether we are pouring energy into something that needs to be released or redirected.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                                                                    

                                                                                                                                                                                                    This pull asks us to let go of the urge to push harder, and instead explore new perspectives or different paths. Sometimes the work we think we need to be doing is not the work that will truly serve us. The Scholar encourages us to honor the season we are in and trust that stepping back can be its own form of wisdom.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      In this episode, we talk about the Ten of Pentacles, a card of legacy, fulfillment, and wholeness. It marks the moment when effort ripens into abundance, when the structures we’ve tended offer not just support for ourselves but nourishment for others.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      The Ten of Pentacles invites us to reflect on how we’re contributing to something greater than ourselves: a family, a community, a legacy that outlives us. It asks: What are you weaving into the fabric of the world? How are you nurturing the people and spaces that will carry your love, wisdom, and resources forward?

                                                                                                                                                                                                      True wealth isn’t just about money; it’s also about the richness of a life well-lived, surrounded by care, connection, and community.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright,  I pulled The Poet (reversed), a card about relationships and vulnerability. In reverse, The Poet reminds us that in protecting ourselves from hurt, we can unintentionally wall ourselves off from meaningful connection. It invites us to notice where self-protection has become isolation, and to consider what relationships (human or otherwise) we’re willing to nurture, risk for, and invite deeper intimacy with.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      This card asks: What would it mean to be known, to be witnessed, to let others see both your strength and your softness? Vulnerability is not weakness, but an essential part of a fulfilling life shared with others.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      Reflective prompts on this card:

This card invites us to pause and truly receive the rewards of our labor. It’s a moment of standing in your power, acknowledging all that you’ve cultivated, and letting yourself experience the pleasure, security, and comfort you’ve worked so hard to create.

                                                                                                                                                                                                        The Nine of Pentacles reminds us that independence doesn’t have to mean isolation, and wealth isn’t only material—it’s the richness of knowing you’ve shown up fully for yourself. It asks: “Can you let yourself enjoy what you’ve built, without guilt or hesitation? Can you claim joy as your birthright?”

The Pilgrim reminds us that even when we achieve milestones, the path continues, and each step holds discovery. It invites us to keep moving forward with curiosity, gratitude, and trust in the unfolding road.Reflective prompts on this card:

                                                                                                                                                                                                          In this episode, we explore the layered meanings of the Six of Pentacles, a card that sits at the tender intersection of giving and receiving. At a glance, it may seem like a simple message about charity, but this card carries a much deeper message about dignity, power, and relational exchange.

                                                                                                                                                                                                          Whether you’re the one offering support or the one in need of it, this card invites you to consider what true generosity looks like. It asks us to question the systems that shape our understanding of worth, value, and deservingness. We reflect on how monetary value often obscures energetic worth, and how the act of giving (when done without mutual respect) can tip into performance or control.

                                                                                                                                                                                                          We discuss imagery from multiple decks, but across each version, a consistent truth remains: giving and receiving are sacred. Generosity is not a one-way street, and vulnerability is not weakness.

                                                                                                                                                                                                          This card also nudges us to reflect on how we accept help. Are we closed off to receiving? Do we feel shame around needing support? The Six of Pentacles reminds us that care is cyclical, and when we give and receive in balance, we cultivate a stronger, more resilient community.

                                                                                                                                                                                                          The Shepherd reminds us that leadership doesn’t have to look loud or flashy. Sometimes, it looks like tending to the well-being of those around us in slow, intentional ways. Like the Six of Pentacles, this card reflects care, duty, and the importance of ensuring others are safe, nourished, and not left behind.

                                                                                                                                                                                                          It’s a reminder that mutual support is what allows us all to rest. In the community, you are protected, and you get to protect others too!

This card speaks to experiences of loss, hardship, and feeling left out in the cold, both literally and metaphorically. It is a card that reveals our vulnerability and our deepest fears about not being enough.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            We explore imagery across several decks, from spiraling patterns symbolizing interconnected loss to shriveled plants representing life pulling back during hard seasons. This card asks us to sit with our discomfort, to acknowledge our needs, and to resist the urge to retreat into shame or self-judgment.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            The Five of Pentacles doesn’t sugarcoat the ache. But it also offers a powerful reminder: even in the middle of the storm, we are not alone. There are ways forward. It calls us to acknowledge our needs with compassion, recognize when we’re seeking validation from others, and start building a more secure connection to ourselves from the inside out.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            Today’s card came from The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright and was The Botanist, which explores themes of parenthood, reparenting, and stepping into adult-to-adult relationships.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            The Botanist (reversed) encourages us to let go of old dynamics, especially the ones where we wait for someone else to affirm our worth or offer safety. Instead, it asks us to cultivate trust in ourselves. In the context of the Five of Pentacles, this means moving from survival mode into deeper, rooted self-belief.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            This card reminds us that we are allowed to outgrow people, patterns, and beliefs that no longer serve us, even if that means confronting uncomfortable truths about how we’ve been taught to measure our value.

Often read as a card about control or holding on too tightly, this card speaks to the fear that arises before a big leap. It's that moment right before transformation when your subconscious says, “Nope, not safe,” even though your heart is quietly asking you to grow.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              We look at how this card shows up visually in various decks—figures clutching oversized coins, snakes coiled around their spirals, hands gripping with uncertainty. These images illuminate the psychological and emotional toll of clinging to what feels secure.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              The Four of Pentacles doesn’t shame us for wanting stability. Instead, it invites us to examine where we're creating walls instead of boundaries. It asks us to explore our relationship with scarcity, safety, and control—and to choose trust and curiosity over fear when it’s time to loosen our grip.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              Today’s card came from The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle, and it was The Brawler from the Troupe suit. This card challenges us to step back from conflict and see where we might be responding to life with fists already raised—figuratively or literally.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              The message here is clear: if we’re hitting the same wall over and over, it may be time to change direction or soften our approach. The Brawler reminds us that confrontation is not always strength. Sometimes, true strength is being willing to try a new way, ask a different question, or simply rest when the old ways stop working.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              In this episode, we talk about the grounded teamwork of the Three of Pentacles. This is a card about building something bigger than yourself through steady collaboration, communication, and shared vision. Whether you're working on a creative project, learning a new skill, or deepening your role within a group, the Three of Pentacles celebrates your effort and reminds you—you don’t have to do it alone.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              We explore the visual symbolism of this card across several decks, including golden spirals, joined hands, and sacred geometric shapes that hint at harmony and structure. These images reinforce the idea that collective efforts thrive when we honor each person’s gifts and give ourselves room to grow through trial, error, and refinement.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              This card also invites us to soften perfectionism. To honor the beauty in being teachable. To celebrate the milestones we’ve already reached while staying open to what's still unfolding.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                              In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                              In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              And in season 6, I went through the Suit of Wands.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                                                                                                                                                              Today’s card came from The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, and it was The Champion, drawn in reverse.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              In this context, the Champion warns us about burnout, stagnation, and the inner critic that whispers we’re not doing enough. But its message also nudges us back toward self-trust and reminds us that we’re allowed to lean on others.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              In moments when we doubt ourselves, we can return to the relationships and routines that help us remember why we started in the first place.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                In this episode, we talk about the balance-seeking energy of the Two of Pentacles. This is a card about managing competing priorities and staying grounded in motion. Whether you’re navigating work-life balance, juggling finances, or simply trying to stay afloat emotionally, this card invites you to shift with the tides rather than resist them.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                We explore imagery across several decks, from aliens holding cacti to interwoven snakes and cosmic hearts. These images remind us that balance isn’t always perfect symmetry. Sometimes it's about playful presence, adaptability, and remembering that you can move through life’s fluctuations without losing your spark.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                The Two of Pentacles also connects to the Magician and the Wheel of Fortune, hinting at the interplay between skill and chance. It asks: how do you respond when plans unravel? Can you keep laughing? Can you stay flexible without abandoning yourself?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                                                                                                If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads, what they are, how many cards, and an example of what it looks like to work through one.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                And in season 6 I talked all about the Suit of Wands.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                Today’s card pull comes from The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle and features The Priest, a figure of perseverance and faith. In the quiet warmth of the temple, the Priest reminds us that hope can be chosen, even in the midst of uncertainty. Just like the Two of Pentacles, this oracle encourages us to return to our center when the world gets noisy, and to trust that we are equipped to weather whatever waves come our way.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  • The symbolism of her imagery across multiple decks
                                                                                                                                                                                                                  • The connection between sacred fire and creative discipline
                                                                                                                                                                                                                  • How to access and sustain self-trust, even when you feel unseen
                                                                                                                                                                                                                  • Why warmth and boundaries are not opposites

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  • The Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. Williams

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  The Queen of Wands embodies charisma, warmth, and unshakable confidence. She’s the kind of presence that lights up a room, not by demanding attention, but by being so fully herself. With a black cat at her feet and a sunflower in her hand in traditional depictions, she blends fierce independence with intuitive connection.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  This card calls us into integrity and asks us to meet the moment with presence and pride. In The Library of Esoterica, she is described as a leader undaunted by challenge—one who embraces success while staying rooted in her principles. She reminds us: true power doesn’t shrink or shout. It radiates.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Today's card pull came from the Anima Mundi Tarot Deck and offered the Two of Cups Reversed—a gentle nudge about what happens when we disconnect from ourselves or deprioritize what lights us up. Are we tending to our inner flame, or letting it fizzle while chasing external approval? This pull reminds us that disconnection and imbalance often point back to unmet creative and emotional needs.

This is the traveler of the tarot, ready to break free from monotony and leap into the unknown. Ruled by mutable fire and associated with Sagittarius, this card often shows up when we are craving motion, novelty, or creative breakthroughs. It celebrates courage, but also invites us to check our impulses—are we moving forward with purpose, or just trying to outrun discomfort?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads, what they are, how many cards, and an example of what it looks like to work through one.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Today’s pull was the Page of Swords, reversed, from The Sasuraibito Tarot by Stasia Burrington. This card reminds us to balance excitement with thoughtfulness. It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of new ideas and changes, but we also need to stay grounded in our communication and mindful of how our choices ripple outward. Be bold, yes—but also be clear!

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      • How sensuality, pleasure, and imagination shape this card across decks

It is the part of you that gets lit up when you talk about something you love, when you see someone doing what you long to do, or when you daydream about a path that feels just out of reach.

It invites you to let yourself be led by curiosity and enthusiasm rather than hesitation or self-doubt.

The Page of Wands reminds us that the path does not have to be clear before we take the first step. All we need is a willingness to start.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads, what they are, how many cards, and an example of what it looks like to work through one.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      From the Desert Illuminations Tarot, I pulled the Five of Jugs Upright. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      This card represents emotional setbacks or moments when something did not turn out the way you hoped. You might be focused on what's been spilled—the broken jugs, the mess, the feelings that are hard to hold. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      It invites you to honor your feelings of grief and disappointment while gently reminding you that something is still salvageable. Usually, two upright jugs remain in the background, a symbol that not everything is lost even if your attention is stuck on what hurts.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Reflective prompts on this card:

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

It is a card about taking on too much, sometimes because you have to, and sometimes because you have been conditioned to think you should.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Whether it shows up as work, caregiving, emotional labor, or too many commitments, this card asks you to consider what you are holding that is no longer yours to carry.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      We explore imagery across several decks, from spider webs and atomic explosions to burning figures and fallen roses. These symbols help us understand the physical, emotional, and energetic toll of overcommitment.

It encourages us to begin the necessary work of letting go.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      From the Desert Illuminations Tarot, I pulled the Five of Jugs reversed. This suit corresponds to water in the deck. The card speaks to lost opportunities and emotional overwhelm. Reversed, it invites reflection on what did not go as planned and how to forgive ourselves for what we could not predict or control.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                                                                                                                                                                                                                      It mirrors the theme of this episode perfectly. We might be doing too much out of guilt, fear, or the need to prove our worth. Letting go of what no longer serves us is the first step toward reclaiming our energy.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        What we explore in this episode:

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        • Symbolism across decks: broken bones being set, loosely constructed barriers, plucked roots, and defensive postures

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        • How the Nine of Wands represents perseverance, guardedness, and the tension of being “almost there”

It shows up when we’ve been through a lot and are still standing. Whether you’re holding your last line of defense or learning to trust again after a hard season, this card asks:

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads, what they are, how many cards, and an example of what it looks like to work through one.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Today's Tarot Pull:

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        From the Therapists Who Tarot Deck, I pulled The Wheel of Fortune.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        This card is a reminder that life moves in cycles. You don’t control what comes up on the wheel, but you do get to choose how you respond to it.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Reflection prompts:

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        But what happens when things move so quickly we forget to pause and ask: do I even want what I’m rushing toward? 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        This card invites us to consider how we act when things are in motion, and what it means to let go of control when so much is still uncertain.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads, what they are, how many cards, and an example of what it looks like to work through one.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        • What are you beginning to doubt, and is that doubt rooted in truth or fear?
                                                                                                                                                                                                                        • What would it feel like to move toward joy instead of just what’s logical?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        This card asks us to stay present and stay bright, even when things feel fast or unclear. The sun reminds us that we can root into optimism and clarity, even when life speeds up around us.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

I pulled a card that challenges us to think about what we’re willing to fight for, and how we can stay grounded in ourselves when we feel under pressure.

This card shows up when it’s time to hold firm after success, to protect your boundaries, your values, and your energy from those who might challenge or undermine them.

I also shared a visualization I use for energetic shielding, along with some thoughts on how protest and activism intersect with our internal fire.

This card celebrates triumph, confidence, and the joy of being seen.

We'll also reflect on how the Six of Wands sits between the conflict of the Five and the pressure of the Seven.

Or are you finally being celebrated for who you truly are?

To lead from our values. To shine brightly because we are anchored in what matters most.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            In this episode, we're exploring the Five of Wands, a card that speaks to creative tension, internal restlessness, and the kind of challenge that invites transformation.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            The Five of Wands often appears when you are on the verge of something meaningful, but things feel messy. Maybe you are encountering resistance. Maybe there’s competition, miscommunication, or internal friction. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            This card reminds us that growth rarely happens in a vacuum. There is heat. There is fire. And sometimes, there is chaos. This is the kind of challenge that helps clarify your voice and your values. It is a reminder that challenge does not mean failure, but movement. Let the friction refine your fire and teach you how to hold your own in the heat.

It’s about pausing to celebrate, recognizing stability, and creating sacred moments of connection.

It asks us to look around and take in what we’ve built so far. No striving, just presence.

This is the moment after the spark has been lit but before the journey unfolds. It asks us to check in with our dreams and our direction, and to trust in the energy we’ve already set in motion.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads, what they are, how many cards, and an example of what it looks like to work through one.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                I pulled the Page of Wands (or as it’s called in the Desert Illuminations Tarot, the Page of Chilies!) and honestly, it couldn’t have been a more aligned message to close out this episode. The card reminds us: We don’t have to do it all alone. Sometimes a new path calls for a guide, a mentor, or even just a supportive presence to help shape the direction of that energy.

I’ll be going through each card in the suit, one per episode.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  In seasons 2 and 3, I went through the major arcana and the four suits, one per episode. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  In season 4, I talked all about Tarot in Pop Culture and examined representations of Tarot in videogames, TV shows, movies, and more. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  In season 5, I went through 13 Common Tarot Spreads, what they are, how many cards, and an example of what it looks like to work through one.

It’s time to sit with the Two of Wands.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  There’s a tension here between staying in your current comfort zone (represented by one wand behind the figure in many traditional decks) and stepping into the unknown, where the other wand points. It’s a card of personal power and intention, but not yet action.

Today we’re onto season 3 where I will go through the final 9 cards in the Major Arcana and then talk about each suit.

Today we’re onto season 3 where I will go through the final 9 cards in the Major Arcana and then talk about each suit.

Maybe you’ll even find a deck that you really like and can search for that particular one in the future.

Maybe you’ll even find a deck that you really like and can search for that particular one in the future.

Today we’re onto season 3 where I will go through the final 9 cards in the Major Arcana and then talk about each suit.

Maybe you’ll even find a deck that you really like and can search for that particular one in the future.

Today we’re onto season 3 where I will go through the final 9 cards in the Major Arcana and then talk about each suit.

Maybe you’ll even find a deck that you really like and can search for that particular one in the future.

Today we’re entering season three where I will go through the final nine cards in the Major Arcana and then talk about each suit.

Maybe you’ll even find a deck that you really like and can search for that particular one in the future.

Maybe you’ll even find a deck that you really like and can search for that particular one in the future.

It is formatted like a traditional Rider-Waite Smith deck but has a bit of a goth, Pacific Northwest vibe to it.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  The artist actually has a lovely website where they go through their general idea for the deck, the themes, and a description of each card they created and who they imagined in each image.

They symbolize gentleness in motion, teaching us how to move through life with presence, vulnerability, and strength.

This card calls us to hold the tension of opposites: stillness and motion, grief and joy, solitude and connection. It reminds us, like deer, to find presence on the edge—between safety and risk, quiet and boldness.

This season, we’re exploring the sacred bond between the tarot and our animal allies.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    In this episode, we talk about frogs—amphibious creatures of duality, sensitivity and strength, stillness and song. Frogs are potent guide through life’s transitions. They are associated with transformation, adaptability, and emotional healing. Frog energy invites us to move through discomfort, trust our evolution, and honor the slow magic of change.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Let’s dig into their lore, their tarot appearances, and the lessons they bring when they show up in your life (or your deck!)

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Frog Symbolism in Myth & Magic

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Frogs are powerful symbols of transformation, emotional renewal, adaptability, and the cyclical nature of life. Their journey from egg to tadpole to frog mirrors our own phases of becoming—reminding us that growth often happens in stages, not all at once. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    In folklore and spiritual practices, frogs are rain-callers. Their croaking often precedes rainstorms, tying them to cleansing and renewal.

Their croaking is known to precede rainstorms, tying them to renewal and the sacred power of voice. In witchcraft and magical traditions, frogs are seen as both protectors and omens of luck, often linked with spell-work, transformation, and vibrational sensitivity.

Life spins us through cycles: ups and downs, growth and rest. Frog energy helps us navigate those transitions with grace and resilience.
