I get a number of emails from folks asking me to look at their decks or books or Kickstarters for these. I always check them out, and if they speak to me, I like to support the kickstarter, or review the deck or book, or jump up and down and post about it on my blog. With this deck, by Eva DuPlan, made me want to do all three. There was jumping. There is going to be supporting, and here’s the post. I love this playful, gorgeous deck SO much. I love the representation, I love the cool interpretations of …
Tarot: Support for empowered living – Siobhan
I think I first found Siobhan on the ever-giving wondrous blog of Beth Maiden at littleredtarot.com. I am always ready to learn, and Siobhan’s writing about tarot, life, and one of my favorite articles about how to be an earnest ally. If you haven’t yet, go to her website and just start reading. She’s insightful, funny and I have a gigantic crush on her. That’s probably not relevant, but here we are. 🙂 Siobhan filled out the questionnaire for us. I hope you take the time to get to know her and her wonderful work. LFT Questionnaire What you appreciate …
With my willingness to connect with you on a heart-to-heart level, my readings are healing and authentic. – Sarah Barry
During a massive binge of The Hermit’s Lamp podcast, I heard the delightful story of how Sarah Barry started reading professionally. She just did it. Such enormous bravery – she’s seriously one of my heroes. And look at her frickin bike! Anyway, she’s now been reading for years and has such an enthusiasm for tarot – it’s engaging. She’s got a blog that dates back to 2010, and I’ve learned so much from her. Sarah is on Instagram and Facebook, and you should also sign up for her newsletter. I love that the internet brings me closer to kickass Australian …
I love doing spells – it’s like spiritual crafting – Michelle Tea
Michelle Tea‘s Modern Tarot is the first of her many books that I’ve read, but definitely won’t be the last. Tea’s take on tarot (I fucking love being alliterative) is just what it says it is – a modern take on the tarot. She and I had similar introductions to the cards – at age 14, one of our guy friends gave us a deck – and off we went. Each card description ends with a spell to help you touch the card. Be the Emperor. Be the Queen of Cups. James Wanless uses a similar technique to learn the …
The World is Calling Us to Get Real. – Nancy Antenucci
I’ve never met Nancy Antenucci, or as I like to call her in my head, “The Nucc”. We haven’t met in life, but online, I feel like we’ve been best friends for about 30 years. I was tickled to get an inscribed copy of her book, Psychic Tarot, with the note “To a special kindred that I haven’t met but I sure as shit know.” Yeah. We’re bffs. Like all of my good friends, the first thing Nancy does with her book is call me on my nonsense. I have never liked being called a psychic, because it feels like …
