  Samhain Spread 03.11.2025 37min

  In today’s episode, we’re exploring the Samhain Tarot Spread —a four-card ritual designed for the witch’s new year. 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 HipsterRituals and reflections for honoring ancestors during the witch’s new yearWhat “seeing through the veil” really means in tarot practiceFacing fears and releasing outdated beliefsThe Samhain Tarot SpreadSamhain (pronounced saa-win) marks the moment when the veil between worlds thins—the season of remembrance, endings, and deep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 This four-card spread helps you honor your lineage, see clearly through the mist, and compost outdated stories so renewal can take root.The Prompts:How to Honor Your Ancestors - What offering, story, or act of remembrance can bring you closer to them?How to See Through the Veil - What intuitive practice will help you hear what your guides are whispering?Fears to Face and Release - Which shadow asks to be witnessed and loved into transformation?A Message from Your Ancestors - Guidance, blessing, or reassurance from beyond the veil.Credit The Samhain Tarot Spread by New Age Hipster Decks used: The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington 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.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.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.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.Connect & SupportSpooky Halloween! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab my Queer Coven Spooky 6-card spread here! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out Kayla Moore’s Connected Pleasure podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Living by the Body, Dreaming of Land, and Weaving the Future⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Be Our Guest! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fill out my form to Be a Guest on my Podcast!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Recent New Moon Collective Tarot Reading⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn how to create your own Tarot Cards with collage!  No art skills?

  Artemis 13.10.2025 44min

  Tarot & Queer DeitiesWelcome back to Everyday Tarot! Season 16 is devoted to queer deities, and today, we turn to Artemis—the Greek goddess of the hunt, the moon, and the wild.What we explore in this episode:The myth of ArtemisArtemis as a queer deityTarot cards archetypes that resonate with Artemis: The Moon, The High Priestess, The Hanged Man, Strength, Suit of SwordsThe Myth of ArtemisDaughter 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 DeityIn 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 darknessThe High Priestess - Sacred autonomy, inner knowing, and feminine sovereigntyThe Hanged Man - Shifting perspectives, surrender, and liberation from old patternsStrength - Gentle courage, emotional mastery, and harmony with natureSuit of Swords - Clarity, precision, intellect, and truth as protection and power💭 Today's Tarot Pull:From The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck: A Book and Deck for Embodying The Erotic Divine Feminine, I pulled the Wheel of Fortune.This card arrives as a sacred reminder that the universe turns in rhythm with your own evolution. What feels uncertain now may be a necessary turn of fate guiding you toward balance and renewal.Reflective prompts on this card:Where in my life am I resisting change that’s meant to move me forward?How can I honor my wildness without losing my center?What does sovereignty look like in my relationships, my work, or my creative practice?Ways to Connect & SupportSpooky Halloween!

  Knight of Swords 27.05.2025 27min

  Knight of SwordsWelcome 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 Knight of Swords as a card of action, ambition, urgency, and pursuitSymbolism across decks: horses, charging into battle, haste, new adventuresHow this card can reflect drive, impatience, or a desire to prove somethingWhat happens when we charge ahead without checking inPictures from the decks I talked about today referenced from left to right:Anima Mundi Tarot Deck by Megan Wyreweden The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia BurringtonThe Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. WilliamsIn this episode, we explore the forward-rushing, goal-driven energy of the Knight of Swords. 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?’If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!Season 1 - Tarot basicsSeasons 2 & 3 - Major Arcana and 4 suitsSeason 4 - Tarot in Pop CultureSeason 5 - Tarot SpreadsSeason 6 - Suit of WandsSeason 7 - Suit of PentaclesToday's Tarot Pull:From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Cartographer (reversed). 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.Reflective prompts on this card:Where am I collecting ideas but avoiding action?How is indecision or overplanning keeping me from real progress?What one path feels most aligned to focus on right now?Ways to Connect & SupportPatreon: For monthly hangouts, tarot Q&As, individual readings, and behind-the-scenes peeks, join the Every Day Tarot Patreon family.Newsletter: Get my FREE 2025 5-Card Tarot Spread PDF + weekly musings, event invites, and magic straight to your inbox.Let’s Talk Tarot Meetup: If you’re Local to the Greater Puget Sound area check out the Let’s Talk Tarot Meetup group for the latest event postings. If you’re NOT local to my area, you can join me for a VIRTUAL tarot card creation event on Friday June 20th at 5pm Pacific Daylight Time.

  Tarot and Pets 30.06.2025 30min

  What we explore in this episode:Why pets are drawn to your tarot energy and how they sense your emotionsHow to ask for your pet’s consent before intuitive workA five-card spread to deepen your connection and understand your pet’s needsSimple ways to honor and nurture your sacred bond every dayHow to do a 5-card Pet Connection spread:1. Shuffle and Ground YourselfThis spread is designed to help you understand and deepen your bond with your animal companion. 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.2. Pull 5 Cards1: A card to represent your connection2: Something special you share together3: How you can better understand each other4: An activity to nurture your bond5: Why were you brought together3. Reflect and RecordYou can journal your reflections, share them aloud with your pet, or simply hold them close in your heart.In today’s reading, I pulled a 5-card spread for pets with Anima Mundi Tarot Deck. 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.Reflective prompts on this card:In what ways do I feel a sense of wholeness and completion in my relationship with my pet? Where do I notice that we help each other feel “at home” in the world?How have we grown and transformed together over time?Ways to Connect & SupportIf you weren’t able to attend my live tarot card creation event, you can get the full hour long recording with my step by step method, examples of the tarot cards I’ve created, journaling questions, and PDF to walk you through it for just $33.

  Ishtar 20.10.2025 36min

  Welcome back to Everyday Tarot! 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 IshtarIshtar as a queer deityTarot cards resonant with Ishtar: The High Priestess, The StarThe 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 DeityIshtar 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.If you haven't listened to my other seasons yet, go check them out!💭 Today's Tarot Pull:From Norse Goddess Rune Oracle by Rebecca Joy Stark and illustrated by Sharon McLeod, I pulled the Seed of Life Fertility, Creation, New BeginningsThis 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.Reflective prompts on this card:What creative seed is quietly germinating within me?Where can I surrender control and allow transformation to unfold?How do I honor both destruction and creation as sacred parts of my path?Ways to Connect & SupportSpooky Halloween! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab my Queer Coven Spooky 6-card spread here! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my episode of Kayla Moore’s Connected Pleasure podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Living by the Body, Dreaming of Land, and Weaving the Future⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Work with Kayla here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Be Our Guest! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fill out my form to Be a Guest on my Podcast!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn how to create your own Tarot Cards with collage!  No art skills?

  Tarot and Amber 06.10.2025 25min

  Welcome back to Every Day Tarot where Season 15 is all about tarot and crystals, and today we talk about Amber, ancient tree resin turned solidified sunlight.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 AmberAstrological associations with the Sun and LeoAmber: 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 healthUplift mood and break stagnant energyAttract love, luck, money, and successMagnify beauty and enhance confidenceStrengthen bonds with spirit guides and familiarsAmber 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.💭 Today's Tarot Pull:From Norse Goddess Rune Oracle, I pulled the Vör Norse Goddess - Secrets, Hidden Truths, RisksThis card embodies chaos, destruction, and renewal—the storm that tears apart the old so something new can be born. Like hail shattering the routine, Hel invites us to release what no longer serves and to trust that transformation is preparing us for our deeper purpose.Reflective prompts on this card:What patterns are breaking so that truth can emerge?Where am I being invited to surrender control and embrace courage?How will I rebuild stronger and wiser once the storm clears?Ways to Connect & SupportTarot for Transformation Live Course starting in 2026: In this offer we will be deep diving into the Major Arcana to Discover Our Best Selves and Create a Life Worth Living.

  Gold 27.11.2025 33min

  In this episode, we talk about the power of gold—the color of sunlight, harvest, sacred wisdom, and the kind of abundance that’s earned slowly over time. 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” currentHow gold connects to seasonal and sabbat correspondences in witchcraftThe way gold shows up symbolically in tarot and oracle imageryUnderstanding Gold in Color MagicGold 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 radianceAbundance and rewardHarvest and “earned” wealthHonor, recognition, and prestigeEnlightenment and illuminationDivine inspiration, poetry, and sacred knowledgeGold 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 ritualsLong-term prosperity and sustainability (not just quick cash)Creative recognition, visibility, and sharing your workIllumination in study, writing, music, and poetrySolar offerings and working with deities of light, truth, and inspirationTarot, Symbolism, and the Power of GoldBecause 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 OracleJera | 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 OracleDivination - 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.💭 Today's Tarot Pull:From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Botanist (Reversed).The Botanist is usually the one who studies, nurtures, and understands growth—a caretaker of plants, cycles, and ecosystems.

  Five of Cups 05.06.2025 26min

  Five of CupsWelcome to season 9 of this podcast, where I am talking all about the Suit of Cups. 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 healingSymbolism across decks: spilled cups, sorrowful figures, broken hearts, and overlooked blessingsWhy this card asks us to feel our feelings fully before we can move onThe power of shifting perspective without bypassing what hurtsPictures from the decks I talked about today referenced from left to right:The Goddess of Love Tarot Deck: A Book and Deck for Embodying The Erotic Divine Feminine by Gabriela Herstik and illustrated by Julia PopescuThe Desert Illuminations Tarot by Lindsay D. WilliamsTherapists Who Tarot Deck, Prompts by Dreya Blume and Images by Rebecca BloomIn 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?This card doesn’t rush us into gratitude. It reminds us that transformation begins in truth. That looking at what hurts is the first step toward remembering what’s still possible.Check out my other seasons!Season 1 - Tarot basicsSeasons 2 & 3 - Major Arcana and 4 suitsSeason 4 - Tarot in Pop CultureSeason 5 - Tarot SpreadsSeason 6 - Suit of WandsSeason 7 - Suit of PentaclesSeason 8 - Suit of SwordsToday's Tarot Pull: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:What story am I still telling myself about what I’ve lost?What would it take for me to turn around and see what’s still standing?Where am I avoiding conflict or emotional truth in the name of “peace” and what would it feel like to gently face it?Ways to Connect & SupportPatreon: For monthly hangouts, tarot Q&As, individual readings, and behind-the-scenes peeks, join the Every Day Tarot Patreon family.Newsletter: Get my FREE 2025 5-Card Tarot Spread PDF + magic straight to your inbox.Let’s Talk Tarot Meetup: If you’re Local to the Greater Puget Sound area check out the Let’s Talk Tarot Meetup group for the latest event postings. If you’re NOT local to my area, you can join me for a VIRTUAL tarot card creation event on Friday June 20th at 5pm Pacific Daylight Time.

  Pink 25.11.2025 22min

  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 destructionGrounding, physical embodiment, primal life forcePurple or white (Crown chakra):Divine connection, higher wisdom, soul energySpiritual insight, source, and transcendencePink 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 romancePartnerships and intimacyFriendships, goodwill, and social warmthPeaceful connection and reconciliationEmotional healing and gentle self-compassionNurturing and care, for self and othersTarot, Symbolism, and the Power of PinkPink 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 TarotThe 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 playfulnessDeep feeling inside dynamic or chaotic situationsHeart energy woven into fire, air, or earth experiencesHigh 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, clarity, and a willingness to communicate instead of defaulting to petty tactics or defensiveness.The Maiden of Cups is: vulnerable, dreamy, and wildly open-hearted. Pink in this card highlights the courage it takes to say what you feel, to risk softness, and to let yourself be moved by beauty and affection.Reflective prompts on this card:Where am I being invited to soften without abandoning my boundaries?How do I express what I am truly feeling, even when it makes me vulnerable?In what ways am I fighting for love, and in what ways am I just fighting out of habit or fear?How can I invite more tenderness, sweetness, and playfulness into my relationships—including my relationship with myself?Ways to Connect & Support:Join my Newsletter to get my⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE 2025 5-Card Tarot Spread PDF⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ + magic straight to your inbox

  Silver 28.11.2025 32min

  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 greySilver’s connection to the Moon, winter, and liminal thresholdsDay-of-the-week and seasonal correspondences for silverHow “moon energy” and silver show up in tarot and oracle symbolismUnderstanding 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 deitiesIntuition, dreams, and psychic sensitivityThe subconscious, mystery, and the unseenReflection—self-inquiry, journaling, and emotional processingProtection from harmful or draining influencesThreshold spaces: endings, beginnings, and journeys through the unknownSilver 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 ritualsAncestral or spirit communicationIntuition-building practicesEmotional protection and energetic boundariesNavigating transitions and big inner decisionsTarot, Symbolism, and the Power of SilverSince metallic ink can be hard to reproduce, silver often shows up symbolically in tarot and oracle decks through:Moonlight, stars, and night skiesWater, glass, and reflective surfacesCool palettes like blues, greys, whitesAnimals and figures associated with nighttime, intuition, or liminalityBelow 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 OracleJourney - 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.💭 Today's Tarot Pull:From Anima Mundi Tarot Deck by Megan Wyreweden, I pulled The Lovers (Upright).Bring more honest communication into your relationships, starting with how you speak to yourself. Make choices that are aligned with your inner truth, not just external expectations. Reflective prompts on this card:Where have I overridden my intuition for the sake of harmony?Where in my life am I being asked to make a clear, heart-centered choice?What values do I want my relationships to be rooted in?Ways to Connect & SupportJoin my newsletter list to get my⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE 2025 5-Card Tarot Spread PDF⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ + magic straight to your inboxBe a Guest on my Podcast!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

It is a sacred crystal of the goddess, embodying beauty, forgiveness, and emotional balance. While often thought of as soft, rose quartz also carries the energy of tough love, helping us release old wounds and claim our worthiness.In this episode, we explore rose quartz’s myths, magical qualities, and its resonance with tarot archetypes of compassion and transformation.What we explore in this episode:The myths and magical qualities of rose quartzAstrological associations with Venus, Cancer, Libra, Taurus, and SagittariusRose Quartz: Myth, Magic & MeaningRose quartz occurs in both massive and crystal forms, its soft pink hue tied to elements of phosphorus, aluminum, and other inclusions. Artifacts made from rose quartz have been found in China, Europe, and the Near East, often associated with love and beauty—it’s prized for opening the heart and soothing the spirit. In magical practice, rose quartz has been used for:Cultivating self-love and forgivenessHealing old wounds and releasing shameAttracting love and deepening relationshipsConnecting with the maternal and protective aspects of the Great MotherIts elemental signature is Water, and it’s associated with goddess archetypes of Love, Mother, Sacred Harlot, and the Fierce Protectress. Rose quartz reminds us that love is both gentle and strong, capable of nurturing and of setting firm boundaries.Rose Quartz & the TarotRose quartz resonates with archetypes like The Empress, The Lovers, and Death. It embodies beauty, intimacy, and transformation, teaching us that love is not always simple sweetness, but also a practice to grow, release, and honor our truth.💭 Today's Tarot Pull: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, I pulled the Death Goddess Kali (Reversed).Death reversed calls us to surrender resistance and allow transformation.

  Tarot for Pisces Season 16.03.2026 42min

  In this solo episode, I’m exploring Tarot for Pisces season—the final sign of the zodiac, the last breath of winter, and that liminal moment where everything feels a little more dreamlike, porous, and alive with meaning.What We Explore in This Episode:Why is the Pisces season the most liminal part of the zodiac yearThe tarot archetypes tied to Pisces: The Moon + The Hanged ManPisces court card energy: Knight of Cups and the shift toward Queen of WandsCups-season themes: Eight, Nine, Ten of Cups and what they teach us about emotional endings and renewalHow to move from dreamy, mutable Pisces energy into grounded intention and supportive structureSpring 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 TimeJoin 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 SeasonThe 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 SeasonKnight of CupsThis 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 WandsAs 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 familiarNine of Cups (March 1-10 | Jupiter): satisfaction, pleasure, receiving, letting yourself want what you wantTen 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. Pisces season reminder: your softness is not a liability.Six of Air - Cattail This card brings the message, "Question your assumptions and let clarity rise through articulation—especially through writing, reflection, and community processing."The Emperor - Hemlock (Evergreen)Boundaries. Containment. A sturdy frame for what you’re growing. This felt like the perfect bridge into Aries season: Pisces lets us dream, dissolve, and release… and then The Emperor arrives like: “Okay, love. Now build the container that protects your future.”Ways to Connect & Support:Support the podcast for free by listening daily, leaving a review, and subscribing or following in your favorite podcast app.Join⁠ my newsletter list⁠!⁠Be a guest on the podcast⁠Join⁠⁠ my Patreon⁠ community Book a Tarot Reading!

  Palmistry or Reading Palms 22.08.2025 50min

  Divination & The Harry Potter SeriesSeason 13 of Every Day Tarot is all about divination in the wizarding world of Harry Potter, and today we’re turning our attention to palmistry—the ancient art of reading palms. What we explore in this episode:The history and basics of palmistry: lifelines, heart lines, and beyondHow palmistry appears in Harry Potter and why Trelawney kept flinching at Harry’s handsThe 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 HogwartsIn 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.To explore the energy of this episode, I pulled cards from the Sasuraibito TarotAce of Wands - new adventures and authorship of your storyTwo of Pentacles - balance, adaptability, and playful resilienceTwo of Cups - connection and relational bondsFive of Swords - conflict and the consequences of action (or inaction)Each of these cards echoes palmistry’s reminder that our hands are sites of power, choice, and destiny.💭 Today's Tarot Pull:From The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle by Fen Inkwright, I pulled The Herald & The Merchant (Upright).The Herald - A reminder not to get lost in “what ifs” or regrets. The future is written not just in your palm, but in the choices you make today.The Merchant - A card of self-worth, trade, and boundaries. Know what you offer, and don’t be afraid to ask for fair exchange.Reflective prompts on this card:What do your hands say about how you move through the world?Where do you need to balance giving and receiving in your life right now?What “regrets” or “what ifs” could you release to be more present today?How might your hands be instruments of creativity and connection, not just survival?Ways to Connect & SupportTarot Card Creation Workshop: Get the full recording, examples of the tarot cards I’ve created, journaling questions, and PDF to walk you through it for just $33.⁠ Click here to purchase now!⁠12 week Tarot for Transformation Live Course: In this offer we will be deep diving into the Major Arcana to Discover Our Best Selves and Create a Life Worth Living.

  Wild Kuan Yin Oracle by Alana Fairchild 08.12.2025 28min

  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 DeckI 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 cardsA substantial guidebook (almost 300 pages) printed in rich purple ink44 oversized oracle cards that give the artwork plenty of space to breatheEnergetically, 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 answerI’m doing a quick, multi-card spread or “light” check-inthe querent is expecting a traditional tarot structureI’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.Reflective prompts on this card:Where have I been moving so fast that I haven’t actually processed what I’ve experienced?What needs to be harvested from this past season of my life—insights, lessons, boundaries, grief, celebrations?If I trusted that a loving, maternal presence was watching over me, what would I allow myself to release?Ways to Connect & Support:Newsletter: Get my⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE 2025 5-Card Tarot Spread PDF⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ + magic straight to your inboxBe a Guest on my Podcast!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our next event, New Year Full Moon Healing Circle on 1/3 from 2-4pm!

  Tarot and Clover 22.07.2025 25min

  In today’s episode, I’m inviting you to meet Clover—a gentle, lucky, and deeply nourishing plant ally often associated with regeneration, abundance, and emotional healing. We’ll explore its folklore, how it aligns with tarot, and how clover can help us root into our intuition and honor our sensitivity.What we explore in this episode:What clover is and its rich herbal and energetic qualitiesWhich tarot cards and astrological energies clover resonates withPractical ways to work with clover in ritual, self-care, and creative expression💐 Meet the Plant Ally: CloverRed clover (Trifolium pratense) is a common yet powerful plant, flourishing in meadows, pastures, and lawns. 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 & TarotClover resonates with tarot archetypes of emotional renewal, intuitive clarity, and cosmic faith:Eight of Jugs — signals the need to walk away from something that no longer nourishes us.What would you leave behind if you trusted the land could hold you as you step forward?The Star — symbolizing healing, divine timing, and renewed faith. Like clover, The Star reminds us that softness is not weakness, but a source of cosmic strength.Queen of Jugs — embodies emotional intelligence, intuition, and maternal compassion. Like clover, she is soft but powerful.
