An Unlikely Guidebook: Promethea by Alan Moore

An Unlikely Guidebook: Promethea by Alan Moore

A lot of people have asked me something to the effect of, “Yo dawg, where’d you get that fresh perspective?” While no single answer is capable of satisfying that question, many folks tend to shift their attention when the first book I recommend is a graphic novel: Promethea by Alan Moore.

Is it so hard to imagine that a graphic novel is quite possibly one of the most effective means of…

Tarot Theory: Tarot & Narrative

Tarot Theory: Tarot & Narrative

Here’s a video for the exploration of overlap between narrative, abstract psychology and the Tarot, as well as some implications to consider alongside these concepts, should they be veritable in your experience.

I will also be rolling out with a practical component for this subject — working with the Tarot in both reading stories,…

From out of the ashes...

You may have noticed

I’ve been away for awhile.

Things got a little hectic in my personal life — moved in with my significant other, lots of cleaning and getting our home dialed in, putting a ceramics studio together (still working on this one), and some other Tarot-related projects. Been writing an outline for a book and a class, and have some other exciting ideas coming down the pipeline. I was…

I’m bringing some long-awaited renovations to the Tarotscope section, and am working into a solution for disabling all out-going emails so as not to spam your boxes. Thanks for your understanding!

New Tarot Video Channel

New Tarot Video Channel

Hey everyone! I’ve been pretty busy and am in the middle of some minor transitions, but I’ve been thinking about some ways to expand the content here, and videos seemed like an easy choice. I think some people probably prefer video content to articles these days.

To start, these are mostly going to be in a bit of a lecture format since I don’t have much experience (or interest) in video editing.…

Self-love, Self-knowledge, & Tarot

Self-love, Self-knowledge, & Tarot

Over my years of studying the Tarot, incidentally I have been exposed to many of the emergent avenues of thought that have gained some traction in the Western world. Indeed, the beginning of my journey with the Tarot also marked the beginning of studying alternative philosophies and spiritual traditions. I would describe this period as a “scratching the surface” of myself & my perspectives — in…

The Cards Don't Lie -- People Do

The Cards Don’t Lie — People Do

This weekend, I had the pleasure of reading at the long-awaited debut of Tarocco: A Soldier’s Tale. Reading at the show has been a wonderful experience so far, and has allowed me to test out a different way of reading Tarot than I am normally accustomed to. I will be reading there again on both nights this coming weekend, and I took the night off Saturday to watch the show, to which I can say: I…

Lessons from the Tarot: The Insidious "Should"

Lessons from the Tarot: The Insidious “Should”

This article is intended for a general audience, though Tarot readers may especially benefit from it. Today we’ll be looking at the word “should” as it is commonly used and the problems within it.

How is this at all related to Tarot? I would like to make the case that as a Tarot reader & practitioner, there are few words that are as dangerous in their subtlety as this single utterance. Though it…

Parting the Veil, a Look at the Priestess

Parting the Veil, a Look at the Priestess

Woo! Kickin’ it back into gear. Every once in awhile I like to explore a card in some measure of depth. This card seemed fitting to explore as I have been asked twice for a detailed & exhaustive take on this image for the sake of two different Tarot-related art projects.

And so we come around to the lovely (High) Priestess — perhaps one of the most-loved and iconic cards in the whole of the deck,…

The Challenges of Reading Tarot

The Challenges of Reading Tarot

(And how to mitigate them) (And how to mitigate them) There are some challenges that I have seen occur in the process of reading for others in person. Some are simply annoying and come with any service-related profession, some might actually be dangerous in how difficult they may be to track. Here is an abridged list that I’ve come up with, with detailed explanations below: 1. Not being heard. 2.…

Gratitude

On Tuesday 3/17, I posted with some of the adjustments I would be making in the future regarding the Tarotscopes and options for new content that would be going into effect three weeks from now, which I won’t reiterate as you can read about the changes and reasons in the earlier post here.

To be frank, I had some trepidation about making changes like these, and posted to the Tarosophy Tarot…

Tarocco: A Soldier's Tale

Tarocco: A Soldier’s Tale

When I moved to Asheville 2.5 years ago, I sublet the first room I stayed in from the delightful Nat Allister, whom I then lived until about a year ago. When I first met him, he shared with me his visions and plans for a grand circus-meets-theater performance called, “Tarocco,” a show that would follow in the story of the natural sequence of the major arcana, as per The Fool’s Journey. Over the…
