Manage episode 516262564 series 3693954
MUST-HEAR episode where I pull out as much knowledge and insight as possible from historian, author, and tarot-deck creator Travis McHenry.
Tap in as we talk about his new book (and a bit more) "An Occult Guide to" the Tarot from Rockpool Publishing.
Here are some of the themes we explore:
– The difference between occult tarot and other forms
– The secrecy around tarot and how it historically ensured that only the initiated received certain information - so what makes an initiate today?
– How the real and spiritual origins of tarot cards have been obscured
– The Tree of Life
– How to ask a good question for the tarot cards
– Female empowerment in the cards
– The tarot is not from Egypt—however, there are Egyptian elements
– The signature of Saturn in Virgo
– What the Sola Busca Tarot is and why it remains so mysterious
– A few stress-questions at the end about demons
thank you for being with us!!
