Do you have judgments about Tarot?

Perhaps you feel that it’s more of a game, or maybe even that there’s something “bad” about it. The associations we might have with Tarot often come from culture, a culture which has both appropriated and suppressed indigenous ways of knowing and accessing our inner wisdom. 

In episode 5 of I’m Not Crazy, I’m Clairvoyant we dive into why Tarot is such an important practice, why we need to decolonize Tarot, and how it can be used as a powerful spiritual practice that builds our intuition, highlighting in particular:

• How Tarot is a symbolic map of consciousness that reveals information to us through symbolism, which is our first language
• Tarot is an ancient divination system that we have inherited from our ancestors
• How until very recently American Tarot decks were exclusively white-centric, and which ones to get to decolonize your Tarot
• Tarot gives us access to our inner knowing and can be seen as a daily initiation practice
• How to use Tarot to foster the development of our intuitive abilities

“Before there were words before we could understand putting-this-letter-with-this-one, we understood symbols. It activates our most primitive language, which is the language of symbols; the language of our soul. Sure, we can talk about Tarot for fortune-telling, but Tarot also contains and expresses so much of what is in our consciousness.”
