Advertise on podcast: Omg Tarot! A Podcast About Reading Tarot Cards

You know the basics of reading a natal chart. You've got planets, the planets are in signs, and the signs rule houses. Great. And you probably know the relationships between the planets are important...but if you aren't super confident about interpreting these in your chart, this episode is for you. Degrees and aspects are components of astrology that often seem more complicated than they really are. They're also key to taking your astrological understanding to the next level, once you've got a solid grasp on where your planets are and what those placements mean for you.

In our follow-up to the last episode, we're exploring tarot and spirituality. On the surface, the answer might seem like a "well, duh, of course tarot is spiritual." But there are a lot of non-spiritual ways to work with the deck...and are the cards themselves, without human interaction, spiritual? What does spiritual even mean? Here's my take on these questions, plus some fun tarot history. Music credit: Fiftysounds.com

When you pull tarot cards, are you doing something creative? I think so. In this episode, we get into how tarot and really, all forms of divination, are inherently creative acts.

How is the Judgment card different from the Justice card? What about Temperance versus The Star? In your tarot deck, there are a lot of cards that have similar, yet distinct, themes. Sometimes, it can be easy to get these cards confused...or to know the difference, but have a hard time articulating it. This episode is all about those cards that have similar narratives, but tell unique stories. Music credit: Fiftysounds.com

Every tarot card reader is unique. We've all got our own special combo of deck preference, relationship with the cards, philosophy, and delivery style. How do these come together in your unique reader mosaic? Maybe you haven't thought about this question much. But it's an important question to answer because the better you know yourself, the better you are as a reader. That's what this episode is all about.

In this episode, we're diving back into the minor arcana to take a look at a handful of cards that feel like "mini" versions of major arcana cards. You've probably heard the 2 of Cups called the "mini Lovers" before, but what about other "mini" cards in your tarot deck? We also drop the minor arcana into real-life situations, because really, that's what tarot is for. It helps us navigate our lives. And there's some ASMR 🤪

What does a 1st house year really look like? Or a 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 12th house year? It's great to have the basics, but some things are best understood through concrete examples.

With each, we take a close look at the themes at play and how these themes played out in listeners' lives. Music credit: Fiftysounds.com
