TXT us your feedback!! <3 your fayce!This week, we’re taking a journey through time and trust me, it’s wilder than any Halloween story you’ve heard.Tarot didn’t begin in the dark corners of an occult bookstore or a dusty Romani caravan (yep, we’re busting that myth). It started in Renaissance Italy as a card game for nobles who probably had more coin than conscience. So how did those gilded game cards become the magical, psychological, and spiritual tool we use today?We’ll trace the transformation from the Visconti-Sforza decks and the Tarot de Marseille to Court de Gébelin’s “Book of Thoth” fantasy, through Eliphas Levi, the Golden Dawn, Pamela Colman Smith’s revolutionary artwork, and into modern tarot as a tool for reflection, ritual, and healing.I’m breaking down the history, the myths, and the moments where humanity turned art and archetype into alchemy. Whether you’re witchy, clinical, skeptical, or just tarot-curious, this episode reminds you that the magic isn’t in the cards — it’s in you.Listen if you want to learn:•The real, documented origins of tarot in Renaissance Italy•How myths of Egypt and “fortune-telling gypsies” shaped the story•Why the Golden Dawn and Pamela Colman Smith matter more than you think•How tarot evolved into a spiritual mirror for modern witches, pagans, and even therapistsIf you love Halloween, history, and a little magical realism with your caffeine, this one’s for you.Share this episode with your favorite tarot friend, your skeptical coworker, or anyone who loves a good story grounded in truth and mystery.And if you have thoughts, feedback, or a favorite tarot myth I missed, use the feedback link at the top of the show notes or email me directly.
