Alchemy in the Thoth Tarot “Art” Card
This is an adaptation of an article I wrote quite a few years ago while in the midst of my studies of alchemy in the Crowley-Harris Thoth deck. Aleister Crowley wrote little directly about alchemy, but his Thoth deck is full of alchemical symbolism. Alchemy is the transformation of base matter into gold, whether physically in the outer world or psychically in the inner.

Tarot Compendium: What They Think and Feel About You

Transparent Tarot Readings

What is a “transparent reading style” in tarot? I use this term to describe one element of what I do in a reading. First, it is a continuum and not an absolute. Essentially, it is including acknowledgement of where/how I’m getting information and meaning from the cards…
Transparent Tarot Readings
What is a “transparent reading style” in tarot? I use this term to describe one element of what I do in a reading. First, it is a continuum and not an absolute. Essentially, it is including acknowledgement of where/how I’m getting information and meaning from the cards and from my interaction with the querent. You might say it is anti-magic, except that I’m really all about magic.

Last night’s complex dream & AI interp: “The transformation from tragedy to hope parallels humanity’s capacity to change its trajectory. Just as the author rewrites his novel, it suggests that collective despair can be countered by rewriting our shared story with hope, creativity, and resilience.”

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all.

Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.
