They will be discussed as tools to reengage alternative epistemologies assaulted by colonial imperialism. The tarot is an affective archive that, when supplanted with a liberatory language and framework, may challenge and delegitimize colonial structures within and without.

Join in me in such a wayward walk by signing up TENz and transform your tarot by seeing it as a codex for the horoscope informed by critical theorists such as Hartman. We begin Aries season 🗡️

For Hartman, waywardness is a mode of escape, an activity by which the Black body slips out of the trap of liberal personhood and falls into a wild and extravagant relation to beauty and freedom so clearly the 7 of swords right ?

Hartman defines ‘waywardness’ as “the practice of the social otherwise, the insurgent ground that enabled new possibilities and new vocabularies…it is a queer resource of black survival. It is a beautiful experiment in how to live.”

I coin this decan the Wayward decan. Saidiya Hartman has defined ‘waywardness’ as a form both of early 20th century criminality and of wild mobility outside of liberal structures of rule.

The decans, the cards become a codex for a critical apparatus in my work. They connect the divine to the Decolonial struggle of our times and illuminate a red path for us to continue walking down. TENZ starts Aries season

This decan is in my 9th house, of spirituality, teaching and astrology. And as is the natal promise I offer TENZ as study in the ancient astrology of decans but push it further.

Regularly and ritually burn your old sh*t. Cleanse yourself from being possessed by your possessions. Be brave and summon the spirit associated with the decan to buck with tradition and create something new, somewhere old, and the young will bless the old.

This decan calls us to consider what values are a pillar and which beliefs make the body a prison. It calls for dispossession as a truly radical anti capitalist act.
