On this special episode of CARD TALK, we're talking about five books that are devoted to tarot not just as a personal practice, but also as a tool for collective liberation.

Check out these tarot books & their talented authors:
Red Tarot // Christopher Marmolejo
Radical Tarot // Charlie Claire Burgess
Tarot for the Hard Work // Maria Minnis
Queering the Tarot // Cassandra Snow
And available now: 78 Acts of Liberation // Lane Smith

I also highly recommend the work of so many other liberation-oriented tarot teachers and creators including Rashunda Tramble, Cyrée Jarelle Johnson, Jezmina Von Thiele, Sara Calvarese, Amanda Yates Garcia, Althea Sebastiani, Corinna Rosella, Nyasha Williams, Juliet Diaz, Cristy C. Road, Cedar McCloud, Siri Plouff, Beth Maiden, Asali Earthwork, Kelly-Ann Maddox, Bee Scolnick, Michelle Tea, Mary K. Greer, Rachel Pollack, and so many others. This is in no way an exhaustive list, but I hope it will get you started.

Decolonizing your tarot practice is essential work, but if it also brings up big feelings or leaves you craving support, check out my new tarot journaling resources Drink Some Water and Queens of Spirit.
