Episode 131: You Have Elvira’s Desk?!? with Charles Harrington
This week, your Cardslingers get the opportunity to chat with author and friend Charles Harrington. Charles Harrington has been reading, teaching, and loving tarot for more than 25 years. He has written several deck guidebooks and given keynotes and workshops at conferences, hosted podcasts, and led meetups in the San Francisco Bay Area. He loves to find new and strange ways to use the cards in pursuit of wisdom, fun, and the occasional free cocktail. He is the author of Tarot and Oracle Card Readings for Dummies, Tarot of the Vampires, the Murder of Crows Tarot, the Odyssey Oracle, as well as the forthcoming Llewellyn Tarot Calendar for 2026.
Charles popped on the YouTube channel to chat with us about his new book, Tarot and Oracle Card Reading for Dummies, which was released this year by the Wiley brand. We gush over his book, the process of writing, card reading in general, and get a glimpse of the desk he purchased from Elvira.
Melissa adjusted her rates to support those who are not at the baseline. So, visit her website and sign up for a reading now. https://melissacynova.com/services/
