For April’s Tarot Offering: Social Alienation and Rejection, I’ve dug into the iconic La Llorona myth and peered through the window of a few more stories. I'm Rachel, a writer, tarot reader, and history lover. Every month I pull some tarot cards and write and record an offering for the collective. I explore inextinguishable themes in our collective history, through the stories in us that will never die. Inner Demons is an eighteen-part series that explores psychological schemas in literature, film, folklore, and mythology. Listen if you're into demons that eat babies, violent women that can’t stop crying, and more lovely topics. https://okna.squarespace.com

Thank you @rafeldelelande for painting something so sad and rad for this month’s cover art!!!

Abandonment and Instability, is the first piece of an 18-episode series, exploring early maladaptive psychological schemas. Every month, with the tarot cards, we'll be weaving in and out of film, literature, mythic legends, and a few gnarled-contorted folktales that have seeped into our psychology, our physiology, over deep time, through generations of oral and written submission.
