In this episode Ellie explains how The Chariot card draws from each of its predecessors to provide insight into how to put previous learning into practice, to achieve positive outcomes.

Today's episode is about knowing another, whether it be in the intimate sense, or as a friend and work partner. But there are other more complex aspects of The Lovers card in the Rider Waite deck, which might explain why love and relationships are sometimes confusing aspects of life...

In this episode we discuss how tarot takes us beyond the material world by providing a brief glimpse into the concept of there also being something other than what we can prove, and our need to organise our beliefs into a structure that helps us define and set boundaries around those beliefs.

In today's episode we talk about the contrast between The Emperor and his complementary partner in the Major Arcana suite. Ellie provides a range of basic definitions and an explanation of the key symbolism in The Emperor card. Also, the card's significance in readings and its hierarchal place in the deck.

In today's episode we talk about the abundance of The Empress, and how she perfectly complements another Major Arcana card. Subtle encouragement of dealing with all people as equal are also appearing by this time, and Ellie shows examples of how the Rider Waite tackles the topic of diversity.

In this episode, Ellie talks about how The High Priestess demonstrates the single creator theory and how its symbolised within the Rider Waite deck of tarot cards. The relationship between The High Priestess and her complementary Major Arcana card is also discussed.

In this episode of the Meat and Potatoes Tarot podcast, Ellie takes us through the basic definitions and interpretive symbols of The Magician card and links The Magician to other cards in ways that begin to demonstrate the continuity of the Rider Waite imagery.

In episode 2 we take a look at the relevance of the Major Arcana and how it links to the Universal Human Experience. We also begin to study the first of the Major Arcana cards - The Fool card. 

After a brief introduction, Ellie takes us through each stop in the Fool's Journey through tarot's Major Arcana suite of cards. Every card includes an important lesson, and getting to understand the significance of the Fool's Journey is an easy way to create a solid foundation of knowledge that will help as we learn more about each card. 

Meat and Potatoes Tarot is about keeping it simple.
