Omg Tarot! A Podcast About Reading Tarot Cards

Yes, it's a long title, but that's because there's a ton of amazing insights in this episode! I sat down with Lily Martin, a psychic medium, tarot card reader, and salt reader to discuss our wide range of experiences with tarot, the clairs (clairvoyance, claircognizance, clairaudience, etc), and working with people who come to us seeking insight and answers.

Get an insider's look at life as the intuitive connecting the living and the dead. You might find yourself nodding along, recognizing the experiences Lily discusses. And yes, you read that right earlier...Lily does salt readings. Listen and learn more about this unique form of divination (and how you can find the forms that resonate best with you).

In your tarot deck, the backgrounds matter. Where are the figures? How are they engaging with their environments?

...Are they on stage, performing a play?

There's some compelling evidence to support that last point, at least for certain cards. But with every card in the deck, you're looking at a full picture with a horizon line, details, a foreground and a background, and the entire story these details come together to tell. How closely are you reading these parts of the deck?

Pathworking is a fantastic tool for visualizing our world and the symbols you encounter within it. As you might imagine, it's also a powerful way to explore your tarot deck.

In this episode, I sit down with Niko Contouris, tarot reader, pathworker, author and tour guide, to chat about his experiences with exploring the tarot this way. We also get into the Thoth tarot a bit, since I've just started working with this deck and it's Niko's daily driver. If you're considering picking up the Thoth tarot, be prepared to think differently about the cards! I know it's changed how I read, and I'm not the only reader who's experienced this.

In my experience, tarot is best when it's enjoyed with friends. Today's guest, tarot reader and teacher Stefanie Wittmaak, has had the same experience...and as a fellow Scorpio Rising, an eerily similar tarot journey 😲

Your forecast for this week, grouped by modality. Listen for your Sun, Moon, and Rising.

When you've been reading tarot as long as I have, you tend to notice things. Patterns emerge. You understand people differently. Here are a few of the observations I've made over the years.

Hey all, I know it's been a few weeks since one of these made it over to Spotify...between tech stuff and personal stuff, it's been a rough couple weeks at House Omg.

But in case you're looking for your tarot forecast and you don't see it posted to Spotify, it's always on Instagram. Join me live or watch it as a reel after the fact; it's always up on Monday.

And a new regular episode will be up this Thurs :)

What are your big three...in cheeses?

I'm a Baby Swiss Sun, an Espresso Cheese Moon, and a Pecorino Romano Rising.

Yep. In her book, Cheese Astrology: A Weekly Guide, author Tabitha Dial walks you through each decan of the zodiac in the most delicious way possible. And in this episode, we're cutting up the cosmic charcuterie and exploring how this book came to be.

A day late, sorry about that! I recorded July 13, and the forecast is good all week.

Sometimes, Saturn smacks ya. Especially if you're not suspecting it. But think of Saturn's smacks like birthday whacks. They're the lessons life throws your way to stretch you, test you, and build you into a more nuanced version of yourself.

That's what this episode is all about. Listen for an explanation of Saturn's energy, what it means for a planet to be in domicile vs. detriment vs. exaltation vs. fall, how Saturn tends to express itself in various signs, and stories from listeners that illustrate their experiences with their Saturn Returns.
