Tarot & More

Hello Magical Beings! This is a short and sweet update episode about two free online events that are coming up - the first one starting tomorrow (5th October 2026), and the second one next month (6-8 November 2026). Tune in!

The first event is The Haunted Library: A Special Collection, hosted by Michele Lefler - a four-day curated learning experience built around one central idea: some wisdom is waiting to be discovered. It explores folklore, intuition, mystery, spiritual practice, history, and the ideas that echo long after the doors close. And my talk, "Seasonal Tarot Spreads for here and now" will be available on Day 2, in The Occult Collection. Participants will be also able to claim a free gift from me: Autumn Tarot Spreads + Journal, which you can normally purchase here.

Join The Haunted Library for free here. (It's my free affiliate link).

The second event is The Tarot & Art Summit, which is hosted by your truly! It's the first event of that calibre that I'm organising entirely on my own, so please join us, the more the merrier! It's the 3-day celebration of magic and artistry that Tarot has to offer. Cosy up and join us for the weekend of talks, readings and community vibes from the comfort of your home. Love Tarot? Pull a seat at this magical table. There's a space with your name on it. The waitlist is in open, and the registrations open on 16th October 2026. Put your name on the list today!

My guest today is Cole Lopez - a healer, herbalist, astrologist and Tarot reader born and raised in New Orleans, USA. Cole is the creator of the Alchemia Auri Tarot, the fine art deck steeped in European tradition. We talked about her work and her journey through the art of healing, and about the process of meticulously crafting a deck inspired by classical artworks.

You can find Cole and all her offerings through her website Enter The Portal. You can also obviously buy Alchemia Auri Tarot there - or in my shop Las Vistas Tarot & More (especially if you are in the UK).

This is another walkcast episode - this time I'm taking you to a forest in Poland where I walk and talk about the newest addition to my Tarot shop: the Earth Steward Tarot. I'm talking about the deck itself, my relationship with it, and the creative work I put into it myself after the creator ghosted me and didn't deliver the guidebook. (There are also cameo appearances of wild strawberries and mushrooms).

It's one of a kind limited edition with just under 25 decks available - and once it's gone, it's gone, so check it out in my shop Las Vistas Tarot & More. This version, with a guidebook written by me, is not available anywhere else.

I also talk about Kickstarter campaigns and crowdfunding in general.

Other decks mentioned in this episode:

The Blue Tarot by Kateryna Presintova

The Blue Oracle Kickstarter campaign (the oracle will be available at my Las Vistas shop later this year).

Today's episode is a bit different because my guest is not a Tarot reader or teacher, or an artist. It's a SEO specialist (which, by the way, stands for Search Engine Optimisation) whose approach helped me immensely with being found online.

So if you first came across my shop Las Vistas Tarot & More (and/or this very podcast!) through a search engine or even an AI search, that's because I implemented a lot of Brittany's advice - and I want the same for you, whether you are a Tarot reader, a witch, an artist, a deck reseller or anyone, really, who wants to be found online by people who've never heard about you before.

Have a listen to my conversation with Brittany Herzberg a.k.a. The SEO Queen, and if you feel like you need more Brittany in your online life, you can find her on her website brittanyherzberg.com, on Threads and Instagram at @brittany_herzberg, as well as on LinkedIn. And of course, listen to her The Basic B Podcast, wherever you listen to podcasts.

Welcome, Magical Being! Today I'm bringing you a conversation with my Tarot teacher, the one and only Lindsay Mack!

Lindsay is the creator of the Soul Tarot approach to reading the Tarot, the creator of the wildly popular Tarot for the Wild Soul podcast and the Soul Tarot school (that includes their wonderful Soul Tarot Membership, which I'm a member of - come and join us!). They are also an author of the book "Tarot for the Wild Soul" and the Soul Tarot deck (illustrated by Chelsea Granger). Both are launching in May 2026.

The book and deck are published by a mass-market publisher, so you can find them in many places around the world, but if you are in the UK, I invite you to my shop Las Vistas Tarot & More.

Tarot for the Wild Soul book at Las Vistas

Soul Tarot deck at Las Vistas

You can also listen to the book as an audiobook (read by Lindsay!). You'll find it wherever you listen to audiobooks but if you haven't got a favourite service yet, I recommend Libro.fm (an affiliate link) - an ethical US-based social purpose corporation and certified B-corp.

In this episode, we talk reading Tarot for here and now, i.e. what the Soul Tarot approach is about; Lindsay's pathway to this work and their recent wobbles whether they should leave the world of professional Tarot work; the process of book and deck creation (and why Lindsay's deck has no people in it) and many other things.

We also mentioned other folks' work and here are the links:

Charlie Claire Burgess "Radical Tarot"

Chase Voorhees' Tarot of the Holy Spectrum deck (you can also buy it from my shop in the UK: the Classic edition here and the Infinity edition here)

Mari in the Sky's The Gentle Tarot (you can also buy it from my shop in the UK here)

Devany Amber Wolfe's upcoming The Fertile Void deck and Illuminated magazine

Welcome, Magical Being! Come in, make yourself comfortable, and enter the beautiful and magical world of Tarot and esoterica with my guest, Andrea Aste - a multidisciplinary artist from Italy who found home in the UK, where he creates weird and wonderful worlds in his Tarot, Oracle and Lenormand decks.

Andrea is also a philosopher and a linguist, so the themes in this conversation run deep! I hope you'll enjoy listening to Andrea as much as I enjoyed talking to him.

Andrea's decks we mentioned in this episode:

The Book of Shadows

Oracolarium

The Ghastly Lenormand From The Grave

The upcoming Tarot of the Crossed Destinies and The Discombobulator: The Esoteric Magazine of the Unseen and the Unexpected.

You can find Andrea on his website, in The Inexistent Library publication on Substack, Facebook, Instagram and Kickstarter.

Welcome to the first walkcast I ever recorded - not from my home studio but directly from a forest. And there was a good reason for it: in this episode I'm talking about Forest Meditations deck which supports the practice of shinrin-yoku (forest bathing).

It's a practical review of this beautiful and supportive deck created by Joanna Węgłowska and Przemek Węgłowski, forest bathing guides from Poland, and illustrated by Aleksandra Świder. I'm taking you on a walk where I pull two cards from the deck and talk you through the mindful exercises. There is also an ongoing soundtrack of singing birds and a cameo appearance of my dog, Sophie, so it's a very special episode :)

(Also, I checked... The bird that is called sójka in Polish is English jay.)

If you are in the UK and anywhere in the world apart from the EU, you can buy the English version of the deck from my shop, Las Vistas Tarot & More.

If you are in any EU country, the most cost-effective way is to buy it directly from Joanna and Przemek on their website Forest Power Cards. (They have English, German, Spanish and Polish versions).

Welcome to the first Card Audio Deep Dive - with not-so-obvious choice of 4 of Pentacles! The card commonly seen as the sign of greed, a fear of losing, and being stubborn, can also be seen through the lens of self-care and physical and emotional boundaries.

Let's have a look at 22 different depictions of the 4 of Pentacles, as designed by various artists and illustrators. (To see the actual pictures, visit this post on my blog.)

Meet Mariza Ryce Aparicio-Tovar, better known in the online and Tarot world as Mari in the Sky, the author of the beloved Gentle Tarot and its expanding universe.

We are talking about everything Gentle Tarot: how it started with Mari’s love of art and Alaskan nature, as well as Mexican indigenous cultures, and her quest to find an inclusive, non-patriarchal, and non-capitalist Tarot deck; how the isolated creative practice turned into a community collaboration; and why being an independent Jack-of-all-trades may be the only way to live sustainably as an artist nowadays.

Grab a cup of your favourite tea and keep listening! (Blog post coming soon!)

Mari's decks we talked about:

What's coming next?

Should your first deck be the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith (RWS) deck?

Do you need to choose a deck that comes with a guidebook?

What books should you read if you're looking for a more comprehensive understanding of the Tarot?

Do you need to follow one teacher or "school" of Tarot?

What's the most important when choosing your first Tarot deck?

How to choose a Tarot deck if you're on a budget?
