The Hermit’s Lamp Podcast - A place for witches, hermits, mystics, healers, and seekers

This is the second interview in a series about changing, getting stuck and finding the life you want.

In this installment I talk with Rachel Pollack, creator of the The Shinning Tribe tarot, author, and teacher. We talked about change and the impact readings have on people from our experience and in light of the Oedipus myth. The interview weaves through a range of topics around helping people get the most out of their readings and covers:

• Querent’s expectations

• How people get stuck by their internal structures

• What is cheating when it comes to reading tarot

If you don’t know what cold reading is you can read about on Mary K. Greer’s great series of posts on the subject starting here. I will be interviewing Mary Greer in an upcoming installment of this series.

Welcome to the first interview in the series.

Back in the early days of the year I found myself thinking a lot about both my successes and not successes and those of the people who worked with me. I started to wonder why it is that some people change easily and others seem to not change at all. Why at times it is harder or easier for me to change. It seems to me that finding the answer to that question would make me a better reader and a better person. I decided to talk to other readers about the subject and share those interviews here.

I got together via the wonders of the web with Nancy Antenucci and talked for about an hour about changing, getting stuck and childbirth as a metaphoric answer to the question of change. If you don’t know who Nancy is you can check out her bio below.Who is Nancy Antenucci?
