The Tarot Diagnosis

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis podcast, we are back with a topic that every single person can relate to in one way or another: jealousy. We know that this is a word that means different things to different people, and it’s a word we all use sometimes interchangeably with the words envy and resentment. We talk about all of that, and we gotta say, it gets juicy. . .

Of course, we run though so many cards as we explore this world of jealousy in all of it’s forms - including some surprising ones (hey Three of Cups, what are you doing here?).

If you listen to the podcast regularly, you know that our conversations are totally unscripted and can go in any direction. We never know where we will head, and usually end up thinking about a million other things we could have talked about after we’re done.

However, This week, it was our beloved sound engineer who picked up on something both of us missed. Apparently, we talked about sevens… a lot. And isn’t that exactly right? In numerology seven is seen as a highly spiritual number - and one that is associated with gaining wisdom and knowledge. What greater challenge can we face in seeking knowledge than in battling with jealousy?

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis, we decided to take on a totally hackneyed and cliché topic and see if we could "Hanged Man" it to give us a totally different perspective.

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis we decide to tackle the uncomfortable place of feeling disappointed. We begin the episode by recognizing that this is a broad topic that could go in lots of diffident directions - which really is what we love about our podcast: we never know what’s going to come up.

And, what came up were a ton of super heavy hitting Major Arcana cards with some interpretations that even surprised both of us.

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis, we last minute decided to change the topic to one we have been seeing a lot of in our practices (and, maybe a little in our own lives, too): Burn Out.

The idea of being burnt out is one that we throw around a lot in causal conversation, probably because so many of us have a tendency to have too many things going on. But there is a difference between stress, fatigue, burn out and depression - and, true to form, we get into all those! We define the differences and more importantly, talk about what very real steps we can all take in our own lives to better manage stress and burn out.

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis, we tackle a term that gets thrown around a lot, but rarely is discussed at length - the inner child.

In classic TTD style, Shannon and Luna give all the nerdy background on this concept and give real examples of how the inner child can play out in a therapy session. We also blend in the cards we pulled and illustrate how inner child work can be done through an independent, personal tarot practice. From Jung’s concept of Personality A and Personality B, to the more modern theory of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (or CBT), and all kinds of nerdy neurobiology thrown in, we pull card from The Somnia Tarot and Tarot of the Abyss in order to cover it all.

Queen of Cups, The Star, Nine of Wands, Strength and The Sun all play a role in our conversation as well as our suggestions about what practice you can try at home to engage with your own inner child healing.

The week on The Tarot Diagnosis we take on the big, bad, ugly topic of loneliness. Truth, even though it’s a heavy topic, we actually had a ton of fun with this one (weird, right?).

If you’ve been feeling lonely, or are worried about being alone in the future, or even know someone who is lonely and want to help them - this is an episode not to be missed!  At long last, Shannon revealed her top three proven methods to meet new people (something Luna has been waiting for since the podcast began) and then she has a run of pulling cards that’s pretty unbelievable (can you say “all of the pentacles?’’).

And Luna keeps pulling the same card, really illustrating a point about what we can do about our own loneliness.

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis podcast, we tread into both the practical and philosophical around the concept of time. Time is something we all have - some of us feel like we have too much, some of us feel like we don’t have enough, and some of us prefer not to think about it all.

Join us as we pull cards and talk about our collective relationship with time (including some nerdy stuff about how different brains work). From Nine of Swords to King of Swords, and ADHD, to revenge sleep procrastination - we really sink our teeth into how we can stop fighting against time and how to get it work more for us.

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis, we tread *semi* carefully into the murky waters of how to find a good helper, or support person, in your life. So much of our work on this podcast is about helping people empower themselves, but we know that sometime that’s just not enough and it’s time to seek outside help. The problem is, how do you know who you can trust?

Luna and and Shannon speak some hard truths on this one, and offer advice on how to find the right person for you… and how to know when to run far away. We go though all the red flags - and the green ones - to help you make the right choice.

Seven of Wands, Eight of Swords, Two of Cups, Two of Swords, and of course, The Hierophant all work their way into the conversation, along with an honest look at the problem with the current trend of making shadow work too sexy.

Also worth noting - at the end of the episode we highlight a recent IG live from Malakhim_Tarot called “False Prophets” that is very much worth checking out. If you don’t already follow Nick, it’s worth doing.
