When The Lovers card shows up in a reading, it’s super exciting-  we see a couple made of masculine and feminine energy, balance, acceptance, paradise, and souls made for each other. But all of this is just breadcrumbs leading down the false path of believing someone else could actually complete you. Or some thing... Or some where... Look closely, The Lovers is a mirror image of The Devil… if that mirror reflected back some sort of hell scape version of paradise. In this episode we'll look at both.

We'll be looking at The Star card, which is generally about grief. So paired with our brave mascot the three of swords card - a calling towards the heart, we have an appropriate combo of answering to your own grief. What does this mean? Grief isn’t something that just happens to us, it’s something we have to actively engage with. A lot of people ask me in readings “how do I get over” something or how “do I let go”. What they are asking is “how do I grieve a loss?”. I wish I could go back in time and just show them the star card. We'll also be looking at the Moon card. Discussing rage, that tim ..read more

Hi again! This is the first episode of Season two of La Luna Tarot’s podcast. I'll be talking about spiritual guides and guardians... like Faeries and Angels... and the devil... Today’s card is the two of Pentacles (and a few others) as they relate to the three of swords, which is our mascot for this season. In my introduction to this season I talk about how the three of swords is a calling towards the heart when it is wounded. So we’re gonna get a little more into that.  Just a heads up, you can see all of the cards I’m talking about on my Instagram @La_Luna_Tarot and facebook feeds. P ..read more

Hello! Welcome to Season two of La Luna Tarot’s podcast. This season I’ve got a little something different for you.  I won’t be giving the same collective readings I did last time. Because tarot is more than interpretation of the cards, it’s an experience. For me that means a series of connections. I hope to give you a better taste of that this season.  Don't forget to visit me on the socials. You can see all of the cards I’m talking about on my IG @La_Luna_Tarot and FB @La Luna Tarot feeds. Please visit and say hi ..read more

Since it’s Halloween, I thought I'd use the scariest suite of the tarot… The Swords! And do a mini collective reading for this episode! I've pulled three cards at random with a question in mind - “How can we face the ghosts that frightens us?”. If you listened to season one of this podcast I ONLY did collective readings. So you might remember that even though I’ll be interpreting the cards, you can take what works for you and leave the rest. Also, this reading is for anyone that encounters it at any time.  Sources Cited: My I.Q. by Ani Defranco Jose Guadalupe Posada 1852-1913 Santa Muert ..read more

How do you know if you had a good reading? A good reading should be like a good meal. In this episode I will explore some connections between food and tarot. As well as what it's like to be sitting on my side of the table and what an unfortunate tarot reading I received taught me. Plus, a lovely recording of one of my favorite boleros to bookend this episode.   Special thanks to my lovely friend Megan for inspiring this episode! Thanks to my dad Samuel for providing a musical soundtrack to this episode! References Cited: Hero With a thousand faces by Joseph Campbell  Queer Eye ..read more

4 of Swords is the card immediately after our mascot three of swords, so getting in touch with all that pain obviously warrants some rest. But we don’t have to be in a state of absolute pain and suffering to deserve rest.  It’s natural to rest, and in the context of this card, I’d even go as far as to say rest is neither good nor bad. Swords represent our mind. This card explores different reasons we may need to lay ideas goals and plans to rest... and why that's not always the easiest thing to do.
