Mabon 2024: Making Tarot Mean More with Lane Smith and Maria Minnis
Listen now
Description
The Missing Witches podcast is back from our much needed hiatus to celebrate the Fall Equinox - a time when light and dark are in balance. Our guests Maria Minnis author of Tarot for the Hard Work, and Lane Smith author of 78 Acts of Liberation help us, like the light of the sun and the darkness of night, to find a balance between our internal and external worlds, using Tarot as a tool for political and personal liberation. The personal is political AND the political is personal. Together we complicate the cards and expand on the meaning of Tarot; we discuss Freeing Minds, Freeing Bodies, community, activism, the anxiety of 'getting it right' and the scared responsibility of being part of an interconnected web. As we fall toward 2025, we also take some time to discuss next year's Tarot card: The Hermit!
