This week on⁠ The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast⁠⁠, Theresa Reed (aka @thetarotlady) joins me to discuss life’s most difficult moments and her new latest book “The Cards You’re Dealt - How To Deal When Life Gets Real.” Our conversation explores grief, loss, tragedy, and the role tarot can play in helping us to navigate life's difficulties.  Theresa and I touch on societal pressures, why we often neglect certain types of grief beyond death, and we challenge toxic positivity and our societal discomfort with acknowledging mortality. We spend some time discussing the importance of breaking the silence around unrecognized grief and the significance of creating space for open conversations. We open the episode with the Seven of Swords and Two of Wands, and Theresa makes a powerful connection between our two cards. Theresa's book, "The Cards You're Dealt," is praised for its acknowledgment of various forms of grief experienced in everyday life, not just related to death. It emphasizes the need for curiosity about our emotions and internal worlds, allowing individuals to navigate unexpected waves of grief more effectively - all with the help of tarot.
