MENGENAI EPISOD INI
This month author and professional tarot reader Cassandra Snow joins me to discuss Rachel Pollack's classic Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom. While it's been called the tarot bible, it does have some detractors. Cassandra and I discuss the impact the book and Pollack has had on tarot reading and practice—both for Cassandra and in general, the breadth of knowledge Pollack brings to the text, and her brilliance as a writer. We also address a few of those criticisms.
You can pick up a copy of Tarot in Other Words, a book of essays by queer tarot readers, authors and deck creators edited by Cassandra, wherever you buy books. You can learn more about Cassandra's other work, book a tarot reading, and get their social media details from their website.
Next month I'll be joined by author and editor Judika Illes to discuss the Soviet Era samizdat classic The Master and the Margarita by Mikhail Bulgacov. Originally published as a complete book in Paris in 1967 after being passed around as an underground manuscript for nearly 30 years, the book has been translated into multiple languages. If you are reading along, it is available in English as a paperback and in digital and audiobook formats. My library had all three available.
