This is the first episode in a special, Substack-only podcast series diving into the Major Arcana of the tarot, sharing the insights that went into the creation of our TOTEM Tarot Deck as we near the last few available copies of our self-published labor of love. This special podcast series was prompted by a note from *new* podcast guest and pagan priest Clay Martin— author of the Barbarian Spirit and Wrath of the Wendigo— who reached out about this TOTEM Tarot card (Anubis) in particular after our recent chat. His episode of The Skeptical Shaman will land early next year, but keep an eye out for a potential Substack live as we head into the pagan holiday high season;)
And please share this series far and wide with friends that you think would enjoy or benefit from our uniquely shamanic perspective on all things tarot in a world of AI psychic slop and TikTok "card readers”! Your sharing, liking, subscribing and supporting doesn’t just help TOTEM keep on keeping on, but it also helps us challenge the lowest common denominator garbage peddlers from dominating the conversation— and the market— in the Business of Woo.
In other words: you’ll be doing a good deed.
The TOTEM Tarot Deckand the TOTEM Flower Essence Deck, pictured above, can be purchased on Etsy!The TOTEM Flower Essence Deck is also still in stock and available on Amazon HERE.
We have, somehow, already unpacked and merchandised our thousands of TOTEM Flower Essence bottles, and have reactivated our Etsy shop and our 60% off sale.
Also: after our own death/ rebirth experience, we are once again set up to offer 1:1 client-facing psychic sessions, so please head over to our website’s booking page HERE to learn more or book a time to connect face-to-face. It’s the most magical, most Woo time of the year, so take advantage of the thinning of the veil during our busy season— and before we head out for holiday break!
Our latest Full Moon Deep Dive, exploring the energy of the upcoming Taurus Full Moon, is already up HERE.
And don’t forget: a new episode of The Skeptical Shaman has hit this past weekend, featuring Theresa Reed | The Tarot Lady exploring the *new* para-social minefield in the Business of Woo. This episode is a must-listen for anyone forced into the role of public-facing content creator as a small business owner!
