Episode 35: SassafrasCast Teaches Tarot: The Suit of Pentacles

 

Part two of my SassafrasCast Teaches Tarot series - focusing on the suit of pentacles. For beginners - this is a series that will get you up to speed with the full deck and get comfortable doing readings. For those of you who are already readers - this is going to be a nuanced discussion that goes beyond your typical "tarot 101" course and I hope you will add your thoughts and ideas to the conversation!

 

In this second episode of the series we are covering the suit of Pentacles - which represents the element of earth. We journey through the suit and talk about each card, including a discussion of the court cards and options for bailing on some of the outdated gender norms that they can be associated with.

 

$5 and up patrons can find a bonus episode in the patreon with a great go to major-arcana-only reading, plus some bonus tips on a reading to do when you're stuck and can't understand a card.

 

This episode was recorded live with a (virtual) studio audience - thanks for tuning in, Sassafras Patrons! Sign up and claim this and other perks at patreon.com/sassafrastarot.
