10 Sep 2024 | BTP218: Harness the Full Moon's Energy for Effortless Manifestation with This Tarot Spread | 00:09:14 | |
If you've ever experienced burnout… Or feel like you're constantly striving because you think you have to hustle to achieve your goals… I have some good news! There’s a better way. You don’t have to push hard and force your way to success, despite what society tells us. Because when we do this, we feel calmer, more balanced, and have more energy. And what do all of these cycles have in common? They have periods of GROWTH followed by REST. As humans, we are not immune to these cycles (as much as we hate to admit it!). So the natural cycles encourage us not only to take action… but also to take intentional rest so we can bring our goals to life in a more sustainable way. For years, I’ve been manifesting with the guidance of the lunar cycles. And I love this practice so much that I’ve created a Tarot spread around manifesting with the moon! Tune in for:

They say that the way to get powerful answers is to ask powerful questions. And that's certainly true of the Tarot. You see, asking the right questions in your Tarot readings is absolutely critical to discovering the right answers – answers that help you shape your future and manifest your goals and dreams. When we ask meaningful questions, we get meaningful answers. And similarly, when we ask trashy questions, we get trashy answers. So how do we ask good questions?

When you're learning to read Tarot, there is so much different information and knowledge to take. You've got to learn the Tarot card meanings, how to do a reading, how to deal with difficult clients, how to interpret the numbers, how to make connections in the cards, and so on.

24 Jul 2017 | BTP84: Coming 'Home' to Ourselves: Reconnecting with Our Inner Wisdom | 00:14:20 | |
This podcast episode is different from all the others I’ve done. Instead of having a distinct structure, I wanted to get real with you. I wanted to get into a space where I could share some of the thoughts that are prevalent for me right now. This podcast is about coming ‘home’ to ourselves using the Tarot and reconnecting to our inner wisdom. You see, before religions were invented, we HAD to rely on our own innate wisdom to guide us through life. But now, instead of learning how to trust ourselves, we’ve put so much of our trust into other people—our experts, our authorities, our religious figures, and so on. And we can certainly see this in the Tarot space. We see folks going to Tarot readers and expecting to get all the answers or a silver bullet to solve their problems. What I want is to bring that trust back into ourselves, reclaiming our own inner wisdom, and knowing that we have all the answers within us. And I think Tarot can certainly guide us in that way. So join me in this extra special podcast episode, where I talk about this concept of coming ‘home’ to ourselves and how we can use Tarot and our own inner wisdoms to guide us in life. | |||
10 Jul 2017 | BTP82: Modern Tarot with Michelle Tea | 00:29:36 | |
Today, we’re speaking with Michelle Tea, author of the book Modern Tarot, Connecting with Your Higher Self through the Wisdom of the Cards. (Published by Harper-Collins). With her unique insight, inviting pop sensibility, and wicked humor, Modern Tarot is a fascinating journey through the cards that teaches how to use this tradition to connect with our higher selves. Michelle and I share the same desire to bring a modern approach to Tarot. Whether you’re a committed seeker or a digital-age skeptic—or perhaps a little of both—Tea’s essential guide opens the power of tarot to you. Modern Tarot doesn’t require you to believe in the supernatural or narrowly focus on the tarot as a divination tool. Tea instead provides incisive descriptions of each of the 78 cards in the tarot system—each illustrated in the charmingly offbeat style of cartoonist Amanda Verwey—and introduces specially designed card-based rituals that can be used with any deck to guide you on a path toward radical growth and self-improvement.

I am so excited today to be talking with Raven Mardirosian. Raven dreamed of being a missionary, a vet, or an English teacher, and becoming a professional Tarot reader never crossed her mind.

Since become a professional Tarot reader, and she’s authored thirteen books, and many of them include Tarot. She currently offers her gifts through Tarot and Reiki sessions, consulting, and classes on her website at ShivayaWellness.com. I think so many of us can relate to being reluctant Tarot readers. And if you’ve ever had that question on your mind about whether Tarot and Christianity can come together, or if they are really poles apart, Raven has certainly gone through that experience firsthand, so you’ll love to hear her perspective on how those two relate.

23 Jan 2017 | BTP58: The Benefits of Operating Your Tarot Business Online | 00:26:33 | |
For me, having an online Tarot business is so incredibly important and enabling. I started in the late 1990’s with a free website on Yahoo. Now, we’re reaching three and a half million people a year. That just blows my mind. Because of this online business, my family has been able to travel to Spain and different parts of the world while we’ve also run the business. Really it’s all been possible because Biddy Tarot is an online business. Had I only focused locally, I wouldn’t have been able to do what I’ve done in these last few years. Today I want to open up your mind to the possibilities of an online business, especially as a Tarot reader.

When I first started to read Tarot, I was just a fresh-faced 18 year old. By my early 20s, I was ready to start reading for other people but there was just one problem.

Ever felt like your Tarot cards hold a deeper message for you, but you’re not quite getting it? The truth is, you’re missing a magical ingredient - intuition! In the realm of Tarot, intuition is like the guiding North Star, illuminating the path that leads to profound insights and revelations. It's the language of the soul, the unspoken connection between you and the cards that transcends traditional meanings. Without it, your Tarot readings are boring and robotic. But WITH it, your Tarot readings truly come alive and you receive all the answers you need! | |||

Once she started actually working with the cards, she realized they could be an important ally for personal growth and mental health. Now, Monica reads Tarot for hundreds of people to help them overcome their own struggles––and is even working with her best friend on a podcast about Tarot and mental health.

Now, I am a big fan of modern-looking Tarot decks. I believe that modern decks created by independent artists help bring new people to Tarot – and I’m all about bringing Tarot into the mainstream. Lauren recently sent me both the Connected & Free oracle deck and the Lumina Tarot. The Connected & Free deck is designed to support you in connecting with your own inner wisdom, soul guidance and natural intuitive abilities to navigate the landscape of life. It has 50 oracle cards held safely together in a cute rustic mandala drenched brown box with the 133pg Guidebook that offers not only each card’s meaning but also crystal suggestions for an added energetic boost. Within the 50 cards are also 8 chakra cards to potentially highlight any energetic blocks or expansions are occurring. This is the second edition of the Oracle cards. The Lumina Tarot is also now on its’ second edition – and it melds animal magick, archetypal energy and symbolism together in potent visual imagery that will support you in accessing your own intuitive abilities. It comes with a 185-page guidebook and offers both yin & yang, light & shadow. I know these decks have been quite popular on Instagram because they’re just gorgeous! Let's get into it. | |||

While I would love to be able to answer each and every question personally, due to the volume it's sadly impossible. So, I've created a special Ask Brigit series on the Biddy Tarot Podcast to respond to some of the most commonly asked questions about Tarot. In this Ask Brigit podcast, we're going right back to basics and talking about how to start learning Tarot. I'll answer your questions about where to begin, what deck to use, how to focus on the right things and my personal journey with learning to read Tarot. Additional Resources
