Tarot 101: What It Is (and What It Definitely Isn’t)

The Fool: Where the Tarot Journey Begins

In this episode, we meet The Fool—the zero card of the Major Arcana and the ultimate symbol of new beginnings, limitless potential, and a little bit of “holy crap, what am I doing?” energy. We’ll break down the symbolism, upright and reversed meanings, astrological connections (yes, we say YUR-uh-nus, don’t worry), and how to read this card in a way that feels intuitive—not robotic. Whether you're standing at a cliff's edge in your own life or just curious what this carefree traveler has to teach, this episode will help you embrace your next leap of faith.

Tarot 101: Part 2 — Understanding the Minor Arcana

In this follow-up to Tarot 101, we’re diving into the Minor Arcana — the part of the tarot deck that reflects your everyday experiences. In this episode, Sarah breaks down the four suits (Wands, Cups, Swords, Pentacles) and their elemental meanings, and unpacks what each number from Ace through Ten represents in tarot numerology. You’ll learn how to read the cards more intuitively by understanding patterns and symbols — not just memorizing keywords. Plus, Sarah shares a personal tip about why you shouldn’t obsess over the little booklet that comes with your deck… and how your own energy will always guide the message. Whether you’re just getting started or want a stronger foundation, this episode will help you decode the structure behind the magic.
