They discuss how tarot, often rooted in binary archetypes, can be queered to reflect fluidity, multiplicity, and personal truth. Charlie shares their journey as a nonbinary practitioner, the philosophy behind Radical Tarot, and how dismantling rigid narratives within tarot can empower deeper self-exploration and collective liberation.Charlie Claire Burgess is a queer and trans-nonbinary author and illustrator working at the intersection of tarot, spirituality, and queerness.

This year, I've spent a lot of time feeling lost. Since my layoff, I've been planting seeds and imagining myself into many new life shapes, wondering which seeds will take root.This darkness can feel fruitful but can also be disorienting.Recently, sitting in a coffee shop, feeling overwhelmed, a friend said to me, “You already know how to grow, even when you think you don't.”Could that be true? Deep down, is there a part of me that knows the way? Are we like acorns, carrying a quiet map, guiding our growth, even when the path seems obscured until we become an oak tree?Can I tap into my intuition to help me through this challenging time? Questions like these led me to ask today's guest on the podcast.Charlie Claire Burgess is a trans, nonbinary artist, author, and creator of tarot decks and I wanted to ask this excellent maker about their relationship to their inner life and intuition. Charlie works at the intersection of tarot, spirituality, and queerness and is the author of Radical Tarot and the creator of the Fifth Spirit Tarot and Gay Marseille Tarot decks. Their second book, Queer Devotion: Spirituality Beyond the Binary in Myth, Story, and Practice, is forthcoming in 2025. Whether you're new to tarot or not, Charlie's insights will inspire you to trust your intuition and take control of your journey of growth and power.Listen to the full episode to hear:How Charlie started coming back to their spirituality and embracing their true self after years of self-abandonmentHow tarot is a tool for externalizing thoughts and feelings to give them new awareness and perspectiveWhat Charlie had to unlearn about work to honor and support their creativityThe practices that help Charlie ground in their spiritualityHow tarot can be an opportunity to create agency rather than using Tarot as a predictive toolWhy following your intuition also means permitting yourself to screw upLearn more about Charlie Claire Burgess:The Word WitchInstagram: @the.word.witchLearn more about Valerie Black:The Change AgencyBecoming Power NewsletterCoaching

Gemini Full Moon I listen.  I communicate.  I integrate. Gemini Full Moon blessings to you!  The final Full Moon of 2022 finds itself in the whimsical and communicative Mutable Air sign of Gemini.  Wednesday, December 7, 2022 8:08 pm PST 16º 02' On this episode we explore the invitation of the Gemini Full Moon through ritual, tarot connections and a light guided meditation. In addition, we check-in with Mars Retrograde and reflect on some other major transits.  Then, we are joined for an hour conversation with special guest Pavanjeet! As always, I am forever grateful for you and our community.  Thank you to those of you who tune into the podcast and read the newsletters!  Right now, I am offering both astrology and tarot readings.  I am also currently taking applications for 2023 one-on-one mentorships.  If you have already applied for a 2023 mentorship and you have not yet heard back from me, I will be getting back to you by the end of this week. In case the Cosmic Cousin's Gemini Full Moon podcast episode isn't enough for you, I'm excited to announce that I have not one, but two (in that very Gemini way) podcast collaboration conversations to share with you! The first one is with the incredible Jonathan Koe (Gemini Moon) host of the podcast Healing the Spirit.  In our conversation titled 'Cultivating the Flame of Devotion'. Then, the second podcast collaboration is with the insightful Nick of the 'In Search of Tarot' podcast. In our conversation titled 'Queering Astrology'.   Community Announcements: Congratulations to Maha Rose!  They just announced on this Gemini Full Moon that they will be re-opening in Brooklyn, NY in the spring of 2023.  Maha Rose is the healing center where I first offered tarot and astrology readings, and I am forever grateful for the community, connections and opportunities that this loving community provided for me and so many others. Yay! Congrats to Charlie Claire Burgess (Aquarius) of the Fifth Spirit Tarot.  They are releasing a new edition of their tarot deck through Hay House.  For those of you who follow my work closely you know I love this tarot deck.  I am always using it in my teachings, as I love how it "“expands the traditional tarot archetypes beyond the gender binary, re-imagining the cards from a queer and inclusive perspective." Lane Smith (they/them) recently released a list of paired books with tarot decks as gift ideas.  Check it out here.  I thought this was a really inspiring approach and it felt very Sagittarius to me – an interdisciplinary approach – building bridges between education and the tarot.  Then, Lane communicated to me that they are a Sun, Mercury, Mars and Neptune in Sagittarius.  That's a lot of Sag! ***If you enjoy the Cosmic Cousins Newsletters and podcast, please consider becoming a Patreon Supporter.  This helps me as an independent practitioner support my life and work.  As a bonus, there is a 2-hour lecture on astrology and the body available for free for Patreon Supporters only.  OTHER LINKS Podcast: iTunes, Spotify, or Podbean About Jeff Hinshaw Patreon for Cosmic Cousins Astrology Mentorship Astrology Reading Tarot Healing Session Sign-up for Mailing List + Newsletter

Representation matters. Melissa, Hilary, and Jaymi talk about their queerness and how we can see beyond the gender to get to the core of their energy. Jaymi's mission is to remove the binary from the cards and give readers and sitters the power to create their own language for gender inside the cards. Hilary wants the bi-erasure to stop and to know that when we share our queerness with others it is with honor and privilege. And Melissa sees you. Really. Please do not out anyone who is queer, it is not safe to do so everywhere.

The banter of the episode involves Holly and Esther talking about their much anticipated D&D game and teases for a possible future game for Patrons.  Our first question of the episode asks about their career as the breadwinner of their home and how they can find a career that meets their needs both emotionally and monitarily. Our second question asks about using oracle decks in readings and we go on a ~slight rant about how Oracle decks are treated in the tarot community and about how we incorporate oracle decks into our readings!  The decks we talk about in this episode come from the second half of the contemporary section of our book: Golden Girls Tarot , Le Beau Monde Tarot , Kaleidadope Tarot, TV Series Tarot, Antique Anatomy Tarot, Our Tarot, 5 Cent Tarot, Next World Tarot, Black Power Tarot, Fifth Spirit Tarot, and The Numinous Tarot.  Our book, The History of Tarot Art: Demystifying the Art and Arcana, Deck by Deck, is available now!

The Fives aren't everyone's favorite cards in tarot—but they are at The Word Witch! The Fives are full of challenge, conflict, and contraction, but they are also where we meet our biggest opportunity to learn, grow, and spiritually evolve.

(Hint: it's because of the Fives!)   Tarot Cards in this episode: the Hierophant, Temperance, 5 of Wands, 5 of Swords, 5 of Cups, 5 of Pentacles.   Check out the Fifth Spirit Tarot deck at www.fifthspirittarot.com   The Word Witch is a podcast about tarot, astrology, magic, and belief made especially for queer folx and others making magick from the margins.
