Tarot @ Teatime — Episode 28: Astrological Correspondences
In Episode 28 of our original series, “Tarot @ Teatime”, Honey and Willow explore the correspondences between astrology and the twenty-two cards of the Major Arcana of the Tarot as conceived by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the late 19th century magical order that had a great influence on the popularity of the Tarot as well as building on its esoteric significance.
The programme airs on Thursdays and Sundays at noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific from October 1st to the 12th.

Tarot @ Teatime — Episode 33: The Occult Tarot
As far as we know, Tarot cards were not used for divination until the late 18th century. French occultists drew together the threads of secret knowledge that formed the Western Mystery Tradition. We look at that tradition and examine how occultists in France and Britain linked it to the Tarot, forever changing the appearance of the cards and the ways in which they are read.
Episode 33 premieres on Thursday May 26th at 12 noon and 4pm /SLT Pacific Time (8pm and midnight in the UK) and is repeated at the same times on Sundays and Thursdays up to and including June 5th.
