Tarot @ Teatime Episode 39: Tarot Storytelling

Tune in for the final episode of the cur­rent sea­son of our orig­i­nal series, “Tarot @ Teatime” as we dis­cuss Tarot Storytelling.

Episode 39: Tarot Storytelling
In this episode we talk about Tarot sto­ry­telling, and why this is so impor­tant to both devel­op­ing as a read­er as well as to pro­vid­ing quer­ents with a real­ly pow­er­ful, com­pelling narrative.

Nar­ra­tive – sto­ry­telling – is an impor­tant part of a Tarot reader’s tool­box, and in fact, Tarot read­ers have tra­di­tion­al­ly been sto­ry­tellers, tellers of tales that they see in their cards.

We talk about how Tarot read­ers can devel­op this skill, and how they can use their cards to begin devel­op­ing a nar­ra­tive — a sto­ry that is unique and ger­mane to their querent.

“Tarot @ Teatime” is broad­cast on Thurs­days and Sun­days at noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific Time.

This is the final episode of the cur­rent series of Tarot @ Teatime. You can find the exist­ing shows in the series on Mix­cloud.

A new series begins on Sun­day, April 14th. In each episode, Hon­ey Heart will dis­cuss one card from the pop­u­lar Rid­er Waite Smith deck, cov­er­ing sev­er­al dif­fer­ent aspects of the card and includ­ing a sam­ple 3‑card read­ing fea­tur­ing the card in the key posi­tion in the lay­out.
