Connect with Maggie!https://hiyamaggie.com/In this episode...What if everything you were taught about tarot was actually getting in the way? In this episode of Confessions of a Tarot Reader, host Bex sits down with Maggie Glennon — writer, creative, teacher, and self-described tarot anarchist — for a conversation that quietly gives permission to everyone who has ever felt like they were doing it "wrong".In this episode, Maggie and Bex explore what happens when you approach the cards from the bottom up rather than top down, why neurodivergence reframes so much of how we engage with tarot tools and structures, and what it actually feels like when something playful starts to attract an audience. They also get into the psychology of tarot — projection, authority, the question of where the messages really come from — and have an honest, funny conversation about which cards they're vibing with and which ones they're fully beefing with.Highights:Why Maggie cut up her tarot deck — and what it unlockedTarot for neurodivergent people: spreads, prompts, and why structure can block connectionStepping into the card vs. looking up the meaningUsing tarot face-up, as fragments, and for mind mappingSocial media: when playful creation meets an audienceReading for others vs. reading with others — a language shift that mattersProjection as a tarot tool, not a dirty wordChatGPT for tarot interpretation: useful thought partner or shortcut past yourself?Beefing and being besties with specific cards (Three of Cups, Judgment, the whole Wands suit)Three tips for getting your hands dirty with the deck — no book requiredThe Hermit and the Hangman fan fiction (yes, really)Like the episode?
