Espiritismo and Anti-capitalism with Kaitlyn from Spirit Garden Tarot

In this special episode, Kaitlyn Graña (they/them) from Spirit Garden Tarot talks to us about their understanding of and practice of Espiritismo, including how living in communion with spirit means living in communion with all of creation. They share how to truly be in communion with creation, we must be anti-capitalist and anti-racist. Kaitlyn encourages us to develop our relationship with our spiritual court to help us to understand our role in caring for creation. They also share about the importance of finding mentors as we learn to trust and cultivate our own connection to our guides, gods, guardians and ancestors. After this conversation, it is clear that our spirit team has our back in doing the good work of fighting white supremacy, racist capitalism and learning to share resources, while acknowledging the role we may be playing in others’ oppression. Our well ancestors and spirits will hold us accountable with love. "The more time we spend at the altar, the more we realize that as we ask for blessings for ourselves, we must also ask that it flows over into our community and those we care about...this is an altruistic practice."
