What are these different Tarot Tableau versions?

While it’s true that most people who would ever hear about this book can read a PDF, not all apps read it well. And some people just prefer reading in other formats. I aim to please.

Introducing Tarot Tableau: The Fool's Journey

Earlier this month, I published Tarot Tableau: The Fool’s Journey. I want to officially welcome you to the system and give you a sneak peek if you haven’t already seen the book.

Deck Interview: Light Seer's Tarot

The Light Seer’s Tarot feels extraordinary to me. I’ve never bought two tarot decks by the same person (tarot and oracle, yes), but rarely does someone create two such great decks as the Muse and the Light Seer’s, and Chris-Anne did them simultaneously!
