treat yourself tarot & having some fucking fun

we all need some goddamn whimsy in our lives sometimes.

hello again, friends. i am a trained grief facilitator and a scorpio sun with a lot of big heavy feelings — but i'm also a mercury-ruled magpie who loves to laugh. i contain multitudes, just like you do. and in this nightmare of a timeline, in this pride month where queer and trans people continue to be the scapegoats for every bad thing that the people in power can possibly blame us for, we have to tell the bigots to fuck off while we make our own fun.

so with that in mind, i offer you: treat yourself tarot, a deeply unserious tarot community container for inviting desire, joy, and laughter into your life (and into your practice). we'll spend twelve days exploring playful prompts in a private discord channel, sharing the most unhinged and silly card interpretations we can think of — and we'll also practice bringing that whimsy and irreverence into our actual lives.

meet other tarot readers, find some laughter, and walk away with new pals as well as a handy dandy list of activities to reach for in moments where you need to blow off some steam. we start on june 24th!

the best part? if you're a hermitage member you get to participate for free, and if you're a paid newsletter subscriber at any tier you get 50% off (code at the bottom of this newsletter). i want treat yourself tarot to be a low stakes, accessible, deeply joyful experience that brings us together and reminds us of the importance of laughter, even in impossible moments.

andeveryone who signs up in the first 48 hours will get a set of on-theme bonus tarot spreads to play with!

i know things are hard and serious and painful. i know that you might associate tarot with heavy feelings or big transitions, or might only reach for your cards in moments of stress or fear. i know that laughter and play and silliness might feel like they're the last things on your mind, or like they're impossible to access right now.

but friends, we all need some goddamn whimsy in our lives sometimes. we all need joy, cheekiness, mischief. we all need reminders to loosen up. and sometimes, the best way to find magic is in using the tools that we already have at our disposal. not only do i want you to find the fun in your tarot cards — i also want you to bring a little lightness, a little silliness, into your embodied experience of being a human being.

you deserve it. let's have some fun.

hermitage members will be automatically added to the private discord channels to participate, so there's no action needed on your part! and if you're a paid subscriber to this very newsletter, you can get 50% off when you sign up for treat yourself tarot — scroll to the bottom of this newsletter to find the code.
