This episode is a Wild Soul Interview with Tessa Giberson, who is an amazingly gifted tarot reader, city witch and zinester based in Ottawa, Canada. I had the honor of connecting with Tess both as fellow readers on IG, but also because they are one of my Tarot students! Tess approaches Tarot as a spiralic, revolutionary tool to transform the collective, and truly lives that message. They bring such profound wisdom, clarity, grace and power to this interview — I am so excited for everyone to be nourished by it!
In this conversation, Tess and I dive into:
• How Tess found Tarot on their path + how Caliban and the Witch, a book written by Sylvia Federici, has deeply impacted their journey as a Witch and Tarot reader (8:00)
• How important it has been to break out of the paradigm that you have to study for 20 years to begin to read for people (not true!) (11:52)
• Understanding and connecting to the Tarot as a tool through mental health struggle (15:42)
• Boundaries, consent, folk wisdom, showing up for readings in contraction, and how important it is not to attach to whether the client “liked” the reading or not (so important!) (31:53)
• The challenges of transiting through The Empress and reframing them outside the gender binary (43:48)
• Tarot as a revolutionary tool (52:21)
• The challenges with The Sun in the Tarot (1:05:08)
• Transiting through the Queen of Wands Reversed (1:10:04)
