The Alacrael Tarot Podcast Alacrael

In this episode, the fabulous hosts of the Death by Champagne podcast, Olivia and Mackenzie join us to talk Tarot! We begin the episode with a brief introduction, and get straight into several readings for ourselves and each other. We discuss card interpretations and compare imagery from several different decks, as well as make predictions about possible outcomes in certain areas of our lives. We each bring unique experiences and anecdotes to the table in this round-robin style reading and discussion, so pull up a chair with us and get comfortable as we explore the cards together!

In this episode, we break from discussions about the various meanings and interpretations of cards to explore a recently-published deck: the Nightmare Before Christmas Tarot. Alacrael shares his reactions to the artwork and symbolism of this Rider-Waite-Smith clone which has been based on a beloved film from his childhood. Both the positive points and the negative points of this deck are discussed in an honest, straightforward manner designed to entertain, inform, and assist you, should you consider adding this deck to your collection.

In this episode, we return from yet another period of inactivity, following a rather tumultuous beginning to 2021 for many of us. In Episode 18 of the Alacrael Tarot Podcast, we dive deeper into the concept of card pairs and a couple of methods which can be employed to interpret them. Whether you take an approach more based on the key-word meanings of the individual cards within the pair, or combine them on a more artistic level in your mind's eye, the best approach to interpreting card pairs (or any other element of a tarot spread, for that matter) is to leaven the standardized meanings with your own living intuition.

In this episode, we return from a period of inactivity, during which at least one major life event occurred. Alacrael has moved out of California! He is thrilled to have settled into his new home to an extent that allows for podcasting, and just in time for Halloween / Samhain! What could be better? Join us as Alacrael counts down his lift of top 11 spookiest cards in the Tarot, briefly discusses mediumship and contacting the dead, and delivers two oracle card readings from the Halloween Oracle (by Stacey Demarco) on manifesting strategies for the elements and how the end of 2020 may look for us.

In this episode, we depart from our standard tarot content in favor of a more peripheral topic, but one which I still think has a great deal of value for us as readers — Astrology. Have you ever wondered how horoscopes are written? Do you incorporate astrological meanings into your tarot practice? Have you ever taken a look at your birth chart or had it interpreted? All these topics lie ahead in a nice, long discussion geared toward the beginner or intermediate student of astrology. Whether this is something you’ve been curious about for a while, or a modality you had not yet considered for your own practice, I invite you along as we dive into a realm of stars, signs, and planets!

In this episode, we will be going over a listener-selected topic: spread creation! How do we make up new tarot spreads? How do we incorporate them into our own practice? Is a more structured approach better than a more unstructured approach? We'll touch on all this and more, and we’ll finish with my casting a custom tarot spread as an example which hopefully reveals a timely message for us.
