GUYS. I just realized that it's only 99 days until Naked Tarot is released into the wild!
Ninety. Nine. DAYS. And then, my magnum opus (as those who've read the MS are wont to say) releases into the wild.
Get a sneak peek at NakedTarot.com.
And then, pre-order at Amazon.com, Book Depository Wordery or Barnes & Noble. Or, your wonderful local bookstore.
You will love it. I promise.
Especially if you're tired of the same old Tarot shit smelling up bookshelves and the web.
It's time to get...naked.

1. Whatâs your favorite breakfast food? My favorite is usually iced coffee and an everything bagel with cream cheese.
2. Book youâd like to give everyone (or wish they would read)? As for tarot related, I would have to say Creative Tarot by Jessa Crispin. For books in general, Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk (or any of his books).
3. What makes you laugh? Stand-up comedy, especially anything done by Josh Blue or Jo Koy. Love them both!
4. Song that never gets old: Either âSmells Like Teen Spiritâ by Nirvana OR âKarma Policeâ by Radiohead.
5. Drink of choice: Iced coffee, all day every day! Iced Chai is a close runner up.
6. Would you rather be hot or cold? Cold!!! I live in Arizona where it gets up to 120Âș, so Iâll take cold all day, haha!
7. Mountain, beach, desert, or forest? Toss up between mountains or the forest. How about mountains in the forest!
8. Favorite color? Chartreuse, Mint, and Neon Peach. I have a hard time picking one. Love color even though I wear jeans and black tees every day.
9. Best movie line: âYouâre going to need a bigger boatâ - Chief Brody in Jaws
10.Last thing you splurged on? Two new playing card decks for cartomancy!
Bonus Q for Jess: What Tarot card is trying to get your attention these days? Lately the Knight of Cups keeps popping up, it popped up three times on a week!

In this episode of the Naked Tarot Podcast, I discuss the power of music, especially when coupled with Tarot cards. Citing the work of Barry Goldstein, and correlating various Tarot cards with specific songs (mostly hard rock--ha!), you'll discover how music can not only capture a mood--but also form a bridge to how you want to feel. Yet another cool tool for your conscious creation toolbox!

No one can plumb psychological depths like a Scorpio--especially a âx4 with a background in psychology and counseling. đ
Because my Naked Tarot Podcast has become so popular (thanks so much for your great feedback!), I'm providing EXCLUSIVE podcasts for Patrons called PATHOLOGICAL TAROT.
Going "by the numbers", I'll divulge my never-before-shared method for "peeking under the skin" of each of the cards (including the Courts), showing the seedy underbelly (or psychological pathology) of each. You'll NEVER see Tarot the same way again...
(Current Patrons, you can increase your patronage to access these special podcasts.)
Thanks heaps for your interest and support!

I had the wonderful opportunity to interview Starman of Eye Psychics about the stunning deck now funding on Kickstarter--the Magic of Prophecy Tarot (that I'm thrilled to be backing!):
Janet: Hello and welcome! I think your deck is GORGEOUS. Before we get to the cards, who is Eye Psychics?
Starman: Thank you Goddess J, bless you so much and thank you for your support for this wonderful, fun and exciting new five-element tarot book and deck set; the Magic of Prophecy Tarot.
Eye Psychics is a developing company based in Canada but with members from all over the world. Our company believes in the nurturing and the development of the psychic sense and the art form of soul cultivation. Like any sport or profession the art of development is mastery through practice and our focus is the empowering of the individualâs natural strengths within a loving and supportive community. We are producing several key publications including TAROT AS A VERB, THE TANTRIC PULSE ORACLE and at the forefront the MAGIC OF PROPHECY TAROT and BOOK set which is available now through KICKSTARTER and is in production.
Janet: Why Tarot?
Starman: Ha Ha (big cat smile) Why Tarot ⊠Why air? Why breath? Why communication? Why language? Why discovery. Why exploration? There are so many whyâs to the question that we delight in the question. Itâs a perfect question.
To us Tarot is a language and a way to understand the elements in motion in, of and through ones life. In the understanding and in the knowing that ones life and all life is divine.
Tarot through the five element system allows for direct communion with the elements, for as we attune ourselves to the depth and knowledge that the language of tarot offers we can navigate through realms of depth and psyche that would other wise potentially confuse the unfocused or unaware.
The character Prophecy in this deck is the Magician, card # 1. The Magician as all tarot lovers knows, is the one with the ability through partnership with the divine, in harmony with (and in utilization of) the elements and of course through ones will, has the ability to manifest ones intentions into being.
Prophecy the Magician in this deck offers all the opportunity to do the same and this deck assists in the facilitation of learning the language of tarot so that one can consciously invoke the elements of harmony, happiness and delight into ones life.
This deck, the Magic of Prophecy Tarot is a journey in the application of magic.
Janet: How does your deck differ from other decks? What new energy do you bring to the cards?
Starman: Love this question also. First there are 92 cards making it a five elemental fully illustrated tarot deck; featuring the element of Spirit.
As the minors are means in with which to apply the essence and power of the element in ones life we find that working with spirit as an element gives an expanding focus to the craft. To honor and integrate all five points of the star, the upward direction of the element of spirit, is the balance point for the other four extensions.
We can see this in the Magicians card with each element represented equally and placed specifically and in order, around Prophecy.
We would also add that this deck brings a matriarchal perspective to the tarot and the nature of the elements in relationship to one another. There is also a reverence in the deck that is offered to the inspired creation of each card and the presenting deity/energy and each card and chapter is narrated initially in the first person.
This nurtures direct experience.
Each card also is formed/illustrated naturally, instinctively and from the heart.
Janet: Will there be a companion book?
Starman: We would call it a companion novel. Each card is a chapter of the book giving the book 92 chapters so itâs fully epic.
Ideally there is so much support on the Kickstarter for the book and deck that the volume flip allows for full printing of the book. At present the deck and little white book are physical and a digital download of the accompanying novel is offered in the reward of backing the project with the deck reward as a whole.
Janet: How many cards do you have left to illustrate?
The project on Kickstarter is to help us produce the remaining cards, which are now 2-10 of the elements. THE MAJORS, THE ACES, and the COURTS are all relatively complete. The entire funds raised for the project go directly into design and printing, real simple to help us get this vision into the hands of the magical and out into the world.
Janet: On Kickstarter, you ask backers for their card preferences for some images. Will you offer both versions of a card--or just the one that gets the most votes?
Starman: We are open. We fully welcome and invite the participation of our backers. Some backers are even showing up inspiring and as characters and personas in the deck. Meaning the work inspires production so readings and backer feedback is constantly showing up in and as part of the developing production of this deck. We feel the backers are producers of the project, with us. So we are fully in tune with and all ears when it comes to the desires of our backers. Our marketing budget has been ten cents, ha ha, so its because of the backers, people sharing and leaders like yourself seeing the magic in what we are doing and sharing its message that this is possible. THANK YOU!!!
Janet: What do you want people to know MOST about your deck?
Starman: Wow, what an intense question...
âŠThat this deck honors our teachers and those who have held the light up for us when times were dark or the world did not appear as friendly or as helpful as it can be. We would not be here and we would not be doing what we are doing if it were not for the kindness and life saving support of those in the know, with true hearts, compassionate presence and with the wisdom to reach out in a pure, uplifting, intelligent, essential and truly strengthening way.
There is depth to the knowledge and the magic is sacred. It is love that has brought us hereâŠ
STARMAN
Janet: Beautiful. Agreed. Thank you so much for your time--and best wishes on your Kickstarter project!
In this episode of Naked Tarot, I discusses a recent YouTube video from some punk who thinks that Tarot should NOT be accessible to the masses--because they'll "degrade" the cards, water down the meanings and "turn it into shit".

Recently, some punk YouTuber made the statement that when the Tarot goes mainstream, the masses water down and damage the Tarot.
That mainstream accessibility to the cards turns the Tarot into "shit".
That Tarot is not supposed to be for everyone.
That Tarot needs to remain under the domain of the "Tarot community"--under "our control"--and not in the hands of "corporations".
Um, just as an aside--here's the definition of fascism:
Fascism is a form of radical authoritarian nationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and control of industry and commerce.
Cough.
Wednesday, April 11, 2018 at 2 PM EST, join Dax Carlisle and me will take on this controversial topic on the next episode of The Tarot Insider Show.
Trust me...you're not going want to miss this.
