People have all kinds of idiotic ideas about tarot. Tarot is EVIL. Tarot is SATANIC. If you consult a deck of tarot cards JESUS will CRY. I call bullshit. But. On the flip side there are people who believe tarot is some kind of magical tool that will save your fucking life. I think people give entirely too much power to something that is, in the 21st century, mass produced and available at the website that owns the planet (as well as ETSY where baby witches go to die). The Ouija board never scared me, either. I'd go to slumber parties when I was a kid in Wichita Falls, Texas where there was always at least one little bitch who would burst into tears whenever the Ouija board was brought out.
My favorite quote of all time is attributed to Gertrude Stein and is available on pillows and coffee mugs at Redbubble.
There ain't no answer.
There ain't gonna be any answer.
There never has been an answer.
That's the answer.
There ain't gonna be any answer.
There never has been an answer.
That's the answer.
All that being said, I've made a decent amount of money with tarot cards since 2019. I have two monetized YouTube channels and a roster of clients. A few days ago a subscriber asked about a deck I created a few years ago. I'd deleted the design and all others from my storefront. Well, the subscriber inspired me to create a new deck. Here it is. Tarot Nada. Gertrude Stein (Aquarian) is the Queen of Swords.
Though I doubt any prole reading this will know of him, Michael Dummett, of all people, the great analytical philosopher, writes at length of the tarot.
ReplyDeleteThis deck is most notable for containing Dorian Yates btw ...

You always know stuff no one else knows. I had no idea who Dorian Yates was. You educated me. I asked if I could use Marlon Brando for the King of Wands. You said NO. You're an Aries so you would know. Thank you for knowing.
