How do you know when you're on your soul path vs your ego's path? Well, you can find some hints by turning to cards 7-10 of the tarot's major arcana: The Chariot, Strength, The Hermit and the Wheel of Fortune. In this final* episode of Key Finding, I talk about how these cards can help you find your heart's path time and time again.
*Yes, this is the final episode of Key Finding! I talk more about this during the episode, so give it a listen. An ending is always a beginning, and there will be more audio content coming from me in the future...maybe even a new podcast.

Join me as I pull some cards for the collective...especially if your nerves have been kind of frazzled lately (as mine have). This is pretty different than previous episodes of the podcast. Instead of having an 'outline' or predetermined focus area, I left it up to the power of synchronicity. The cards led me to talk about:
-reprogramming your self-destructive tendencies
-identifying your unhelpful behaviors so that we can be a greater force for good
-why creativity is essential now more than ever
-why it is so important to hold space for ALL aspects of yourself

The energy of death is impartial, and really doesn't care how you react to it. However, examining your relationship to the concept of death (both literal death and metaphorical death) is a transformative process. In this episode of the podcast, we're talking about all kinds of ways to consider what is probably the most famous tarot card.

So far on the podcast, I've talked a lot about systems for understanding tarot. But perhaps the most powerful way to work with the cards is by relying less on logical structures and more on your own inner knowing. Using tarot intuitively is what I'm talking about today with my guest, Vix from New Age Hipster.
Vix is well practiced at using her intuition these days - she reads for clients, she teaches "Woo Woo School" and she creates incredible tarot spreads. But she's had a journey to get here! She talks about how she was introduced to tarot and how she learned to read cards intuitively. Vix also offers lots of practical tips and advice to help you use YOUR intuition with your cards.
Enjoy this episode of Key Finding! New episodes come out every other Tuesday. Visit my blog for links to resources mentioned in this episode: http://carriemallon.com/blog/key-finding-005-intuitive-tarot-with-vix-from-new-age-hipster/ -

Let's continue our exploration of the 8 Core Tarot Cards! This time, we are talking about the four aces.
In this podcast episode you will learn about “aceness” or what it is to be an ace. You will also gain a solid understanding of how each ace paves the way for the rest of each suit. We’ll also talk about how these four aces tie into Carl Jung’s concept of the four ego functions.

Each of the 78 cards in a tarot deck is essential - but there are 8 cards that carry a particularly crucial weight. These 8 cards lay the foundation for what unfolds in the rest of the deck. This is part 1 of a 2 part series, and focuses on 4 of the 8 core tarot cards: The Fool, The Magician, The High Priestess and the World. We'll pay particular attention to how these cards tie into your spiritual and personal development. I'm so excited about this one, I hope you enjoy listening!
