An important discussion for buyers and creators of Tarot decks

Post by Joan Marie »

This is a long video but well worth the watch. I watched in 3 sits. (you can skip the first 10 minutes or so while they sort out the zoom stuff)



It is a very well organised Zoom meeting of a very diverse group of members of the Tarot community led by Queen Auset. They discuss some very difficult and important issues of the day as they relate specifically to deck creation, publishing, and buying habits. It's gets very real.

One thing that's remarkable about it is how on-point the discussion stays, which is tricky with a group that large (20-25 people) and trickier still because of the subject matter which on other platforms tends to spiral out. The group leaders do a great job and the result is a productive discussion full of insights and challenges and some hope for the future.

It's always good to learn and better still to learn from people whose perspectives you may not get a chance to hear often (or ever). And that it relates directly to our world of Tarot makes it a way to grasp new concepts within a framework we can all relate to.

You may hear a thing or two that you have trouble with, maybe disagree with, but that's a good thing. Keep listening. It really is a a very unique chance for us all. I promise you will learn things, everyone on the panel did. The long format really allows for some very thoughtful contributions.

This is about building our community to be stronger and more inclusive and I really admire all the people who participated and appreciate the way they are approaching this.
