87: Mother of Modern Tarot - Pamela Coleman Smith
Manage episode 447908297 series 3472788
Laylla and Chelle honor the life and legacy of Pamela Colman Smith, the brilliant artist behind the iconic Rider-Waite-Smith (or what Laylla calls the Smith-Waite) tarot deck. Overlooked until recently, Pamela’s work has influenced countless readers and seekers for over a century, yet her story remains shrouded in mystery and intrigue.
Join the witches as they delve into Pamela’s life as a (possibly) queer, (possibly) mixed-race artist and occultist, her connections with the Golden Dawn, and the fascinating symbolism she infused into each card. They’ll explore how Pamela’s vision transformed tarot into a visual language that continues to inspire modern witchcraft and divination.
Tune in as they celebrate this powerful ancestress and unsung hero of tarot, uncovering the artistry, spirit, and intuition she brought to her craft—and why she deserves a place of honor in the hearts of all who read the cards. This episode is a beautiful blend of history, homage, and magic, perfect for connecting with the spirit of an artist who forever changed the world of tarot.
