Santa Fe Tarot Tribe

As we move into the dark season, let us examine Baba Yaga's story. Many of us may of first heard of Baba Yaga from the book, Women Who Run With the Wolves. Let's find out what relevance we find with this bad-ass witch. As a Slavic goddess, her influence territory includes Russia, Ukraine, and parts of East Europe.
I will be sharing from TarotPugs.com a seven card spread especially to connect and receive wisdom from Baba Yaga.
Please bring a tarot deck (but I'll bring a few Goddess decks, some tarot some oracles)

When someone asks to join the Santa Fe Tarot Tribe Meetup, we approve their request and then Meetup is supposed to send a welcoming letter.
We recently learned that Meetup does not always send that letter :-(

If you asked to join the Tarot Tribe, your membership was approved whether or not you got a letter! Please come to the gatherings you like, and know that you are a member in good standing. :-)

Let's get together to talk about tarot and have fun!
Do you want to learn about tarot? Share what you know? Talk about what a card might mean? Get a reading or give a reading? Or just get together for a pleasant afternoon with like-minded people? Whatever your interest or experience level with tarot, please join us to share your thoughts and enjoy the afternoon.

Dear Santa Fe Tarot Tribe, and all our Bookish Diviners,

January 12, 2025- Tea is for Tarot: A Haunted Tearoom Cozy Mystery by Karen Sue Walker
The lead character, April May creates a pop-up psychic fair in her tea shop for one day. It's all fun and games until someone turns up dead. As the investigation unfolds it seems the cards are stacked against her. This who dun it creates an atmosphere of friends looking at friends from a new perspective (not in library).

Not the first book in this series, the author has created multiple mysteries that might be of continued interest for those who appreciate tea. Here is the list of the other titles in the series: Tea is for Trouble; Tea is for Toxin;
Tea is for Tragedy; Tea is for Tarot; Tea is for Traitor; Tea is for Tears; Tea is for Temptation; Tea is for Taken; Tea is for Talisman.

UPCOMING:
March 9, 2025- Painted Oxen: A Novel by Thomas Lloyd Qualls
"What would happen if Paulo Coeho and Alan Watts had a love child?" This book, a weaving of mystery, ancient wisdom and sexy story, so says the back cover. I think taking a ride on painted oxen is a ride worth taking.
(not in library)

We will look for Tarot references found in the book (or magic or divination or...). After discussing the book, we will do a tarot card spread based on what we gleaned from the book. Please bring your favorite deck.

RSVP as soon as possible as space is limited to 8 (and that includes me). Please alert me if there is a change in your plans and you cannot attend. This will allow people on the waitlist to have a chance to attend.

FAQ: What if I don't finish the book? A: It's okay if you don't finish the book, not finishing is a critique in and of itself.
