About this ebook
• Provides rituals for each of the Major Arcana cards and shares exercises for resolving problems and dysfunctional patterns the cards reveal
• Explores in depth the plants, herbs, and flowers of the Hoodoo tradition featured on the cards
• Offers eleven new card spreads, such as the New Moon spread, the Big House Healing Trauma spread, and the Difficult Ancestry spread
In this Hoodoo and divination workbook, Tayannah Lee McQuillar presents a deeper understanding of the concepts, themes, and symbology featured in her best-selling Hoodoo Tarot card deck, along with providing rituals, botanical knowledge, and advanced practices for working with the cards.
Exploring the philosophy behind Hoodoo as well as its historical and spiritual roots, the author looks at this tradition as a nature-based spiritual system, emphasizing the unique environmental features of the Deep South that have shaped what Hoodoo and Rootwork are today. She explores in depth the plants, herbs, and flowers of the Hoodoo tradition featured on the cards as well as the animals that play a totemic role in Rootworking. She explains the three sacred circles of Hoodoo and the different groups whose spiritual traditions give this syncretic faith its complex heritage: early Black American Christianity, esoteric European traditions, and Indigenous American traditions.
Looking at the Elder cards (Major Arcana) of The Hoodoo Tarot, the author provides rituals to work with each of the cards and the plants, legendary figures, and the spiritual concepts they represent. She offers eleven new card spreads, such as the New Moon spread, the Big House Healing Trauma spread, and the Difficult Ancestry spread. She also looks closely at the Family card connections, explaining what particular cards reveal when they appear.
Presenting new ways to work with The Hoodoo Tarot, this book also provides a foundational introduction to the Rootworking tradition, allowing divination practitioners and spiritual seekers alike to expand their journeys of growth and understanding.
