History’s Hidden Women of Tarot with Cat Willett

Calling all Tarot history nerds: this one’s for you! 🤩

In fact, she’s dedicated the last few years to telling their magical stories in her published books: The Queen of Wands: The Story of Pamela Colman Smith, the Artist Behind the Rider-Waite Tarot Deck, and Women of Tarot, An Illustrated History of Divinators, Card Readers, and Mystics.
