S1 Ep 2: Terrible Tarot & Awkward Readings
In this episode of THE CIRCLE IS podCAST, Mat Auryn and Rachel True dive into the wonderfully weird world of awkward and terrible Tarot readings. They tackle burning questions like, "Is the High Priestess wearing lingerie under her robe?" and "Are you really the granddaughters of the witches they burned in Salem?" Mat recounts a reading for a woman curious about her extraterrestrial lover and another session where a client’s aunt seemingly returned as a cat. Rachel shares the tale of reading Mat’s cards for the first time and dishes on reading for Billie Eilish, including a juicy story about a gold digger client. They discuss the importance of study, challenges of reading for couples, expose tarot grifters, and offer tips on reading card energy with authenticity, as well as the importance of reading your own tarot to process emotions instead of unloading on others. Join Mat and Rachel for an episode brimming with humor, awkward moments, and the enchanting world of tarot.
