The Abandoned Archetype as the Golden Shadow 32:14

32:14

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I’m unpacking the emotional aftermath of the Summer Solstice Summit and diving deep into one of the most powerful psychological and tarot-based concepts I explored there - the Golden Shadow, which I expand on as a type of abandoned archetype. I begin by reflecting on the special magick that unfolded during the Summer Solstice Summit and how a weekend meant for learning and connection blossomed into something collectively sacred and transformative. From heartfelt comments in the chat box, to “aha!” moments during presentations, it became clear that this space wasn’t just about tarot, it was about holding space for each other and ourselves. ***Skip to 9:57 to avoid hearing me gush about the Summer Solstice Summit.*** That leads into the theme of this episode: the golden shadow as the abandoned archetype. Using both therapeutic insight and Jungian psychology, I examine how the golden shadow holds our disowned potential… all of that creativity, boldness, and joy that have been buried under years of social conditioning and shame. I draw from Robert Bly’s “bag of shadows” as a metaphor and infuse some developmental psychology, as I reflect on how our shadow forms across the lifespan. Plus, you get to hear me talk about how the Tower is one hell of an epic, abandoned archetypal golden shadow. Tune in to hear my thoughts on how this often feared card is actually beautiful and admirable. In this episode, I also walk you through a tarot spread to help you meet your own golden shadow and discover your abandoned archetype. Through three card pulls, we explore how to identify repressed potential, recognize what’s blocking it, and find ways to integrate it back into our life. I end up pulling the Magician , Six of Wands , and the World . Whether you attended the summit or are just tuning in, I hope this conversation invites you to look at your shadow not only as a place of wounds, but as a container of all of your endless potential and authenticity!

Judgement & Justice Demystified: A Therapeutic Tarot Breakdown 28:56

28:56

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I’m diving into the nuanced and often-confused archetypes of Judgment and Justice (especially for newer readers). Plus, these are two major arcana cards that are especially relevant given the state of the world. Fun fact: this episode was inspired by a listener request, and I went full nerd-mode by pulling out lots of books I thought had unique perspectives on these archetypes in order to dig into these cards from psychological, therapeutic, and archetypal lenses. After a brief life update about my recent trip back to Florida, I shift gears into the cards. Using frameworks like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Jungian psychology, I explore how Justice and Judgement invite us into a deeper state of reckoning with both awareness and action. I discuss how Judgment functions as an inner awakening, a self-led moment of reflection, integration, and individuation. It’s less about condemnation and more about liberation, calling us to rise above our limitations. On the other hand, Justice shows up as the embodiment of accountability, action, and agency, while encouraging us to take what we’ve learned and apply it with wise decision-making. I also pull a couple of cards live to help me explore how these archetypes are similar and different. And what shows up? The Emperor and Queen of Pentacles. The result is a thoughtful (and real-time) interpretation that I hope inspires you to engage your own deck as a thinking tool.

The Truth Behind the Two of Cups 35:32

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I’m sitting down with the Two of Cups , but not in the romanticized way we often think about with this card. Sure, this card speaks to connection, mutual care, and being seen, but in this episode, I’m more interested in what is hiding underneath all that sweet relational imagery. Inspired by a lively (and opinionated!) book club discussion inside The Symposium, I revisit Jessica Dore’s take in Tarot for Change , where she explores the Two of Cups as a mirror - one that reflects not just the other person, but all of our unconscious projections, unmet needs, and early attachment wiring. Spoiler alert: we had a lot to say about her interpretation. I also spend time honoring Paul Quinn’s more relational lens from Tarot for Life , and some attachment theory to explore how this card hits differently when you're someone with a dismissive-avoidant style . We talk about the storylines we pick, as Esther Perel says, when we pick a partner - and how intimacy can feel like a high-stakes negotiation when we’re secretly wondering if our cup will be too heavy for someone else to hold. There’s a big through-line in this discussion around how intimacy and autonomy often feel like opposing forces, but they don’t have to be. Eventually, I explore the Devil and Temperance cards (because of course I do) as well as ALL of the cups as a progression of this dynamic . And we end with a beautiful appearance from the Page of Cups , who offers us a gentle reminder that curiosity can be the antidote to defensiveness. This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the ache of wanting to be close to someone, but fearing what it might cost them. We talk childhood attachment wounds, projections, survival strategies, and how tarot can be a tool for navigating all of it…with softness, insight, and just the right amount of therapeutic nerdiness.

Lazy or Liberated? The Four of Swords & Eight of Pentacles go to Therapy 26:59

26:59

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I invite you to step away from your Eight of Pentacles bench of productivity and join me on the stone slab with the Four of Swords - a card I kept circling back to while creating a workshop on the architecture of stability. After pulling the Eight of Pentacles (yet again) I realized this card that’s been following me around for two months now was in desperate need for a session on the couch. So, I paired these two cards and asked: Why does pressing pause feel so threatening? And what happens when relentless mastery meets restorative stillness? I also brought the Eight of Wands into the mix because I know we have all experienced a sense of urgency when it comes to creating, checking off a to-do list, or simply just by existing. In this episode I touch on: Why rest feels unsafe. First we look at the knight in the Four of Swords with three blades suspended overhead and one tucked beneath him. I talk about how many of us lie down “at the ready,” never fully releasing vigilance. Polyvagal Theory helps us name that jumpy nervous-system state and identify the ventral vagal calm we’re craving. How hustle culture rewires worth. Drawing on Juliet Schor’s research and Devon Price’s Laziness Does Not Exist , we trace the way late-stage capitalism elevates exhaustion to a status symbol, turning the Eight of Pentacles into a bit of a warning sign. The shame spiral of speed. Brené Brown’s work on perfectionism meets the Eight of Wands , highlighting our belief that value = how much we accomplish and how fast we deliver. Spoiler: that metric is unsustainable. A values check-in. I share a quick exercise I use with clients comparing an “ideal day” with a so-called “lazy day” to expose how easily we mislabel restoration as failure. Practical invitations. From booking bodywork to choosing a new setting (nature, a quiet room, etc.), I offer ways to step outside the urgent grind and let your nervous system soften into safety. The takeaway : the Four of Swords isn’t laziness; it’s necessary maintenance. And until our Eight of Pentacles selves learn to lay down the hammer (even briefly) true stability will stay out of reach.

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I have a timely and tender conversation with my friend and favorite financial educator Mimi Cirbusova to explore what it means to find stability when the world feels like it’s crumbling. Whether it’s rising rent, global uncertainty, or emotional exhaustion, we’re all navigating something right now. This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and reimagine what stability looks like for you. Mimi walks us through her Money Mountain framework, and together we explore how tarot (especially the Fours) can help us ground ourselves, soften financial shame, and build emotional resilience in real, accessible ways. ✨ In This Conversation, We Explore: Why “stability” looks different than it used to and how to meet yourself where you are How the nervous system and financial anxiety are deeply connected The symbolic (and somatic) energy of the Four of Swords The tension between the Four of Pentacles and Four of Wands (survival vs. joy) Reframing saving, spending, and celebrating through a trauma-informed lens How tarot can soothe money shame and create space for gentler decision-making Why community is essential for both emotional and financial well-being 🔮 Cards We Explore Together: Four of Swords Four of Pentacles Four of Wands Four of Cups King of Wands Two of Pentacles The Tower, The Star, The Sun, and the Wheel of Fortune 🧘 Final Reflections: If you're feeling the weight of the world, I hope this episode reminds you that you’re not alone. Stability isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about giving yourself permission to rest, connect, and redefine what support means for you today. Let’s pull some cards, take a breath, and remember that we don’t have to do this alone. 💡 More from Mimi: 🎧 Listen to the Meadow Sweet Money podcast 🌐 Visit meadowsweetmoney.com 📰 Subscribe to her Substack for new + full moon reflections 💞 Join her Patreon for tarot-infused financial accountability 🌙 Stay Connected With Me: 💌 Follow me on Instagram: @thetarotdiagnosis 🧠 Sign up for my newsletter at thetarotdiagnosis.com 👥 Join The Symposium — my tarot & psychology membership community If you love The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast, please consider leaving a review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a super easy and FREE way to support my work.

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I’m stepping back into my music-journalist roots (yes, I share a tidbit of my personal lore in this episode haha) and I’m leaning hard on my therapist brain to do something I’ve been dying to do: a Jungian-tarot psychoanalysis of Sleep Token’s new single, “Damocles.” Beyond dissecting the song itself, this episode journeys into the artist’s mind and unpacks the relentless push to outdo one’s last creation, highlighting the unique ache of making art under capitalism. In this episode, I look at how a seemingly stripped-down metal track can crack open huge psychological themes of coping with fame, creative and emotional burnout, cognitive dissonance, and the inevitable collapse of any persona. Drawing on Jung’s ideas of the Persona and Shadow, I unpack Vessel’s lyrics line by line, explore the myth of Damocles, and show how the song mirrors key tarot archetypes like The Tower, The Moon, Seven of Wands, and The Emperor (but specifically The Emperor from the Somnia Tarot with that anvil-over-the-throne vibe). Along the way, you’ll hear: Why the song’s minimal arrangement is a clever metaphor for longing to return to simplicity amid skyrocketing success How anonymity and adoration create cognitive dissonance and create emotional whiplash The inner critic’s cameo: “I know these chords are boring, but I can’t always be killing the game” A tarot-infused reading of the lyrics that reveal a map from persona collapse to individuation and integration Even if Sleep Token never hits your playlist, you’ll still love hearing a therapist psychoanalyze a song and weave its themes through universal tarot archetypes. So grab your deck, hit play on “ Damocles ,” and join me for a deep dive where metal meets myth and tarot meets therapy. Want to find out all of the ways you can connect with me live this month?

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I’m continuing my monthly Tarot Therapy series by exploring a topic I’ve been wanting to discuss for ages: How tarot and witchcraft function as Psychodrama . Specifically, I explore how tarot and witchcraft can be understood and practiced through the lens of psychodrama, a powerful therapeutic method developed by Dr. Jacob Moreno. Psychodrama is essentially theater for the psyche. It’s an embodied way of working with emotion, memory, and healing through role play, creativity, and storytelling. If you’ve ever lit a candle for someone you love, pulled a tarot card that made your stomach drop, or cried while drawing a protection sigil - then you’ve already engaged in psychodrama. In this episode, I share why I believe tarot and magick aren’t just symbolic or ritualistic, but active, expressive healing tools. I talk about how tarot spreads become psyche-inspired stages, how tarot becomes characters, and how we can use these practices to externalize our inner world in ways that go beyond talk therapy. I also walk you through a guided psychodrama-inspired tarot practice using a technique called the soliloquy - a beautiful, embodied way to give voice to something you’ve been holding inside. ✨ In this episode, I talk about: What psychodrama is and how it relates to tarot and ritual Why embodiment and symbolism matter for emotional healing How to turn your tarot spread into a living story A guided soliloquy-style tarot activity to help you release what’s been unspoken Want to find out all of the ways you can connect with me live this month?

The Wounded Caretaker: A Tarot Exploration 33:28

33:28

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast I’m exploring a delicate identity that many people carry without ever naming: the wounded caretaker . Inspired by a social media trend that says, “I probably just needed a hug, so I became a therapist,” this episode takes a deep dive into the lifelong emotional patterns that develop when we’re asked to care for others before we’re ready…and before we've been cared for ourselves. In this episode, I unpack the concept of parentification - when a child is placed in the role of caretaker, whether emotionally or physically, and what that does to their developing sense of self. Through the archetype of the ⁠Queen of Pentacles ⁠, we examine how this card (often celebrated for her nurturing energy) can also hold shadow traits of burnout, over-functioning, and self-neglect. I explore how tarot archetypes like the Ten of Wands, Page of Cups, Six of Pentacles, The Devil, and The Star offer a rich map for understanding the cycle of exhaustion, grief, and hidden hopes of those who were taught to meet everyone else’s needs and neglect their own. I also bring in psychological research and frameworks like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and attachment theory to illustrate how the identity of the helper often masks a quiet desperation to be held, seen, and nurtured. This episode is dedicated to those of you who have always been the “strong one,” the “go-to” person, or the “emotional rock” and who might be quietly wondering: But when will someone take care of me? And just a quick note before we dive in: the phrase “we’re all wounded healers” is often attributed to Carl Jung, who did explore the idea that healing often stems from our own pain. That said, the exact quote has been credited to several different folks over time. The first time I heard it was back in 2009, when I was taking classes to become a certified domestic violence counselor, and honestly, it was one of the most validating phrases I had ever heard. It gave me permission to keep moving forward in the healing profession, knowing that I didn’t need to be fully healed to help others. That nuance really sits at the heart of today’s conversation. ✨ If you’ve ever felt resentful after giving too much, struggled to ask for help, or found your sense of worth tangled up in how useful you are to others, this episode will speak directly to that wound. I also offer journal prompts, card pulls, and strategies to help you begin the healing process…so you can learn to care for yourself with the same devotion you've shown others. 💔 Remember, you’re not selfish for having needs. You’re human. And it’s time to include yourself in the circle of care. Deck Used: Joie de Vivre Study Referenced: Hooper, Lisa. (2008).

This week on ⁠ The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast ⁠ , I’m discussing a tender and often overlooked habit many of us carry: over-explaining. In this episode, I explore the psychological roots of this behavior through the lens of the Page of Swords , an archetype that is curious, alert, and sometimes altered by experiences of gaslighting or a lack of conflict resolution. We’ll unpack how early experiences with unresolved conflict or emotional invalidation can lead us to constantly seek clarity, not just for understanding and being understood, but also for safety. I explore how the Page of Swords becomes the internal part of us that can't rest until everything has been said just right , and how that habit, while protective, can also be exhausting. From there, we journey through the Swords court to see how our communication style evolves over time: from the anxious explaining of the Page, to the defensive urgency of the Knight, the discerning clarity of the Queen, and finally the peaceful detachment of the King. Each archetype offers insight into how we can move from over-explaining to grounded self-trust. If you’ve ever sent a “just to clarify…” text, stayed up all night replaying a conversation (hello Nine of Swords), or struggled with the need to be understood perfectly, this episode is for you. I also share practical strategies and tarot prompts to support your healing, self-reflection, and emotional regulation. ✨ Tune in for a heartfelt, validating, and empowering exploration of communication, trauma responses, and the healing journey from the Page to King of Swords. 🎧 Listen now on your favorite podcast platform!

I’m doing something a little different this week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast ! I’m re-releasing an episode from a few years ago on Tarot and Parts Work, where I get nerdy about the therapeutic model of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Jungian Depth Psychology through the lens of tarot. I have a few reasons for this: First, there’s been a surge of interest in this intersection, so I want to bring more visibility to the topic for newer listeners. Second, I’ll be traveling over the next few weeks and won’t be able to record a new episode. So, whether this is your first time listening or a revisit, I hope you find new insights in this conversation. 🚨 Exciting Announcement! 🚨 I’m hosting a Summer Solstice Summit from June 20th to 22nd , featuring more than two dozen of my favorite tarot and astrology practitioners! These are brilliant minds—therapists, psychologists, astrologers, and innovative tarot thinkers—coming together for a three-day immersive experience. I’ll be sharing more details soon, but for now, head over to TheTarotDiagnosis.com and click the Tarot Conferences tab to be the first to get updates! Now, back to this episode… During this episode, I explore and pull cards for different parts of ourselves—such as the exile, the firefighter, and the manager—while weaving in Jung's theory of the Self, the persona, and the shadow. I even share a personal example of an exile through the lens of the Eight of Swords , and I spend time processing The Eight of Cups and The Lovers . Plus, I discuss how The High Priestess is the most fitting archetype to represent the Self. Let me know what cards show up for you as you pull alongside me! 🔮 Decks used : Pagan Otherworlds & Tarot Vintage 💡 Have a topic you’d love to hear about? Submit your ideas here !

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I’m continuing the new Tarot Therapy series, where I explore tarot through the lens of therapeutic theories and modalities. In this episode, I’m nerding out about Motivational Interviewing (MI) and the Suit of Wands and uncovering how the fiery energy of Wands aligns perfectly with the psychology of change, motivation, and burnout. At its core, Motivational Interviewing is a therapeutic approach designed to help people work through ambivalence and move toward change. I spend time talking about how the four fundamental MI processes ( Engaging, Focusing, Evoking, and Planning ) mirror the journey of the Suit of Wands , making this an exciting and dynamic pairing. Join me as I explore how each card in the Suit of Wands maps onto different aspects of MI, using a fictional client case study to illustrate these concepts in action. From the Ace of Wands igniting motivation to the Ten of Wands warning us about burnout , this episode walks you through how tarot can help us better understand the change process. If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles of procrastination , burnout , or self-doubt (or if you just want to explore new ways to approach personal growth) this episode is for you!

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I explore how the brain’s dopamine system drives us to feel intoxicated by toxic relationships. Inspired by conversations with clients, I discuss the science behind intermittent reinforcement and how tarot cards like The Devil and the Two of Swords reversed perfectly mirror these psychological patterns. Join me as I walk you through the neurobiological and emotional mechanics behind toxic relationship cycles and share insights from the minor arcana that represent these forces. I also talk about the reversed behavioral characteristics of the Knight of Cups , the role of cognitive dissonance , and the pointed, yet nurturing guidance from the Queen of Pentacles for reclaiming stability and self-worth. The Moon , Wheel of Fortune , and Eight of Swords make their role known in this process as well. If you’ve ever wondered why you find it so hard to walk away from a toxic relationship or want to develop a healthier relationship with yourself, this episode is a must-listen!

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast , I’m wading into the intersection of tarot and cognition with Dr. Thomas Brooks, a research psychologist, educator, and tarot enthusiast. Together, we explore how tarot fosters cognitive flexibility, promotes self-reflection, and helps us hold complex dualities. We discuss the power of projection, the role of archetypes like The Emperor, and how pattern recognition can guide deeper insights. Thomas also shares his journey of blending tarot with academia, how this tool can reframe our thinking, and why he doesn’t currently read tarot for himself. Don’t miss this thought-provoking conversation about tarot as a cognitive tool! You can find Dr. Thomas Brooks on Instagram @impulsegnometarot , or check out his podcast, The Psychosocial Distancing Podcast .

Tarot by Omission: What's NOT in Your Spread? 30:06

This week on ⁠The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast⁠ , I am nerding out! I explore the concept of Tarot by Omission: what it means when a particular suit or archetype is missing from a reading, and how that absence can guide deeper self-exploration. To bring this concept to life, I introduce a fictional, therapeutic case study, analyzing a tarot spread where Cups and Swords are absent, revealing deeper emotional and cognitive blocks. I also offer practical applications for identifying and working with omissions in your own readings. Side note: I didn't explore the absence of court cards, but I will be exploring this in an upcoming workshop inside The Symposium! Inspired by my clinical musings on silence in the therapy room, I reference the following study in this episode: Koudenburg, N., Postmes, T., & Gordijn, E. H. (2011). Disrupting the flow: How brief silences in group conversations affect social needs. Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 47(2), 512–515. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jesp.2010.12.006 Want to find out all of the ways you can connect with me live this month?

Tarot Therapy: Aces & The Stages of Change 24:41

This week on ⁠The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast⁠ , I am introducing a brand-new series— Tarot Therapy ! In this series, I’m returning to the foundation of my work, where I explore tarot through the lens of psycho-therapeutic models and theory. Each episode in this series will dive into a different psychological theory and/ or therapeutic model , blending them with tarot to deepen self-awareness and of course, personal growth. In this kickoff episode, I explore The Aces in tarot through the Transtheoretical Model of Change , also known as the Stages of Change . If you’re part of The Tarot Diagnosis community, The Symposium , you might recognize this concept from a recent workshop. This episode serves as a deep dive into how each Ace corresponds to a different stage of change. Precontemplation → Ace of Cups: When we’re unaware that change is needed. What are we oblivious to that needs to change? Contemplation → Ace of Swords: The moment clarity strikes, but doubt lingers. What’s the story we tell ourselves about change? Preparation → Ace of Pentacles: Laying the foundation and gathering resources. What support do we need? Action → Ace of Wands: Taking bold steps toward transformation. What’s one small action we can take right now? Maintenance → The Fool: Sustaining progress with curiosity and resilience. How do we keep moving forward? Throughout the episode, I pull cards to explore each stage more deeply, offering prompts and reflections for your own tarot practice. Plus, I’ve modified the Celtic Cross spread to align with the Stages of Change —head over to Instagram ( @TheTarotDiagnosis ) to check it out! If you’re ready to explore transformation through tarot and psychology, this episode is for you. Listen now and let’s dive into Tarot Therapy !
