Their book, The Red Tarot: A Decolonial Guide to Divinatory Literac y, reveals tarot as a tool for liberation, weaving critical race theory, queer theory, and other emancipatory frameworks with mythologies that decenter white narratives, bringing in references ranging from Hinduism to the Aztec pantheon. Every serious devotee of tarot should have this book on their shelves.
