is there an area of your tarot practice or tarot studies that you feel consistently stuck about? something that keeps coming up as a road block or challenge?

part of the reason that my work leans so hard into "read tarot for your own damn self / fuck the rules" is that i spent almost thirty years dragging myself out of evangelical fundamentalist protestantism only to see tarot readers arguing about the "one correct way" to interpret the cards

WHAT DAY IS IT

this month i wrote about the six of cups, drinking wine with others, and the magic of collective discovery. read it here: 3amtarot.ghost.io/june-2026-si...

When I see an AI summary, I avert my eyes like I walked in on my grandmother changing clothes.

over the last few months i've put a TON of time and energy into revamping my tarot membership program — but i haven't had nearly as much energy for actually promoting it. tell me small business owners, what's a thing you've put a lot of love into making but haven't been promoting? share it here!

recently got to attend / run events with two brilliant tarot writers and teachers, lindsay mack and mariana louis. and in both events, discussion centered so much on something i also deeply believe: that tarot isn't just about memorization or keywords, but about deep relationship with the cards.

absolutely the fuck not

just reread this essay of mine on grief, depression, and gratitude, and thought maybe you could use it too: 3amtarot.ghost.io/grief-gratit...

hey nyc, i'm absolutely honored to be reading tarot at the morgan library on august 21st to celebrate their upcoming tarot exhibit — come through and let's sling some cards! www.themorgan.org/programs/tar...

if you’re anti-AI, or are eager to move beyond relying on AI to help you understand or articulate yourself, tarot can be an active tool that support these efforts. tarot can help you find truth, but it also teaches you to see layers & nuance, to slow down, to pay attention, and to seek clarity.

Why do this when you could just ask @megjoneswall.bsky.social?

please understand. artists don't get nearly as much feedback (praise, comments or otherwise) as you think they do. much less than years and years ago. we don't know how much you like it. we don't know how it affected you. unless you say something, or recommend it, comment, reblog. anything.

pop, six, squish, uh uh, cicero, lipschitz

every month i send out a batch of brand new original tarot spreads to my newsletter subscribers — and for may i wrote spreads connected to numbers. get 'em right here: 3amtarot.ghost.io/may-2026-spr...

all month, @akpress.org is donating $2 from every item sold to help Marius Mason re-enter society after almost 20 years in prison for his work trying to defend the earth. This includes both both books they publish and also books they distribute. I'll link some of my own and others that I like:

What so many have experienced personally has been confirmed by a new study: AI has been a disaster for working artists.

was listening to a business marketing resource and they suggested figuring out your brand's theme song and now i can't stop thinking about it my first thought (but am open to suggestions): youtu.be/Yu7SdgQ9LC4?...

this is both completely appalling and not at all surprising. great day, like every other day, to support independent journalists and writers who do NOT use AI.

tarot can support our free will and our agency, serving as a tactile, analog reference point and meaning-maker. tarot is literally physical media. not only do you not need AI to read and understand it, but using AI to interpret your cards actively degrades the potency that tarot has to offer.

i’ve been thinking a lot lately about the increasing use of AI in tarot — not just in deck creation (ew) or in studying card meanings (gross), but people literally turning to AI to interpret their card readings. people pulling tarot for themselves, and then asking chatGPT what their reading means.

Anyway, get to ground. It's always my *advice* [when I offer any]. Get hyper local. Find your people and fight where you are. This is where you can make the most impact and a real difference. Do this as much as you can, take care of yourself, and take care of your people.

the most effective way for me to make absolutely sure that i work on my monthly newsletters is to put "work on your book and NOTHING ELSE" on my to-do list for the day nothing like procrastinating on one writing project by focusing on another

happy may day! every right you have as a worker was written in blood ❤️

for may 2026 i wrote about the tarot's five of cups, disappointments, and why you should actually just let yourself be a mess sometimes: 3amtarot.ghost.io/may-2026-fiv...

being the pocket butch of the household is all fun and games until the tension rod shower curtain won't stay up

since apparently it's time for smoking discourse, i started smoking cigarettes in 2003 my evangelical christian college fucked up my english credits and made me take writing 101 during my last semester, so i wrote a persuasive essay about why smoking is good, actually

It's tough seeing every single freelance artist I know having the same "uhh I haven't had paying work or sales in weeks" posts, it's gotten extremely tough out there for us. If you have the means, please consider treating yourself to a commission or print or book from an artist you like, it helps!

this month i wrote tarot spreads for all four PCs in my current d&d game (and a fifth spread for the GM): 3amtarot.ghost.io/april-2026-s...

i have been moving SO SLOWLY on my third book (hello to my editor, i know i owe you an email, i'm so sorry) and it has literally never occurred to me to use AI. AI is gross and weird and bad. it sucks. i will never use it.

for april 2026, i wrote about the four of cups, tender hearts, and navigating relationships with care and intention:

Seeing ICE detaining people at airports is so sickening and so are the details about the LGA plane crash. Just a fraction of the money they’re using to brutalize families could be spent on rehiring air traffic controllers, who they fired so they could brutalize more people
