Queer the Cards, Liberate Your Practice, and Create the Future
About the Book
Tarot is a tool of possibility, questioning, explorations and transformation. Yet too often it is reduced to rigid, binary definitions that reinforce restrictive norms. In Radical Tarot, Charlie Claire Burgess reclaims tarot as a tool that can help free us from oppressive paradigms and empower us to direct our own futures through radical reflection, self-discovery and change.
With deep, knowledgeable and lyrical looks at the cards, Charlie deconstructs the cards’ historical meanings, offers queered and updated interpretations and invites the reader to imagine what else could be possible for the cards, for themselves and for the world. Queer, expansive, intersectional and creative, Radical Tarot is more than a guide to tarot - it’s a guide to your own personal revolution.
Informed by queer theory, social and environmental justice and Charlie’s lived experience as a queer and non-binary person whose life was changed radically through tarot, Radical Tarot is for anyone who dreams that better, more liberated futures are possible.
Because tarot doesn’t tell the future; it helps us create it.
Number of Pages: 288 (Paperback)
