Show notes

In this episode, I had the honor and pleasure of sitting down (virtually, for now) with Paul Chek, the man who introduced me to the world of holistic health back in 2015 and who changed my life irrevocably as a result.

This episode is a masterclass on the study of archetypes through the tarot. We first meander through Paul's motivations and formative experiences, the concepts of archetypes, the heroes journey, rites of passage, and the roles of cult(ure) and religion as psyche-shaping forces. In the last third of the podcast, we go one by one through the 22 cards of the major arcana.

I hope you enjoy this, and write down an questions or comments you have as you go because we will likely do a follow up Q&A and/or IG live on this topic to continue the fun and exploration!
