Entering the musty old Ace of Cups Bookshop through its fogged-up door, Jay is a total tarot newbie. She joins Enid, Dorothea, Rowan, Fuchsia and Angel, who have all come together to discuss Tarot and share what they know about the craft - starting with the oldest roots of Tarot (in Egypt, or Russia, or was it Roma fortune tellers?). They talk about the Thoth Deck and Aleister Crowley. They talk about Pamela Colman Smith, Penny Slinger and Frieda Harris. They explore everything from the Satanic panic of the '60s, Spanish tarot in the 16th century and the fashionable fortune telling of the French aristocracy. Enter The Tarot Circle to explore the history, craft and key figures of tarot, as well as tarot's place in modern day life.
