🍂✨ October is here, and our tarot card of the month is The Wheel of Fortune (X) — reminding us that cycles open and close, and sometimes the best thing we can do is trust the flow.

This season also brings the magic of Samhain, the Old Year’s Night, when the veil grows thin and we step into a new cycle. I’ve shared a simple Samhain spread, reflections on the Wheel, plus new decks, tarotscopes, and our starter kits in this month’s blog.

🌈 Tarot Colour Symbolism 🌈

When we first learn tarot, it’s easy to focus on the images within the cards, especially as this is my main teaching point. However, the colours carry so much meaning too — they can completely change the way a reading feels when you add them into the equation.

In my latest blog, I’ve shared how colours like blue, red, yellow, green, black, and white deepen the story of the tarot, along with a simple tip you can try in your own readings.

✨ Why is the Fool Numbered Zero in Tarot? ✨

The Fool is often the first card you notice when opening a deck — carefree, colourful, and stepping right off the edge of a cliff. And yet, it’s numbered zero instead of one.

In my latest blog, I’ve shared why the Fool carries zero, what it symbolises, and how it can appear as the “wild card” in a reading. I’ve also included a few reflection prompts to try if the Fool turns up for you.
