A Quick Tour of the Exploration Project
Plus some tools for browsing EP content . . . .
Hello everyone! Whether you’ve already been opening EP email for a while, or have just arrived, the following will provide a slightly organized view of themes/topics that recur in various newsletters and stories.
Beyond the guided tour—I’ve highlighted some helpful browsing tools at the end of the post. There’s a lot of content in the archives, so I hope you’ll have a look around.
First: Ten Doors to Tarot offers an introduction to my general approach, and it’s often referenced in other posts. There’s also an overview of Tarot basics, if you are new to the subject, or would like a concise refresher.
Second: I’ve been revising and updating (in some cases, completely rewriting) the chapters from Part One of my book Tarot: History, Mystery, and Lore. They cover the history of Tarot from 1400 to 2000, and this list makes it easy to read the sections in order—or choose the ones you’d like to check out.
Third: Here’s a list of posts on Tarot in literature, media, and the visual arts. Other special topics include Time Capsule and Unexpected Perspectives.
Fourth: Shifting gears, here are three interconnected posts on divination:
Fifth: Some EP newsletters and stories highlight difficult issues. Here are a few examples:
And finally: Here’s a list of my personal favorites from 2021. And here’s a candid, slightly contrarian statement about my approach to Tarot.
That’s a brief guided tour. But there’s much more content on the EP site—from reflections on Tarot and the Voynich Manuscript to unusual decks and unexpected stories. Here are some tools you can use for just browsing around . . . .
At the top of the home page, tabs lead to focused content groups.
Further down the page, there is a search feature you can use to find content that contains a specific word or phrase. It’s tiny, so you may not notice it!
Go all the way to the bottom of the home page to access the archive view—which lets you just scroll through all the existing content, from newest to oldest.
Thanks for finding out more about Tarot | An Exploration Project—and if you’re not already receiving the newsletter . . . .
Warmest regards, Cynthia
