Ep 60 – Deal Breaker or Deck Maker: The Tarot Cards That Make Us Buy (or Pass) on a New Deck
We all have our tarot deck dealbreakers.You know the feeling—you’re flipping through a deck, curious and excited… and then you see it. A card that stops you in your tracks—for better or worse. Sometimes it only takes one card to make us fall in love... or put the deck right back on the shelf.In this episode of Tarot with Bonnie and Peter, we talk about the cards that speak to us, the ones that feel off, and how just one card can shift the whole vibe of a deck. But it’s not just about single cards—we also talk about the backs (can you tell if it’s reversed?), the titles (or lack of them), themed decks, and how the artwork has to feel right for us to actually use the deck in our practice.If you love collecting tarot decks, or you’re shopping for something new, you don’t want to miss this episode.And as always, we wrap the episode by each pulling a card and giving our personal insights into its meaning. We hope this one gets you thinking about what you truly want from your decks—and your practice.Join our CommunityDo you have cards that make or break a deck for you?

Ep 59 – Reading Reversals in the Tarot: To Reverse or Not to Reverse
What happens when tarot cards show up upside down? In this week’s episode, we turn the deck on its head—literally—and explore one of tarot’s most debated topics: Should you read reversals?Some readers swear by them. Others ignore them entirely. We’re here to unpack both perspectives, share how we personally work with reversals, and offer some guidance for interpreting them in meaningful, intuitive ways.We take a balanced look at both approaches and share how our own relationships with reversals have evolved over time. We also share some creative and intuitive ways to work with reversals—seeing them not as "bad" or "wrong," but as invitations to pause, reflect, and listen more closely. And of course, we wrap the episode the way we always do—by each pulling a card. But this time, we interpret them reversed. Tune in to hear how Bonnie and Peter approach their cards from two different angles, revealing just how rich and varied reversal work can be.Join our Community and the ConversationWe’d love to hear where you land on this topic: Do you use reversals?

Ep 58 - Dinner with the Majors Finale: The Fool Leaps, Justice Balances
What do you get when a wide-eyed wanderer and a truth-teller walk into a dinner party? The final episode of our Dinner with the Majors series—and it’s full of surprises.In this final chapter, we go out with a bang—and a few emotional curveballs. Peter steps into the energy of The Fool, and reminds us that sometimes you just have to leap, trust, and enjoy the ride. (Yes, even if you're not sure where it’s going.) Bonnie channels Justice, diving into self-honesty, and how our outer world is a reflection of our inner world.As always, we answer a mix of fun and contemplative questions as if we are the cards themselves, like:If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?What movie and/or book would you recommend?What may be blocking or challenging me right now—and what could support me to move forward?This episode takes some unexpected turns—ranging from air balloons to tightropes, surf and turf to tour guides and train tickets—and somehow lands exactly where it needs to. With nods to Stand By Me and Shawshank Redemption this conversation tugs at the heartstrings and asks big questions about who we are and how we live. It’s real, raw and magical. Whether you’ve followed this series from The Magician to The World or you’re jumping in now, this one’s not to be missed.Join Our CommunityIf our Dinner with the Majors series has sparked new insights or made you laugh out loud, we’d love for you to stick around.

Ep 57 – Dinner with the Majors: The Moon Embraces Mystery, The Wheel Moves Us Forward
What do you get when one archetype thrives in mystery and the other reminds us that change is the only constant?In this episode of our continuing series Dinner with the Majors, Peter steps into the elusive energy of The Moon, while Bonnie channels the ever-shifting force of The Wheel of Fortune. Together, we explore how both archetypes invite us to let go of certainty and meet life as it is—unpredictable, confusing, and sometimes surprisingly magical.As always, we each pull a Major Arcana card and speak from its perspective, responding to a range of fun and meaningful questions along the way.We ask questions like:What’s your go-to comfort food?If you could work any job for a day, what would it be?What’s challenging me right now—and what would support me to move forward?Peter (as The Moon) reflects on how this archetype invites us to navigate uncertainty by tuning in rather than figuring out. With a nod to the movie Pan’s Labyrinth and moonlit shores on a remote Hawaiian beach, he reminds us that when the path isn’t clear, intuition becomes the guide.Bonnie (as The Wheel of Fortune) shares how releasing control often opens doors we didn’t even know were there. She takes us to a trip to Disney Paris and what it would be like to work at a glamorous casino in Monaco. She reminds us that destiny works best when we stop trying to micromanage it.This episode is about navigating mystery, trusting the timing, and letting life surprise you.Join Our CommunityIf you’re enjoying the Dinner with the Majors series, subscribe to Tarot with Bonnie and Peter, leave a review, and share your favourite moment from this episode—it helps others find the show and connect more deeply with the cards.Want to share how The Moon or The Wheel of Fortune might answer your questions?

Ep 56 - Dinner with the Majors: Death Lets Go, The Emperor Builds A Strong Foundation
What happens when you sit down to dinner with two archetypes that seem like opposites—one clearing space, the other creating structure?In this week’s Dinner with the Majors, we explore themes of release, endings and the sacred emptiness that makes way for new beginnings in the Death card and the power of boundaries, routines and building solid foundations that help us grow with The Emperor. We answer a mix of playful and profound questions as if we are the cards themselves, like:What is your go-to comfort food?What unusual job would you try for a day?Do you have any hidden talents?What’s blocking me—and what’s the next step forward?Peter (as Death) reflects on wandering through places like Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, the art of letting go, and even what it might mean to be a funeral director for a day. Bonnie (as The Emperor) brings us to Versailles, considers a day in the life as a game warden with clear rules and respect for boundaries, and explores how routines and structure can actually be freeing.This episode is a conversation about endings and beginnings—the release that makes space for growth and the steady foundations we build when we know our values. Along the way, we nod to songs like I’ll Stand by You and It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine), reminders that change can feel both supported and surprisingly freeing.Join Our CommunityIf you’re enjoying the Dinner with the Majors series, subscribe to Tarot with Bonnie and Peter, leave a review, and share your favourite insight from this episode—it helps others discover the podcast and deepen their connection with the cards.Have your own thoughts on how Death or The Emperor would answer these questions?
