Summary
When we've lost our way, or are trying to find True North in our lives, the Tarot can be a beautiful tool to help us sense into our way again. But there is no deeper, clearer, finer compass in the Tarot than the Pages: four gloriously potent anchors that can assist us in coming home to the root of our heart, soul, and self.
In today's episode, we discuss The Pages from a Soul Tarot perspective, looking at how they present themselves as sacred compasses, and how they occupy a very important role in the flow of the Minor Arcana from Ace to King.

| 0:17.6 | I'm your host, Lindsay Mack. |
| 0:20.0 | Hello, loves, and welcome back to the podcast. So, so |
| 0:23.2 | excited to be gathered here with you as always. Thank you so much for gathering here with me. |
| 0:31.0 | I'm very excited to kind of present this week's episode to you. It's been something that's been sort of |
| 0:38.7 | circling around my heart and mind really forever, but especially, uh, it's certainly not, um, |
| 0:46.2 | a topic that I haven't taught or, um, you know, dug into on this podcast and in various other places. But this idea of sacred compasses |
| 1:00.6 | in the terra, right? And really, the bottom line is any card, every card is a sacred compass. Just that's |

| 1:23.8 | consistently than any other. And of course, this is all subjective because the |
| 1:27.5 | tarot is a, you know, bespoke practice and everyone will have their own take. So, you know, |

| 1:49.4 | are the pages. And so we're going to talk about them from that framework. This is also an honor of |
| 1:55.5 | my teaching an extremely special workshop this coming Saturday, this coming Saturday on May 17th from |
| 2:09.1 | 2 to 4 p.m. Pacific Standard called Compass Current Cove Contributor. Working with the court cards |
| 2:16.8 | as anchors and helpers to embody our deepest |
| 2:19.5 | longing. So if you've known me and my work for a while, you know that I don't present or |
| 2:26.0 | teach the court cards from the perspective of them being representative of other people |
| 2:30.6 | as a rule, right? Perfectly fine, if that's your relationship with them. First of all, |
