Summary

Today on the Biddy Tarot Podcast, I'm talking to the very talented illustrator Eleanor Grosch.   

The 'Everyday Tarot' deck is a modern take on the Rider-Waite deck. It's been designed with the intention of making it approachable, accessible, easy to look at, but at the same time, allows the reader to connect to the ancient wisdom of the Tarot.  

In this episode, you'll not only learn all about our experience creating the deck together, but also learn about Eleanor's inspiration and process.
