I’m always on the hunt for new ways of looking at the tarot. You’ll always find a tarot book on my reading table but I have discovered that some of the best tarot writing actually exists on the web. There are some fantastic blogs that I visit on a regular basis because they never fail to enlighten me and expand my own abilities.
Here are my top ten recommended tarot blogs:
1. Mary Greer’s Blog – no list would be complete without Mary’s blog. This brilliant tarot scholar engages her readers with a wide array of subjects from tarot history to different spreads to tarot references in pop culture. It is obvious that Mary is constantly learning and we are lucky that she is sharing her knowledge with us!
2. Tarot Eon – this smart blog is written by Douglas Gibb and I can honestly say that his writing has changed my view on tarot more than any other writer out there. He is deep, philosophical and playful. Whenever my tarot brain gets too lazy, all I need to do is hop over to his site and in no time, I am thinking deeper than I have ever before.
3. Tarot Elements – I’ve been consistently impressed by Catherine Chapman’s stellar blog. Excellent tarot writing and delightful guest bloggers (I even got the honor of writing a post here!) round out this blog wonderfully. There is a cornucopia of knowledge here and I’m always discovering new things!
4. Tarot Pathways – This is a blog at Llewellyn, new age publishers, written by tarot expert Barbara Moore. Witty writing, deep insights and so many different ways of working with tarot – it seems as if Barbara is an endless well of ideas and concepts! One of the things I really enjoy about her writing is her conversational tone – I feel as if I am sneaking a peek at someone’s tarot diary and getting the “real dirt” on what tarot is all about!
5. Bonnie Cehovet – Bonnie is a prolific writer and deck reviewer. She takes great care to provide detailed reviews of tarot decks and books and this is the place I go to before I buy a deck. I know I’ll always get an honest and thorough opinion without any hidden agendas. Before you plunk down your hard earned dollars on your next deck, be sure to look here!
6. Corrine Kenner’s Shuffle – This popular blog has it all – deck and book reviews, spreads, and get this – American Idol predictions! I LOVE this! Corrine is also a well known tarot author and has written one of my all time favorite tarot books: Tarot Journaling. Make sure you stop by here and see what she’s up to. It’s always entertaining!
7. Supertarot - If you want to learn more about the Golden Dawn system as well as get more familiar with the Thoth Deck, then Paul Hughes Barlow is your man and this is the site you want to visit. I am really new to the concepts he presents here and one thing I can tell you – Paul explains these methods in such a clear and concise manner that even my stubborn brain can ‘get it’.
8. Melissa Tarot – you know what I really like about this blog? Melissa has a great sense of humor and an excellent way with words. She explores cards in depth and melds philosophy with wit for a fun yet serious look at the tarot. I’m looking forward to watching this blog continue to grow. Good stuff so far….
9. Musings On Tarot – Arwen Lynch has one of the freshest tarot voices on the web. She makes me laugh out loud some times, she makes me think and she makes me hungry. What you ask? Well, she sometimes writes about tarot and food! I love her recipes and for me, this is the Holy Grail because there is nothing I love more than food – imagine reading about a tarot card and getting a recipe for guacamole! Fun! Don’t let that make you assume the blog is silly – there is some super intense tarot interpretations too!
10. Donnaleigh – This is a fun page with a potpourri of information and a tongue in cheek attitude at times. Donnaleigh’s colorful blog is never boring! She writes about her own experiences with tarot and she’s never afraid to take it to places I would never dream of! And if you’re too lazy to read (I know plenty of people who claim to be), she also includes an audio file “Tarot Minute”. Listen in and learn!
While this list is big, it is by no means complete. Be sure to check out these other blogs: Auracana, Big Tarot, Tarot Dame, 78 Notes To Self, Cat ‘N Owl and up and coming awesome tarot blogger Mike Hernandez
I also hope you check out the other blog I contribute to with my good pals Astrogrrl, Starcana and TaurusRising: Astrocreeps and Tarot Freaks.
Keep learning and keep reading!
Blessings!

Theresa, thank you for referencing me to this wonderful post. It is important for a “fresh” Tarot Enthusiast to be surrounded by like-minded people and nothing can beat the importance of information that comes from acknowledged Tarot Professionals. If not for the inspiring bloggers/writers like you and the authors you write about here, my personal Tarot life would be full of struggle!
Blessings,

Hi Victoria
I am glad the list was helpful. This list is by no means complete – there are many great blogs out there that will give you lots of food for thought for your tarot loving soul!
Blessings!

Thankfulness you for taking the time to note down concerning tarot plus intuitive readings. Finding frank information in relation to this theme has not been simple. There are a lot of doubtful citizens out there trying to take lead of naive public. With any luck we will be capable to melt away a little of this cynicism.
Hello,
I just found your site. Have been doing Tarot for 30 years. Emphasis on reading accuracy. I did this by recording readings and following up on how my predictions unfolded.
With computerized spreadsheet technology, I was able to keep complex and detailed records. I have only recently come to the internet to share my work with interested patrons.
Might you review my blog; tarottruth.wordpress.com?
Thank you,
Richard

I am in agreement with previous post.
After a few decades of recording and tracking my readings I learned that my most accurate readings were those readings on love Compatibility. Some subject areas, such ad politics were completely lacking in credibility.
And so, focused on the few areas that I had the most consistent accuracy in and developed a system for delivering an easy to understand reading.
Some results can be seen on my blog http://richardmcdonald.blogspot.com.
There you will find Compatibility reports on celebrities and an advice column called ‘Ask Richard’.
Would very much appreciate your comments on the readings.
Thank you,
Richard
Thanks for the list. I’m working through it now. I love the fresh insight from other blogs.
Hi Wendy,
I love reading other blogs. Always good food for thought out there!
Take care,
Theresa
I’ve just started a new Tarot Blog which explores the Major and Minor Arcana through a psychological and archetypal lens. Would love your commentary and feedback!
