Been writing a series of letters to my child in hopes of sharing what I’ve learned in this little life of mine.

Got it last year and taking my time to embody the material. Usually don’t buy books on tarot but yours definitely caught my attention. And yes it’s my first tarot-related book.

A love spell to all oppressors in the world from boardroom to bedroom 🪷

May you feel the suffering you have caused.

May you take full responsibility.

May you commit to reparations.
