On episode 273, Sabrina welcomes back a returning guest & friend Christopher Marmolejo to discuss their new book Red Tarot: A Decolonial Guide to Divinatory Literacy, and the Strength card in particular.

Christopher Marmolejo, MA, is a Brown, queer, and trans writer, diviner, and educator. They use divination to promote a literacy of liberation. They were born and raised in San Bernardino, California, among the pines, in community with the Yuhaaviatam clan of the Maara’yam (Serrano). With nine-plus years of experience as trained educator focused on cultivating classrooms of emancipatory possibility, they work with students around the world to plant and nurture the seed of a divinatory practice, finely weaving tarot, astrology, and curanderismo with critical, decolonial Black queer feminist epistemology. They are available for readings, and they are enrolling students in ongoing divination classes at www.theredread.com. Follow them on Substack (substack.com/@theredread) for more writing.

On episode 272, Sabrina interviews Taalumot, an astrologer friend who recently created an online community for Householders - a term that denotes people whose spiritual practice takes place in everyday life as opposed to leaving the world of everyday life. We discussed what householder spirituality is, and we talked about the weaving of different spirtitual lineages, Taal's family, his wife’s in-person community start-up, and what he’s learned from creating his online householder community.

Taalumot (“Tah-ah-loo-MOTE”), or Taal for short, is a writer, musician, astrologer, rabbi’s husband and father of two from Atlanta, Georgia.

He is a lay initiate of Michael Elliston Roshi at the Atlanta Soto Zen Center.

His wife, Rabbi Ariel Root Wolpe is the founder of Ma’alot (“Mah-ah-LOTE”), a spiritual community transforming Jewish life in Atlanta through music, nature, and Jewish wisdom.

Taal plays the drums there and helps run Netzah (“Net-ZAHK”), or Commitment, the container for men’s work in the Ma’alot community.

Taal has a website, taalumot.space, where he writes, podcasts, takes photos, and makes videos about spirituality in everyday life and offers a 90-minute face-to-face fireside chat, as well as a variety of written astrology consultations.

The site has an annual membership called Householders where people balancing committed spiritual practices with busy worldly lives can hang out and hold council on topics of community, family, livelihood, skills, and spirituality.
