Taja Tuesday Artist Talk | Cards & Cosmos

Taja Lindley centers tarot in her II XI XX (two | eleven | twenty) project, and for this season’s Taja Tuesday Artist Talk, she's going to share an astrological practice with her cards. There is a system of astrological correspondence in tarot that she uses to decode lunar cycles, big transits, and natal astrology. These personal rituals inform her creative process and projects, and help her (re)write the myth and legend of her life.

The Spring 2022 Edition of Taja Tuesday Artist Talk, will feature:

• a presentation about this astro-tarot practice

• how this practice informs II XI XX

• and how you can use this practice for yourself

Plus! Taja will be doing a collective reading of the upcoming new moon eclipse in Taurus (3:34pm CST April 30th) using this method.

This is a Patreon exclusive event so be sure to register at the Creative Conversation Patron level ($17/month) or above to attend! These sessions are recorded and uploaded into Patreon for folks who are unable to attend the live event.

Taja Tuesday Artist Talk | Memory, Tarot & Biomyth

Taja has been digging deep in her tarot scholarship and practice to support her interdisciplinary and multi-platform biomythography project II XI XX (two | eleven | twenty).

In the 2021 season finale of Taja Tuesday Artist Talks, she’ll be sharing:

• Tarot Constellations 101 – how they’re calculated and the insights they provide

• Memory work and how remembrance supports the crafting of biomyth

• Her current methods, materials, and (re)sources to craft this project

As an added bonus: she will prepare tarot constellation spreadsheets for everyone who attends! It will include your constellation and all of your year cards for your lifetime (from birth to 100 years old). To receive this bonus, you must do all the following:

2. Fill out this form by 11:59p EST Friday December 3rd, 2021
