  • Pamela Colman Smith – The Visionary Behind the Modern Tarot

    Pamela Colman Smith – The Visionary Behind the Modern Tarot
    Mar 25 2025
    Continuing our celebration of remarkable women in history, today we honor Pamela Colman Smith—the artist and mystic whose visionary illustrations brought the Rider-Waite Tarot to life. Though often overshadowed by her male contemporaries, Pamela’s work revolutionized Tarot, infusing each card with rich symbolism and intuitive depth. Her legacy lives on in every reading, every seeker’s journey, and every moment of insight drawn from her iconic deck. Who Was Pamela Colman Smith? Born in 1878 in England and raised partly in Jamaica, Pamela’s life was a tapestry of artistic inspiration and esoteric knowledge. She studied at the prestigious Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, where she honed her skills as an illustrator and storyteller. But her true calling emerged when she became deeply involved in the occult world, joining the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn—a secret society devoted to mystical and magical studies. It was through this connection that she met Arthur Edward Waite, who commissioned her to illustrate what would become the Rider-Waite Tarot Deck in 1909. With her deep understanding of symbolism, color, and archetypal storytelling, she created a deck that transformed Tarot into an accessible, intuitive tool for seekers of all backgrounds. A Mystical Artist Ahead of Her Time Pamela, known as "Pixie" to her friends, was a woman of boundless imagination and deep spiritual insight. She didn’t just illustrate Tarot—she wove stories within each card, making even the numbered Minor Arcana visually meaningful for the first time. Her use of vivid colors and evocative imagery set the standard for modern Tarot decks, making them easier to interpret and read intuitively. Beyond Tarot, Pamela was also a playwright, poet, and publisher. She created her own magazine, The Green Sheaf, where she published her art, folklore, and mystical tales. Yet despite her immense contributions to both the art and spiritual communities, she struggled financially and remained largely unrecognized in her lifetime. Why Pamela Colman Smith Still Matters Though history often credited the Rider-Waite Tarot to Arthur Waite, Pamela’s art is what made the deck iconic. Her ability to channel esoteric wisdom into powerful imagery has shaped how millions of people connect with Tarot today. Pamela also serves as a reminder of the countless women artists, mystics, and visionaries whose contributions have been overlooked. In recent years, Tarot lovers have worked to restore her legacy, ensuring she receives the recognition she deserves as the true artist of the world’s most famous deck.

  • Florence Scovel Shinn: The Woman Who Taught Us To Manifest

    Florence Scovel Shinn: The Woman Who Taught Us To Manifest
    Mar 20 2025
    Continuing our celebration of remarkable women in history, today we honor Florence Scovel Shinn—a metaphysical teacher, artist, and author whose work laid the foundation for modern manifestation techniques. Long before "law of attraction" became a buzzword, Florence was teaching people how to align their thoughts, words, and beliefs to create the life they desired. Who Was Florence Scovel Shinn? Born in 1871 in Camden, New Jersey, Florence started her career as an illustrator before stepping into her true calling as a spiritual teacher and writer. She was a pioneer in New Thought philosophy, blending Biblical wisdom with the power of affirmations and visualization. In 1925, she self-published her groundbreaking book, The Game of Life and How to Play It, which remains a staple for anyone on a manifesting journey. The Power of Words and Thought Florence believed that our words hold creative power, shaping our reality in ways we may not even realize. She taught that by aligning our speech with our desires, we can shift our circumstances and call in abundance, love, health, and success. Many of her affirmations—such as "I now release the past and move forward into the divine plan of my life"—are still widely used today. Manifestation and Spiritual Law Unlike many teachers of her time, Florence didn’t just focus on positive thinking; she emphasized the importance of divine timing, faith, and letting go of resistance. She described life as a game played according to spiritual laws, and those who mastered these laws could create lives filled with ease, prosperity, and joy. Her teachings on synchronicity, intuition, and trusting the Universe continue to inspire modern-day spiritual seekers. Why Florence Still Matters Florence’s work paved the way for today’s manifestation movement, influencing countless spiritual teachers, authors, and coaches, like me! Her message—that we are powerful co-creators of our reality—is just as relevant now as it was a century ago. She reminds us that faith and fearless belief are the keys to unlocking infinite possibilities. Honoring Florence Scovel Shinn Today Want to bring Florence’s wisdom into your own life?

    Marie Laveau – The Voodoo Queen of New Orleans
    Mar 12 2025
    Continuing our celebration of extraordinary women in history, today we honor Marie Laveau—the legendary 19th-century Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. A spiritual leader, herbalist, and powerful healer, Marie Laveau’s influence extended beyond magic—she was a force of justice, wisdom, and compassion. To this day, her legacy continues to inspire those drawn to mysticism, folk healing, and ancestral power. Who Was Marie Laveau? Born in 1801 in New Orleans, Marie Laveau was a free woman of color in a time when racial and social divides were deeply entrenched. Though much of her early life remains a mystery, she trained as a hairdresser, giving her access to the homes and secrets of New Orleans’ wealthiest and most powerful. But her true calling was something far greater—she became a renowned Voodoo priestess, healer, and spiritual guide, serving both the elite and the poor with equal dedication. A Spiritual Leader and Folk Healer Marie Laveau’s work blended Catholicism, African spiritual traditions, and Indigenous practices, creating a unique and powerful form of Voodoo that provided protection, healing, and justice for those in need. She was known to perform elaborate ceremonies in Congo Square, where drumming, chanting, and dance called forth divine energy. She was also a highly skilled herbalist and practitioner of gris-gris—a form of folk magic using charms, potions, and prayers to manifest desires, from love and prosperity to justice and protection. Her remedies, infused with both medicinal and spiritual potency, helped heal the sick and bring peace to troubled souls. The Queen of Influence Marie Laveau wasn’t just a spiritual figure—she was a powerful and respected leader. People from all walks of life, including politicians and law enforcement, sought her guidance. She was known to intercede on behalf of prisoners, helping many avoid wrongful execution. Her ability to command respect in a deeply divided society was nothing short of remarkable. Though often depicted as a woman of mystery, her true magic was her compassion, wisdom, and ability to empower her community. A Legacy That Endures Marie Laveau’s name has become legendary, inspiring countless books, movies, and even TV series. But her real-life impact was far more profound than any fictional portrayal. Even after her passing in 1881, her tomb in St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 remains one of the most visited spiritual sites in New Orleans. Visitors still leave offerings, hoping to receive her blessings.
