Description
A groundbreaking approach to the practice of divination.
Historically, fortune-tellers have always stood on the margins of society and been villainized by the Christo-colonial powers that view divination as competition. The Modern Fortune-Teller's Field Guide takes a contemporary and engaged approach to divination, with a strong focus on social responsibility. Because fortune-tellers can see the world as it is, they serve as a threat to structures that benefit from secrecy.
The Modern Fortune-Teller's Field Guide is an essential guide for anyone seeking theory and history alongside divinatory knowledge. Though anyone today can pick up a pack of tarot cards or begin casting bones, fortune-tellers have a responsibility in taking up that work to not only consider the forebears who suffered for that art but also to understand the systems of oppression that impact our clients. We must understand that spiritually bypassing a client's reality is not only ineffective but also cruel.

About the Author
Tom Benjamin is your friendly neighborhood fortune-teller. From a childhood terror of tarot to a reader and teacher with twenty-plus years of experience, Tom's aim is to help seekers get the answers they need to all of life's puzzles and to help students find their unique voices as card slingers. Through popular YouTube channel and online courses and workshops, as well as the independently published Tarot on Earth and Your Tarot Toolkit, he shares tips, techniques, and even some affectionate slandering of long-beloved dogmas, in the belief that finding your own path is the only way to grow-whether you're a client or a student.
