Tarot with Bonnie and Peter

In this 78th episode of Tarot with Bonnie and Peter , Bonnie and Peter sit down for their final episode together for now. After so many conversations about life, tarot, and everything in between, this episode is a look back at what this podcast has meant to both of them, and a heartfelt thank-you to everyone who has listened, watched, shared, commented, and pulled cards alongside them. Peter share...

Tarot sometimes gets a reputation for being heavy. Death, the Tower, the Devil — the cards everyone's heard of are usually the scary ones (because those are the cards that show up in movies right before something bad happens).  With the summer solstice landing this week — the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere — Bonnie and Peter decided it was time to give the light and joyful card...

We all have that one card. The one that keeps showing up no matter what you ask. In tarot, we call these stalker cards — and in this episode of Tarot with Bonnie and Peter, we're getting personal about ours. Stalker cards are persistent for a reason. These are the cards that act as mirrors, reflecting back something we haven't fully seen yet — a pattern, a lesson, an invitation we keep sid...

Spring is the season of fresh starts, new beginnings, and seeds we may not see blooming quite yet. In this episode of  Tarot with Bonnie and Peter , we explore how the tarot can help us understand the energy of spring as a time of new beginnings, and also as a season of patience, faith, action, and growth. We explore tarot cards that carry strong spring energy and the questions they invite us to c...

In this episode, Peter and Bonnie have an honest conversation about reading tarot for yourself—how to make self-readings feel clearer and more supportive, especially when you’re still building confidence. We explore simple ways to create space and intention before a reading, and we offer encouragement for anyone who hasn’t started yet because they don’t feel “ready.” You don’t need to know every m...

In this episode, Peter and Bonnie talk about the journey through the darker, more difficult terrain of the Major Arcana—and what it can look like to move through those initiatory moments toward something brighter on the other side. We explore the arc and energy of Death , The Devil , and The Tower —not as “bad” cards, but as powerful markers of transformation. From there, we shift into the emergin...

In this episode, Peter and Bonnie talk about something that can make tarot feel much more accessible: the difference between the message of a card and the meaning we assign to it. We share how easy it is to go straight into “figuring it out” when we pull a card—searching for the correct interpretation, leaning on keywords, or overthinking what the card is supposed to mean. We also talk about anoth...

In this episode, Peter starts us off with a few reflections on Aquarius season and its connection primarily to The Star —a card that speaks to healing, hope, and vulnerability. That naturally led us into a conversation about the season we’re actually in right now (at least here in the Northern Hemisphere) - the middle of winter. If you’re feeling tired—still in hibernation mode—that’s completely n...

After a bit of a break in December, Bonnie and Peter are back to ring in the new year with a brand new episode of Tarot with Bonnie and Peter. In this episode, we explore the energetic themes of 2026 through the lens of tarot. As we step into a Wheel of Fortune year (10) —which also reduces to The Magician (1) —we reflect on how to navigate the new year with intention, and clarity. We discuss what...

In this week’s episode, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Marilyn Shannon—longtime tarot and Lenormand reader and the founder of the Kingston Tarot & Lenormand Conference in Kingston, Ontario. Marilyn shared how tarot first called to her at the age of 12, and how it’s been a guiding thread ever since. We talked about how her personal practice has evolved over the years and what it means...

As we head into the holiday stretch, the sun will be shifting into Sagittarius, bringing with it big energy: expansive, fiery, truth-seeking, and a little bit untamed. In this week’s episode of Tarot with Bonnie and Peter , we explore how Sagittarius season collides with the chaos of holiday season overwhelm—and how we can use tarot to find our centre. We reflect on the archetypes and cards associ...

We’re in the midst of Scorpio season—and transformation is in the air. In this week’s episode of Tarot with Bonnie and Peter , we explore the deep, powerful undercurrents of Scorpio energy. Known for its intensity, mystery, and capacity for rebirth, Scorpio season invites us to dig beneath the surface, face the truth, and let go of what no longer serves. It’s about reclaiming our power, even if th...

This Halloween season, we just couldn’t stop at one Halloween inspired episode—so we’re back with another round of magical, mysterious tarot spreads to help you reflect, reveal, and reconnect. In this episode, we each share a Halloween-inspired spread designed to stir the senses and speak to the parts of ourselves that are often quietly mysterious. Peter's Spread: Behind the Veil Peter brings...

What do you need to let go of—and what are you ready to welcome in?

We begin by reflecting on the recent Full Moon in Aries , with its fiery energy and connection to the Emperor card in the tarot. To deepen the conversation, we each pulle...

We all have our tarot deck dealbreakers. You know the feeling—you’re flipping through a deck, curious and excited… and then you see it. A card that stops you in your tracks—for better or worse. Sometimes it only takes one card to make us fall in love... or put the deck right back on the shelf. In this episode of Tarot with Bonnie and Peter, we talk about the cards that speak to us, the ones that f...

What happens when tarot cards show up upside down? In this week’s episode, we turn the deck on its head—literally—and explore one of tarot’s most debated topics: Should you read reversals? Some readers swear by them. Others ignore them entirely. We’re here to unpack both perspectives, share how we personally work with reversals, and offer some guidance for interpreting them in meaningful, intuitiv...

What do you get when a wide-eyed wanderer and a truth-teller walk into a dinner party? The final episode of our Dinner with the Majors series—and it’s full of surprises. In this final chapter, we go out with a bang—and a few emotional curveballs. Peter steps into the energy of The Fool , and reminds us that sometimes you just have to leap, trust, and enjoy the ride. (Yes, even if you're not su...

What happens when you sit down to dinner with two archetypes that seem like opposites—one clearing space, the other creating structure? In this week’s Dinner with the Majors , we explore themes of release, endings and the sacred emptiness that makes way for new beginnings in the Death card and the power of boundaries, routines and building solid foundations that help us grow with The Emperor.  We...

This week’s Dinner with the Majors brings two very different archetypes to the table: the untamed energy of The Devil and the deep, intuitive knowing of The High Priestess . Peter pulls The Devil and leans all the way in—talking about the art of indulgence, letting go of self-imposed pressure, and yes, booking a trip to Vegas (obviously)!!! Bonnie pulls The High Priestess and invites us into the q...

What happens when tradition meets quiet courage, and both stay for dinner? In this week’s Dinner with the Majors episode, Peter channels the sacred presence of The Hierophant, while Bonnie steps into the quiet resilience of Strength.
