Hello beautiful blog readers!
I am so excited to ease back into my the Where We Are Now series from my time at Little Red Tarot. If you’re new to my blog or tarot writing in general, Little Red Tarot (or LRT) was a beautiful femme forward space where tons of queer, BIPOC, and disabled tarot & witchcraft writers not only got our start but made a very sweet little internet home together to discuss all of our favorite topics like social justice, witchcraft, tarot & the intersections therein.
Please note that this is A Project. There were a lot of us, and some of us are hard to track down. I know for sure I have interviews with Luke Dani Blue, Sabrina Scott, Siobhan & Cathou coming and I’m going to keep chipping away at getting the rest of us on here too. You can see my previous interviews with Beth, our founder & Siri, my dear friend and therefore the easiest interview to snag at the links behind their names.
Today though, we are focusing on one of my favorite people on the planet: Asali Earthwork! If you don’t Asali I am sad for you! They are truly a visionary in this field. They run the long running and critically important Tarot of the QTPOC project right on her website! Asali is also funny, and kind, and just an absolute joy to be in community with. In addition to Tarot of the QTPOC I strongly recommend reading everything they have ever written! Her work is gentle, kind AND full of strength and power.
Anyway, I could go on for 20 million years about what a gift Asali is, and I probably will! In the meantime, here they are in their own words.
HI ASALI, WELCOME TO THE BLOG! LET’S DIVE RIGHT IN. WHAT DID YOU WRITE AT LITTLE RED TAROT?
Ritual & Honey column, Tarot of the QTPOC Deck Reviews & Interviews
HOW HAS YOUR PRACTICE/WORK CHANGED/SHIFTED SINCE LRT?
I took a step back from my shop, though I hope to return sometime this summer. I’m still engaged in the #TarotoftheQTPOC project and have been excited to see so many new decks pop up that reflect us all. I have to say, Little Red Tarot’s blog and shop has been a home to this project in many different ways. I still write at my site, and you can always find me on Instagram or Twitter mucking around and connecting to magical folks.
ARE YOU OPEN FOR READINGS OR LESSONS RIGHT NOW?
I’m currently not open for readings, though if I should ever return to that it will be at my website at asaliearthwork.com. I am also happy to offer my blog as a space of learning and I try to make the more informative posts (about tarot & herbs mostly), beginner and intermediate friendly.
WHERE ELSE CAN WE FIND YOU?
I’m being more intentional about ensuring that the bulk of my work is not on social media but on my website, so find me at asaliearthwork.com
Thanks so much Asali! Always such a blessing to chat with you.
