The Arcane Dames Podcast will no longer be releasing new episodes. We are sad to announce the end of this project before completing all 78 cards of the tarot, and we both still have an incredible amount of love and gratitude for our listeners. Mel and Alyssa will continue to share our tarot knowledge & spiritual journeys on our own platforms, and we hope you can continue to follow-along and keep learning with us on our separate journeys.
