Diasporic Mysticism, Psychology, & Tarot: A Path to Decolonizing Intuitive Development

Abstract

This review explores the intersection of Tarot, psycho-spirituality, and diasporic struggles. It discusses the Roma people's historical disenfranchisement, how this has impacted Tarot's modern interpretation, and how Tarot may be used as a tool for personal growth and as a practice of resistance against power structures. The paper connects to themes of feminism, intuitive development, Christian empire, pop culture, and capacity of psycho-spiritual movements to foster resilience in the face of oppression. In conclusion, Tarot is proposed as a spiritual tool that fosters healing and connection through creative art and intuitive development through a Jungian psychological lens.
