Episode notes

Ding-dong, class is IN SESSION! In this episode, Madi takes us on a little survey on the cryptic and mysterious origins of these staples to the occult. We look at where the oldest tarot deck came from, and the MASHcore games played with them. We learn that tea leaf reading is called "tasseomancy" and we love that almost as much as the Victorians did. THEN we dive into the REALLY FREAKING FASCINATING (and ancient) origins of palm reading and leave you with a call to action to support your female palmists!
