This week onThe Tarot Diagnosis Podcast, I’m wading into the intersection of tarot and cognition with Dr. Thomas Brooks, a research psychologist, educator, and tarot enthusiast. Together, we explore how tarot fosters cognitive flexibility, promotes self-reflection, and helps us hold complex dualities.
We discuss the power of projection, the role of archetypes like The Emperor, and how pattern recognition can guide deeper insights. Thomas also shares his journey of blending tarot with academia, how this tool can reframe our thinking, and why he doesn’t currently read tarot for himself.
Don’t miss this thought-provoking conversation about tarot as a cognitive tool!
You can find Dr. Thomas Brooks on Instagram@impulsegnometarot, or check out his podcast,The Psychosocial Distancing Podcast.
