S01E02 – Cartomancy and Sortilege with T. Susan Chang
As the entire Internet already knows, T. Susan Chang has incredible oracular powers, so when I tell you that she's here on the second episode of the fledgling Arnemancy Podcast, it's probably a sign that we're building great things. Susan is co-host of the incredible Fortune's Wheelhouse podcast and the author of Tarot Correspondences: Ancient Secrets for Everyday Readers, released by Llewellyn at the end of 2018. She is a Tarot expert, and the kind of Tarot expert that an uncanny grasp on how the cards connect to each other and the complex web of correlations and associations that tie the cards into nearly every other aspect of Western occultism.
We dive into everything, from Agrippa to the Picatrix decans to planetary Tarot associations to Kabbalah to working magic with Tarot. We talk about psychology, divination, sortilege, and symbolism. When I invited Susan on the show, I promised that we could go full Tarot nerd, and we did. Full Tarot nerd.
Susan also answered listener questions, including a great explanation of The Devil card. We also get into sewing, and discuss my creation of a magical robe.
Buy Susan's book and listen to her podcast. If you like Tarot, you will love her work.

S01E01 – Cartomancy with Alexx Bollen
Introducing the Arnemancy Podcast! Following on the heels of My Alchemical Bromance, this podcast explores esotericism, Tarot, magic, and the occult. In the inaugural episode, I visit Alexx Bollen of the Alexxcast in his foam-walled podcasting dungeon to talk Tarot. I do my first ever reading using Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot and the results are surprising!
(You'll have to excuse us as we figure out some microphone stuff right at the beginning that I forgot to edit out.)

MAB EP 46 – An Exploration of the Soul
In this episode of My Alchemical Bromance, Erik explores various interpretations and explanations of the soul in the wake of the death of his 19 year-old cat, Kublai Khan. This episode is personal, but hopefully it provides food for thought.
