  Cassandra Snow's groundbreaking Queering the Tarot helped change the shape of tarot discourse for scores of new readers to reclaim this ancient practice in their own way. Tarot in Other Words opens doors for these brilliant tarotists, offering unique insights and concepts for tarot readers of all levels. Queerness will be a thematic thread running throughout the project, with individual essays tackling a variety of topics that expand on that theme in new and compelling ways. 
   
   
    
  Presented in two parts, the anthology comprises ten essays that shine a light on the tarot from multiple queer perspectives. Understanding queerness—and why it matters in tarot—can teach all of us so much about not just gender and sexuality but also how and why we should liberate ourselves in the first place. These essays on queerness show us that who we are is right, beautiful, and sacred. Queerness teaches us to honor differences in others and understand that what is good for one may not be good for all. There is a historical basis for why tarot and queerness go hand in hand: for a lot of cultures, such as the Romani and other oppressed groups forced into nomadic lifestyles, fortune-telling using cards and other tools was and is to this day survival work. This is the same reason we see so many queer, BIPOC, and disabled people take up tarot in the US.

  Churchill's War - How Winston...

  Winston Churchill is remembered as one of history’s most formidable leaders, a man whose unwavering resolve and stirring oratory inspired a beleaguered nation to withstand its darkest hour. Rising to prominence during one of humanity’s most perilous times, Churchill’s leadership during World War II not only shaped the fate of Britain but left an indelible mark on the global landscape. His life and career encapsulate the qualities of resilience, vision, and adaptability that are crucial during moments of profound crisis.  
    
  Born into an aristocratic family in 1874, Churchill's early life was one of privilege, yet his path to greatness was anything but guaranteed. Despite academic struggles and initial failures, he demonstrated remarkable tenacity, carving out a career as a soldier, journalist, and eventually a politician. His varied experiences—whether charging on horseback in colonial campaigns or reporting from the frontlines—imbued him with a deep understanding of courage and strategy, traits that would serve him well in the years to come.  
    
  Churchill’s rise to the role of wartime Prime Minister was far from linear. By the late 1930s, his political career seemed to be in decline. His outspoken criticism of appeasement policies and his relentless warnings about Adolf Hitler’s ambitions rendered him an isolated figure, often dismissed as a relic of an earlier age. Yet, as Europe hurtled toward war, Churchill’s foresight and defiance became assets too valuable to ignore. In 1940, as Nazi Germany’s forces swept across the continent, Churchill was called upon to lead.
