Why read it?
1 author picked The Hoodoo Tarot as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The Hoodoo Tarot feels like a spiritual history lesson woven into divination. It doesn’t just guide, it educates, honors, and channels the spirit of rootwork and Ancestral practices of the African American South.

From Nyasha's list on card decks for deepening ancestral connection.
