Nyasha Williams on Ancestral Awakening, Black Tarot, Decolonizing, and Walking into Your Creative Passions Fully
About this episode
I believe part of unleashing your most powerful magic includes understanding the roots of where and who you came from. Nyasha Williams is an author, activist, tarot deck creator, and creator of many more lanes - her new deck - BLACK TAROT: An Ancestral Awakening Deck and Guidebook - came out last week and is a stunning reclamation of Black spirituality and ancestral connection. Features exclusively Black representations of classic Tarot figures and iconography illustrated by Kimishka Naidoo. In this episode, we talk about why she felt connected with magic since she was young, helping kids tap into theirs - especially through cooking, communing with ancestors, divination tools, the Black Tarot, her process of creation, being a creator of many lanes, walking through your passions fully, and unlearning/decolonizing ourselves from white supremacy + the patriarchy. One of my most valuable and powerful episodes to date. Enjoy Nyasha's magic!
