History Lessons for Misanthropes


Feb 2, 2021

In this episode we tell the story of Pamela Colman Smith, the illustrator of the Rider-Waite (Smith) tarot deck in 1909.  She was a bohemian illustrator and author in New York and London, as well as a member of the Golden Dawn.  Through naming the tarot deck after the publisher and author of the instructions, Pamela was effectively removed from occult history.
