Years Of Wisdom: The Tarot & Women's Stories Of Growth & Empowerment
A thoughtful intersection of tarot and feminist scholarship, Years of Wisdom: The Tarot & Women's Stories of Growth & Empowerment presents a rich tapestry of women's lived experiences through the lens of tarot symbolism and narrative. Written by Jenny Higgins, PhD, this work chronicles how women across different walks of life have drawn upon the archetypal imagery of tarot cards to process personal transformation, reclaim agency, and articulate their journeys of self-discovery. With an academic yet accessible tone, Higgins argues that tarot serves not merely as a divinatory tool, but as a powerful framework for storytelling, reflection, and empowerment. The book weaves together qualitative research and personal narratives, illustrating the profound ways in which spiritual and symbolic practices intersect with gender identity and psychological growth. It stands as a compelling contribution to both women's studies and the broader conversation around alternative pathways to self-awareness and healing.
