Ep 59 – Reading Reversals in the Tarot: To Reverse or Not to Reverse

What happens when tarot cards show up upside down? In this week’s episode, we turn the deck on its head—literally—and explore one of tarot’s most debated topics: Should you read reversals?

Some readers swear by them. Others ignore them entirely. We’re here to unpack both perspectives, share how we personally work with reversals, and offer some guidance for interpreting them in meaningful, intuitive ways.

We take a balanced look at both approaches and share how our own relationships with reversals have evolved over time. 

We also share some creative and intuitive ways to work with reversals—seeing them not as "bad" or "wrong," but as invitations to pause, reflect, and listen more closely. 

And of course, we wrap the episode the way we always do—by each pulling a card. But this time, we interpret them reversed. Tune in to hear how Bonnie and Peter approach their cards from two different angles, revealing just how rich and varied reversal work can be.
