About the author
Julie Peters writes on tarot, goddess archetypes, and moon-based ritual practice. Her book The Secret Tales of the Tarot: A Journey Through the Hidden Histories of the Tarot Deck, published by Verbena, traces the mythological stories she connects to the imagery of the Major Arcana and the four suits. Maiden, Warrior, Mother, Crone: Divine Feminine Archetypes for Modern Life, published by David & Charles, presents a set of goddess-derived archetypes, including exiles, queens, and warriors, as ways of understanding recurring emotional and life experiences. Her earlier book, The Full Moon Yearbook: A Year of Ritual and Healing Under the Light of the Full Moon, also from David & Charles, organizes rituals and reflections around each month's full moon. Peters's books are aimed at readers interested in accessible, practice-based approaches to tarot, goddess mythology, and lunar ritual rather than academic treatments of these traditions.
