About the author
Lindsay Mack writes about tarot as a tool for emotional processing rather than fortune-telling. Their book Tarot for the Wild Soul: A Trauma-Informed Approach for Growth, Healing, and Grounding in the Present Moment, published by Running Press Adult, lays out the Soul Tarot method, in which each card is read as a mirror for present-moment experience rather than a prediction of what is to come. The companion Soul Tarot deck and guidebook, from RP Studio, puts that same approach into a physical set of cards, giving readers who already own the book a matching deck to work through its exercises. Both titles are pitched at an inclusive readership and frame tarot as a language for self-reflection, grounding, and working through difficult feelings, rather than as a system for foretelling events. Readers drawn to Mack's books are typically looking for a gentler, therapeutic entry point into tarot, more concerned with processing the present than divining the future.
