This list of (mostly) Esoteric Christian Tarot & Magic resources is by no means exhaustive. If you know of a work that belongs on this list, please let me know! I’ll be adding more resources as I find and work with them. Some of the books mentioned below are more exoteric but most veer more toward the esoteric/metaphysical and even the occult. Not all the books listed are specifically about the Tarot or Magic but they all relate on some level to the deep wisdom found within the teachings of Yeshua and can help build a practice that is steeped in the Word.

As for the Blog Posts (click to scroll) about Christian Tarot and Magic, please note that my views are evolving continuously as I recover from religious trauma and the concomitant, insidious toxic shame.
Books and online resources/courses
- The Bible (you can find an uncopyrighted online version HERE)
- A New New Testament by Hal Tussig
- The Gnostic Bible: Revised and Expanded Edition
- The New Oxford Annotated Bible with Apocrypha: New Revised Standard Version
- Discovering Christian Witchcraft by Sara Raztresen and Emyle D. Prata. Other than the Bible this is the first–extremely well-researched!–book I would recommend since it sets the stage and explains why any objections against doing divination or having a Christian witchcraft practice are null and void. However, please note that I do not agree that Kabbalah is a ‘closed practice.’
