LIVE EACH CARD IN A 78-DAY MAGIC CAPSULE
There are 78 landscapes within you that long to come alive. 78 tarot card countries that are calling for your human touch. Join astrologer and tarot reader Bess Matassa for a transformational immersion in the entirety of your deck—where you’ll learn to love up on every card, all set to the rhythm of astrology.
On each day of our mystical “retreat,” you’ll walk with the wildness of a single card. Instead of an anxious AM phone scroll or spin through your to-dos, you’ll start each day exactly as you were born to: steeped in magic, mystery, and mythos. And by nightfall, you’ll return to your inner altar having fully embodied a tarot card archetype—ready to seal your psychic convo with it through sweet devotion.
Imagine: your only mandate for 78 entire days will be MAGIC.

Each of the 78 cards of the tarot bears the imprint of an astrological essence. In 78 Days of Magic, you’ll tour them through their zodiac sign “families”: from the Emperor’s big bold bang of beingness in Aries, all the way to Pisces’ misty Moon card mood ring.
If you’re brand new to astrology or tarot, you’ll taste each sign and card archetype in a style that’s vivid and accessible—trying them on for size through enjoyment and embodiment, instead of mind-numbing memorization. And if you’re a seasoned stargazer or card shark, you’ll gain even greater fluency in these mystical languages by playing with new facets of each archetype’s prism.
By the end of your 78-day voyage, you’ll possess a complete suite of archetypes that you can summon in any life situation—letting the tarot move through you.
