4. Talkin' about Talisman

One of my FAVORITE topics - talisman! I discuss what a talisman is, ways you can make a talisman and where in your life you can use your talisman - as well as some historical examples and my own personal favorites.

Mentioned in this episode:

Planetary Archetypes (cosmologist Richard Tarnas explains these wonderfully) 

Phsychologist Carl Jung 

My Embroidered Talisman course, Magic Threads

Turkmen talisman embroidery (scroll down about halfway for the description of a "Doga")

Japanese talisman embroidery, or "Semamori"

Order my book, Mystical Stitches (+ international option)

Thanks so much for listening, I look forward to next weeks episode when I interview one of my oldest bestest friends, Mekenzie Kay, an elementary school art teacher who has taken the past year to teach herself to make pillows out of recycled denim.
