On this podcast episode, it’s with so much honor and excitement that Jeff Hinshaw finally gets to share with you that he is the author of the Lonely Planet Travel Tarot. This project weaves together a deep study of the Tarot with reverence for the beauty of our planet. Each of the 78 cards is paired with a different location in the world. It’s been over a year of research, writing and teamwork. The deck is illustrated in collaboration with the brilliant Studio Muti. The Travel Tarot is now officially open for pre-order and will be released in the U.S. on February 17, 2026, which makes this deck an Aquarius Sun with a Pisces Moon (quite fitting for such an expansive deck celebrating humanity). Also, on this podcast episode, Jeff Hinshaw is joined by cosmic sibling Joél Andres Collier of Doll Muscle. Formed in New Orleans in 2017 with composer/producer Bodhi Landa, Doll Muscle creates cathartic dream-pop anthems lush with synths, post-punk grit, and shimmering soundscapes. Their work explores queer love at the boundaries of gender and consciousness, offering listeners a warm, visionary sound that feels both intimate and otherworldly. Together they listen to Five Songs: Here We Are, Wizard, Steeplechase, XO, Allways, and Our Mother. We invite you to bring out your tarot deck and meditate with the cards that came up in our discussion: Judgement, Justice, Queen of Pentacles, Queen of Swords, and the 7 of Cups. We also explore planetary archetypes and Zodiac signs that weave throughout Doll Muscle’s songs, including: Chiron, Neptune, Pluto, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius.
