Reliability Tier2
The Wild Hunt's 2017 news coverage of Doreen Virtue's renunciation of her tarot and oracle work, the middle tier reflecting contemporaneous reporting from a dedicated, long running modern Pagan community news outlet with a named editorial staff, rather than an independent newspaper of record. Cite it for the documented fact and community reaction to Virtue's conversion, not for theological interpretation of it. NotesThe Wild Hunt is an established Pagan-community news site with an editorial process, publishing on 2017-09, consulted 2026-08-11, reporting Doreen Virtue's 2017 public renunciation of tarot and her own earlier New Age work after converting to conservative Christianity, and the American Tarot Association's public criticism of that renunciation. Used here only for the documented fact of the renunciation and the dispute it caused, not for any judgement on Radleigh Valentine himself, who is not its subject.
