When drag star Hunny Blunt first discovered tarot as a child, she had no idea that a simple deck of cards would become the spiritual compass guiding her through life’s wildest transformations. After her childhood deck was thrown away, curiosity eventually led her back to the mystical practice, where she found not just divination, but a roadmap for healing. When she stepped into drag, something magical happened—the spiritual depth of tarot merged with the glamorous artistry of performance, creating a practice where sequins and sacred wisdom coexist. For Hunny, humor is “the acceptance of pain,” a way to transmute life’s hardest moments into power and connection. Through drag and tarot, she’s found her calling as a healer, helping people reclaim control of their lives with a mixture of whimsy and deep introspection.

We talk about how Hunny transformed from a “turtle woman” with green spray-painted hair into a confident performer after Lamplighter Lounge gave her a microphone and the chance to build a platform for new queens, her obsession with The Wizard of Oz books and how the queer-coded characters inform her many drag personas, the intense process of creating Drag Race audition tapes, navigating cyberbullying in the drag scene while building a chosen family, the moment she felt her brother’s death during a performance and how she transmuted that grief into gratitude, the meaning she takes from her favorite tarot card, and her dream of turning the Oz books into movies while giving back to the Lamplighter to make it even more magical.
