Monthly Tarot Classes. Please contact me for more information!

I teach 3 four-week classes which take the beginning student through the first three levels of certification through the Tarot Certification Board. My class is designed to have you reading cards after the first class. I believe the most effective way to learn the cards is to connect them organically to your life. Through a series of exercises and games, you absorb the meaning of the cards painlessly, without the burden of memorization. Cost for a each 4 week group of classes is $150.00 and includes all teaching materials.

		THE TAROT CRAWL

		EFFECTIVE CURRICULUM WRITING
		The idea is to be prepared with a plan for honoring the diversion and eventually getting back to the main path. For example, one of the first activities of "The Fool" class would be to talk about personal foolish journeys the students have made.

		DEALING WITH DEATH
		Depending on the deck you use for your readings, the thirteenth card of the Major Arcana offers even the uninvolved client a moment of pause as it is turned. Even though physical death is only one of the many possible definitions for this card, in a client's mind, it is the definition they first expect.

		IT'S ONLY A GAME

		THE GRAMMAR OF TAROT
		The source of the basic words of a reading is obvious to most of us. We discover key words for each of the 78 cards. The only stipulation I add is to tell my students that they will eventually use these words to create the paragraphs that make up their readings, so I encourage them not to accept the first word they happen across.

		USING PERSONAL CARDS
		Before I begin the reading, I hand the 16 Court Cards to the client and ask them to pick the one card which they feel represents them at this point in their life. I request that they ignore the gender of the cards and respond only to the emotions emitted by the cards.

		THE STAR WARS CONNECTION
		The hero's journey is something we all experience on a smaller level (one would hope) a multitude of times in our lifetime. Each step of the way is easier if we study the footsteps of those who have gone before. The concrete footsteps appear in films such as "Star Wars", any western or any type of underdog-kid/team-wins-the-Olympics story. On a more esoteric level, the footsteps exist for us in the 22 cards of the Major Arcana.

		Intuitive Spread Design - A First Hand Experience
		I wrote this article, not to promote my own ego-spread, (though you are more than welcome to use this spread) but to encourage other readers to follow their own intuition if there “feels” like a better way to design a spread.
