Learn the Tarot

$33/session (Venmo, cash)

$330/full

The goal of this class is for you to learn how to use the Tarot cards for yourself. Tarot offers ways for you to blend your inner and outer realities so you can live your life more creatively. 

We will look at the Metaphors, Symbols, and Archetypes to help you better understand the Tarot and how the Tarot can help you understand yourself better and tap into your inner resources with more confidence. 

We will utilize an interactive workshop format with short weekly “work” activities and readings to help you connect to your cards and their meanings. This class will require the Rider-Waite-Smith deck. You are welcome to borrow a deck during class from Mels Magic if you don't have one for class.
