This class is designed to help you unlock the methodology of the cards\, so you can learn the system and begin working with them more quickly. We will explore the history\, art and spiritual basis of the cards\, and then dive into their basic structure and meanings. By the end of this class you will: \n\nLearn how your deck is organized and why (major and minor arcana\, the four suits\, the court cards).\nUnderstand how the elements are expressed through the cards and how they can help you interpret them.\nLearn how the numbers on the cards connect deeply to their meaning.\nReceive useful spreads\, and determine which to use.\nEstablish a reading practice (shuffling\, laying out the cards\, asking questions\, delivering interpretations).\nTroubleshoot your readings.\nReceive study materials to take home.\n\nOnce you learn the methodology of the Tarot\, it becomes much easier to understand and commit the meaning of the cards to memory. This class will set you up for greater success as you grow as a reader. \nYou will need to bring a traditional Tarot deck modeled on either the Smith Waite or the Thoth Tarot decks. Registrants to this class receive a 15% discount on any decks purchased for this class. \nAbout the instructor: As a student of the hermetic arts for over 25 years\, Ami has a deep background in the Western Esoteric Tradition. Her study and practice includes\, yoga and the Tantric tradition\, Kabbalah\, alchemy\, Tarot and ceremonial magick. She is well-versed in many traditions\, however\, and holds the belief that ones spiritual practice can be an important part of their overall wellness. The Tarot is her favorite tool of divination.
