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. \n\n\nAbout the instructor: As a student of the hermetic arts for over 25 years\, Ami has a deep background in the Western Esoteric Tradition.
