Introduction to Tarot
Required Material:
Rider Waite Tarot Deck
Tarot Plain and Simple by
Anthony Louis
These should be available
in any book store, but we will gladly order them in for you as well.
In this beginner level
class we will study the Rider Waite Deck using both the traditional
definitions and our own intuition. We will learn popular spreads, but
students will also be encouraged to design their own.
At the end of the 10
weeks, Shifting Sands will host a mini “Psychic Fair” at the
shop. You will be able to practice your skills, and your
friends/family will be able to enjoy a reading for $5. After the
readings, we will pool the money together and go for lunch or dinner
as a class.
This will be a fun,
informative 10 weeks. Sign up today!
“The tarot is a tool for
awakening our intuitive faculties, for putting us in touch with our
inner world. It is a metaphorical system that leads us on the path of
the mythical hero, a path of adventure and self-discovery. By tapping
into the archetypal symbols on the Tarot cards as they relate to our
everyday concerns, we can explore our personal mythologies and more
clearly see the realities of our lives.
...The tarot is a device
for meditation, reflection, contemplation, problem analysis,
brainstorming, decision clarification, stimulation of intuition,
self-understanding, spiritual growth, and divination. The cards of
the Tarot allow us to tap into a dimension of the universe that may
otherwise be inaccessible. They are not necessarily predictive but
often turn out to be so. They will always offer an alternative view
and a new perspective on the problems in our lives.”
