Our Method of Teaching
One of our major goals is to make our subject matter aproachable to anyone. We try and custom taylor our classes as they progress to fit the interest of the students in the class. If there is a topic you are interested in learning do not hesitate to let us know. We use a combination of time tested exercises and techniques, and open discussion. We do lecture but we believe that a student must learn in a way that gets them the best results. Especcially in this Tarot class it is very importand that the student arives at his or her own conclusions about the meanings of the cards. Because of the symbolic nature of tarot it is importand that a connection with those symbols be made within each student. We spend more time allowing the student to discover the meaning of a card than telling the student what the "book" interpretation is.
Learning how to read
Every student is different. Two students given the same art project will rarely produce the same result. In this same way no two people read the tarot in exactly the same manner. It is true that some people are more apt to using tarot in divination than others. The other truth is that the symbolism is archeotypal and universal. If any student is willing to put the time and effort into learning to read tarot we are dedicated to helping them do it. Some people will find it comes quite naturally to understand the basic symbolism, others will find they can understand them but have trouble voicing that understanding. Every student has unique differences, and we try and work with people on a more intimate level because of this. For this reason our class sizes are limited. We want the student to get the most out of every session.
Participation is the greatest key to our classes. We are trained tarot readers. We had to start somewhere and we would be more than happy to help you start on a path full of insite. Tarot has enriched ourt lives and we hope it can do the same for you.
