THE TAROT: AN ANCIENT WISDOM TOOL
These classes will teach you to use this ancient wisdom tool for self-understanding, for exploring your life path, for making decisions and for understanding how other people’s actions affect you. Each class will end with individual readings so we can apply what we have learned. It is important to choose a deck that “speaks” to you. Many decks can be explored on-line by asking for Tarot Images.
