What we’re about
The ABQ Tarot Tribe turned 15 years old in 2024 and has been growing steadily in membership. Inspired by Carrie Paris (www.carrieparis.com) who created the original Santa Fe Tarot Tribe Meetup Group, and birthed here in Albuquerque in 2009 by Margaret Letzkus and Robert Hahn, since 2013 our Tribe has been under the guidance of Cheryl Ryder. Thanks to all of our members, friends, and sponsors for their loyal support.
Each year we look forward to creating new programs as we delve deeper into our studies of the tarot with all of its mystery and wisdom. Please join us for the explorations of this ancient and sacred divination craft for enlightenment. Membership is free; we only ask reasonable donations for attendance at events in order to cover operational costs.
We promise to continue bringing quality presentations to further our collective knowledge of ourselves and the universe of consciousness.
Namaste, Cheryl Ryder, Organizer

See all- Counting the Omer 2025: Tarot & the Gates of Light by Mark Horn/Netzach-7Link visible for attendees
Special announcement: As a precursor to this study please purchase a copy of Mark Horn's "Tarot and the Gates of Light: A Kabbalistic Path to Liberation." Please read the introductory chapters before the first class. This explains the Kabbalistic underpinnings of the Tarot, the Sephirot and which suits are aligned with which elements. Also follow Mark on Instagram and Facebook as he posts there during the Omer Count.
By special request from our members! We will be sharing our journeys over the next 49 days, the Counting of the Omer.
The kabbalistic tradition of Counting the Omer, daily meditation on each of the 49 days between Pesach (Passover) and Shavuot (Pentecost) begins on the second night of Pesach, which occurs at in 2025 at Sundown on Sunday April 13th, 2025 and ends at Sundown on the 49th day, at Sundown on Saturday May 31st. On the 50th day, The Feast of First Fruits, or Shavuot/Pentecost, begins at Sundown on Sunday May 31st and ends at Sundown Monday June 1st. See the Chapter on Shavuot in Mark's book for the tarot meditation on Shavuot.
We'll be following along in Mark Horn's book as before : "Tarot and the Gates of Light: A Kabbalistic Path to Liberation", and using our tarot cards as illustrations of the kabbalistic principles presented to us from the Sephirot of the Tree of Life, work to throw off our self-imposed chains of bondage (mental-emotional-physical-spiritual), defeat our inner Pharaohs, and make our way to our own sacred mountains whilst preparing to receive a spiritual revelation, each in our own way.
This journey through the tarot minor arcana cards numbers 4-10, in the suit of your choice, corresponds Sephirot 4-10 on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life of the Jewish Tradition (not the Golden Dawn tradition.)
Because I too am counting the Omer for my own personal enlightenment and growth, there is no charge for this series of gatherings.
Here is the 2025 weekly discussion schedule:
Sunday April 13th Chesed/4
Sunday April 20th Gevurah/5
Sunday April 27th Tiphereth/6
Sunday May 4th Netzach/7
Sunday May 11th Hod/8
Sunday May 18th Yesod/9
Sunday May 25th Malkuth/10 and Shavuot preparations
Sunday June 1st Shavuot/Pentecost/Wrap-upI hope you can join us online every week, or from time to time as we Count the Omer this year.
Namaste, Cheryl Ryder, ABQ Tarot Tribe Organizer

- Tarot Cafe' - Let's Talk Anything Tarot!Link visible for attendees
Welcome all Tarot Seekers! Happy 2025!
Sunday afternoons seems to be a good time for some casual tarot talk, so let's get together virtually, on Zoom. Bring your questions about tarot, spreads, decks, etc, etc. We'll have some reading practice too! Different every week, always fun, always informative, always useful!
RSVP to get the Zoom link - it will appear under the meetup dates & time on your screen, usually in the upper right side.
Quick reminder - RSVP as early as you can as Meetup cuts off the ability to sign up about 5 mins before start time.
This is a free meetup, however, should spirit call you to donate something to our operations funds, here are the clickable links:
