What we’re about
- Tarot as a Spiritual Journey, Not Fortune Telling. Bring Your Own Experience, Not Authority.
The group frames tarot primarily as a tool for inner work, self reflection, and spiritual development rather than prediction or external advice. We speak from personal insight, intuition, and lived experience, not from fixed doctrine, expertise, or “correct” interpretations. - The Cards as Portals Into the Unconscious. Describe What You See Before What You Know.
Tarot images are treated as symbolic doorways that reveal what the conscious mind resists seeing. A tarot reading is a way to access one’s own deeper layers of meaning, intuition, and psychological truth. When working with a card, begin with your own perception of the image. Traditional meanings may be referenced later, but they never override personal insight. - The Value of Personal Interpretation Over Doctrine. Treat the Cards as Mirrors, Not Oracles.
Following the teaching style of Mary Greer, participants are encouraged to describe what they see in the card before learning any traditional meaning. This cultivates intuitive reading and personal insight. We approach tarot as a reflective tool for inner work, not as a predictive system or a source of external answers. - The Tarot Reading Exists Only in the Moment. Honor the Present Moment.
A reading is understood as a temporary symbolic world that dissolves once the moment passes. The cards do not “remember” your story; they create a new one each time. Each reading is unique to the moment in which it occurs. We avoid projecting past interpretations or future expectations onto the cards. - Major Arcana = Mythic Cycles; Minor Arcana = Daily Life. Allow Multiple Interpretations to Coexist
A useful perspective that will help focus understanding and develop a common interpretive schema is to think of the Major Arcana as reflecting deep psychological or mythic processes, while the Minor Arcana illuminate everyday relational and emotional patterns. Numbers on the cards can reveal long term patterns or cycles in one’s life, helping readers recognize recurring themes across decades.
This interpretive overview is consistent with almost every traditional method of reading tarot cards, but it is not a fixed or ridged system, and the cards themselves do not say how they should be read or interpreted. There is no single “right” meaning. Divergent perspectives are welcomed as part of the group’s richness. - Share Vulnerably, Listen Generously
Because tarot often touches on identity, transition, and the unconscious, we cultivate a space of confidentiality, respect, and non judgment. This is not a place to “read for others” in a professional sense. Instead, we explore how the cards illuminate our own inner landscapes. - Tarot as a Companion During Life Transitions
The cards are especially useful during periods of uncertainty, identity shifts, or existential questioning. They tend towards maudlin and can be completely incomprehensible when life seems stable and predictable. Of course, they also pop right back into focus as soon as the unexpected happens, which means, they don’t gather dust! - Meditation + Journaling as Core Practices. Use Journaling and Meditation as Companion Practices to Receive the Benefit of Reading for Yourself.
Rather than “asking the cards for answers,” the recommended practice is to meditate on life events, journal honestly, and then explore which card mirrors the experience. Drawing cards randomly means getting oblique strategy suggestions. Looking at the cards face up and seeing which one resonate with your particular situation is a proactive way of entering into the tarot world. Participants are encouraged (not required) to journal, meditate, or otherwise reflect between meetings to deepen their relationship with the cards. - The Mandala Tarot Akashic Record
Every experienced tarot reader will eventually discover his or her personal system for reading the cards. As a master myself, I have my own synthetic of tarot, hermeticism, Jungian psychology, and shamanic symbolism. It is the system I use to explore life purpose, transition, and spiritual evolution. I share it openly, to inspire, stimulate ideas, and give answers to questions that will advance the craft and set the stage for further inquiry in the discussion group and beyond. - The Group’s Purpose: Shared Exploration, Not Instruction. Participate as Co Creators of the Space
This is not a class with fixed teachings but a circle of inquiry. Each member brings their own experience, curiosity, and spiritual questions, and the group grows through dialogue. This group is a circle of inquiry, not a class. Everyone contributes to the atmosphere, the questions, and the evolving shared understanding.
