From Diana: over a hundred pages of lecture handouts, personal discussion of homework assignments, follow-up support from Diana on an informal basis after the course is completed. There is also opportunity to carry on for an intermediate course. This course teaches traditional tarot. 
 
Intermediate Course in Tarot

This course focuses on the Major Arcana: how these have been interpreted and expressed in the work of Western esotericists, and their use as a meditative and magical tool in spiritual and self-development.
  • focus on traditional (e.g. Marseilles) and Rider-Waite-Smith iconography
  • exploration of Western Hermetic and alchemical philosophy as portrayed by and in the major cards
  • correspondences in Kabbalah and Western astrology
  • exploration of the influence of classical and Western mythology and symbols in the design of the cards
  • exploration of Crowley's philosophy of Thelema as portrayed by the major cards
  • practical use of the cards for meditation and wisdom readings
 

Tarot Advanced Course

Advanced Tarot courses are run as seminars or workshops, with subjects evolving in from the needs and interests of participants. Any advanced course is a tailor-made learning experience, so there is no pre-arranged course outline for this level.  If you are interested in any particular aspect of Tarot, please get in touch.


Diana Taylor is in the process of looking into teaching online classes, in which students will receive teaching in real time in a virtual classroom.  If you are interested in participating in such a class, contact Diana.
