For centuries, the tarot has intrigued and fascinated people with its imagery and visual cues to another world. Some claim the deck holds the secret mystical mysteries of the Egyptians; other marvel at its insight into the human psyche. Many praise it for its ability to peer into the future. But what exactly is the tarot? Where does it come from? How can we use it in our daily life?

By the end of the class, students should be comfortable reading tarot and continue to explore the deeper mysteries of divination.
