Tarot 101 is a beginner-friendly introduction to tarot, designed to help you understand the cards and trust your own intuitive responses. Join Fern of Planted Nowhere for an insightful, interactive introduction to reading tarot. If you're curious about tarot, want a deeper tarot experience, or simply want help trusting your intuition, this is the perfect place to start. No previous tarot experience required. During this interactive class, Fern will introduce the foundational structure of tarot, including the Major and Minor Arcana, the four suits, the elements, numbers, and court cards. (You don't need to memorize every tarot card before you can begin reading.) You'll also explore how intuitive information can appear through feelings, images, physical sensations, inner knowing, and personal associations. Workshop includes a take-home PDF of all information covered. There is no wrong way to read tarot, there is only your way. Tarot 101 is not about one rigid method. It's designed to give you a strong foundation, while helping you develop a personal, intuitive relationship with the cards. Tarot 101 is part of the Sunday Sunshine series at Playground Art + Coffee.
