Many moons ago, Tarot called me.
That is the only way I can describe it. the symbols beckoned me, confounded me, intrigued me, haunted me...Through the years, I picked up the Tarot, put it down again. I read in my closet, read when no one was home. I referenced books, hanging on the words of other Tarot writers and thinkers. I read about the history and the artwork. Certainly, I never considered myself a Tarot reader.
But the images were always part of who I was...at 18, a reader told me I had Empress energy, that I would always be the matriarch of my family. I have never forgotten what it was like to be part of the Tarot, to imagine myself in the Major Arcana, to embody the Empress. But for years, I doubted and second-guessed my own knowledge of the Tarot's words, symbols, and images. Then, after beginning to open to Spirit, I actually owned the fact that I had been reading for THIRTY years without trusting my own interpretations. I WAS STILL ON-BOOK, as I call it. (Still reading with a tarot book open next to me.)
So, one day I just put it away.
I put books down, and began trusting myself. Then, like a wind blowing through my ear, speaking the language of the Tarot, the cards came to life. The Empress, the Magician, the Fool danced together in a scene I understood. The cards morphed and changed, and became my own symbols. I developed my own relationship with the cards. I disagreed with some of my beloved tarot writers, and developed my own meaning for cards. My psychic, intuitive, and empathic abilities emerged from that one act of trusting myself to know what I know. This is the journey I bring to my Tarot classes. Not of the all-knowing tarot reader, but of one who struggled to understand and trust myself.
I have taught Tarot since 2013 with different iterations of this class. I bring these questions to you:
Have you been drawn to Tarot?
Do you have a Tarot deck and don't know where to start?
Have you been reading a while and still not confident enough to read for others?
Do you want to deepen your own relationship to the cards and to Spirit?
I am a professional tarot reader and I will guide you through Tarot's rich symbolism and spiritual language. The Complete Tarot is a class for beginners and also for those who want to deepen their relationship to the cards. I teach you how to use Tarot as a tool to listen and communicate with Spirit, shed light on the energy. We go through each card as well as learn layouts, techniques, and tools for understanding the Tarot. My Tarot Workbook--the Complete Tarot--is included in the price of full series.

How it works
In this class, you will receive your workbook at the start of class. You will need to purchase a Rider-Waite deck. (And no, I do not waver on that point.) I want us all to be on the same page for learning Tarot, since different decks have different interpretations.
Your self-study course is self-directed. You will be given access to all the classes when you purchase and can go through them at your own pace. I will add you to the Class Portal, so please allow some time (1-2 days) before getting your invitation. You have lifetime access to the videos and materials. You will also be assigned journal work, which will be all about reading Tarot. I will not grade or look at your journal. This is strictly for your own growth as a tarot reader. Each week, we will learn a new layout, which will be your journal work--to practice your layout at home for yourself. To get the full potential and experience of this class, I suggest thinking of this class as an immersion class. The journal work immerses you every day in the Tarot. As I journal my tarot readings every day, I assign and encourage my students to do the same.
Cost
Your investment for this course is $325 for the distance course. If you already have a workbook, awesome. (Choose w/out workbook option in the checkout.) If you cannot pay in one lump sum, I have a two month or three month payment plan. Please note it works out to be $350 rather than $325 to cover the fees and loan (this is essentially a personal loan from me to you.) For the two-month payment plan, you will be charged $175 at check out. Then invoiced next month for $175. For three-month, you will be charged $125 at check out, and then invoiced $125 for the next two months. If you do not pay the invoice within a week, access to the materials will be revoked. If these options still do not work out, please contact me at angie@themoonandstone.com to work out a payment plan. (BTW, I do love to do trades or work bartering.)
