This announcement has been a long time coming! I am teaming up with my friend Coleman Stevenson of the Dark Exact to teach a new class on Tarot spreads!
When reading tarot and oracle cards, context is everything. A well-designed spread can guide and focus a reading, leading to greater understanding and personal discovery. In this 3-week workshop led by Coleman Stevenson of The Dark Exact and Erik L. Arneson of Arnemancy, we’ll explore what makes a great spread, examine how card meanings shift based on position in different spreads, and practice various methods for constructing our own card layouts. Each participant will have an original spread tested by the class and will be invited to submit completed spreads from the workshop for publication in Volume Three of A Small Collection of Specialized Spreads.
No experience with creating spreads is necessary, but a working knowledge of card reading is strongly suggested. This class will NOT cover reading basics. Each participant will need a tarot deck of their choice for use during class sessions.
- Sundays, February 6, 13, & 20
- 4pm-6pm Pacific Time
- This is an online class offered via Zoom.
