Six Weeks of Learning
The Tarot’s Major Arcana!
This class is an homage to the 15 years I have devoted to studying, living, and teaching the Tarot. It is both a technical transmission and a spiritual offering—designed to pass on not only knowledge, but wisdom earned through time, practice, and lived experience.
The Major Arcana as a Psychological Roadmap
Learn the Major Arcana of the Tarot as a psychological roadmap to the Sacred Laws of the Universe and the deeper meaning of life. In this section, the Tarot is approached not merely as a divinatory system, but as a timeless framework for understanding consciousness, human development, and spiritual initiation.
Each Major Arcana card is explored as an archetypal law—revealing how inner psychology, fate, choice, and transformation intersect. Together, these cards form a coherent map of the soul’s evolution, offering insight into why we experience certain challenges, initiations, and awakenings throughout life.
This teaching reframes the Fool’s Journey as a living philosophy: one that helps you recognize patterns, decode life experiences, and align more consciously with purpose, meaning, and universal intelligence.
“It created a true sense of connection and community — every class became a light in my life.” – Brooke L.
Topics Covered Include:
The Major Arcana as a Map of the Soul’s Journey
An in-depth exploration of the Major Arcana as an initiatory path of spiritual development. We will examine each card as a living archetype, tracing the soul’s movement from innocence and awakening through challenge, transformation, and integration. Emphasis is placed on how these cards reflect stages of consciousness, personal growth, and spiritual evolution.
How to Read Tarot with Clarity, Ethics, and Confidence
You will learn foundational and advanced techniques for reading Tarot clearly and responsibly. This includes cultivating discernment, maintaining energetic boundaries, honoring ethical considerations, and developing confidence in your interpretations—whether reading for yourself or others.
Intuitive Reading and Trusting Symbolic Intelligence
This section focuses on strengthening intuitive perception and learning how to listen to the subtle language of symbols, impressions, and inner knowing. Students will be guided in blending intuition with structure, allowing readings to become fluid, alive, and deeply resonant.
The Symbolism of the Tarot and How Meaning Is Encoded
A deep dive into the visual, mythological, and esoteric symbolism embedded within the Tarot. We will explore color, posture, numbers, elemental correspondences, and recurring motifs, learning how meaning unfolds through symbolic layers rather than memorized definitions.
Astrology Within the Tarot and Planetary Archetypes
An exploration of how astrology weaves through the Tarot, including planetary rulerships, zodiacal correspondences, and elemental dynamics. This section highlights how astrological archetypes enrich interpretation and add dimensional depth to readings.
Tarot Spreads for Insight, Healing, and Guidance
Students will learn a variety of Tarot spreads—from classic layouts to intuitive and situational spreads—designed to offer clarity, emotional insight, and spiritual guidance. Emphasis is placed on choosing or creating spreads that serve the question, the moment, and the seeker’s needs.
Real-Time Practice and Live Readings
Hands-on practice is a core component of this class. Students will read for one another in real time, receiving guidance, feedback, and reflection. This experiential component is designed to build confidence, fluency, and trust in both the cards and oneself as a reader.
“Danny’s mastery of each card is unrivaled. His methods completely transformed my readings—my potential now feels limitless.” – Holly S.
Testimonials From
Previous Students
“I cannot recommend enough to partake in Danny’s The Foundations of Tarot course. I thought I knew my way around a Tarot deck but I was wrong! Danny’s mastery of each card is unrivaled. Beyond just providing us in-depth knowledge of the deck, he also significantly improved my readings by teaching us methods that changed the game for me! I loved the group format where we had the opportunity to read to multiple different people. Reading had become a bit stale for me… now my potential feels limitless. I can’t wait for the second installment.” - Holly S.
“Beyond the personal growth, the class itself has been so fun, inviting, and radiating with compassion. It created a true sense of connection and community within the group! Every week, I found myself genuinely excited to show up, not just to learn, but to share space with others on a similar path. It became a light in my life, something I could count on to lift my spirit, expand my understanding, and re-center me on my path.” - Brooke L.
“Danny created a supportive environment to learn and expose yourself to the spiritual elements that enhance our ability to read tarot. Having multiple students ready to learn allowed the fear I had about ‘getting it right’ to dissipate and to embrace listening to my inner voice and connect with others. Danny was lovely, supportive, kind, and also provided insightful feedback and ways to improve and go a little deeper. I came in as a beginner with little knowledge beyond the basics, and am leaving with a deeper understanding of the force of tarot, as well as the purpose - it's a lens to discover and connect deeper with the beyond.” - Lexie L.
“When you learn a character's backstory, then everything about them finally makes sense. That's what Danny's Foundations of Tarot class was like for me. It provided the backstory for these cards. Now everything is so much more clear and the cards are easier to interpret. Danny is a great teacher who explains things clearly and patiently. His passion for Tarot shines through every class. I left class with my passion for Tarot reignited and my confidence level soaring.” - Kris K.
“From the moment the class began, it was clear that Danny knew his craft! He shared valuable information about tarot, looking for symbolism in the cards, and trusting yourself. As a beginner I felt intimidated, but the group was welcoming and I had a great time being a part of it. I appreciated Danny encouraging everyone when we tried reading the cards. We sent up our “bat signals” to the spirit guides so they could help us interpret the messages the tarot cards had for us. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is interested in learning tarot!” - Amber L.

If you are ready to study the Tarot as a living system - one that reflects psychology, spirituality, and lived experience - this class offers an invitation to step into deeper alignment with yourself, the symbols, and the intelligence that moves through all things.
“There is no greater magic in life than having the desire to change, to do, or to be something, and then actually doing it. That's what magic is about.”
