Begin or deepen your exploration of the Tarot Chariot card with me this November. How do you, the Charioteer of your life, wish to enter your next phase out in the world? The Chariot card invites you to explore how you align and prepare your heart, your resources, your passions, and your ideas for the next adventure. We write to a wide variety of tarot card imagery, we reflect on our past and present experiences of the card , and we create personal tarot card art based on 1) our lived experiences and 2) our “wished for” experiences. The card we create acts as both a witness and a visionary tool. We just finished The Lovers card course; the depth of inquiry and heart connection experienced the last six weeks continues to inspire me to teach these courses.

Tarot Journaling: The Chariot: Runs on Sundays over zoom 2:00-3:30 pm PST / 5:00-6:30 pm EST starting on Sunday, November 9th and ending on Sunday, December 14th. Offered by Antioch University Continuing Education (Online). Course cost is $100.

In this six-week course we explore how the Chariot, Major Arcanum VII, symbolizes readiness for action in the world. Though we often call this card the Chariot, it signifies at its core how you, the Charioteer, choose to bring your dreams, career, and self forward in the world. 

The four Minor Arcana Sevens in the tarot deck offer a chance to reflect on the questions about how we’ve encountered the Chariot’s energy in the past and how we’d like to change our approach as Charioteer heading into the present and future:

How do we listen carefully to the heart’s messages to discern which cups (hearts) align with our best course of action as we prepare to go public (Seven of Cups)?

How do we grow our ability to have patience and trust harvest’s timeline for the seeds we’ve planted? (Seven of Disks)

How do we access our hidden fears and desires to voice them and communicate honestly and directly about our goals? (Seven of Swords)

How do we nurture the stamina, courage, and passion to keep going in the face of opposition? (Seven of Wands)

These are the kinds of in-depth questions we will address in writing and discussion. You will learn a method for tarot journaling and a handful of other simple tools designed to help you begin and deepen your relationship to tarot. You’ll have the optional opportunity to create a personal tarot card using your own personal symbols that resonate for you. No prior experience with the tarot or with art-making is necessary. Tarot images from a variety of decks will be provided, though you are welcome to work with your own deck of choice.
