Since their invention in Europe in the 14th century, playing cards have been used to predict the future. They can be thought upon as the precursor to tarot cards. One of the earliest types of fortune telling is cartomancy, which is still practiced today.
In this class students will read a regular deck of playing cards as a method of fortune-telling just as tarot cards are used.
Items Needed:
- Regular Deck of Playing Cards
Prerequisites: Cartomancy 1
In Cartomancy one, you learned what Cartomancy 1 is, the difference between Tarot and Cartomancy. You also learned what each suit represents, along with reviewing a couple of spread layouts. Remember when looking at a card there can be many interruptions and this is where your intuition comes into play. In this class, you will be practicing reading a playing deck using many different spreads.

In this course, we will work on connecting with our cards, the basic meanings of all 78, we will build on reading for ourselves, with a focus on reading for other people. The brunt of this course is sharing readings, learning as you read, and learning from others. I will spend much time during this semester reading with you.
The readings in this course will be very loosely guided. I will set some parameters and set you free into the world to experience tarot delight. You may use any of the divination chats to complete your readings. Participation in one divination chat is required, as is a small essay on the experience.
Some of the spreads and interpretations will be posted to the discussion forum. If you feel uncomfortable at any time about posting a response to the forum, then message me privately. I will not post a response to each of your assignments. I will read every single one of them and respond where I feel I can enrich the learning process.
