In the first series of video classes, we went through the technical side of the cards: how to frame a question, how to shuffle the cards, the nature of the suits, and we dismissed the superstitious side of Tarot. Now it’s time to look at the spiritual side of the Tarot: the Major Arcana. When you understand the symbols and meanings of the Major Arcana cards, you open yourself to a profound journey of self-care, self-healing, and empowerment.
Arthur Edward Waite (the designer of the modern Tarot) described the sequence of the Major Arcana as ‘the soul’s progress’—in other words, the journey to enlightenment. In this video, we look at how the Major Arcana reflects your inner world.
In this video, you discover how The Fool (and all of us) use the first part of our lives collecting experiences to enhance our personal development—especially on the conscious level.
Here we look at the first line of the Major Arcana cards to see how they reflect consciousness. We explore the deeper levels of the cards, starting with The Magician and ending with The Chariot. This first line of the Major Arcana is about the lessons The Fool needs to learn as he matures and experiences some measure of success in the outer world.
The next section of the Major Arcana shows how this segment of the Tarot helps you draw upon and develop your intuition. We look at cards ranging from Strength through to the Wheel of Fortune.
In the next section of Major Arcana, we delve into the cards from The Devil to The Tower. They are an essential part of the journey into superconsciousness, which is connected with the spiritual realms. To get there, we follow The Fool as he ventures into dark and dangerous territories. Through these personal challenges, he overcomes doubts about his worthiness to continue along this path.
The final cards of The Major Arcana bring fulfilment of all expectations and experiences. These cards reflect the final stage of developing spiritual awareness.
This video summarises The Fool’s Journey, representing the inner quest you undertake as you develop as an individual, and we do a reading for your personal and spiritual development.
Tarot readers have a big responsibility to tell the truth about what they see in a reading while being supportive at the same time. This lesson shows how to read Tarot cards with integrity.
Here are more examples of Tarot reading dilemmas and the code of ethics I use in my Tarot readings. It includes qualities such as honesty, being non-judgemental, confidentiality, and compassion.

The mystical Major Arcana is a sequence of spiritual evolution depicting gods, goddesses, and angels, but there is a darker side to each card in the Tarot. Understanding this concept adds more depth to your Tarot readings. In this session, we look at the light and dark aspects of The Fool.
Every card has a light and dark side. In this clip, we look at the card called The Tower and understand how its interpretation changes depending on the card's position in a layout. We also discuss how the surrounding images influence a card’s meaning.
In this session, we look at the ‘negative’ cards in the suit of Cups to discover their hidden messages of hope.
In this session, we look at the ‘negative’ cards in the suit of Pentacles to discover their hidden messages of hope.
In this session, we look at the ‘negative’ cards in the suit of Swords to discover their hidden messages of hope.
In this session, we look at the ‘negative’ cards in the suit of Wands to discover their hidden messages of hope.
In this session, you will learn how to recognise archetypes within the Tarot and see how they add potency to a reading. We will also explore how to use archetypal imagery to enhance your life.
Archetypes are fascinating elements forming the basis of The Major Arcana. This video briefly describes the archetypal forces in every Major Arcana card and explains how these archetypal energies affect the interpretation of each card.
Each of the main characters in the Tarot has a purpose; their role is to demonstrate the card’s meaning. But it’s not just the main character who holds the secret to the card’s interpretation. In this session, we look at how the main character’s energy and the surrounding symbols work together to provide the card’s meaning.
When two cards are near each other in a Tarot spread, sometimes they support each other’s energy, which strengthens the interpretation—and at other times, they have opposing energies, which has a softening reaction to their meanings. Here’s how to spot these card combinations and how they affect a Tarot reading.
The suit of Cups is about emotions and romance. In this video, I explain interpretations for each card when it appears in readings of a general nature, in a relationship spread, in a career situation, and during a spiritual reading.
The suit of Pentacles is about finance and material situations. In this video, I explain interpretations for each card when it appears in readings of a general nature, in a relationship spread, in a career situation, and during a spiritual reading.
The suit of Swords is based on the Air element, which rules the mental plane. This suit is mainly about thoughts and worries but also describes how you communicate with others. The Swords are often seen as a negative suit, but as you’ll see in this video, these cards have many strong and positive aspects. I explain interpretations for each card when it appears in readings of a general nature, in a relationship spread, in a career situation, and during a spiritual reading.
The suit of Wands is one of action. In this video, I explain interpretations for each card when it appears in readings of a general nature, in a relationship spread, in a career situation, and during a spiritual reading.
The Major Arcana is the spiritual side of the Tarot. In this video, I discuss cards from The Fool to the Wheel of Fortune. Interpretations are given for each card’s appearance in a reading of a general nature, in a relationship spread, in a career situation, and during a spiritual reading.
I discuss the Major Arcana cards from Justice to The World in this video. Interpretations are given for each card’s appearance in a reading of a general nature, in a relationship spread, in a career situation, and during a spiritual reading.
