Throw away your guidebook after this Tarot course!

For Tarot beginners and intermediate readers ready to go deeper, the Rider Waite Smith (RWS) Tarot Intensive provides professional-level training designed to build true confidence with the cards. This course takes a deep dive into the symbology and structure of the RWS deck so that you can understand any derivative deck (many tarot are based on the RWS system of reading).

If you are searching for a Tarot course that goes beyond memorising card meanings, this immersive training is designed for you.

At The Healing Bower, Tarot is not taught as a list of keywords. It is taught as a language.

Through Jodie’s signature Narrative Weave Method™, you will learn how to read Tarot by understanding how symbols, numbers, elements and archetypes interconnect, forming a living story within every spread.

Instead of trying to recall definitions under pressure, you will develop a clear, structured system that allows the cards to make sense naturally. When you can connect images through story, you can remember the cards!

Over two full days, you will gain the foundations of professional Tarot reading while deepening your intuitive confidence.

This is more than a course, it's a pathway to uncovering the mysteries within your life!
