Animal Symbolism in the Tarot at The College of Psychic Studies (online)

From pale horses and crayfish to foxes, ibis and cats, the tarot's animals reveal latent meanings. Enjoy a sojourn in the tarot's symbolic zoo in this three-part livestream workshop.

In this online workshop, we'll travel through time with the tarot as our magic carpet. The cards will take us on a cross-cultural journey through the kingdom of beasts, chimeras and theriomorphic gods. From Ovid's Metamorphosis to European folktales, we'll look at animals as a repository of symbolic and often magical attributes, examining these through a variety of card divination systems. We'll reimagine the cards through the lens of animal behaviour to reshape our understanding of the tarot. Through practical exercises, meditation and hands-on experimentation, we'll rewild our tarot eye and awaken our instincts as tarot readers.
