Minimalist Tarot - a Clutter-Free Approach to Reading the Cards

CTS's own Anthony, author of Minimalist Tarot, has had his guest post titled "Minimalist Tarot - a Clutter-Free Approach to Reading the Cards" published on Little Red Tarot.  It's a great read about eliminating clutter from our tarot readings and not getting distracted by unnecessary bells and whistles.

CTS Now offering Reader Referrals

From time to time CTS receives a request from someone looking to hire a tarot reader, whether for a personal reading or an event.  Not all of our members provide paid tarot services on a professional level, but many do.  We have therefore decided to begin offering a referral service to match tarot clients with a professional tarot reader.

If you are a client seeking to hire a tarot reader, you can contact us at capitaltarot@gmail.com. Provide any relevant information about what you are looking for - for instance a specific kind of reading, someone to read at an event, an in-home visit, readings within a certain budget or price range - and we will do our best to match you with a reader who is right for you.  You can also check out our find a reader page for links to websites run by CTS members.

If you are a CTS member, please also contact capitaltarot@gmail.com and mention you'd like to be added to the "reader for hire" list.  We'll get back to you with a few questions about your experience level, rates and services. You can also request to have your website added to our find a reader page.

If you are a tarot reader, but are not currently a CTS member, and would like to accept client referrals from CTS, consider joining!  Joining CTS is fairly easy, and it doesn't cost you anything.  You can learn more at our how to join page.

Happy reading!

*Note that CTS does not accept liability or responsibility for, nor do we guarantee, services provided to you by the CTS reader to whom you have been referred.  The readers listed in CTS's reader directory are not employees of CTS.  CTS does not accept payment on behalf of readers, nor can CTS process payments or refunds.  All payments, reading arrangements and refund requests should be made directly with your reader.*

Next Meeting this Saturday January 10!

We will be having our next meeting the second Saturday of the month this month because of New Years, and at our new location!  Our January meeting will feature nametag making and New Years readings.

See you soon!

Next Meeting November 1!

On Oct. 4 the Capital Tarot Society had a lively discussion on “Tarot and the Law of Attraction: Making Your Wishes Come True.” We discussed the idea that thoughts and energy help to create our reality.

We discussed how to raise our vibrational energy through a variety of means ranging from art to exercise to meditating on tarot cards. We also discussed how tarot can be used to help you uncover your blocks to manifestation. A resource sheet was distributed that included a list of Law of Attraction tarot decks and an e-book, among other resources. We ended by doing a Law of Attraction spread designed to help us uncover and manifest our wishes.

It was super fun but also very informative and enriching - big thanks to our awesome October presenter!

Next month's meeting will be on November 1 and we will enjoy a timely presentation on the Day of the Dead.  Day of the Dead is NOT Halloween and is for many an occasion of great spiritual significance.  We're all excited to learn about this holiday's cross-disciplinary influence on Tarot.

But before that, we are looking forward to our October 25th psychic shop field trip!

Next Meeting October 4!

The next meeting of the Capital Tarot Society will take place on Saturday, October 4 at 12:30 PM.  Sarah will be presenting, "Tarot and the Law of Attraction: Making Wishes Come True."

Should be fascinating!

Next Meeting June 7!

Emily will be discussing readings for strangers and faraway querents.  Reading for strangers and folks you can't see can be very stressful because it takes away the comfort of being able to make inferences from information you may already know about the querent or the from the querent's appearance and reactions during the reading.  Some may also wonder if geographic distance somehow diminishes the accuracy of the reading.  This presentation is aimed at assuaging these concerns through a little discussion of the presenter's experience performing cold readings and a LOT of practical exercise. 

Next Meeting Saturday May 10!

The Next Meeting of the Capital Tarot Society is May 10!  Note that this is the SECOND Saturday in May.  Normally we meet the first Saturday of each month but our meeting space will not be available on May 3.

We will again meet the first Saturday in June, and we will meet the SECOND Saturday in JULY because of the July 4th holiday.  After that we will return to our normal meeting schedule.
