SHADOW TAROT

SERIES ONE | 78 Cards, A Thousand Ways to Work With Them

You’ve mastered reading the cards. Now discover what else you can do with them.

What if you could turn a tarot reading into an extraordinary experience of psychological discovery, somatic exploration and personal transformation?

Imagine working with a client who doesn’t just leave with an interpretation, but has actively explored an unconscious pattern, encountered a disowned part of themselves, recognised a protective response or reclaimed a quality they’ve spent years suppressing.

And you’ve facilitated that entire process using the tarot cards themselves.

Not by telling them what the cards mean. But by learning how to work with the imagery, archetypes and symbolism in ways that invite genuine psychological exploration.

Welcome to SHADOW TAROT.

An immersive, hands-on training bringing together Jungian shadow psychology, therapeutic approaches to tarot, foundational counselling skills and somatic practice.

You’ll learn to use the cards in ways you may never have experienced before.

Through representational work, archetypal dialogue, embodied exploration and psychologically informed reading methods.

This is an opportunity to dramatically expand the range of experiences you can facilitate within your existing tarot practice.

78 cards. An entirely new world of possibilities.

Beyond the Reading

Shadow Tarot is for practitioners ready to move beyond interpretation and develop the skills to facilitate deeper experiences of self-discovery.

You’ll learn how to combine tarot with counselling-informed questioning, somatic breath sensing and experiential psychological techniques to help clients explore their patterns, projections, emotional responses and untapped potential.

And you’ll experience these methods yourself, because understanding the process intellectually is very different from experiencing it.

This isn’t about learning more cards. It’s about discovering how much more you can do with the ones you already know.

What You'll Learn

Jungian Shadow Psychology. Explore how the shadow develops, projection, protective patterns and the golden shadow: the gifts and strengths we may have disowned.

Counselling-Informed Facilitation. Build rapport, practise reflective listening, ask thoughtful questions and learn to hold clear, respectful boundaries.

Somatic Tarot Practice. Bring breath, bodily sensation and present-moment awareness into the reading, without rushing to interpret or fix the experience.

Four Ways To Work With The Cards

Representational Readings. Use cards to represent different aspects of someone’s inner world, relationships or lived experience, and explore how they relate.

The Golden Shadow Reading. Explore the gifts, desires, strengths and possibilities someone has struggled to recognise or claim.

Dialogue with the Shadow. Use guided dialogue with a figure or archetype in a card to explore what a disowned part may be expressing.

The Hidden Pattern Reading. Explore recurring patterns, possible protective functions and opportunities for different choices.

This Is Experiential

You won’t spend four sessions listening to lectures. You’ll see demonstrations, practise in pairs, take turns as facilitator and participant, and reflect on what you notice. The aim is to leave with methods you can adapt to your existing tarot work and use in your own self-inquiry.

Who It's For

Tarot readers who already know their cards and want to develop a broader, more psychologically informed professional repertoire. Especially practitioners drawn to shadow work, archetypes, personal inquiry and embodied approaches.

You do not need a counselling qualification. This is an educational, counselling-informed tarot training, not a qualification to practise psychotherapy or clinical counselling. Participants will learn to work within appropriate scope, consent and referral boundaries.
