Delphine de la Mar guides beginner students through the deck's 'major arcana', the 22 cards representing the large power archetypes for those learning how to read: https://www.treadwells-london.com/events-1/beginner-tarot-major-cards-in-person-course-3

This course can be taken before, after or alongside a study of the 'minor arcana' (the 56 remaining cards). By the end of the course, everyone will be able to do simple tarot card readings.

Delphine de la Mar started reading in her teens, and brings deep knowledge of the symbolic language of tarot. Her expertise, while grounded in practice, is more widely informed by cross-cultural esoteric studies, a degree in comparative religion and an accomplished professional life in the business world.
