“Decoding the Tarot by Alanna Kaivalya is a comprehensive, mystical, fun, and highly informative course about how we can utilize divination in our everyday lives by tapping into the potency of the unconscious, following the pattern of Joseph Campbell’s “Journey of the Hero”.

This course is enchanting, very clear and easy to understand for the beginner Tarot practitioner. Alanna’s extensive knowledge in mythology, psychology, astrology and spirituality forms a powerful platform for the student to jump into clearly understanding, decoding and utilizing the Tarot with ease.

It was an absolute delight learning the modules, the course is very easy to navigate, and Alanna goes over in great detail about the entire Tarot deck. She mentions throughout the course that “this is not fortune telling, it’s divine information based on the energetic imprint of the individual as we look into their unconscious mind to see what’s active for them”.

I highly recommend this course for anybody on their journey, it is a wonderful tool to have as we navigate through the murky waters of the unconscious mind. Having a good understanding of the messages of the Tarot illuminates our paths, based on what’s active for the individual.”
