Welcome to Tarot Circle Social Networking

Tarot Circle Members

I started Tarot Circle in 2000 in Central Village, Connecticut.  My goal was to create a fellowship of tarot enthusiasts to share wisdom, knowledge, readings and fun.

Tarot Circle meetings tend to be informal tarot workshops.  Sometimes we work together on a project, like making collage tarot cards.  Other times we study a specific topic, like Feng Shui.  Sometimes we share readings and food.

Tarot Circle has met in peoples’ homes, shops and offices.  We have met in conference rooms, a church, a naturist resort, and online. 

Tarot Circle meetings are open to everyone with an interest in tarot, from brand-new beginners to experienced professionals.  At Tarot Circle, everyone learns and grows.  We practice the tradition of “each one teach one.”

Over the years, Tarot Circle has produced many special events, including the Pocono Tarot Picnic, the Connecticut Tarot Picnic, the Tarot Costume Potluck in Plainfield, CT, “Soup and Psychics,” a fundraiser for the American Legion in the Poconos, “Skill Share” in West Palm Beach, and of course, our annual Holiday Open House.

At Holiday Open House 2011 in West Palm Beach we had more than twenty readers and healers volunteer their skills.  Together, we raised 600 pounds of food for Feeding South Florida.

Tarot Circle is dedicated to fellowship, education and community service.

Tarot Circle meets in many cities and towns.  Global Tarot Circle is available online worldwide.

On this website you will find a growing number of photos from Tarot Circle events, class materials for tarot study, creative tarot projects, ideas for tarot study groups and Tarot Circle meetings, and a schedule of Tarot Circle events.

Your photos, memorabilia, creative tarot projects and upcoming event listings are welcome here!

Global Tarot Circle meets once a month online. In April we met on Monday the 8th. We had folks from all over the United States, including Florida, Maine, Kentucky, Connecticut and California. As usual, some of our participants were professional readers, others were tarot beginners and others were somewhere in-between.

One of the goals of Tarot Circle is to gather tarot enthusiasts of all levels of experience together for the purpose of learning from each other.

This Month Global Tarot Circle met on March 18, right between St. Patrick's Day and the Vernal Equinox.

We started our meeting by reading for each other. We are getting really good at "group consensus readings," where we each pull a few cards and put them all together to tell the story.

In honor of St. Patrick's Day we had a discussion about fate, destiny, luck and karma. We talked about specific tarot cards that indicate those energies in a reading (Wheel of Fortune, Justice, and Judgment, for example).

February Global Tarot Circle Recap

We had a great group for our February Global Tarot Circle, ranging from brand new readers to professionals. In honor of Valentine's Day our topic was Love and Tarot.

Global Tarot Circle gets more and more fun all the time! This time we started our meeting by having each person pull a card at random and use that card as a way of introducing themself. It was a good way to learn about significators and how the cards can describe individuals. It was also a fun exercise of self-discovery.

Global Tarot Circle met on Thursday, December 13, 2012. We started with a group reading for one of our members.

Our "learning segment" was a short workshop on the numbers of tarot, especially the pips. Each member found a series of three consecutive cards in the Minor Arcana and told the story they saw within those three cards. We discussed keywords for each number, and discussed how the Minor Arcana cards fit those keywords.

An aura reading in progress

Over the past eighteen years many of you have had a chance to attend or volunteer for one of my Holiday Open House events.

Last year's Open House at the Harvey Building in West Palm Beach was the biggest ever, featuring twenty-two readers and healers offering services to countless numbers of guests. Together, we raised 600 pounds of food.

We had a great turnout for our November Global Tarot Circle. Our topic was Tarot Reversals. The format for the meeting was discussion, which happened primarily in the chatroom.

There are no absolute rules about reversals. Not every reader uses them, and all readers have different takes on how to use them, and how they can be interpreted.

Some of the things we shared and agreed upon included the idea that reversals can add subtle nuances to the reading, and that we shouldn't choose not to use reversals simply because it complicates things for us as readers.

The toughest thing for me about taking Tarot Circle on-line and global instead of live and local was getting used to the Webex technology. The second toughest thing is the lack of cakes and brownies available in the on-line environment.

October's Global Tarot Circle happened this past Sunday. We haven't solved the problem of baked goods, but we seem to have the technology working well. When a participant does have a rare problem, Webex is happy to take a look at it and offer solutions for the next time.

Tarot all over the world!

Many of you know that Tarot Circle began in 2000 in Central Village, CT.   Its goal then, as now, was to foster fellowship, study and growth around the tarot.   The concept is that we can all learn from each other.

Another goal of Tarot Circle is to serve the community at large. Over these many years we have raised food, money and toys by donating our skills to those in need.

Over the years, we have met in towns throughout Connecticut, Pennsylvania and South Florida.
