Tarot Reading for Beginners

Tarot Reading for Beginners

The Lavender ProjectLlangadog, Wales
Sunday, Feb 1, 2026 from 10 am to 5 pm GMT
Overview

Spend a fun day in a magical hideaway exploring the types of tarot cards, symbols, meanings & ways to interpret the stories of the tarot.

We'll be exploring the types of cards in a classic tarot deck, symbolism, imagery, archetypes and different ways to intuit, read and understand the cards. You will walk away from the day with a grounding in the tarot, and solid ideas of how to begin to read and form a relationship with a tarot deck.


Who is this workshop for?

This is a beginners tarot workshop. Whether you've never seen a tarot deck but are feeling curious, are yet to have your own deck, have just got started, or want to be able to tap into your intuition and read the cards better without the help of a book, this is the workshop for you!

Feel free to bring your own deck if you have one you'd like to work with, but it's not a requirement- I have plenty of decks on hand here for you to have a look at and learn from.


What will you walk away with?

Lots of useful information, some solid ideas of how to begin to read and form a relationship with a tarot deck, and a specially made booklet containing all the information from the day, as well as some suggestions on how to deepen your learning at home.


Who's running the workshop?

Holly: an artist and tarot reader who has been working with tarot for 6 years, and wants to share the insights and inspiration that tarot has brought her with as many other people as she can!


What is tarot?

Well there's a big question! There are almost infinite answers to this, but I believe it to be a beautiful and useful form of storytelling.

A classic tarot deck contains 78 cards, and within those cards there is a whole range of emotions, archetypes, situations, relationships and other aspects of life represented. When we pull a card from a deck, or do a reading with multiple cards, it represents a story of what is happening for us. I see the tarot as a mirror that shows us our full story. Not just the bits that are obvious to us, but everything: what's underneath our desires and actions, what may be blocking us, and how we can best move forwards, among other truths. They are an honest and informative way to look at a situation. And, to me, they are just as magical as we humans are...so, very.

You can engage with them on any level though. Whether you simply find the stories interesting or you look at life through a more magical lense, I believe the tarot have something to teach absolutely everyone.

If you want to hear more, you'll have to come and join the workshop!


Testimonials

"The Internal Storytelling workshop was really fun. There was a really good vibe and everyone was happy working on the task, but in their own way. I liked that the instructions on what to do where given in a way that we didn’t feel like we were being told that we had to do anything or that there was any pressure. There was lots of freedom, and we could’ve chosen to do it any way we wanted. There was a big choice of all the different things and materials; all the stuff we could’ve possibly needed or wanted to use, and lots of guidance and help if we weren’t sure about anything. I ended up being very pleased with what I did. I don’t consider myself very good at drawing, or at anything to do with art in any way, but what I ended up with was really good!"
