Learn More About “Tarot For Brand New Moms”

by Theresa Reed on February 14, 2012

I’ve recently launched the first in my series of “digital classes” for those who wish to learn tarot with me.  The beauty of a digital classroom is that anyone can study with me, no matter where they are located!  And because the classes are recorded, you can listen to them again and again which helps to reinforce the learning.

Tarot For Brand New Moms is my first offering and I’m very excited about it.  This class will help more parents learn that tarot can be an ally in those sticky parenting situations.   Plus, they may be pleasantly surprised to discover that it is easier to learn tarot than they may have been led to believe.

My teaching style is direct, simple, interactive and clear.  There will be no esoteric mumbo jumbo, no complicated systems to learn, no cryptic rituals – this is tarot for real people with real lives.  

I’ve received a few questions about the class so I thought I’d write a little bit to tell you a  more about my goals with this class as well as upcoming ones:

What is your mission in these digital classes?

A:  My goal is to help more people learn how to use tarot for themselves and for different life issues.  I’m a practical tarot reader and I have found tarot to be one of the best tools to help navigate through life’s ups and downs.  Many people feel that they “can’t” learn tarot and that only a select few are “gifted” enough to work with it.  I’m here to dispel that notion and to show every person that they can indeed learn tarot – and more importantly, learn to use it for real life situations.

My other mission is to bring the tarot down to earth and make it accessible. I intend to do that by cutting the “tarot babble” and making it easy to understand.  There will be no heavy esoterics or lingo that is hard to comprehend.  I am going to make these classes appropriate and easy for all levels.  I’m all about real tarot for real people with real situations.

How can tarot help brand new moms?

A:  Being a mom is the most challenging job in the world!  Despite the glut of baby books and information out there, you’re still learning as you go.  By connecting with our own divine guidance through the use of tarot cards, we can make better decisions that suit the individual child and situation.  Tarot is a tool that can empower the parent to make more confident and conscious choices.  

I’ve used tarot myself in many tough parenting situations.  It has always helped me to gain perspective as to what was needed so that I could better guide my children.  

What kind of things will we learn in the class?

A: We will talk about conscious parenting, trusting the intuition, how tarot can be applied for parenting questions as well as a bunch of different spreads that can be used in many creative ways.

What if I cannot make the live classes?

A:  No worries – each of the live classes will be recorded and a link will be sent to the participants so that they may download it and listen to it whenever they wish. 

Tell me more about the bonuses?

A: I’ve got some juicy bonuses!  I’ve interviewed some awesome tarot readers who are parents for a variety of hot topics!  I’ll be talking with Donnaleigh de la Rose, the host of Beyond Worlds about Tarot For Children with Special Needs.  I also have a great interview with Chanel Bayless, the creator of A Knight’s Journey Tarot and the brand spanking new hot of the presses Simply Deep Tarot about Tarot and Single Parenting.  Finally, I just added a very cool bonus interview with Matt Williams of Personal Tarot With Matt – he and I discussed Tarot for Dads and offered ideas for working with tarot – and more – for fathers.  This wealth of information will give parents from many different backgrounds a lot to work with.

What if I am not a brand new mom – what if I am the parent of teenagers for example? Can I still take the class?

A:  Absolutely! Even though the class is titled “Tarot For Brand New Moms”, the spreads and information presented is timeless.  Some of the information in the workbook for example are spreads that can be adjusted to ANY parenting situation and I give examples for school age kids – not just babies.  

I especially encourage parents of adolescents and teens to consider this class as there is a lot of stuff here that they will find useful.

What if I am a dad?  Are men allowed to take this class?

A:  Men are not only welcomed but encouraged!  Who says women are the only ones that are intuitive?  The information in this class will help any dad learn to connect with their own intuition and make conscious choices that can aid in their role as a father.  They can help them to learn to interact more sensitively and mindfully with their children.  Men have the same intuitive gifts as women and they shouldn’t be afraid to use it!  I think tarot is a great way for men to access their sensitive psychic side.  

If you are interested in signing up, please visit Tarot For Brand New Moms and sign up today.  Registration closes on Monday morning, February 20th 2012.  

Any other questions?  Shoot me an email and I’ll be glad to answer you! 

 

Blessings!

I couldn’t finish this series without getting a male perspective –  I had to chat with Matt Williams!

Matt is a professional tarot reader, reiki master and father of two.  He is the author of Tarot Thoughts Blog at http://personaltarotwithmatt.com/blog and his writing has been featured in Tarosophist International as well.  On Tuesday nights at 7 pm Central, Matt hosts the Akasha Temple Radio production, “Personal Tarot Radio” at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/akashatemple.  To keep up with Matt and find out more about him, check out his facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/personaltarot or follow him on Twitter @personaltarot.

To order a reading with Matt, you can visit his website http://personaltarotwithmatt.com or email him at readings@personaltarotwithmatt.com.  Readings are available in person throughout the Greater Chicago area and email based services are available globally.

 

1. We always hear about “motherly intuition” but we all know that males have those parental instincts too. How does your intuition serve you?

Oh goodness, if it wasn’t for my intuition I think I would have freaked out as a parent.  As little ones, it was that inner voice that helped me know when something was going awry in the other room.  It was the energetic, non vocal communication that I had with my kids that helped me to understand the needs they were experiencing but could not voice.  Now that they are getting older and developing their personalities, it is my intuition that helps me find ways to connect with them.  This past weekend as we were coming home from a trip up to Michigan, I was paying attention to the intuitive messages that were coming in. Despite the vocalized apathy and distractions from video games, I suggested we take a little detour and drive down the lake shore highway.  After a little bit, we found a roadside park with beach access and took a walk down to the water.  Suddenly, the games and boredom vanished.  The beauty and peacefulness of the waterfront gave us a chance to laugh, play and enjoy the time we had together more memorable than the entire weekend trip.  

 
2. How has tarot helped you with your parenting?  

With the tarot coming into my life much later than my kids, it has been interesting to see some of the ways that I can examine issues in their lives from a deeper perspective.  My son has experienced the frustration and tension of bullying more than once.  While this is never an easy thing for a parent to deal with, by using the tarot I was able to help both of us see the situation in a new light.  Through a joint exploration of the cards, I was able to show him not only the reasons behind the bully’s actions but ways to avoid the situation and thrive despite outside pressure.  

 
3. What advice would you give new to parents? 

The biggest thing I can say to new parents is that no one knows how to raise your child like you do, even if you don’t feel like you know what you’re doing.  The most prevalent thing I found in early parenting was a proliferation of advice coming from everywhere and everyone.  So much was coming at me, that I often doubted my skills as a father and whether or not I was “doing it right” according to other people’s expectations.  Once I realized that the only way I could screw up was to not be involved in their lives, I saw that every thing I did as a father was right.  Love your kids, trust in your judgment and know that even when you make a mistake it is an opportunity for you all to grow. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A big hug to Matt for contributing a Dad’s point of view!  You can learn more about Matt or purchase a reading from his site, Personal Tarot With Matt.

Blessings!
