Join us as we create the world’s leading tarot certificate and learn tarot from a lifetime of real experience!
To celebrate over 15 years of teaching tarot through the Tarot Association we are offering places on a new live recording of our tarot certificate course for beginners or nervous newcomers to tarot – or for tarot readers who want to ensure they have the latest discoveries & insights into the card meanings, innovative methods and best practice to their craft.
This contemporary training in tarot is based on our ground-breaking research and lifetime experience in reading tarot and teaching through the Tarosophy Tarot Association and our many books over the years.
This tarot course guarantees that you will learn the actual meaning of the cards as intended by A. E. Waite and Pamela Colman Smith, the creators of the world’s most popular tarot deck, the Waite-Smith Tarot.
You will also learn the 3-minute method of reading tarot from absolute beginner that was created by leading author and reader Marcus Katz from 45 years of tarot experience.
In 3 minutes – as demonstrated at many tarot conventions and workshops – you will be able to conduct a basic reading of any deck for any question, even with no prior knowledge of tarot.
Then we take you further over 10 x 1-hour fun and mind-blowing classes in a journey through the very latest ways of reading tarot for a modern audience.
At the end of the course, you will be awarded a Tarosophy Tarot Certificate signed by us as a demonstration of your commitment and passion for your craft!
Included in your tarot certificate course:
- The Tarosophy 3-minute and 10-minute methods of learning and teaching tarot.
- The meaning of the symbols of the Waite-Smith Tarot Deck from the book that “changed the way we see tarot forever” (Barbara Moore), The Secrets of the Waite-Smith Tarot by Marcus Katz & Tali Goodwin.
- The true spiritual and mystical meaning of the Major Arcana from our latest book, based on ten years of research into the life and work of A. E. Waite, The Spiritual Key to the Tarot.
- The actual structure of the cards and how they derive their meanings from our historical research into the Golden Dawn, published in A New Dawn for Tarot: The Original Tarot of the Golden Dawn.
- BONUS SESSION on LENORMAND reading from our ground-breaking work that re-introduced the Lenormand to the English-speaking audience, Learning Lenormand.
- Practical, Quick and Powerful Methods of designing your own spreads to suit any question, from Marcus’s first book, Tarosophy, which both the late Rachel Pollack and Mary K. Greer described as a valuable development of the tarot tradition.
- Methods to deal easily and positively with any challenge facing a real-world tarot reader, selected from our popular book, Practical Tarot Techniques.
- Traditional methods not used by other readers from our comprehensive history of cartomancy and tarot published in Tarot Time Traveller.
- And so much more!
You will also get the time to ask direct questions and receive answers from Marcus, who has been reading tarot for 45 years and has conducted tens of thousands of face-to-face readings.

This tarot certificate course is suitable for: Absolute beginners, beginners, intermediate students and experienced readers wishing a fresh new take on Tarot.
And if you have never taken a tarot course before, this course is made especially for you. Marcus is a real-world tarot reader and teacher and has taught students around the world in person and online.
You can check out and meet Marcus on his regular LIVE Tarot Unplugged Sessions on his Actual Magician’s Bookshelf Channel here.
The course commences LIVE in September 2025 but you will also then be able to view the recordings if you cannot make any of the live sessions.
This is not just “the only tarot course you will ever need” but one where we can guarantee you will not learn the insights, discoveries and methods taught in the classes anywhere else – unless they have come from us in the first place! 😉
