Hello darling reader, I hope your new year is proving pivotal, renewing and willful. I’m writing to tell you that my signature course, Thresholds, is now open for enrollment!

I am seriously astounded by the cohorts that form in this particular container. Each go round just deepens and the student feedback is ever more humbling. I have seen the impact that having Red Tarot: A Decolonial Guide to Divinatory Literacy to accompany the course is having. I can’t believe my book will turn 1 (!) in just a couple of months, so if you’ve got Red Tarot in your shelves and want to go even deeper, then this course is just for you.

To be honest, I am often told by students that my courses are comparable to collegiate study, and well that is the intention. I know that many have had horrible experiences in institutional education, and yet still want a space to express their genius amidst others who just as passionate about learning.

As testified by my students, this is akin to a graduate level course but far more juicy! This work is one-of-a-kind, and we go far deeper in our studies than you may find elsewhere, including collegiate institutions (which also have included my work as part of doctorate curricula), and I provide you with a plethora of resources to meaningfully engage your learning.

Thresholds offers a comprehensive tarot education in red reading. This course is aimed towards finding the dignity in divination that is denied in dominator culture. This is not an appropriated, aka white-washed new age spirituality. This is a course in historic reality, addressing the legacies of colonization as we conjure a decolonial imaginary.

This course will vivify your tarot cards and your divinatory reading so that your experience within the course, and thereafter your cartomancy can heal the psychic wound inflicted by assault from the forces of imperialist, racist, classist, sexist, domination.

The questions we are here concerned with are:

How do you read tarot? How do the cards decolonize the psyche, the self and the querent? How does the tarot as an aesthetic object engage a process of cultural transformation that will ultimately create a revolution in vision? How can tarot take us away from the real only to bring us back with renewed perception?

This is a classroom, a conjuring, a vehicle, an incubator, a threshold through tarot towards transformation. It is a space of emancipatory possibility, designed and facilitated by the love and passion I have for my craft and my community. It is a witches garden in the 3 of cups, and a safe haven in the 3 of pentacles. You will learn tarot differently because this classroom will teach you how to think through the tarot, rather than rely on memorized meanings to spout.

Thresholds will catalyze your divinatory relationships because it engages the cards as cyphers for decolonizing consciousness. The cards will be made real as we catalogue the wisdom distilled from our experience with them. In the cards find the lost reflections of your love, your strength and resiliency. In the cards confront your fear, your pain, your potential.

Thresholds is a course in threading the disparate cords of consciousness into a rich tapestry of life. This is a course in transformation, magic, manifestation, healing, ritual and decolonization.

Thresholds is for you if you want to create an authentic, organic, empowering and revelatory relationship with SPIRIT through tarot. It is for you if you are Black, Red, Brown and or White and want to unlearn anti-blackness and deject the internalized white supremacy. It is for you if you want to use tarot as a prothesis to mend the ruptures of colonialism upon our birthright to richly intuitive, animate, multivalent divinatory psychic faculty.

Hear what Amelia had to say about her experience in the last run of Thresholds:

Check out more in-depth student testimonials on the course page and get a sense why I have been so proud to continue offering this course.

As my style of teaching is socratic and dialogic, I will be the psychopomp facilitating our soul journey in our time together. Live classes are focused on application and skill development in reading. In the live class we cover special subjects as timing and tarot, the cards of the chart, reversals, shadow work and more! This time is for digging deeper into the week's material, sharing perspectives, conducting group readings and sharing space.

I will likely only offer this course once more this year, so now is your chance to start the year with a truly transformative tarot study. There are various enrollment options, including payment plans and scholarships as well!

I hope to see you across the Threshold dear reader. Reach out if you have any questions.

Christopher
