Course Description

More than anything, tarot is designed to help you tell and understand stories -- whether they are your own, or that of your clients. Yet, when learning tarot, it's easy to get bogged down by a myriad of interpretations without fully understanding the intrinsic meaning of each card. Suddenly you're trying to remember five meanings for one card -- and you still haven't completed a tarot reading. Explicit Tarot is a tarot course designed to teach you the core meanings of each tarot card. Through stories and simple techniques, Explicit Tarot will teach you the major themes of all 78 cards, with tangible examples of how those meanings translate to the real world. You'll receive downloadable worksheets so that you can take notes, and over three hours of videos to teach you everything you need to know to start actually reading tarot, instead of just memorizing it. Who this course is for:
Those who have just started learning tarot, or who need a way to learn the core meanings of each card.

Instructor Details

Adana Washington

I've been working with tarot for over eight years. My first tarot deck was the Gothic Tarot of Vampires, a deck that I bought for myself on my eighteenth birthday. I've been doing tarot readings ever since.
Over the years, I've developed a blunt, straightforward reading style that I've carried over into my tarot books. I've written The Sassy Tarot Little White Book, Tarot Conversations, and Tarot In Real Life. Two of my books have even become Amazon best sellers for tarot.
I recently fulfilled my dream of publishing my very own tarot deck. The Kundalini Tarot deck is the product of five years of studying, practicing and drawing while influenced by kundalini energy. It features black and white artwork that celebrates the female form and allows for unrestrained intuition-based reading.

I love the storytelling! The meanings of the cards will really stick now.

By Dianne Robinson on 10/20/2020

I very much enjoyed the tying of the cards together through story telling. I have never had the Tarot explained to me in this way before and I found it so very much easier to remember the story of each card now. Thank you for simplifying the Tarot for me, I have really enjoyed the course and feel much more confident in doing my own readings now. Blessings.

I really enjoyed this course. It explained the tarot card meanings in a simple way. I am a beginner and was able to understand everything very easily.

By Sanika Samant on 5/24/2020

This course offers a very interesting perspective to tarot reading by reciting stories, which makes it easier to understand and relate to the meaning of each card. The instructor's in-depth understanding of the cards is reflected in the videos. However the presentation and delivery was very lethargic and bland. More enthusiasm and professionalism from the instructor would certainly have elevated this unique course to a different level.

By Denise Bolds on 5/22/2020

I like the analogy of using Bob, Cindy, & Mark What I didn't understand is the instructor did NOT refer to the images on the actual cards themselves - There's a bunch of info that was completely not addressed! Raider & Waite did an awesome job of that and its omitted in this instruction.

By Minette Bryant on 5/22/2020

I think the material is good, but it's lost in the very poor presentation. This "teacher" doesn't even introduce herself, and the teaching is filled with "so" and "you know"...lots of empty filler. The resource sheets are not helpful...they're just like worksheets that I guess I'm supposed to print off and fill out, rather than helpful lists or slides. Even just a downloadable version of her slideshow so I can go along with it would be helpful. So far, this seems extremely unprofessional. This is not at all what I hoped for...at least not so far. UPDATE: I finished the course. I did find some of the slides really helpful, but had to take screenshots to create my own PDFs. I've taken several Udemy courses, and this one--while it has some great information--really pales in comparison.
