Astrology and the Tarot are often mentioned in the same sentence, and books on the two topics sit side-by-side on shelves everywhere. The two arts are distinct, yet they intersect in a variety of fascinating, mutually beneficial ways.
Tarot offers to Astrology a rich vocabulary of images, archetypes, and arcana, while Astrology provides a new level of depth and nuance to the cards’ meanings. Furthermore, the cards that appear often refer to natal or transiting planetary placements, and Astrology provides a wider context and timeframe in which to situate a particular Tarot reading.
The Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot, which the majority of 20th and 21st century Tarot decks are based on, was designed with a set of solid astrological correlations in mind. The Planets, Signs, Elements, and Decans all have explicit correlations with the 78 cards. Thus the Rider-Waite-Smith, as well as the structurally cognate Thoth deck, serve as the place we will begin exploring the synergy and interplay between the two disciplines.
The recordings of this 25+ hour class present the Tarot cards in the context of their dialogue with Astrology. Studying their conversation will enrich your Astrology, deepen your understanding of Tarot, and produce a more thorough understanding of their remarkable relationship.
if you’ve heard Austin Coppock speak you know he’s amazing & this course doesn’t disappoint
I am really enjoying this! Austin’s way of explaining is very digestible and gets my wheels turning making connections and deepening my understanding.
I have always appreciated Austin’s depth of knowledge & teaching style, I liken it to that book on the shelf you go back to and always glean more. His ability to connect endless symbolic threads is whole other level.10/10 recommend.
I have dabbled in tarot with no real seriousness since I was a small child using my dad's Robin Wood deck. My 'practice' (if that's what I was doing) was without any structure, highly undisciplined, and ultimately turned into more of a form of entertainment that I didn't think I could ever take seriously. I ended up dropping the cards overtime, and it wasn't until I discovered the true depths of Astrology (with Chris, Austin, and Kelly) in college that I began to find the cards intriguing once more.
It was very difficult to study both astrology and tarot at the same time, and I was forced to choose astrology while substituting oracle cards as a crutch and shortcut to the tarot until I was ready to give the tarot the attention it truly deserved. After 5 years of serious astrological study and having just recently completed Austin's course on the decans, the time finally seemed right and this course was the best place to begin. While there is something to be said for my familiarity with the cards prior to beginning this course, I have never felt so comfortable with the tarot as I do now, and am proud to admit I haven't felt the need to consult any of my 10s of oracle decks for clarification (not that they don't have their place).
It is also worth mentioning that while I took this course for the purposes of expanding my knowledge of the tarot, the additional insight and language used to describe the astrological associations (planets, signs, decans, and the way they manifest in everyday life) has been invaluable to my ability to break down charts verbally rather than just in my head.
Overall, this is a great course for deepening your knowledge of the tarot, a great course for expanding on your knowledge of astrology, and if (like me) you have some familiarity with both, this course is an absolute must.
I would also be remiss to not recommend Susan Chang's books on the tarot as well, which Austin himself recommends at the beginning of this course. They are a nifty companion, especially if you find yourself to be lacking in your motivation to take lecture notes.
A place to turn when you need to find/remember better words to use when talking with your deck.
You know those moments when you’ve been through some shit with your deck there beside you, and then you have to go back to talking every day again about normal stuff. The interactions where you and your deck keep seeing the past way of looking 👀 rather than new opportunities to create truer perspectives?
This course is a fix for “fill in the blank mode.” It’s a lap worthy experience for “leveling up” your relational language for tarot.
Coppock 🕵️♂️ is always the generous teacher that offers you the insight and wisdom to help you see rather than just the information to feed the present question.
I am still at the beginning at the class but so amazed by Austin´s in depth knowledge of the cards. I have the feeling Austin is lifting a veil in each card which I didn´t even knew was there, and blowing light upon each one of those. Can´t wait to keep watching this really addictive class. Austin besides shares his deep knowlede in a very clear and beautiful way nuanced with a good humor. What also fascinates me is the clarity He brings. Besides is the first time I hear someone explain the 22 paths and making sense
to me. Totally 5 stars.
I first saw Austin on the Astrology podcast, and I found him to be well spoken and very engaging. His understanding of astrology is profound and his communication is earnest and precise. This course is wonderful so far, I have listened to the first 4 classes, can not wait to hear about the court cards and the minors next. Austins sense of humour is a such a bonus, tarot and astrology can be heavy and deeply reflective subjects, so I love it when he randomly cracks me up with his humour. 10/10 👍👍👍
This course has provided many missing links between two practices that I knew, had too be very much connected. A whole new context has emerged. I look forward to combining the two in order to bring additional depth and meaning to my readings. Thank you very much for sharing your extensive knowledge whilst providing paths of inquiry along the way. An excellent course and I look forward to further learning with you!
This lecture series is so helpful! I’ve been reading tarot for a while but felt I was missing key information that I hadn’t seen anywhere else. Highly recommend for anyone studying tarot or astrology! I loved the decon course so much, I knew this was going to be my next series and it is everything I wanted it to be!
This is a masterclass on the tarot and how the card themes dovetail with astrology. The knowledge gained from this lecture will enhance and elevate your understanding of both forms of divination. Highly, highly recommended.
