If like me you missed the most recent Tarosophy TarotCon gathering in Dallas, Texas, or the one in the UK earlier this year, here’s your chance to see a bit of what was going on.
As expected, it looks fascinating, and I imagine that next year’s events are going to be fabulous as well. Tarosophy TarotCon is planning Tarot conventions for 2013 in the US, UK, Australia, and the Far East.
I hope I manage to make it to at least one!

Tarot Professionals has entered the Tarot Conference scene in North America with their first ever Tarosophy TarotCon 2012.
It’s going to be held in Dallas, Texas October 19th-21st.
The line up is pretty incredible – Barbara Moore, Robert M. Place, Ellen Lorenzi-Prince, Bob O’Neil, Carrie Paris, and of course Marcus Katz, founder of Tarot Professionals and Tarot-Town.
In addition to the headline speakers, there’ll also be evening workshops available with luminaries the likes of Mary K. Greer, Enrique Enriquez, Katrina Wynn, and many more.
Dan Donche of the Inappropriate Tarot will be the guest M.C., and Toronto’s own James Wells will be an after-dinner speaker.
It’s sounds just fabulous! Book soon to take advantage of the early-bird specials.

World Tarot Day
May 25th is officially World Tarot Day. How will you make it special?
•Get a reading or give a reading.
•Buy a deck or give one away.
•Randomly choose a chapter from your favourite Tarot book and read it. Or try it with a book you’ve not yet started.
•Make up a spread, or throw your cards on the floor and read only the ones that fall face down.
•Join a Tarot group, or organize a meet-up in your own area, or on-line.
•You can start a Tarot journal, paint a Tarot card, or listen to a Tarot podcast (can I recommend Beyond Worlds.)
There’s so many things you can do to celebrate. But one thing for sure, check out the official World Tarot Day website.
Festivities are already in high gear. You can take part in the World’s Largest Tarot Reading, or submit a short video to the Tarot VideoWall. Just finish the sentence, ‘Tarot is ….”
And if you like finishing sentences, why not help save the Fool’s dog. Complete the sentence, “I believe the Fool’s Dog must stay on his journey because …”
This activity is kind of important. There’s talk that if the good people at World Tarot Day don’t get enough responses, the Fool’s Dog might just retire. What then?
And then there’s the Fool’s Fair. It’ll only be happening on World Tarot Day and it’s shrouded in secrecy.
There’ll be special offers, prizes, education and promotion available for only a few moments at a time throughout the day, all day.
It’s going to be fun! Happy Tarot Everyone!

Beyond Worlds - Tarosophist of the Year 2010
What an incredible honour!! Beyond Worlds has been voted Tarosophist of the Year by the highly esteemed international Tarot association, Tarot Professionals.
Marcus Katz, founder of both Tarot Professionals and the fabulous Tarot Town wrote in the award release:
“Donnaleigh, Storm, Theresa and Georgianna have consistently produced an educational, wide-ranging, contemporary, relevant, fun, accessible, professional and well-produced online radio show for Tarot. Their guests have included Lon Milo Duquette, Rachel Pollack, Mary K. Greer, and I personally discovered how friendly and professional they were as hosts when I appeared on the show during the year.
Donnaleigh’s infectious enthusiasm and courteous questioning gets the best out of every guest, supported by Storm’s sharp wit, Theresa’s no-nonsense approach and Georgianna’s down-to-earth authenticity. As a group, they are the ideal ‘four suits’ of a full deck and demonstrate the diverse heart of the Tarot.”
I’m blown away. And so very grateful to Marcus and Tarot Professionals. And of course, to all of our listeners. It truly would be pointless without you.
My co-hosts Donnaleigh de LaRose, Storm Cestavani and Theresa Reed are three of the best Tarot readers I’ve ever met, not to mention very excellent people. I feel blessed to be on this Tarot adventure with them.
Thank you all! And thank you to the cards.
