This is a drop-in group of Tarot enthusiasts that meets once a week, facilitated by Nicholas O'Donnell, using the Rider-Waite Tarot Deck. The meetings consist of focused open Tarot discussion, Tarot meditations, Tarot theory and theosophy, Tarot reading, Tarot history, Tarot symbolism, etc. The intention is to deepen Tarot understanding and build a local Tarot community. Tarot practice usually occurs after the formal meeting has ended. ​ This is a non-denominational Tarot Study Group. Through building community, study and meditation with the Tarot, we can better understand each other and ourselves. The Tarot is a key to the subconscious, just as are all intuitive and mystical tools. This group is intended to provide a support group and community for those who so chose to use this intuitive, metaphysical, and mystical device. Each meeting will consist of a focused topic of discussion; the first 22 meetings will be focused on the Major Arcana, with open discussion focused on anything associated with the card of the week. Ultimately members of the group may find the passion and drive to have the desire to present to the group themselves. For example, if the focus is the Empress, a group member may volunteer to prepare a presentation of the Empress from their perspective to better express their spiritual, emotional, and intellectual thoughts. These presentations can be done with a PowerPoint, creating interactive activities, meditations, music, art, etc. — any form of creative expression that the group member so chooses to express. After the open discussion and/or presentations, any attendees who have questions about the topic or any topic about Tarot may ask. After questions, a 25-minute mindfulness meditation that is focused on the Tarot will conclude the formal meeting. The members of the group may stay and converse after the formal meeting is concluded. If any insight or arisings happen during the meditation, this is a time for members to share their experiences. ​ ​
