Tarot for Transformation

...To know that you are held, supported and loved at every twist and turn, is the greatest of gifts

With the Tarot as a framework, it has become easier, clearer and more intuitive to identify and work with themes, patterns, signs and symbols within my every day. Now, with a broader perspective, I have a greater understanding and acceptance of the experiences I have. Not only that, but I also have the tools to make course-corrections within my life. One of the aspects that drew me to the program was to ¨hold the keys to my life in my hands¨. And much of what I was discovering of myself was how I had given my keys away. Having now come to the end, I find they are in my hands again...And I feel ready, more than ever, for the ride!Every aspect of the program has been given careful consideration and maintains a structured approach while allowing flexibility to change and adapt to meet the needs of both individuals and the group as a whole. I have found this acted as a model and influenced how I have viewed the details and actions in my own life, bringing more awareness and care to what I do, say and think. There were many opportunities within the program to put into practice and receive feedback regarding all that was being learnt through readings, energy attunements and group calls (in addition to day-to-day). I believe I now have a solid foundation for my professional development as well as and alongside my personal growth. Helen is authentic, tenacious, wise and has an unwavering trust in it ´all´; an incredible mentor, guide and role model to have on the journey. It was not always a comfortable or easy ride, and to know that you are held, supported and loved at every twist and turn, is the greatest of gifts. Thank you xx

The unexpected was always something to be expected during the coursework

Where to begin? I just completed Tarot for Transformation with Max. I can see now that meeting Max on his travels in South Africa some time ago was no accident. I have never had another person hold space for me in the way it was held during the coursework. With unconditional love and compassion. Without judgment. Up until I began the course, I don’t remember a time feeling that I wasn’t being judged in almost every relationship and interaction. I understand it now as just the opposite, that it was my own judgment I had to work through. The implications of working through this with Max can’t be understated. They have had and are continually unfolding to have an enormous impact on my life. I look back on the past year and reflect on how the meaning of the course has changed and evolved throughout. This is another testament to Max and his abilities as a guide/mentor. I am reminded of a short story I listened to about a teacher and his students. The analogy is a long hallway which represents the course, as you veer towards the left wall, a guide’s job is to bring you back to the middle. As you veer towards the right wall, the same is true. I think for me I spent a lot of time leaning on both left and right walls, Max was always there guiding me into the middle. The unexpected was always something to be expected during the coursework and I could never have predicted the things that came up and the things I would work through. It blows my mind to think of it now, and even more so when I think about the Iain at the start of the course and the Iain in this moment now. They are completely different people in a way, but I hold a huge amount of love and compassion for that past version of myself. I would not have been able to hold that love without Max’s help. Reflecting as I write this, I realize the biggest testament I can give to this work is that I want to do more, to go deeper. Max and I often spoke about this being a clearing up process, and I am humbled and grateful to be in the position to continue learning and
