Learn tarot reading the way Lavanya reads it.
Lavanya's way: straightforward, precise, detailed.
A live, apply-only cohort. Six weeks. All 78 cards. The numerology layer behind every card. Practice readings with feedback, 1:1 mentorship, and a teacher who has done 4,000+ paid sessions since 2019.
All 78 cards. Plus the numerology behind them.
Most courses teach you an overview of the generic meaning of tarot cards. This one teaches you why every card carries a number, how that number sharpens your reading, and the relevance of every element inside every card. Six modules, ~6 hours of core teaching, weeks of supervised practice on top.
What tarot is. How the deck works. How to ask the right question.
Tarot as GPS for decisions, not destiny. The 60% karma / 40% free will frame. The 78-card system. The four suits, four elements, and the numbers that thread through both arcanas.
- The 78-card system, broken down
- Major vs Minor: how each layer works
- Suits, elements, and what each suit decides
- How to phrase a question the cards can answer
- How to prepare yourself before a reading
- What tarot will not do for you
22 big life themes — grouped in 5 phases.
The Fool's journey, mapped phase by phase, so you stop memorising 22 random cards and start seeing one story. Each card paired with its numerology reduction so the meaning compounds instead of competing.
- Phase 1 — Discovering Yourself (Cards 0–4)
- Phase 2 — Real World Hits (Cards 5–9)
- Phase 3 — Life Changes You (Cards 10–14)
- Phase 4 — Breaking & Rebuilding (Cards 15–19)
- Phase 5 — Full Circle (Cards 20–21)
- Each card: hook, meaning, one line to carry
56 daily-life situations. Four suits. Numbers that map cleanly.
Wands, Cups, Swords, Pentacles — what each suit governs (drive, feeling, thought, body) and how the number on the card decides the temperature of the situation. Court cards last, because they make sense only after you know the numbers.
- Wands: drive, momentum, ambition
- Cups: feeling, relationship, intuition
- Swords: thought, decision, conflict
- Pentacles: body, money, the visible world
- Numbers 1–10: same number, four flavours
- Court cards: Page, Knight, Queen, King
Quick verdicts for simple questions.
Not every question needs a five-card spread. The yes/no method gives you an unambiguous answer when you don't have the room for nuance — and teaches you when nuance is the wrong tool.
- When a yes/no read is the right read
- The 3-card yes/no method
- The single-card verdict (and its limit)
- Common yes/no traps to avoid
Putting it together. Reading for someone who is not you.
Three-card spreads, five-card spreads, the crossroads spread, the year-ahead spread. Practice readings done in pairs inside the cohort, supervised, with feedback you can use the next day.
- Past–Present–Future in real time
- Crossroads spread for big decisions
- Year-ahead spread (12 months mapped)
- Reading for a friend without spilling theirs
- Common beginner mistakes to skip
- Building your reading rhythm
Three supervised practice readings. Certification on completion.
You read for three real people inside the cohort. Lavanya and your peers give written feedback on each one. Pass the capstone and you receive the Tarot With Lavanya — Foundation Reader certificate, which links back to this site.
- Three live, supervised readings
- Written feedback from Lavanya on each
- Peer review from cohort members
- Foundation Reader certificate (verifiable URL)
Tarot you can read. Numerology that sharpens it.
Most tarot courses skip the numerology. The numbers are right there on the cards, untranslated. This cohort hands you both. By week three, you read a Three of Pentacles and a Life Path 3 client and you see the same energy, just in different lives.
Number 1 — The Beginning
New starts, identity, leadership. Aces in tarot are number 1. The Magician is number 1. Anyone on Life Path 1 carries this energy as their default frequency.
Number 2 — The Pair
Choice, partnership, balance. The High Priestess (II), the Lovers when reduced (VI → 6 / paired energy), and every Two card across the four suits.
Number 3 — Expression
Creation, voice, growth. The Empress (III) is the headline 3, but every Three across the suits carries some form of expression — emotional, mental, physical, financial.
Number 4 — Structure
Stability, work, foundation. The Emperor (IV), and every Four. When you pull a Four for someone on Life Path 4, the reading doubles in weight — that's the bridge in motion.
Number 7 — Inner Work
Reflection, faith, search. The Chariot (VII), and the heaviest of the Sevens. The Tower reduces to 7 (XVI → 1+6). When you see 7 dominating a spread, the answer is rarely outside.
Number 9 — Completion
Endings, fulfilment, release. The Hermit (IX), the Sun reduces to 1 but its sister Nine of Cups is the wish card. Anyone closing a chapter pulls Nines.
The full mapping (1 through 9 plus master numbers 11, 22, 33) is taught across the cohort. To go deeper before you apply, read the numerology pillar pages or try the free Life Path calculator.

How this cohort compares to typical tarot courses online.
Twelve dimensions that decide the quality of any tarot reading course. The right column reflects what most well-known online tarot courses in India actually deliver.
The "typical" column reflects the format of most well-known online tarot courses sold in India. Specific courses vary; a small number of teachers do match some of these standards. None we've reviewed match all twelve.
Six weeks. Live. Small group.
No assistant trainer. No pre-recorded substitutes for the live calls. Lavanya runs every cohort herself, and the materials are yours forever.
Live cohort calls
Two live group calls every week on Google Meet. Recorded if you miss one. Lavanya teaches, then takes questions for the second half.
1:1 mentorship
Two private 30-minute mentorship calls with Lavanya, scheduled where you need them — usually around weeks 3 and 6.
Practice pairs
You're paired with a cohort partner from week 2 onwards. Read for each other, swap notes, send recordings. Practice is the only way it sticks.
Certification
Pass the capstone (three supervised readings) and receive the Tarot With Lavanya — Foundation Reader certificate. Public verification URL on this site.
Numerology workbook
A printable workbook covering Life Path 1–9, master numbers 11/22/33, and the tarot–numerology pairings for each. Yours to keep, edit, mark up.
Private Whatsapp group
One group, your cohort only, for the six weeks. Ask questions between calls, share spreads, swap practice. Lavanya is in it daily.
Decks & resources
Recommendations on starter decks (Rider–Waite is the default — clear pictures, widely taught). Reading list, journaling templates, spread library.
Alumni access
After the cohort ends, you keep access to the materials and the alumni group. Future cohort drop-ins at no extra cost during the first year.
Lavanya Arora — your teacher for six weeks.
Tarot is taught best by someone who reads daily. Lavanya does. Her practice pre-dates her teaching.

Lavanya Arora
Lavanya has been reading tarot professionally since 2019. Over 4,000 paid sessions across 100+ countries, ranked the #1 tarot reader in India by GHP Magazine, with India's best tarot blog by Feedspot. Her readings are direct, short, and rooted in 60% karma / 40% free will — tarot as GPS for decisions, not destiny. She has been quietly teaching small batches for two years; this is the first cohort opened to public application.
200+ verified Google reviews from her reading practice.
This is the first cohort opened to public application. The reviews below are from Lavanya's paid tarot and numerology consultations — clients who've sat with her one-on-one. The same precision and depth shows up in her teaching. Read all 200+ verified Google reviews here.
I walked in curious and walked out convinced. Lavanya delivers precise, grounded, results-based readings. She identified real situations and predicted with unsettling accuracy. She asked no leading questions and created no emotional dependency. She practices with old-school integrity: calm, honest, and effective.
Whether you are a believer or a nonbeliever of predictions or tarot reading, you must speak with Lavanya at least once. The amount of clarity, understanding, and depth she brings is unmatched. She doesn't sugar-coat anything — she tells you what's there.
So I had a very insightful session with Lavanya. What was most unique is that instead of using tarot as a predictive tool or declaring something set in stone, she explains what each card represents and lets you make your own decisions. That's the teaching mindset.
One price. Everything in.
Six weeks of live teaching with Lavanya, two 1:1 mentorship calls, the numerology workbook, the practice pair system, and the certificate. No upsells, no add-ons.
