Learn tarot reading the way Lavanya reads it — a live course.
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, a Foundation Reader certificate on completion, and a teacher who has done 4,000+ paid sessions since 2019.
Where you'll be in six weeks.
Not "what we cover" — what you'll be able to do. The cohort is built backwards from the last day.
Cards feel like vocabulary you haven't learned
You pull a card and reach for the booklet. Meanings feel arbitrary, spreads feel like guesswork, and you don't trust what you see.
The deck starts making sense as a system
Major Arcana mapped, numerology clicking underneath every card. You're reading daily for yourself — without the booklet.
You read for a stranger — supervised, certified
Three real readings with Lavanya's written feedback, a capstone, and a Foundation Reader certificate. You leave reading, not memorising.
Other tarot courses hand you a PDF. We hand you an app.
Tarot apps teach you alone, with nobody checking your reading. Live courses teach you well, then leave you with a Zoom recording and a notebook. This is the only tarot course in India that's both — pick a screen and see what's actually in there, before you apply.
One screen tells you what to do next
You sign in and the app already knows where you stopped. Your next live class, the chapter you were reading, today's card. Nothing else competing for your attention at 11pm on a Tuesday.
- Next class with a countdown and its join link
- Resume the exact chapter you left
- Your streak and today’s draw, one tap away
Twenty chapters, written the way Lavanya teaches
Six modules: foundations, the Majors, all four suits, the courts. Chapters open as you go, so nobody hands you 78 cards on day one and calls it a syllabus.
- Short lessons you can finish in one sitting, on a phone
- The light and the shadow of each card, side by side
All 78 tarot cards. Study them, then prove you know them.
Open any card for the Rider–Waite image and the full breakdown, including the number underneath it. Then switch to practice: the app deals a card, you read it from the picture, and mastery is counted card by card.
- Real card images, not a text list of meanings
- The numerology of each card shown alongside it
- Mastery tracked out of 78, so you know what's shaky
One card a day. One line. That's the whole habit.
Draw, write a single line about what you see, and the streak handles the rest. Cards you keep misreading come back in a short review drill instead of quietly staying weak.
- A 60-second draw, not another 40-minute lesson
- A review queue built from the cards you keep getting wrong
Every reading, and what actually happened after
Ask a real question, draw, and the reading is saved with your interpretation. Weeks later the app asks you how it turned out. That loop is the difference between guessing and reading.
- Question, cards and your read, kept together
- Outcome prompts on readings you'd otherwise forget
- Notes you take inside any lesson land here too
Your class schedule, with the join button on it
The whole cohort calendar lives on one screen. Next class up top with a countdown and the Google Meet link, every past class marked recorded. Nobody hunting a link in a WhatsApp thread at 6:58pm.
- Countdown to the next live class, then one tap to join
- A short practice prompt before each class
Miss one, watch it the same night
Every live class is recorded and posted within 24 hours, and it plays inside the app. No YouTube rabbit hole, and no asking someone in the group to forward a link.
- Up within 24 hours of the class, and it stays up
- Plays inside the app, phone or laptop
A tarot certificate that unlocks, not one that arrives
Finish the chapters, pass the quizzes, complete the supervised readings. Then the Foundation Reader certificate unlocks, with a verification link any client can check. Attendance alone doesn't open it.
- Earned on completion, not on showing up
- A public verification URL on this site, so a client can check it
For when you want paying clients, not just readings
A ₹10,000 add-on, bought separately and whenever you like. Same login, one extra tile on the sidebar. It covers the part nobody teaches you: how a stranger finds a tarot reader, and what they searched to get there.
- A guided Google Business Profile build
- Listings, and what to fix when enquiries don't become bookings
- Local search demand, in plain language
Your login is created the day you're accepted. The chapters, your notes and every recording stay with you after the six weeks end, and it installs on a phone like a normal app.
Apply for the cohort →All 78 cards. Plus the numerology behind them.
Most courses teach the generic meaning of a tarot card. This one is six modules across twenty chapters — foundations, the Nine Numbers, the Majors, the four suits, reading skills, then live practice — the same numbers-and-suit method Lavanya uses in paid readings.
What tarot is, how the deck works, and how to ask a question the cards can answer.
Tarot as GPS for decisions, not destiny — the 60% karma / 40% free will frame. The 78-card system, the four suits and their elements, and how a single card is actually read from its picture.
- What Is Tarot? — and what it won't do
- Your tool: the deck, and how to work with it
- The 78-card system: Major vs Minor
- Four suits & elements — what each one governs
- How a card is read — picture first, not booklet
The numerology layer most tarot courses skip — taught as its own module.
Every card carries a number, and every number is a living personality with a ruling planet. Learn the Chaldean 1–9 the way Lavanya uses them in paid readings, then the tools that read a person's chart alongside their cards.
- The Nine Numbers — 1 to 9, planet by planet
- The Friendship Table — which numbers work together
- The Numeroscope grid — reading a birth chart
- Colours — the shade each number carries
22 big life themes — grouped as one story, not 22 cards to memorise.
The Fool's journey, mapped phase by phase, each card paired with its numerology reduction so the meaning compounds. You stop memorising and start seeing where a Major points.
- Phase 1 — Discovering Yourself (0–4)
- Phase 2 — Real-World Hits (5–9)
- Phase 3 — Life Changes You (10–14)
- Phase 4 — Breaking & Rebuilding (15–19)
- Phase 5 — Full Circle (20–21)
56 daily-life cards — number × suit, not 56 meanings to cram.
Wands, Cups, Swords and Pentacles — what each suit governs (drive, feeling, thought, body) and how the number sets the temperature. Court cards come last, because they only make sense once you know the numbers.
- Wands · Fire — drive, momentum, ambition
- Cups · Water — feeling, relationship, intuition
- Swords · Air — thought, decision, conflict
- Pentacles · Earth — body, money, the visible
- Court cards — Page, Knight, Queen, King
Turning cards into an answer someone can actually use.
Quick yes/no verdicts when nuance is the wrong tool, how to phrase and hold a question, and how to trust what you see instead of reaching for the booklet mid-read.
- Yes / No readings — clean verdicts, fast
- The question workshop — phrasing that gets an answer
- Trusting what you see — reading from intuition with structure underneath
- When nuance helps, and when it doesn't
Full spreads, then reading for a real person — live, with feedback.
Three-card, five-card, the crossroads and year-ahead spreads. Then your practice readings, done live and supervised, with written feedback you can use the next day. Pass and your Foundation Reader certificate unlocks.
- Past–Present–Future, crossroads & year-ahead spreads
- Reading for someone who isn't you
- Practice readings — live, supervised, with feedback
- Foundation Reader certificate (verifiable URL)

Most cohort members started with the free class first. Try it, then apply.
Who this cohort is for.
Apply-only because the cohort is small. Both lists below are honest — if you read the second list and nod, save your application.
Apply if you
- Want to read for yourself with confidence, not for Instagram
- Have learnt tarot before but still can't read fluently or confidently
- Have looked into numerology, tarot, or both, and want a real teacher
- Are okay with two live calls a week for six weeks
- Want to read for friends and family, or eventually take paid clients
- Prefer a teacher who says "I don't know" when she doesn't know
Skip if you
- Want a quick certificate to put on your bio
- Want a teacher who promises specific dates and outcomes
- Are looking for crystal remedies, ritual upsells, or paid mantras
- Cannot make at least 80% of the live calls
- Want the cards to tell you what to do, instead of what to consider
How this cohort compares to typical tarot courses online.
Eleven 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 eleven.
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.
What cohort members say about learning with Lavanya.
Her reading practice holds 200+ verified five-star Google reviews. Below is what it's like on the other side of the table — learning the craft from her, live.
I had tried learning tarot from YouTube twice and gave up at the Minor Arcana both times. Lavanya's number-and-suit method made all 56 cards readable within a week — I did a full reading for my sister without opening a reference once. The numerology layer is the thing every other course skips, and it's the thing that makes it stick.
Five people means you can't hide. Lavanya hears your reading and corrects it on the spot — kindly, but precisely. When work ate one of my weeks, the recordings and my practice partner kept me on track. It feels less like an online course and more like sitting beside her while she works.
The supervised readings were the moment it became real. Reading for an actual person with Lavanya observing, then getting her written feedback on exactly where I rushed and where I read well — no recorded course can give you that. I came in a sceptic about paying this much. I'd pay it again.
Two packages. Both stated up front.
₹5,000 courses give you a PDF and a certificate mill. This is the opposite: 5 seats, live teaching, supervised real readings, 1:1 mentorship — priced like the small-group apprenticeship it is. The course on its own is the complete thing; the second package only adds the business tooling, and you can add it later.
