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.

Today

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.

Week 3

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.

Week 6

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
Add-on · ₹10,000 on top of the course

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.

01 Foundation
Weeks 1–2

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
After this module You can structure a real question and read a card from its image — no more random draws.
02 The Nine Numbers
Weeks 2–3

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
Numerology embedded Numbers 1–9 map to Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Rahu, Mercury, Venus, Ketu, Saturn, Mars — and to the King, Queen, Teacher, Hustler, Prince, Guru, Saint, Worker, Commander. Once you know them, a Three of Cups and a Life Path 3 read as the same energy in two different lives.
After this module You read a person's numbers and a card's number as one system — the thing that makes every later card click.
03 The Major Arcana
Weeks 3–4

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)
Numerology embedded Every Major reduces to a digit (XVI Tower → 1+6 = 7). You'll read the card and its number together — which is why two readers pull the same Major and one sees twice as much.
After this module You read any Major on sight and know which life-phase it's pointing at.
04 The Minor Arcana
Weeks 4–5

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
Numerology embedded The same number across four suits is one energy in four rooms. A Three of Cups and a Three of Swords share a numerology backbone — you read both from it.
After this module The whole deck is readable — by number and suit, not by memory.
05 Reading Skills
Weeks 5–6

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
After this module You give a clear answer — yes, no, or conditional — and back it from the cards.
06 Spreads & Capstone
Final weeks

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)
After this module You run a full spread for another person, narrate it clearly, and leave certified.

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

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.

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.

Rated 5 out of 5.

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.

P
Priya M.Foundation Cohort member
Rated 5 out of 5.

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.

A
Ananya K.Foundation Cohort member
Rated 5 out of 5.

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.

⌛ Applications close when the 5 seats fill. The next cohort starts within weeks of acceptance — accepted applicants get the exact dates first.

Questions before you apply.

If your question isn't here, drop it inside the application form — the answer comes back with your acceptance email.

Do I need any prior tarot experience to learn tarot reading in this cohort?
No. The cohort is taught from absolute zero. Half of every cohort to date has been first-time learners. The other half tend to be self-taught readers who want to fill gaps — usually around the numerology and the Minor Arcana.
Why teach tarot with numerology — what's the link?
Every tarot card carries a number. Major Arcana 0–21, Minor Arcana 1–10, court cards by their position in the suit. Numerology is already inside the deck — most courses just don't explain it. Once you learn the link, you read faster and more accurately, and you read across both systems for the same client. More on the numerology side here.
What if I miss a live call?
Every live call is recorded and shared in the cohort group within 24 hours. The cohort still works best if you make 80% of the calls live, since the second half is Q&A — but life happens, and you won't be left behind for missing one or two.
Is this an online tarot course or in-person classes?
Online — fully on Google Meet. Cohorts have included students from Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Gurugram, the Gulf, the UK, the US, Australia, and Singapore. The 1:1 mentorship calls are also on Google Meet, scheduled in your timezone.
What language is the cohort taught in?
A mix of Hindi and English — naturally, the way Lavanya does her readings. If you understand either, you're fine. The workbook and slides are in English. Past cohorts have included students whose first language is Tamil, Bengali, Marathi, or Punjabi, and none have struggled.
Do I get a certificate at the end of the tarot reading course?
Yes — if you pass the capstone. The capstone is three supervised practice readings done in cohort weeks 5 and 6, with written feedback from Lavanya on each. Pass the capstone and you receive the Tarot With Lavanya — Foundation Reader certificate, with a public verification URL on this site.
Can I take paid clients after the cohort?
Most graduates start with friends and family for the first three months, then move to paid readings around month 3–4. Lavanya covers the practical side in the final week — pricing, ethics, what to never promise, and how to write a client brief. The certification helps with credibility but the practice is what builds the reputation.
What deck should I buy?
Rider–Waite. It's the default for a reason — clear pictures, widely taught, every later deck builds on it. Once you've finished the cohort, switch to whatever deck speaks to you. Lavanya recommends one Rider–Waite from a specific publisher (shared in the welcome email after acceptance).
What if I don't get accepted?
Applications are reviewed within 48 hours. If the fit isn't there — usually because of timing, language, or the fact that you're looking for ritual remedies rather than reading skills — you'll get a personal email back with the reason and a recommendation for what would suit you better. No money is taken until you're accepted.
Do I get an app, or is it only live classes?
Both, and they're one programme rather than two. On the day you're accepted you get a login to learn.tarotwithlavanya.com: 20 chapters across 6 modules, all 78 cards to study and practise, the daily card, your journal, the class schedule with its join link, and every recording. The live calls are where Lavanya teaches and corrects you; the app is where you put in the hours between them.
Does the Learn app work on a phone?
Yes. It's built for the phone first, and you can add it to your home screen so it opens like any other app. Most students do their daily card and their review drill on mobile in a few minutes, and save the laptop for the live classes.
What's the Business Center, and do I need it?
No, you don't need it. The ₹25,000 cohort is complete on its own — you can finish every chapter, pass the capstone and earn the Foundation Reader certificate without it. The Business Center is a ₹10,000 add-on for the separate problem of being found by clients: a guided Google Business Profile build, where else to get listed, and what people near you are actually searching for. Add it whenever you want, including months after the cohort ends.
How is this different from other tarot reading courses in India?
Three things. One: Lavanya teaches it herself, every cohort. Two: numerology is taught alongside tarot, not as a separate course. Three: the cohort is capped at 5 — you actually get seen and heard. Most online tarot courses in India are pre-recorded, taught by an assistant, and run with 200+ students. This one is the opposite of that.

Apply for the cohort.

A two-minute application. Lavanya reviews every submission personally. You'll hear back within 48 hours either way — with cohort dates, investment, and the start week. No payment is taken until you're accepted.
