May 2025 Update

It always astounds me when I realise how much the UK Tarot Conference has influenced and attracted attention from overseas, connections made with strangers, whose only link between us is Tarot, have been a huge and unexpected blessing.   I promised that this year, as we reach the end of the major arcana that the event would be special, and thanks to our international Tarot family, it really is shaping up to be more than I could have dared.   You will note I am being rather cryptic, but I am always reluctant to shout from the rooftops until I know 100% things are in place, we are 90% there!

There are only 10 in-person seats left for the 2025 conference. of course, there is always the virtual option, which we have reduced in price to make it accessible to all.  Virtual attendance offers access to knowledge and professional development.  Our ticket includes two days of live viewing, with recordings available for later viewing, (accommodating different time zones and personal commitments). Joining virtually, you will be able to connect with speakers and attendees worldwide, receive download presentation materials, and any supplementary content provided by speakers.

The talented Chris Butler has been working hard on creating Arcana 78, the full deck to complete the Major Arcana deck created to celebrate 20 years of the UK Tarot Conference. The concept of the minors and courts is a stroke of genius, and we will be printing a VERY limited print run.  I know this will be a collector’s item. I will share more next month.

If you follow on social media, you will see that hard copy programmes have arrived, a bundle has been sent to the Atlantis Bookshop.  If you are in London, pop in and grab a copy.  You can also download the programme from the website booking page.   Sponsors once again have been beyond generous and goodie bags will be extravagant!

Finally, you will see on the programme two events I have in the diary for 2026, the ‘Tarot by the Sea’ retreat, Deal, Kent, in March, and ‘The Convergence of Tarot’ event on 6th June in Canterbury.  The retreat is almost sold out, those who came last year loved it so much they have rebooked, but a couple of rooms are left.  http://tarotconference.co.uk/special-events/

That’s all for now, have a great month!

    My ‘Tarot by the Sea’ retreat is just weeks away, I have written new workshops, including one on Shadow work, this is not something I use much, however, as the words flowed, I realise how important understanding shadow energy is.   Exploring our emotions and uncovering what holds us back through shadow work can be incredibly…

    March was a whirlwind. Each year, I attend the London Book Fair with Steven Bright, other than a good catch-up with Steven, the visit is primarily to reconnect with publisher friends and to secure items for the UK Tarot Conference goodie bags. I’m aware that I’ve set a high standard for these goodie bags—arguably the…

    November tends to be a slow month for work, which I deliberately chose. I close my books to focus on things I’ve neglected. Right now, I’m going through my Tarot collection—some decks date back decades, and I honestly don’t know what to do with everything. I’ve accumulated over 100 books and more than 300 decks,…
