Is this for YOU?
is meaningful change important to you? do you want it for yourself and others?
Are you looking for a safe space to discover a direct connection to intuitive wisdom?
Do you feel drawn to the archetypal symbolism of tarot, but don’t know where to start?
Do you enjoy consulting oracle and Tarot cards and would love to know more?
Sam’s approach is very kind, open and creative and I feel empowered to read the tarot for myself, without worrying if I am doing it ‘right’.

You had a tool to go beyond the limitations of the rational mind, discover unconscious blocks and receive guidance and support.
You discovered a community of like-minded individuals and a safe space to explore and learn.

As a lover of the tarot, I joined this course to deepen my understanding and connection with the cards. I enjoyed working with a group where we were sharing our ideas and experiences, expertly guided by Sam. The pace was just right. Sam gave us plenty of time to digest the symbolism and layers of meaning and taught us spreads we could try out straight away. The support materials offered a great point of reference, and I enjoyed the interactive nature of the course.

Why does the Ground & Rise®Tarot Academy exist?
Six years ago I had a dream. Back then, every waking moment was spent looking after my kids, running my logistics business and being a good wife. I believed that everyone else’s happiness was my responsibility. Troubleshooting and firefighting were daily tasks.
The more I did this, the more alone I felt.
In this dream, I was shown that when I felt strong enough in my power, I would share a gift of connecting to intuitive guidance using tarot cards.
A few years later I had left my marriage, exited my business and was writing a thesis for a Master’s Degree in psychosynthesis psychology and coaching. That’s when I remembered the dream.
I spent two years studying the tarot, researching its application and writing a psychological thesis on how it can be used as a coaching intervention tool – witnessing first-hand profound transformation in the coaching space and feeling supported in my own inner transformation as a coach.
But my fears around credibility meant I only spoke about tarot in small circles and my new career as a coach didn’t take off as expected.
It wasn’t until I learned to stop playing small that I fully claimed my power as an intuitive tarot coach and started to speak about it freely. This is when I saw the importance of opening up to source energy as a birthright, which, in this age of over-thinking and over-stimulation, is an act of quiet rebellion against ‘doing’, learning instead how to ‘receive’.
The more I talked about it the more I opened up connections to a growing community who believe and share in this wisdom.
This is why I want to share Ground & Rise®Tarot with you.

A personal note
Learning the Tarot is like coming home. It resonates and touches deeply, probably because it speaks to relatable experience and what it means to be human.
Ground & Rise® Tarot is infused with years of research on how to use the guidance of Tarot to activate the human’s innate capacity to heal and grow.
This combination will give you the confidence to read tarot after only 6 weeks, where interpreting tarot reversals comes naturally, you know which questions to ask and have a language that helps you reframe difficult answers as constructive next steps.
This course has been developed not just as a way to learn the Tarot, but as a starting point to personal and spiritual growth.
