Tarot Resources: Tarot Organisations & Online Tarot Networks

Tarot Organisations

There are numerous tarot organisations around the world. Some have as their purpose aspects which overlap with those of the Association for Tarot Studies, others focus on views of their founders, and others yet have also as their purpose the desire to see the accreditation of tarot readers. Various views are held not only by various organisations, but also amongst the ATS membership.

Listings here does not imply that the ATS supports nor encourages membership thereof, but rather provides an ease of access to these various organisations, to which we strongly urge that care and responsibility be taken. Nonetheless, so as not to give the impression of careless listing, the organisations which follow appear to each promote tarot studies in their own fashion, and generally engender ways in which tarot enthusiasts may get to meet others.

Of course, we would first and foremost encourage your support to the Association for Tarot Studies.
