Hey, all you beginner witches out there! For all that spooks and scares may be dominating the airwaves these days—perhaps you've heard that covens are the new sororities—most pop-culture witchery seems to be sadly bereft of information about the basics of getting in touch with your spiritual side. Case in point: tarot. Does American Horror Story: Coven offer any pointers on perfecting your celtic cross? I don't think so. 

Fortunately, we're equipped to bridge the knowledge gap. And at what better time than now, as the winter solstice is fast approaching? By brushing up on your crowd-pleasing tarot skills, you'll essentially be equipping yourself with the tools to wow any holiday party.

Curious how to do a tarot spread? Director Matin Kazemi gives us the skinny with this bewitching how-to.
