arcana
tarot mastery mastermind
A three-year mastermind for beginners and advanced readers alike. You will develop genuine psychic ability, learn to heal through the oracular arts, and walk a path of deep self-realization — guided by four ancient lineages and three decades of lived practice.
Where psychic craft
becomes a living practice.
Arcana is a monthly subscription mastermind — a living weekly practice, not a finite course. Every Thursday, 1:00–2:30 PM EST, up to 20 members gather live to develop real craft: reading with depth, opening to the oracular and healing dimensions of the cards, and walking a genuine path of self-realization.
No prior experience required. Damian builds every technique from the ground up — three decades of practice distilled into a structure that holds beginners with care and pushes advanced readers far beyond where they've been.
What makes Arcana singular is four living lines of transmission woven together: an original Tarot methodology, somatic depth psychology, Mexican shamanic earth traditions with over 4,000 years of oral lineage, and the Mitsung — fifteen centuries of tantric-Taoist energy transmission. The result is not just better readings. It is a path of self-realization, psychic development, and genuine healing capacity.

Mitsung Lineage

Four ancient lineages.
One living practice.
Each line is a complete tradition in its own right. Each amplifies the other three. Together they open a path of psychic development, healing, and self-realization that no single tradition can offer alone. No other program on Earth holds all four.
Tarot as Universal Language
Original Methodology · 5 Elements · Numerology · ArchetypesA symbolic language for reading any deck, any tradition — without a guidebook. The foundation from which every other line is read.
Somatic Depth Psychology
Reichian Characterology · Jungian Individuation · Shadow WorkThe body and psyche as the living text beneath the cards. Somatic armoring, Jungian archetypes, and shadow as the hidden author of every spread.
Shamanic Earth Traditions
Purépecha · Nahua · Zapotec · 4,000 yearsWu Shamans · Wudang Temple · 5,000 years
Mexican oral shamanic traditions and the esoteric qigong of Wu shamans and Wudang Temple — ancient living lineages that develop the energetic body and open oracular perception.
Esoteric Western Lineages
Alchemy · Kabbalah · Magdalene · TemplarsMitsung Lineage · Tantra & Taoism · 15 Centuries
Alchemical symbolism, the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, the arc of Mary Magdalene and the Templars, and the Mitsung — fifteen centuries of tantric-Taoist transmission that carries genuine healing power.
90 minutes. Every Thursday.
Each session follows a precise structure that deepens every week as your practice — and your perceptive capacity — evolves.
Grounding & Collective Card
A check-in and collectively pulled theme card that sets the energetic field of the session. A ritual that trains the group to read energy before a single word is spoken.
The Deep Dive
The week's esoteric concept or therapeutic framework drawn from the three-year curriculum — always building from clear foundations so beginners and advanced readers move forward together.
Hot Seats & Readings
Live readings, breakout rooms, and structured peer feedback. You will read — and be read — developing real psychic and healing capacity in a safe, skilled container.
Q&A & Intention
Closing reflections and setting the week's homework or personal practice intention. You leave every session with something concrete to work with.
A roadmap built for
the long game.
Mastery is not an 8-week sprint. This curriculum begins at the very foundations — so every student, regardless of experience, builds on solid ground — and unfolds across three years into genuine psychic craft, healing capacity, and self-realization.

The right seat
at this table.
Arcana is selective by design — not by experience level. These 20 seats are for people ready for the long game, whether they are picking up their first deck or have been reading for years.
This is for you if…
- You're a complete beginner who wants to build a proper, thorough foundation from the start
- You already read tarot and are ready to go far beyond the guidebook
- You're drawn to psychic development, healing, and the esoteric dimensions of the cards
- You're serious about building or professionalizing a practice
- You thrive in a small, committed, high-quality learning community
- You can commit to showing up live, most Thursdays, for the long game
- You are drawn to energy work, shamanic practice, and genuine self-realization
This is not for you if…
- You're looking for quick results without genuine practice commitment
- You're looking for a self-paced, passive video course
- You only want tarot for personal journaling, not for reading or healing others
- You're not ready to invest consistently — in time and money
- You're looking for a quick certification you can finish in 8 weeks

Do I need prior tarot experience?
No. Arcana is designed to hold complete beginners and challenge advanced readers in equal measure. Year One builds everything from the foundations up — three decades of teaching experience distilled into a structure that leaves no one behind.
Do I need a specific deck?
No. The curriculum is deck-agnostic by design. Year 1 trains you to read any deck fluently, without a guidebook. Bring whatever deck you work with — or none at all yet.
What if I miss a session?
Every session is recorded and uploaded to the Vault within 24 hours. You'll never lose content — though live attendance is strongly encouraged for hot seats and real-time community.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes. Payment plan options (3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month) are available at checkout for the Standard Rate. The Founders Rate is pay in full only. This is a 12-month program commitment.
What is the Mitsung lineage?
Mitsung is an esoteric healing tradition over fifteen centuries old that integrates tantra and taoism into a unified system of energy transmission and distance healing. It is taught within Arcana as part of the Year Three curriculum — and to our knowledge, nowhere else in the context of a tarot practice.
When do sessions happen?
Every Thursday, 1:00–2:30 PM EST. That's 10:00 AM PST / 6:00 PM GMT / 7:00 PM CET. Sessions run for exactly 90 minutes.
8 founding spots.
One permanent rate.
The first eight people to commit lock in the Founders Rate — $800 for Year 1, and that same rate held for all three years of the program. Once those 8 seats are gone, only the Standard Rate remains.
