StaarCon News for November 12th
One of the great advantages of a year-long online conference is that it allows us to explore seasonal themes. Tomorrow, Thursday, November 13, join Serena Fox for her monthly Mystic Lounging at 5:30 pm ET. Bring your cards and an open heart, and enjoy some conversation, magic, and sacred play.
On Sunday, November 23, join me, Christiana Gaudet, at 7 pm ET for Winter Tarot. We will discuss all the ways we can infuse tarot into our holiday traditions, and do some holiday-themed tarot exercises.
We are still accepting applications for beta testers for StaarCast, our permanent online home for live classes and recordings from all your favorite StaarCon presenters. We expect StaarCast to be live and ready to join by the end of the StaarCon 5 AfterGlow on January 26, 2026.
If you have a StaarCon 5 ticket that allows you to watch recordings of presentations from the conference, please note that we have until the end of the AfterGlow to view those recordings.
One very popular not-to-be-missed session was Jennifer Cooper Steidley. Jenifer is an artist who has designed two tarot decks. She is also a certified second-degree black belt in Taekwondo. Her presentation on tarot and martial arts was fun and fascinating. Make sure to see it before the end of the AfterGlow, and get ready for new, fabulous sessions on StaarCast.
StaarCast News
This week, the development team is performing final testing before we open the site to the beta testers.
The site will provide a permanent location to save the live recordings created at StaarCon and continue the AfterGlow after the live event concludes.
We want StaarCast to serve as a permanent, year-long convention held in the virtual world. StaarCast members and in-person attendees will have the opportunity to view recordings or participate in virtual events during StaarCon 6, and then after with an annual membership to StaarCast.
StaarCast presenters will be able to use the meeting rooms, chat with members, and create scheduled presentations!
Planned updates to StaarCast will make it even more user-friendly, allowing virtual attendees to view a single presentation or recording on demand, among many other improvements we’ve made based on your feedback.
To sum it up, the StaarCon 6 Main Stage events will be broadcast live on StaarCast, where possible and practical. They will be available as recordings after the live events conclude. StaarCast members can access the recordings with a monthly or yearly subscription, or pay-per-view. StaarCast presenters can use the meeting rooms to create recorded classes or workshops that can be shared by StaarCast members.
