The ways we approach, work with, and interpret tarot are as unique as we are. One of the things we love about tarot is that it offers limitless possibilities.

This hands-on workshop will delight your inner child and engage your inner spiritual explorer through interactive card exercises, helping you learn new things about tarot, yourself, and the world around us.
Bring a tarot deck and an open mind. This workshop is appropriate for all levels of tarot knowledge, from curious seekers to professionals.

Our focus will be the intuitive process rather than rote memorization—learning how the meanings are formed, not simply what they are. After sharing notes and compiling our collective wisdom, attendees will walk away not only with a richer set of divinatory insights, but with a deeper understanding of how the runes speak… and how to listen to them!

Especially good for practitioners with any level of Reiki training, this workshop explores theprofound connection between the Tree of Life and energy healing, providing you with tools to align, balance, and heal yourself and others through the energies of the Sephiroth and their pathways. By integrating the principles of the Hermetic Qabalah with energy work, this workshop offers a holistic approach to spiritual and physical well-being.
Understanding the Sephiroth and Pathways in Healing
We begin with an introduction to the Tree of Life, focusing on its ten Sephiroth and twenty-two pathways. Each Sephirah represents a specific energy archetype, while the pathways symbolize the flow of energy between them. You will learn how these energies correspond to different aspects of the body, mind, and spirit, and how blockages or imbalances can manifest. This segment provides the foundation for understanding the Tree as a map for energy healing.
Practical Techniques for Healing with the Tree of Life
Next, we explore practical methods for using the Sephiroth and pathways in energy healing. You will learn visualization techniques, meditations, and sacred name vibrations to activate and channel the energies of specific Sephiroth for targeted healing. This segment also introduces techniques for clearing energetic blockages, balancing chakras using Qabalistic principles, and directing healing energy through the pathways to restore harmony and flow.
The Tree of Life is a comprehensive spiritual map that connects the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of existence. By working with its energies, you can access a higher state of awareness, tap into divine healing forces, and create lasting transformation. This workshop offers a practical and spiritual approach to healing that integrates ancient wisdom with modern energy work.
By the end of the workshop, you will have the tools and knowledge to use the Tree of Life as a framework for energy healing. Whether you are a healer seeking to expand your practice or a spiritual seeker looking to deepen your connection with this sacred system, this workshop equips you with practical skills to bring balance and harmony into your life and the lives of others.
