We will travel into the World Tree to experience the three multidimensional realms of the lower, middle, and upper worlds, or as Carl Jung termed them, the sub-conscious, conscious, and super-conscious parts of ourselves. This is a positive way to increase your intuition and connection and bring back information for divination, healing, and ceremony.

Quiet and Calm Track events are not streamed live and are not recorded. Virtual attendees can view a pre-recorded video explaining Shamanic Journey Work.

So you want to make your own deck. Should you shop it out to the publishing houses? Should you do a Kickstarter? How much money might it cost you? What if you can't draw? How will you avoid counterfeit copies? There are so many questions and it's all so terrifying.... right? Join indie publisher Stacey Williams-Ng, founder of La Panthère Studio, for an "ask me anything" session to get ready for the scariest parts of publishing a deck.

Quiet and Calm Track presentations are not live-streamed on Accelevents. However, a recording related to the session will be provided on the Accelevents portal.

Runes are powerful. They can stand alone or augment other forms of divination. Although it sometimes seems counterintuitive, their simple designs allow the reader to tap into a vast network of information. In this workshop, we’ll cover the basics of runic divination, from dowsing to casting, with an emphasis on the Elder Futhark alphabet.

Roxi will discuss her artistic and healing journey through creating her Pearls of Wisdom Tarot. She embarked on the journey after losing her health, her youngest son Shea, and her Mother, Margaret, in a short period of time.  Having studied art therapy and Jungian psychology at University, Roxi understood that art was indeed great therapy to overcome depression and grief. Though she did not know much about Tarot when she started, learning about each card was healing, as she very much "lived" each card as she painted it.

Roxi will discuss how she used her own symbolism, including the language of flowers, Runes, and crystals, in her deck while still adhering to the underlying structure of the Tarot and the meanings of each card.

Participants are encouraged to bring items, pictures, or small trinkets to honor their loved ones in Spirit.

This is a sacred and high-vibrational event! However, these circles are not all serious. Expect good vibes and lots of laughter.

Recording and/ or taking notes is encouraged.

Do you struggle to wrap your brain around how to read tarot more organically? Does your analytical brain get in the way of tapping into your inner voice? Does the word "psychic" make you feel uneasy? Do you ever feel like you're just not "that type" of tarot reader? You're not alone. I spent years trying to reconcile my deep desire to intellectualize how tarot works with the often unexplainable experiences I had working with the cards. Eventually, I realized intuition exists in the liminal space between what is logical or explainable and what defies explanation.

In this workshop, we'll explore this liminal space together while I encourage you to explore what happens when you spend less time overthinking and more time trusting your instincts. I'll also share my favorite technique for dipping your toes into intuitive tarot reading in a way that appeases your more analytical side. I designed this method to be simple, accessible, and repeatable so that you can focus on improving your ability to read intuitively in a practical way. If that sounds good to you, I hope you'll join me. See you there!

How are the elements in your life fairing & what are your levels? Let’s embark on a fun yet practical tarotfull way to check your oil, I mean elements of your life. What do your guides, ancestors and angels need to share with you about your pixie dust tank, is it full or running on empty? Is the doubt filled space trash orbiting around clogging up the works? Most awesomely, what is your 5th element of the moment? The 5th element is the divine catalyst for change that brings down inflammation, creates opportunities, or zaps what needs to be pruned and essentially what can save the day. It reveals the truth and identifies the myths floating around ripe for pruning. In this workshop we embrace reversals, in fact they are acknowledged as the nitty gritty of important information. All you need is a tarot deck, pen and paper for extra notes, worksheets will be provided.

This presentation is based on Anthony's recent writings and teachings. AstroEdit intrinsically links astrology with fashion. This goes beyond the concept of “dressing for your season” or wearing what’s currently on trend. This is about finding a unique and tailored experience simply by working with your own astrological chart. Something more long-lasting. Something more you. We will be exploring how to style yourself based on your chart and transit and take a closer look at how astrology influences the fashion industry as a whole. Additionally, there will be elements of palmistry, tarot, as well as a PDF guide and ritual kit for you to take home and try out AstroEdit for yourself. 

This presentation will introduce the concept of Manifestation and explore the most significant aspects of this process.

The history, origins, and uses of Magical practices, Mystical principles and Metaphysical energies and why they are useful tools in “manifesting” will be defined and explained.

You will learn how to use them separately or in combination to achieve new dimensions in your life.

By attending this entertaining and enlightening lecture, you will immerse yourself in a vibrant, sacred experience that will enhance your ability to elevate your spiritual practices, bring you on a transformative journey, and alter your future!

Have you been called to be a messenger of destiny?

- The financial matters: Increases, bonuses, cuts and withheld wages.

When we approach a divination session, be it tarot, oracle, or astrology, there are, in many cases, two minds involved: the querent and the diviner. While the cards or charts are laid out and the diviner interprets, the querent has their own beliefs and blocks. The diviner must also make mental leaps about the querent's motivations, desires, and behavioral choices. In this interactive session, we will walk through the mental gymnastics we undertake as a diviner or as a querent and explore the social cognition involved in divination. Come with an open mind, and leave with adventures.

Christiana and Aerik lead the conference in the closing ceremony. Join us in a moment of appreciation and affirmation as we share our joy of tarot, art, divination, and community.
