This class will introduce the concept of Tarot Decans, their history and origins, and why they are useful tools in your tarot reading toolkit. You will also learn how to use the knowledge you acquire.
This class is taking the work with Decans to the next level. Not only will you map out your entire astrological chart, but you will also learn how each part of you communicates with one another through the tarot associations of each of your planetary placements.
*Access to your birth chart is required for this class - you can get this for free at www.cafeastrology.com
**House system is not relevant for these classes.
This class will combine all we have learned to create a big picture of who you are. We will introduce other people and how their placements and cards either complement or challenge us. We will then consider ways we can use this information to bring growth to our lives.
The physical realm presents us with vast opportunities for spiritual growth. The traditional imagery found in the Smith Waite system of Tarot offers us countless opportunities to ponder physical concepts such as standing in our authority, moving stuck energy, breaking free from limiting situations, and the need to protect and defend ourselves (physically, mentally, and spiritually). Drawing upon principles and techniques found in Martial Arts, we will compare physical concepts with the spiritual lessons of Tarot, allowing you to see the cards through a new lens. For example, in Martial Arts, we learn a “right” way to fall to protect our head and bones from damage. Rest assured, you will not be asked actually to fall in this class, but understanding the physical mechanics behind this technique can bring a fresh sense of empowerment to the daunting energy of the Tower card. In this class, we will liberate the sense of discomfort associated with some of the most difficult cards in Tarot by applying Martial Arts techniques used in real-world situations and engaging in active physical learning suitable for all abilities.
Expect a lively mix of metaphorical discussion, demonstrations with props, and active student participation in this class. You will also leave with a few newfound self-defense skills under your belt. This physical journey through the Tarot will empower your Tarot practice for you and your clients!
*ALL are invited! This class incorporates a few active yet straightforward movements that can be executed from a standing position, accommodating all fitness levels. Participants are encouraged to try the physical movements, but those who prefer to sit and observe are equally welcome!
Join Mitchell and explore a unique way of creating a brand-new spread from an existing concept, structure, or saying. He will share several spreads he has created. We will create one together as a group and one individually.
Poetry and divination have an inextricable connection. Many divination systems have historical ties to poetry, and Mother Shipton and Nostradamus prophesied in verse. The connections between tarot and poetry are deep and abundant. In this presentation, we will discover innovative ways to connect with tarot and spirit by unlocking our inner oracular poets.
