The Universe Speaks in Verse: Exploring Connections Between Divination and Poetry
Friday Jan 24, 2025 Live from Lecture Hall 4:30 pm

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.

Tarot: Hope for Broken Hearts
Sunday Jan 21, 2024 Salon B – Regular Session 1:15 pm

We all know that many tarot consultations are about romantic relationships.  Very often, what the cards show us about those relationships is not a pretty picture.

If you are a beginner at tarot reading you might find it hard to give bad news. If you have been reading tarot for a while you surely know that the querent already knows (or strongly suspects) whatever it is that you are about to tell them on the matter.

It is hard to be the bearer of bad news, it is even harder to hear people suffer over someone who clearly does not care for them anymore.

The cards can be used to identify different types of relationships.  In this workshop, you will learn to read about relationships and deliver meaningful but tactful messages.

Paper and Spirit
Friday Jan 21, 2022 Track 1 9:30 am
In this first hour, we will explore the ways we connect with our cards, and the ways we bring intuition and spiritual guidance into our tarot practice. We will explore the dedication of new tarot decks, and the special relationships we develop with individual cards, decks, and with tarot itself. We will learn the practice of invocation which invites Spirit into each tarot session.
Archetypes and Identities
Friday Jan 21, 2022 Track 1 10:45 am
In the second morning session, we will explore our personal connections with individual cards. We will learn how people appear in the cards for our clients, and how we help our clients understand themselves and those around them in a new way. Understanding what a card means in a reading is a different matter entirely from understanding classic interpretations, especially when cards speak of individuals and their behaviors.
Practical Applications
Friday Jan 21, 2022 Track 1 1:00 pm
Part of the magic of tarot is finding truth in divination. In this session we will apply the ideas and techniques we learned in our morning sessions. We will divine for ourselves and each other using short-format divination exercises. What we learn about tarot and about ourselves in this session will be enlightening and transformative.
Tarot Mediumship
Friday Jan 21, 2022 Track 1 2:45 pm
Mediumship is magic. How do we allow our loved ones in spirit to speak through the cards? In this hour we will learn techniques for using tarot as a tool of mediumship. Our ancestors, angels, guides, and guardians are always with us. Tarot can give them voice.
Tarot as a Magical Tool
Friday Jan 21, 2022 Track 1 4:00 pm
In this final session, we will discover how to use individual tarot cards, both in divination and in spell work, to influence outcomes, attract and banish energies, engender healing and enhance ceremony.
Closing Commitments
Friday Jan 21, 2022 Track 1 5:10 pm

In an informal closing ceremony, we will perform some tarot magic to fuel our work with tarot as we go forward.
