It may not be the Oracle of Delphi, but the GAME OF FORTUNE PANEL READINGS - spinning a Wheel of Fortune to choose the reader - will combine chance and reading skills in a way that is sure to be as entertaining as it will be enlightening.

A panel of readers will be convened to perform on-the-spot mini-readings in front of a group. Participants randomly chosen from the audience will ask a question, and we will spin the Wheel of Fortune to see which reader will be chosen to answer.  This exercise is designed to showcase a variety of reading styles as well as give us a chance to mix it up divination-style, play, and have fun.

Casting charms is a unique way to work with the energy of divination. In this workshop you will learn how to create and work with your own oracle using sample kits of charms. Then we will combine the charm casting process with a tarot reading to give it depth and nuance.

This class will feature lots of hands-on practice exercises. Everyone who takes this class remarks about how much fun it is! One bonus of the class is that as a result of the practice exercise, participants receive a free mini-reading from one another so be sure to come to class with questions! Please note that if you are new to tarot there are decks that you can borrow.

Note: To prepare for this class, start saving items from your junk drawers, jewelry boxes, craft supplies, etc. You can use small charms, coins, tiny toys...anything that inspires your imagination! (Sample charm sets will be used in the class to give you an idea.)

Add some star shine to your tarot readings by learning how to recognize the astrological references found in your tarot deck. In addition to their classic meanings, every tarot card also has an astrological correspondence. This workshop will familiarize you with the specific correspondences for the cards in the major arcana. We will also introduce basic building blocks for reading astrology charts by looking at zodiac signs, planets, and houses. Hopefully you'll be inspired to learn more about astrology in the future!
