June:
Tarot: The Series
The five classes can be taken as a series or individually.
Tarot is a divinely inspired tool of our intuition. Archetypal images reflect the unconscious knowing and enable us to gain knowledge that we might otherwise miss. Through lecture and play the cards will become allies of our self-growth and pragmatic tools for our lives.
No experience necessary. Please bring a deck if you have one (decks will also be provided).
Getting to Know Tarot
Wednesday June 9 - 7:00pm to 9:00pm - $25.00
Intuitive exercises, card play, and discussion begin our relationship with Tarot.
Elemental Tarot
Wednesday June 16 - 7:00pm to 9:00pm - $25.00
The four suits tell us a great deal about the energy we are working with. This class focuses on the suits including the mysterious court cards.
Big Secrets
Wednesday June 23 - 7:00pm to 9:00pm - $25.00
The Minor and Major Arcana each hold their own wisdom.
One tells us what, the other why.
Read Like A Pro!
Wednesday July 7 - 7:00pm to 9:00pm - $25.00
For every level of Tarot practitioner reading the cards is more than intuition. Our ability to communicate what the cards say is the key to giving a good read.
Tarot Cosmology
Wednesday July 14 - 7:00pm to 9:00pm - $25.00
The deck we choose is as important to our reading ability as the meaning of the cards themselves. Each deck is unique. The hows and whys of picking the right deck is the topic for this class.
Experience the cards in new ways: the hidden symbols, the core values, diverse spreads, getting the right question, and more.
Aura Shielding
Waterloo - www.conscioustraveller.com
Saturday June 12 - 10:00am to 2:00pm - $60.00
Aura Shielding focuses on understanding personal and professional boundaries at all levels; emotional, physical, energetic, and then creating a shield that allows the individual to experience connection without interference and the sometimes hazardous exchange of energies. The art of shielding is as intrinsic to our well being as breathing. The toxins in our physical environment are mirrored by the toxins exuded daily by our psychic and emotional exhalation. It is sometimes useful to have a step-by-step process to guide us in developing a practical, personal routine that ensures our psychic/energetic health.
