The Tarot tools represent various connections with nature and magic used in modern Wicca & neo-pagan practices. Yet, they are older than the Wiccan traditions we know of today. They present a symbolic means of attuning with nature and the cosmos, for gaining clarity and helpful insights, and for navigating daily life successfully & effectively.
In this series participants will:
Craft and charge 4 sacred objects
Learn about essential spellcraft, creating sacred space, ritual, and how to charge magical objects.
Explore the Tarot and correspondences represented by the suits including the 4 elements and the central pillar, also utilized in modern Wicca & neo-pagan ritual practice.
Discover the history, origins & archetypes of the Tarot.
Each month we will gather for a joyful, magical evening of craft and magic. The evening will include a short lecture about each tool, and a demonstration of its use in the context of magical practice. We will enjoy guided visualization together, supporting us in focusing our energies on how each tool can add to our practice. Most of our time together will be spent crafting with provided supplies, followed by a charging of the tools. Participants are invited to bring their own craft supplies for their projects.
