Gender Expansive Tarot: Envisioning the Cards Beyond the Binary

You know that there's more to The Emperor than authoritarianism and more to The Empress than motherhood… right? But how do we shed those old paradigms and open ourselves to a truly expansive version of the tarot? If you're longing for a vision of the tarot that is as beautiful, as expansive, and as fluid as humanity, this workshop is for you!

In Gender Expansive Tarot, Eli (The Gender Doula) will bring together various threads of his expertise to weave together a new template for engaging with the gendered archetypes in the tarot in ways that reflect and support the fullness of our humanity.
This offering is for . . .

• Folks who are ready to joyfully deconstruct the gender binary in their tarot practice
• Tarot readers who are ready to stretch their relationship with gender through archetype
• Queer babes hungry for magical, gender-expansive frameworks for relating to femininity and masculinity
  

Together, we will dive deep into what these archetypes mean to us as individuals, identifying the cultural baggage that's ready to be composted and the limitless possibilities that remain. We will uncover the energy beneath the labels and explore what it means to each of us as individuals and how we can work with it in our practices. Finally, we will seek new ways to work with the first four cards of the Major Arcana in readings for ourselves and others.

In preparation for the workshop, please gather the following items:

• Pen and paper or a journal

• Snacks and drinks for nourishment!
• Anything else you need to feel cozy & present
