About this Event

About the workshop: In this two-hour workshop, we’ll utilize Tarot to flush out the unnecessary elements in your writing and focus on the important aspects. We’ll draw cards together and learn Tarot spreads to help shape our story’s focus, set our intentions, and pull our pieces from abstraction into creation. From there, we will work on the following:

  • Abstractions drawn from our card pulls
  • A free writing/automatic/spirit writing exercise focusing on our memories/subconscious
  • Finishing with image touchstones

An entry/beginner-level knowledge of Tarot is strongly recommended along with your own Tarot or Oracle deck.

Tickets are $10-20 sliding scale, pay-what-you-can.
