## Arrival & Grounding (10 minutes)

Light a candle and everyone does a check in.

Purpose: Shift from daily life into Tarot space.

• Brief welcome and framing of the theme
• 2–3 minutes of quiet grounding or breath
• Optional opening prompt:

> “What feels present or active for me right now?”

No sharing yet — let the cards speak first. Pull one card for this.

***

## 2. Warm-Up Pull: One Card, Many Layers (15–20 minutes)

Practice:
Each participant pulls one card in response to:

> “What energy is most available to me right now?”

Facilitation tips:

• Ask participants to name one familiar meaning and one new or personal insight
• Encourage sensory or image-based language
• Keep shares to 1–2 minutes

This reinforces fluid, non-fixed meanings — key for intermediate readers.

Practice Tarot Readings with each other!

## 3. Focused Teaching: A Single Card Through Multiple Lenses (20 minutes)

Choose one card (Major or Minor) to explore together.

### Possible lenses:

• Upright vs. shadow expression
• Inner vs. outer manifestation
• Psychological vs. situational meaning
• How the card behaves in different spread positions

Group activity:

• Place the card in the center
• Ask the group:
• “Where have you seen this card misunderstood?”
• “How has your relationship with this card changed?”

Avoid lecturing — collective wisdom is the goal.

## 4. Main Reading Practice: Context Matters (30–40 minutes)

### Suggested Spread: The Dynamic Three

1. What is conscious or visible
2. What is influencing beneath the surface
3. How to work with this energy skillfully

Instructions:

• Pair up or form triads
• One person reads, one receives, one observes (rotate if time allows)
• Observers note:
• Where interpretation felt grounded
• Where meaning became too fixed or too vague

This builds reading confidence, flexibility, and discernment.

***

## 5. Group Integration & Pattern Noticing (15–20 minutes)

Bring everyone back together.
Prompts:

• “What did you notice about how meaning shifted with context?”
• “Did any cards or themes repeat across readings?”
• “Where did intuition override memorized meanings?”

You may pull one card for the group:

> “What is our group learning how to do better right now?”

Let interpretation be collaborative.

***

## 6. Closing: Embodied Takeaway (5–10 minutes)

• Each person shares one word, image, or sentence they’re leaving with
• Brief gratitude and closing of the space

Optional: invite journaling after the session.
