Tarot Group

We will be reading Tarot cards; please bring your cards, a journal or notebook and pen with you.

In July, we began a year-long exploration of the Major Arcana, starting with The Fool and following the journey through all twenty-two cards until we reach The World.
Drawing inspiration from Rachel Pollack's 78 Degrees of Wisdom, we'll explore how the Major Arcana can be understood as a three-part journey of growth, transformation, and self-discovery.

Each month we'll focus on one card, examining its symbolism, themes, and lessons as part of the larger Fool's Journey.
For our August meeting, we'll dive deeply into The Magician.

# 1. Group Check-in

We will begin with a quick check in to connect and arrive together. Optional opportunity to share what you're noticing recently with your daily card draws.

# 2. Exploring 'The Magician' card together.

• Explore the symbolism and meanings of The Magician card
• Compare interpretations from multiple tarot decks and artistic traditions
• Reflect on the gifts, challenges, and invitations The Magician brings into our lives
• Consider how meanings may change depending on the type of reading: relationship, career, health, life's path, etc.

# 3. Group Reading Exercise.

Each participant will choose a question from a list of Magician-themed prompts, draw a card, and reflect on what arises. We'll then share our observations and insights as a group.

# 4. Practice Time!

• We will practice reading for each other. If you'd like to receive a reading, bring a question that you are seeking answers to.
• There is absolutely no requirement to read for anyone else—participants are welcome to read, receive, observe, or any combination that feels comfortable.

Whether you're brand new to tarot or have been reading for years, you're warmly welcome. I look forward to exploring the Major Arcana as they represent the Fool's Journey together!
