A creative and mystical journey into your inner world and relationship with abundance. This soulful, hands-on workshop invites you to explore your personal wealth code — your beliefs, patterns, and energetic blocks around money, success, and receiving. Whether you’re looking to expand income, align with prosperity, or redefine what wealth means to you, this experience helps you consciously step into a more empowered financial narrative. Through the symbolic wisdom of tarot and the expressive power of intuitive collage, you’ll uncover hidden messages around money, self-worth, and value exchange. Together, we’ll identify what wants to be released, strengthened, or activated — and transform these insights into a visual abundance map for the year ahead. Using guided tarot prompts and symbolic imagery, you’ll create your own Wealth Manifestation Collage — part vision board, part personal oracle — a meaningful artwork that reflects the prosperity, opportunities, and confidence you are ready to welcome. This workshop is not about quick fixes or hustle — it’s about alignment, clarity, and conscious wealth. ✨ What You’ll Experience 💰 A gentle group tarot reading focused on money energy, abundance, and personal value 🔮 Guided tarot prompts exploring wealth beliefs, receiving capacity, success patterns, and financial desires ✂️ An intuitive collage session using rich visual materials and prosperity symbols ✍️ Reflection and journaling time to clarify intentions around money, work, and abundance 🖼️ Create a symbolic Wealth Collage to take home as a visual compass for your financial journey 🌙 A warm, creative atmosphere with music and supportive, grounded energy No experience with tarot or art is needed — just openness, curiosity, and a willingness to explore your relationship with abundance. Come discover what your intuition wants to reveal about wealth — through symbols, creativity, and the language of the soul. **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls.

SUPMindfulness è un viaggio sull’acqua e dentro di te. Scopri il modo più semplice e naturale per avvicinarti al SUP e alla mindfulness, nel cuore di Milano. Un invito a rallentare, respirare e ritrovare equilibrio… sospesi sull’acqua. Preparati a scoprire Milano da una nuova prospettiva e ritrovare il tuo benessere anche in città. **Orario** 9.30 - 12.00 **⏱ Durata:** 2h30 **👥 Posti:** max 11 **📍 Ritrovo:** Associazione Nazionale Marinai d’Italia, viale Gorizia 9B (Darsena) **✅ Livello:** adatto anche alla prima volta in SUP **Come si svolge SUPMindfulness sui Navigli di Milano** **1) Lezione introduttiva di SUP (sicurezza + tecnica base)** Fondamentale se è la tua prima volta, utile anche se vuoi perfezionare postura e pagaiata. Useremo tavole ampie e stabili: imparare sarà più semplice di quanto immagini. **2) Mindful Tour: meditazione in movimento** Dalla Darsena al Naviglio Grande vivremo una pagaiata in SUP a ritmo lento, guidata e adatta anche ai principianti che per la prima volta salgono sulla tavola. **3) Meditazione guidata + tisana finale** Al rientro in Darsena uniremo i SUP e ci prenderemo un tempo per una meditazione seduti sulla tavola. Chiuderemo l’esperienza con una tisana da sorseggiare sull’acqua. **SUPMindfulness è uno spazio Digital Detox** Durante l’esperienza mettiamo via lo smartphone, per rigenerarci e vivere davvero il momento: potrai lasciarlo in un locale custodito. Foto e video ricordo li realizzo io, così tu puoi restare presente **Cosa è incluso** * SUP, pagaia, giubbotto di salvataggio * Lezione SUP (per principianti e per chi vuole un ripasso tecnico, con correzioni su postura e pagaiata) **Abbigliamento consigliato** Non serve abbigliamento tecnico. In questa stagione è consigliato abbigliamento sportivo comodo (es. tuta/leggings, felpa, giacca antivento, cappellino). Ai piedi: calzari in neoprene o scarpe da scoglio; se preferisci, anche a piedi nudi. **Cosa portare (necessario)** * Un cambio completo * Asciugamano * Cordino per occhiali (da vista o da sole, se li usi) **Dove ci troviamo** Il ritrovo è alla storica Associazione Nazionale Marinai d’Italia in Viale Gorizia 9B a Milano. Qui potrai cambiarti con calma e lasciare vestiti, borse e zaini in un locale custodito. **Condizioni meteo** L’uscita si svolgerà solo in condizioni meteo favorevoli. In caso di pioggia, verrà rimandata.

So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!

This meeting will be a discussion of the book "the Science of Aliens" by Mark Brake

OpenClaw, NemoClaw, personal assistants, 24/7 agents. What does it all mean? How does it all work and what should we know about it? Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.transformlabs.com/services)

At Unity of Columbus, our Youth and Family Ministry nurtures the spiritual growth of children and families through love, joy, and practical spiritual teachings. Each Sunday, children explore timeless spiritual principles through stories, creative activities, music, and group sharing in a safe and welcoming environment. Our program encourages children to discover their own inner light, express kindness, and develop a personal connection with God. Together, we celebrate diversity, cultivate understanding, and inspire each child to live with purpose and compassion. Parents and families are invited to join in this uplifting journey of learning, laughter, and spiritual connection.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

Friday Night French Conversation Hour Bonjour tout le monde! (English Below) Je vous propose une soirée, ce vendredi qui vient, à l'hôtel Junto à Columbus. 19hr. 20 Mars (Vendredi) 2026. C'est très bien située avec de l'espace extérieur et intérieur, un feu, un café (cafe se ferme à 19h; arrivez tot si ca vous interesse), un resto, et un bar. Le parking est payé est juste en face au musée des sciences COSI. Il y'en a aussi dans les rues mais un peu plus loin. Vous n'êtes pas obligé d'acheter quelque chose, car l'ensemble de l'espace c'est vraiment un grand lobby et de l'hôtel, mais c'est cool. J'ai parlé avec le management et ils sont ravis de nous accueillir, mais il n'y a pas de place particulière réservé pour nous. Ce sera à partir de 19h jusqu'à ? Moi, je suis Brandon. J'aimerais que ce soit un évènement mensuel et si l'espace ne vous convient pas, on peut discuter d'autres options. Je vais porter une casquette bleue et blanche qui dit "Québec." Venez nombreux! A tres bientot \-\-\-\- Hello everyone! It’s been a long time since we’ve had a Friday night French meetup. I suggest that we meet at the Junto Hotel in Columbus this coming Friday, 20 March (friday) 2026 at 7PM. There’s a great spot with both outdoor and indoor areas, a café (which closes at 7 p.m., come a bit early if that interests you), a restaurant, and a bar. Parking is paid and is located right across from the science museum called COSI. There is additional free and paid street parking around at varying distances. It’s a bit expensive, but you don’t have to buy anything since the area is really just a large hotel lobby. It's nice though. I spoke with management, and they’re happy to welcome us, though there’s no specific space reserved just for us. It’ll start at 7 p.m. and go until whenever. I’d like this to become a monthly event, and if this space doesn’t suit us well, we can discuss other options. Speaking and understanding French well is ideal but there may be learners there as well. I’m Brandon. I’ll be wearing a blue and white cap that says “Québec.” Come find us.
