Runic Readings
Runic Readings
Sessions of **individual runic readings** are available for beginners all along summer, both online (75 CHF) and offline in Zurich (100 CHF). These sessions are **NOT** esoteric or divinatory. We're approaching runes as **a symbolic system of archetypes** to examine any situation or question that is currently relevant to you. *If you feel stuck in a situation and cannot see a way forward, are facing a difficult decision, navigating a period of uncertainty, or trying to understand a recurring pattern in your life, a runic reading may offer a different perspective.* **You will receive:** • a clearer and systemic understanding of what is actually happening; • insight into hidden influences affecting the situation; • a better understanding of why certain difficulties keep repeating; • greater clarity around available options and their likely consequences; • practical ideas for what to do next. For registration and payment details, send me a direct message or fill in this form [The Alchemist Lab - Contact](https://alchemistlab.ch/Contact)

It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk! Join us for **games**, **talks**, and **connections** with **friends you haven’t met yet**. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in Zurich every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. 🙌 **📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?** We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. 🍭 **🕹 HOW TO JOIN?** **[Take 1 minute to sign up 👈](https://luma.com/ftst6zurich)** ***If you're on your phone and can't access the link, click on the link in the comments :)*** Our events are **limited to 30 handpicked guests** to ensure a cozy atmosphere. **Confirm your spot on the link above** to make it happen!

We only reveal the location to ticket holders 24 hours before the event. **💛 WHAT THEY SAY** 🗣 “This is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.” - Sonya 🗣 “I loved F\*ck the small talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - Brenda 🗣 "it’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other"- Sara 🗣 “F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Matthias **[Read our 130+ Google reviews here 👈](https://goo.gl/maps/TpZy77bfPFkGoikn7)** **🤓 FAQ** **• Can I come alone?** Of course, in fact, we encourage it! **• Can I be late?** Please don't! Late arrivals will disrupt the floooooooow. • **I signed up but never got an invite. Why?** We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 25 people. We believe this is a good number to ensure an awesome experience, and we’ve learned that it’s easier to build connections with smaller groups!

Urban Sketching @ Botanischer Garten GrĂźningen
Urban Sketching @ Botanischer Garten GrĂźningen
< \* \* \* English version below \* \* \* > DE Nach einigen Treffen in der Stadt machen wir wieder einmal einen kleinen Ausflug ausserhalb von Zßrich. Unser Ziel ist der [Botanische Garten Grßningen](https://maps.app.goo.gl/CJaHZA7BzW2MNqDw9?g_st=ic), der auf einem Hßgel oberhalb des historischen Städtchens liegt und den Charakter eines Arboretums hat. Das preisgekrÜnte Schauhaus, Bäume und Sträucher aus aller Welt sowie die unterschiedlichen Aussenräume bieten viele Motive zwischen Pflanzenstudie und Architektur. Und auch bei fast jedem Wetter lohnt sich der Weg: Es gibt mehrere geschßtzte Plätze zum Zeichnen und Unterstehen, nicht nur im Schauhaus selbst. Wir freuen uns sehr, im Garten willkommen zu sein, und danken herzlich fßr die Einladung. **Treffpunkt** Beim Eingang des Botanischen Gartens Grßningen. **Anreise** Mit den Üffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln erreicht ihr den Garten ab Zßrich, Winterthur oder Rapperswil via S-Bahn nach Wetzikon ZH und weiter mit dem Bus 867 bis Grßningen, Im Haufland. Ab Uster fährt der Bus 845 ebenfalls bis Grßningen, Im Haufland. Von dort sind es rund 20 Minuten zu Fuss bis zum Garten. Wer mit dem Auto kommt: Gratisparkplätze sind vorhanden. Mehr Informationen zu Anreise findet ihr unter: [https://www.botanischer-garten.ch/den-garten-besuchen/](https://www.botanischer-garten.ch/den-garten-besuchen/) **Eintritt** Der Eintritt ist kostenlos. Bitte bringt euer eigenes Zeichenmaterial und idealerweise einen kleinen Klapphocker mit. Keine Vorkenntnisse nÜtig. Wir skizzieren rund 2 Stunden, allein oder in kleinen Gruppen, ganz entspannt. Danach treffen wir uns wieder, zeigen unsere Sketches und machen ein Gruppenfoto. Als Leitfaden dienen die Werte der Urban Sketchers: https://urbansketchers.org/de/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- EN After several meetups in the city, it is time for another small trip outside Zurich. Our destination is the [Botanical Garden Grßningen](https://maps.app.goo.gl/CJaHZA7BzW2MNqDw9?g_st=ic), set on a hill above the historic little town and shaped like an arboretum. The award-winning greenhouse, trees and shrubs from around the world, and the varied outdoor spaces offer plenty of sketching subjects somewhere between plant study and architecture. Even in less-than-perfect weather, the visit is well worth it: there are several sheltered places to draw and take cover, not only inside the greenhouse itself. We are very pleased to be welcomed to the garden and would like to warmly thank our hosts for the invitation. **Meeting point** At the entrance to the Botanical Garden Grßningen. **Getting there** By public transport, you can reach the garden from Zurich, Winterthur or Rapperswil via S-Bahn to Wetzikon ZH, then bus 867 to Grßningen, Im Haufland. From Uster, take bus 845 to Grßningen, Im Haufland. From the bus stop, it is about a 20-minute walk to the garden. If you are coming by car, free parking is available. More information can be found here: [https://www.botanischer-garten.ch/den-garten-besuchen/](https://www.botanischer-garten.ch/den-garten-besuchen/) **Entrance** The entrance is free of charge. Please bring your own drawing materials and, ideally, a small folding stool. No prior experience required. We sketch for about 2 hours, solo or in small groups, at an easy pace. Afterwards we regroup, share our sketches and take a group photo. As always, we follow the Urban Sketchers values: https://urbansketchers.org/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich

June Book Club Meetup
June Book Club Meetup
Welcome, readers! Our June read is ***Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible*** ***Voyage*** **by Alfred Lansing.** A work of nonfiction, and one of the most astonishing survival stories in history, we follow Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew after their ship is crushed by Antarctic ice. Stranded in one of the harshest environments on Earth, the men endure months of isolation, freezing temperatures, and near starvation—yet refuse to give up hope. Lansing brings their ordeal to life through vivid detail and firsthand accounts, capturing both the brutality of nature and the resilience of the human spirit. At its core, the story is a powerful testament to leadership, perseverance, and the unbreakable will to survive against impossible odds. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **all** **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

But what starts as a business transaction blossoms into genuine love, challenging both of their lives and leading to an unexpected romance.
