Let’s go dance to the wonderful music of Ocho de Bastos. They are part of a two day celebration in Rockville Town Square with other bands and vendors. Bring a chair if you want to pause your dancing.

This event will immediately follow our 11am sound bath in case you’d like to join for both. This will be an opportunity to both tap into divination and intuition. No prior or level of experience needed and you are welcome to participate at your own comfort level. We will spread a variety of tarot decks and attendees are also welcome to spread their decks. One person at a time will have an opportunity to query a deck. Afterwards, everyone else will be invited to intuitively share any insights that may arrive. In this way, all will have the opportunity to both receive and share readings, and the person querying will receive a broad range of feedback and insights. Suggested offering for this event is $15-$25, but please reach out to us beforehand if you would like to arrange alternative consideration. With Love and Gratitude
