Divination Bootcamp: Tarot As A Verb
Tarot lives in the body as much as on the table. Before reaching for language, we will enter the physical space of the cards through movement, action, and enacted gesture, engaging each image as a force in motion rather than a fixed picture. This immersive approach turns the cards into living presences that can be stepped into, moved through, and expressed.
In this active, participatory workshop you will:
• Work with trance techniques to inhabit the atmosphere and voice of a card
• Play archetypal charades to unlock nonverbal meaning and symbolic presence
• Use partner and group exercises to bring the cards into dynamic conversation
• Translate physical action into layered, story-rich readings
• Read from direct encounter rather than memorized keywords
This class offers a dynamic blend of play, embodiment, and intuitive skill building, designed to expand your range as a reader and strengthen your fluency in the language of the cards.
Who This Is For:
All abilities welcomed.
Experienced readers can bring one or two cards they want to work with in depth. Those newer to tarot will work with selected Major Arcana cards chosen for their strong archetypal anchors and clear entry points.
What to Bring:
• A tarot deck
• A journal
• Clothes you can move in
