Saturday 14 June: Picking up the threads - storytelling with Annie Dunlop

“Stories tell us what we already knew and forgot, and remind us of what we haven't yet imagined”…Anne Watson

This sounds just like TAROT!

Annie Dunlop will conduct a practical workshop focussing on the art of storytelling, on linking the cards and telling the Seeker's story. Trusting your intuition and being guided by the symbology of the cards is important for this process to work. So come along - get to know your 'inner teacher' and have fun! And, don’t forget to bring your cards.

Annie Dunlop is a Professional member of the Guild who reads and teaches Tarot in Patterson Lakes. Her beginner’s class is called Tarot and the Journey of Self. She also runs a master class for more advanced students.

A recording of this session is available for purchase from the online shop.

Saturday 12 July: Judgement with Linda Marson

An angel sounds the trumpet and the dead rise naked from their coffins. Pamela Colman Smith’s image on the Rider-Waite card of Judgement is powerful, conjuring up that final day when we are called to account for our lives. In this workshop we explore the symbolism of several Judgement card images and how that might translate into advice during a Tarot reading. You’ll see a video clip from the TV series, Ticket, Passport and Tarot Cards, where the Judgement card takes us to Berlin, the city of transformation where the past, symbolised by the Berlin Wall, came tumbling down in 1989 and the world rejoiced. The session will conclude with a guided visualisation to the music of Judgement from a CD called Tarot - music composed for the Major Arcana by Réjean Paquin.

Linda Marson is President of the Tarot Guild of Australia, author of Ticket, Passport and Tarot Cards and producer of a television series based on the book. Through her company, Spiritual Adventure Tours, Linda offers tarot-guided journeys to exotic destinations. More information at www.tarotjourney.com.au.
