    Crafting the Wheel of the Year at Yuletide Workshop

    $35.00

    Saturday, December 6, 2025 3:00 – 4:30  pm EASTERN US; 8:00 – 9:30 pm UK Taught via Zoom

    Join Deb and Claire as we discuss the second spoke in the Wheel of the Year – Winter Solstice, or Yule. Winter Solstice occurs in the Northern Hemisphere when the sun crosses the Tropic of Capricorn, sometime between December 20 and 22. On this longest night of the year, we honor the gifts the dark time of the year give us, and rejoice in the light that grows daily beginning on the morrow. Yule is a time of celebrating hearth and home, of making merry, and of sharing the bounty of our lives.  The Wheel of the Year is an ever-spinning progression of eight primary holy days in the calendar, four of which are Solar holidays and honor the solstices and spring and autumn equinox.  The other four holidays are referred to as Cross-quarter days, and spin on the wheel alternately between the solstice and equinox days. In this course you’ll learn:
    • What Yule means to us today
    • The historical and cultural significance of Yule
    • Symbols, lore, and legends of the holiday and how they came to be
    • How the holiday shares symbols and beliefs with many other world cultures and belief systems
    • The significance of those symbols and what they mean today.
    • Ways to create Yule rituals and altars and work with crystals and oils of the season
    • How to create Christmas Sigils and Pocket Charms for Yuletide gifts!

    Three-Session Course: Tuesdays, January, 13, 20, 27, 2026 2:00 – 3:30 pm EASTERN US time (Begins at 7 pm London time; 8 pm Paris time)

    If you long to truly begin your journey into the depth and symbolism of Tarot, this introductory course is for you!  We focus on the tried and true meaning of the cards from antiquity.  I've been reading and teaching Tarot for over 40 years, and have taught hundreds to read Tarot.

    My Unlocking the Mysteries of Tarot course teaches you how to begin your lifetime relationship with this oracle!  True Tarot brings together symbolism from many world beliefs, mythologies, and culture, and these serve as the foundation for your work, and lays the groundwork for your work with your intuition in future courses.
    You’ll be introduced in this intensive three-session course to:
    1. The history of Tarot and why it matters in your readings now
    2. The ethics of reading Tarot
    3. How to work with the Major Arcana cards (called keys)
    4. How to work with the Minor Arcana keys
    5. How to interpret reversed keys
    6. Symbolism from Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Celtic, Roman, Greek, and Egyptian beliefs and cultures throughout the keys
    7. How to work with the Four Directions and Four Elements in Tarot symbolism
    8. How key colors impact your interpretation
    9. How numerology relates to Tarot meanings
    10. How to create and interpret a three-key spread
    11. How to create and interpret a Celtic Cross spread
    AND MUCH MORE!!! You’ll have an opportunity to interpret readings I’ll provide, and do practice readings.  Your homework each week will be fun and encouraging! AND…… For a discounted fee of only $175, you’ll be invited to join my advanced course: Deeper Mysteries of Tarot after you complete my Unlocking the Mysteries of Tarot course.  This course, offered soon after this introductory course is completed, enhances your ability to read and interpret the keys, using your intuition in conjunction with the keys. Unlocking the Mysteries of Tarot is taught via Zoom.  I'm so excited about this platform because it allows you to see me and the cards as we work with them.  Each week I'll send you a link to join the class and great handouts!  You’ll be connected to me and your classmates from around the globe!  We meet for one and one-half hours each week for three weeks. You can join from anywhere in the world! Register NOW for Unlocking the Mysteries of Tarot.  When I receive notice from PayPal that you’ve registered, I’ll send you a confirmation email within 24 hours. YOU MUST RESPOND to that email so I know I have the correct email for you (this is important for me to send group Zoom links and handouts!). If you don't see the email, PLEASE CHECK YOUR JUNK, SPAM, PROMOTIONS, SOCIAL and other  FOLDERS. PLEASE NOTE:  Course sessions are not recorded. My teaching style is highly interactive so questions are answered throughout each session, and student confidentiality is respected.  Register early!  Each course section requires a minimum of eight participants.  Also, please note that no refunds can be given after I have emailed the handout for the first session. Here’s what you’re required to have in order to successfully complete Unlocking the Mysteries of Tarot: While there are hundreds? thousands? of Tarot decks today, the Waite-Smith-Rider deck is the ONLY deck from which I teach.  It’s nearly 100 years old, and is based on an early deck from the Middle Ages.  Its universal symbolism is the most comprehensive, and is easy to learn.  Please be sure you get the EXACT deck that is packaged as the one in the photo. There are other versions of this deck, but they lack the clarity and color of this deck.
                      While there are hundred? thousands? of Tarot books today, Eden Gray’s classic is the ONLY book from which I teach my introductory and advanced courses. It is required for this course and for my other Tarot courses. I’ve been working from this book for nearly 40 years, and it is the most comprehensive companion to the Waite-Smith-Rider deck I know.
