Tarot in the Feeling Realm with T. Susan Chang

Tarot in the Feeling Realm
When we learn tarot, we often hear a lot about “being intuitive,” or “being psychic”—or, on the other end of the spectrum, memorizing meanings or learning correspondences. But there is a much more familiar capacity that we don’t talk about nearly so much: our own emotions—that vast, colorful palette we paint with effortlessly as we walk through life. The feelings we carry with us every day are low-level acts of enchantment, weakening and strengthening us beneath the surface of our awareness. To work with them consciously, therefore, is a potent form of magical attention.

 
In this workshop, we explore what happens when we use our imaginative capacities to travel through different emotional states—before, during, and after a reading. We experiment with using our feelings as a magnet to draw the card we need. We explore the different emotional roles the reader and the querent play.  Are our feelings the royal road to finding meaning in our cards? Let’s find out!
