November 3rd, 2008
Description:
The Tarot which pre-dates Christianity, relies heavily upon ancient Greek mythology and related archetypes to access hidden keys held in the human subconscious which greatly influence our behavior." The Tarot is truly a rich tool to use as part of a reading practice for clients, for fun and entertainment, and/or to enhance your own personal process.
In this workshop, you will learn simple tools to use the Tarot to read yourself or others. We will look at a variety of formats for different types of readings, and discuss combining your use of psychic energy tools with the use of the Tarot. Tarot reading can be fun, easy and fascinating for both the reader and the e subject.
Although there are many wonderful decks, for purposes of this workshop you will need to purchase Sharman-Burke and Greene's The Mythic Tarot (which includes both the deck and its own full length interpretive guide). The Mythic Tarot is available at the Malibu Shaman, the Bodhi Tree, and through Amazon.com and Borders.

Spiritual Field Trip:
Exploring Spiritual "Vortexes" Around

The King Gillette Ranch, Calabasas, California
Prerequisite:
Beginning Meditation
Cost:
$125.00 (bring your own picnic lunch)
Confirmation / Prepayment Required by Friday
December 5th, 2008
Description:
We are lucky to live in a modern metropolitan area surrounded by the beauty of the mountains and the sea. The earth contains its own magic, but one must create an openness to understanding its methods of communicating with us.
Animals have this special communion with earth as part of their birthright. However, humans can also develop this awareness of the earth's power, particularly at certain "vortex" points where the earth's energy is magnified. Sedona, Arizona is one vortex area where energies for personal transformation are plentiful and dynamic.
Did you also know that we have vortex points here in Los Angeles? The Malibu Canyon area is one such vortex point, perhaps because it is where the mountains, canyons, and the sea meet. You can learn to work with the powerful earth energy in these spots to speed up your own personal transformation.
Come to the beautiful King Gillette Ranch, only open to the public since 2007, to experience the magic of one of our local vortex spots.
Includes hike, outdoor and indoor meditation, and picnic time. (Please bring your own picnic lunch and picnic supplies).
