From the Fool to the World: A Writing Journey through the Major Arcana

Join us on the fourth Thursday of the month as we use the 22 archetypes of the Major Arcana as prompts for our creative expression! 
 
The Major Arcana traces the path of the Fool's journey as they encounter different aspects of Self along the way. Using a variety of visuals from different decks and bespoke writing prompts, we'll craft a container to encourage each other's creative work (sharing always optional!) and hold the journey together.
 
This will be a hybrid in-person/Zoom program:
