Two Online Group Chats in December 2014



Sunday, Dec 7
3 pm to 4 pm EST
and
Wednesday, Dec 17
6 pm to 7 pm EST
Royersford Tarot Study Group




First ever online group chat
Due to the holidays, we will be taking a break in December for our study group meetings. We will continue with the monthly meetings at the Royersford Library starting in January. The next study group meeting will be on Wednesday, January 21, 2015.

As an alternative, we will have two online group chats on Google Hangouts to discuss 2 or 3 sample readings. We will use these sample readings to help practice our own reading skills.

The online chats will be from 3 pm to 4 pm EST for December 7 and from 6 pm to 7 pm for December 17. There is no cost to participate in the online discussions, however you will need to have internet access and be able to use Google Hangouts.

If you are on the Royersford Tarot Study Group mailing list, you will receive two separate invitations via email for the Google Hangout chats, please respond to each event that you would like to participate in. If you did not receive an email invitation and would like to join us, please send me an email to let me know.

I will send out the information on the cards for the sample readings a couple of days before the chats.

About the Royersford Tarot Study Group
The Royersford Tarot Study Group meets every month to discuss topics in and about the Tarot, to practice readings, explore new ideas and techniques, and to share with fellow Tarot enthusiasts something we're all passionate about.

The group welcomes all levels of experience - from curious watchers to professional readers, of all sorts of backgrounds and interests. Whether you come along to gain new Tarot knowledge, further your skills, or just to make new Tarot friends, the study group is a forum to expand and cultivate your relationship with the Tarot.

We meet on Wednesday evenings from 5:45 pm- 7:45 pm with each meeting starting with a discussion of the topic (handouts provided when practical) then an opportunity to practice the ever developing reading skills.


The meetings will aim to provide:
  •  One hour discussion of a topic of particular Tarot interest;
  • Time following the meetup to practice your reading skills and explore new ideas with others in a safe and friendly group atmosphere
  • An environment where sharing, discussion, learning support, and mutual respect are the focus.
  • A $5 donation  will be collected at each meeting, which is to help cover the associated costs of study materials. It is a suggested amount however so feel free to give according to what you can afford. The money left over at the end of the year will be donated to a local charity chosen by the group.

We will cover the following:
  • Pre-spread work
