In this one-hour experiential workshop, you will explore the essence of Tarot magic: the art and practice of using Tarot not just to understand the world, but to change it—intentionally, symbolically, and soulfully.
Drawing from key principles in Essence of Tarot (formerly Essence of Magic), we’ll explore how tarot can serve as both mirror and catalyst. You’ll learn to approach a card not only as a message, but as a magical ally—an energy, an archetype, a force of transformation.
Through brief but potent exercises, you’ll activate cards using voice, movement, visualization, and sensory awareness. Sight, sound, touch, and scent will guide you into direct contact with each image. Essential oils—carefully chosen for their elemental and symbolic resonance—will help unlock intuition, enhance focus, and make the work bloom on multiple levels.
We’ll work with my favorite definitions of magic such as “a ch?: 10:50 AM - 11:20 AMMorning TeaInfo: Enjoy catered treats. Have a ten-minute reading, $20.

 One of the greatest mysteries of the Tarot is the origin of its story. In this presentation, I invite you on a unique journey as I share how I mapped each of the 22 Major Arcana cards to sacred Indigenous sites and Dreaming stories along the Swan River—from its source in the Perth Hills to its mouth at the estuary in Fremantle.
We will explore:
· How aligning Tarot cards with specific locations and stories along the Swan River can deepen, shift, or affirm their traditional meanings.
· Why I chose to rename certain cards, including why the Empress card became The Holy Grail in the Swan River Tarot.
· How the journey along the river mirrors spiritual myths from other traditions, drawing parallels between Indigenous Dreaming and stories such as:
o The Garden of Eden
o The Ark of the Covenant
o The Last Supper?: 12:30 PM - 01:30 PMLunchInfo: A light lunch is provided. Visit David Mitchell's stall to purchase the Swan River Tarot deck. Have a ten-minute reading,$20. Meet with the Guest Speakers. Browse stalls.?: 01:35 PM - 02:10 PMThe Power of Colour.Host: Julia ChappleInfo:  I am delighted to share the creative journey that led to the birth of my Oracle deck. I will be exploring the inspiration, vision, and process that brought this project into 
being, beginning with the choice of its title: The Power of Colour. This title captures 
the essence of my belief that colour is not merely something we see, it is a living, 
transformative force. It shapes our emotions, influences our perceptions, and 
deepens our spiritual experiences in ways both subtle and profound. 
Each shade carries its own unique resonance, a vibration that speaks to us on levels 
beyond words. In creating this deck, my intention was to translate that energetic 
language into a tangible form something people could hold, work with, and use as a 
guide. The Power of Colour is designed to be more than just a collection of cards; it 
is a tool for connection, reflection, and empowerment, inviting individuals to explore 
how the presence of colour can illuminate their inner world.?: 02:15 PM - 02:45 PMIntroducing the release of a new Oracle deck " Plume"Host: Shirley BarroyInfo: Plume Oracle is a powerful 54-card deck designed to help you seek answers for yourself or others while unlocking your intuition.

Have a ten-minute reading,$20.?: 03:30 PM - 04:30 PMThe Zig Zag of EffulgenceHost: Russell SturgessInfo: One of the most overlooked symbols in the Marseille depiction of the Empress is a zigzag symbol found beside her left buttock. In his book, The Lost Language of Symbolism, Harold Bayley shows watermarks from the medieval period that depict a seated woman with a zigzag symbol beside her hip. He described this zigzag as a “five rayed zigzag, crest or cockscomb”. He also called it the zigzag of effulgence, that which shines brightly, often depicted on crowns symbolising “the Supreme”.         In her paper, “How to read a Renaissance Fool” Anu Korhonen wrote, “The word cockscomb could be used as a synonym for the word fool.”                                                                            Russell will be exploring the Empress’ role as the mother of the Fool, and how the symbols found in the Popess and the Emperor cards help to give clarity to the poignancy of what this card means to us in our pilgrimage as the Fool.?: 04:35 PM - 05:35 PMImmersed in a Tarotverse Host: Kat BlackInfo: "Immersed in a Tarotverse"
Kat will tell the story of how her decks came into being and will also show and tell some of her work from the past 20 years, creating virtual worlds and interactive installations with her partner Jasper as VJzoo.

What is she ?Host: Jean - Michel DavidInfo: No symbol has a single meaning, or it would cease being symbolic. Yet, ‘symbols, though having no fixity in meaning, do not lack precision’ – so what are this card’s unfixed yet precise meanings? Tomberg writes in Meditations on the Tarot:
‘The Major Arcana of the Tarot are authentic symbols. They conceal and reveal their sense at the same time, according to the depth of meditation. That which they reveal are not secrets, i.e. things hidden by human will, but are arcana, which is something quite different. An arcanum is that which it is necessary to "know" in order to be fruitful in a given domain of spiritual life. It is that which must be actively present in our consciousness — or even in our subconscious — in order to render us capable of making discoveries, engendering new ideas, conceiving of new artistic subjects. In a word, it makes us fertile in our creative pursuits, in whatever domain of spiritual life. ?: 10:45 AM - 11:15 AMMorning teaInfo: Enjoy delightful catered treats.

Tarot Symbolism - Looking outside the box.Host: Sue YarwoodInfo: Sue is going to bring the world of symbolism to life in an informative 
learning experience.  
Starting with The Empress Sue will get you to look outside the box 
with how we are traditionally taught and be able to bring this card 
and the rest of the deck to life in a new unique way.  
Sue will show you a more interactive experience within any tarot 
spread to give you a deeper connectedness to your readings and 
your clients.  
Learning to look differently will open a whole new world of Tarot 
symbolism for you to fully immerse in and empowering you to read 
on a deeper level. 
Ever wondered why we have different shoe colours, types of shoes 
and the direction they point?? 
Or why are they wearing a belt? 
Sue is going to fill the gap. 
Sue acknowledges the lack of courses available in symbolism and 
has created a new “1 Day Tarot Symbolism Course” called “Looking 
Outside The Box” that now runs separate to her 12 month Tarot 
Immersion Course. 
Website -  https://thespiritualalchemi?: 12:30 PM - 01:00 PMThe Decanic Mysteries.Host: Julia ChappleInfo: I am excited to introduce you to my newest creation: The Decanic Mysteries. This 
deck is rooted in the ancient astrological system of the 36 decans, the hidden faces 
of the zodiac. Each zodiac sign is divided into three sections of 10 degrees, and 
within each decan lies its own planetary ruler, symbolism, and unique energy. 
Together, they weave a deeper and more intricate story of the zodiac, revealing 
layers of meaning that go far beyond the surface.
With this deck, I will also be unveiling a new concept I have developed, designed to 
expand how we engage with the decans and their transformative power. Alongside 
this, I will guide you through the fascinating practice of sigil creation exploring how 
and why these potent symbols are formed, and how they can be used as tools of 
focus, intention, and manifestation.
To make this experience truly personal, I will also invite you to create your own sigil 
during the session.?: 01:00 PM - 01:45 PMLunchInfo: A light catered lunch is provided. Browse stalls. Enjoy a ten-minute reading - $20. Meet with the guest speakers.?: 01:50 PM - 02:45 PMMary K Greer. 21 Ways to Read a Tarot Card.Host: Mary K GreerInfo: What if a single Tarot card could speak directly to you—through image, gesture, symbol, and sensation? This immersive workshop invites you to experience just that, by asking “What do I most need to look at in my life right now.”
Through a series of partnered, hands-on exercises, you’ll explore many of the methods found in 21 Ways to Read a Tarot Card—approaches that awaken intuitive insight, expand interpretive range, and bring the cards vividly to life. Working with one card at a time, you’ll activate its imagery so that it begins to move, speak, and resonate—not as an abstract symbol, but as a living presence that reveals something essential about your life.
These methods go far beyond memorized meanings. You’ll practice describing what you see, embodying the card’s posture, sensing emotional tone, tracing elemental and numerical patterns, and entering into symbolic dialogue—all designed to uncover the card’s many layers and personal relevance.?: 02:50 PM - 03:20 PMAfternoon tea.Info: Enjoy a delightful catered treat. Enjoy a ten-minute reading - $20. Browse stalls. Meet with Guest Speakers.?: 03:25 PM - 04:25 PMCarolyn Johnson.  Tarot Spread . Using the Empress Card as your significator.Host: Carolyn Johnson?: 04:30 PM - 05:30 PMMarina Lovasz. How to Ground into the Body to awaken the Oracle. Host: Marina LovaszInfo: Your oracle isn’t floating above you, she’s rooted within you.
In this embodied tarot workshop, Marina Lovasz offers a somatic approach to The Empress archetype, exploring Demeter not just as nurturer, but as a frequency that lives in your body, in your breath, your belly, your instinct.
You’ll be guided through practices that support you to come home to your own rhythm, awaken intuitive clarity, and experience tarot as a living language between the psyche and the body. This isn’t about “reading” the cards, it’s about feeling them.
Letting the archetypes move through you.
Letting your body speak before your mind interprets.
Through gentle movement, guided inquiry, and archetypal activation, you’ll reconnect with the oracle within, steady, clear, and already wise.
This session invites you to reclaim the feminine seat of knowing, not by escaping your body, but by coming deeper into it.?: 05:30 PM - 06:00 PMClose.Host: Jo WatkinsInfo: Meet the guest speakers, visit the stalls, and have your books and decks autographed. Thank you for attending this year's conference. We look forward to seeing you again on the weekend of March 20th and 22nd, 2027.
