From Tarot of the Divine to The Pasta Tarot deck, it’s clear that we’re turning to the cards these days. But there can be a big gap between buying your first deck or pulling your first cards, and building a relationship and understanding of this ancient practice. Let’s chat about tarot, its major themes and suites, and ways to work with tarot cards as a mindfulness practice. We’ll have decks for you to work with, but bring your own if you have them! 

What’s up with the cosmos and what’s that have to do with us? In this exploration hour we’ll dig into our own charts, especially our sun, moon, and rising signs, and what it can help us learn about ourselves ~ and each other. We’ll also chat about July's cosmic transits and how that’s shaping our current experiences. Whether you know your chart deeply or you’re just curious about astrology, come by to chat about it! 

Note: You can find a free version of your astrology chart online if you have your birth date, time, and location.

Playreaders do exactly what the name says, it's an interactive program where participants read aloud from plays, changing parts frequently so everyone gets a chance to bring theater to life.

Plays are usually selected by the participants.  Scripts are provided by the library.

May's Play will be "Dear Brutus" by J. M. Barrie.  The Guardian called this play "the Peter Pan for grown-ups" and reviewers found it "smart, funny, beautifully written and a little bit devastating".

Intrigued?  Why not come to read, or come to listen.
