Wordsmithing Magic from the Crossroads

I am thrilled for YOU to be the first to know:

Sacred Space 2027

I have been invited to be a presenter at the 2027 Sacred Space Conference:

From Rote to Relationship:
Guardians, Guides, and Allies in Tarot Practice
with Beth Owl’s Daughter

Most approaches to understanding the Tarot begin with memorizing seventy-eight card meanings, plus then the countless ways those meanings shift and evolve as cards interact with one another.

Rather than teaching additional card meanings, my workshop explores a different way of learning and interacting with the Tarot.

Together we’ll explore a relational approach, meeting the cards as magical guardians, guides, and allies rather than as information to be memorized.

Using your Birth Cards as an entry point, and then moving beyond, we’ll honor traditional meanings but explore the deeper insights emerging from a lived relationship with these companions.

Many experienced readers will recognize this as reflecting how the Tarot actually does unfold in practice, but now there is a language for understanding and deepening that experience.

The specifics for the time and date of my workshop will be announced soon.

But I just couldn’t wait to let you know. And to encourage you to save that weekend and come if you can!

bou·tique (bo͞oˈtēk), noun
1. A small store selling fashionable clothes or accessories.
2. A business that serves a sophisticated or specialized clientele.
3. Unique, exclusive workshops for the discerning Tarot connoisseur.

That’s you!

These are intimate, tailor-made workshops for people who want MORE in-depth exploration into magical subjects, SOMETIMES (but not always) including the Tarot.

I offer these classes as choice, specialty morsels that stand alone, or that can combine to add new sparkle and depth, helping your practice move beyond beginner.

🌟 Stay tuned… More Boutique Courses will be announced soon! 🌟

Before you enroll in my online workshops, you might want to know:

  • IMPORTANT: Because my workshops are never just a straight lecture, and because I take everyone’s conversations and confidentiality very seriously, there is no recording. I realize this is not the usual you might be used to, so thanks for understanding.
  • Seating is limited – only 30 spots are available.
  • If the class fills up, there will be a waiting list. You will be invited to fill any possible vacancies in the order you registered, so you might save the date, even if you don’t get in right away.
  • Life happens, and things do come up. I understand. So if you cancel your registration up to 7 days before the programs begin, I will refund your registration.

Tarot & Friends Circle

I am the founder and organizer for one of the oldest, largest, most successful Tarot social groups in the world. For over two decades, we’ve been meeting every month for practice, learning, and friendship.Ciro Marchetti's art of the four suits for our Tarot Group

For most of that time, we met in person, here in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Triangle area, with the help of Meetup.com.

But nowadays, we’ve are mostly meeting  via Zoom. We are so grateful for our greatly expanded membership and the opportunity to welcome people from all locations, not to mention our Tarot celebrity guest presenters.

All levels of Tarot enthusiasts are cherished — from beginners to collectors to professionals. Ours is a very fun, eclectic group and newcomers are always celebrated. In addition, Tarot Circle & Friends is an online location for the global Tarot community to meet and share our love of the Tarot together.

Speaking Engagements

Over the years, I have given countless presentations to groups both large and small, both public and private, and for all ages, from high school and university classrooms to retirement homes. My topics have included the Tarot, of course, but I also love inspiring people to expand their understanding of intuitive, spiritual, and magical practices.

I would be delighted to talk to your group, or teach for your facility or program. Just ask!Personal Photo of Beth giving a lecture for the Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship audience
