This past summer I was honored to be a guest speaker for Nightlight Astrology’s speaker series. There I spoke about the decans, one of my favorite subjects in astrology & how it weaves tarot & Astrology together. It followed a decan project that I had created here on SubStack as well as on YouTube. In that project, I followed the decans through the zodiac via astrologer interviews about the three decans of each sign. I had the pleasure of connecting with so many wonderful voices, including Gary P Caton on Aries, Sonia - Celestia Astrology for Taurus & alchemilie for Gemini (check out the rest of the decan alumni on my YouTube)This project has now grown into a mini workshop to be held later this winter:This is a workshop, held over 3 sequential Mondays at 6 PM ET: 29 December 2025, 5 January & 12 January 2026 Each session will be 90 minutes including time for Q&A. The workshop will be recorded so that all attendees will have access to the recordings, even if you don't attend them live. A supplemental workbook will be sent in three parts prior to each meeting designed to walk you through each lesson. You keep the recordings and workbook for as long as you want. This is a basic foundational course on the decans, looking at the mystical layer of the universe through astrology & tarot. This is also a space for storytelling, ritual & journal invitations and a time to devote to deeper, magical community. You will: * Hear about the history of the decans from the ancient past. * Learn how to notice the decanic symbols in every day life. * Discover the elemental threads that tie the Tarot to Astrology You could also find that: * It prepares & inspires you to do a decan walk or a decan dance. * You're prompted to find your own stories in the decans in your natal chart. * You connect with other tarot/astrology curious folks & make new friends. You will be sent a registration link after purchase.
