LENORMAND CARTOMANCY: The Drawing Room Oracle with Joy Vernon.
Sunday, September 9, 2012. 2 - 3pm, FREE PRESENTATION.
Throughout the nineteenth century, if one were to wander into the ladies sitting-room after dinner, it would not be surprising to find the occupants playing a game of forfeits with a deck of illuminated cards, perhaps even going so far as to tell each other's fortunes based on the progression of the play. What was this entertaining game of oracles and how has it developed into the newest rage for divination and card-collecting? Discover the colorful history of the 36-card oracle deck called Le Petit Jeu de Mademoiselle Lenormand, the shocking story of the French sibyl it was named after, and why these simple cards are considered more accurate than tarot for predictive readings. Call 303-758-9113 to register.

 

LENORMAND CARTOMANCY: The Drawing Room Oracle with Joy Vernon.
Monday, October 1, 2012. 7 - 9pm, $20.

TarotLenormand The petit Lenormand oracle is a 36-card deck that developed in the nineteenth century as a game and a fortune-telling tool. Lenormand cards each contain a single, simple symbol, not the complex layered symbols of tarot. Many readers consider them to be less psychological and more straight-forward than tarot in the way they answer questions.

This class will start with a brief overview of the history of Mademoiselle Lenormand and the cards which were named after her, and then we'll learn some basic techniques for working with this

"Wow, how fun. The Lenormand system is a lot to learn and Joy made it seem very easy." - Sherry P.

 

Joy Vernon suddenly became enamored of the Lenormand oracle in April of this year, and proceeded to buy fourteen Lenormand decks before bothering to learn how to read them. Her diligence in research and her intuitive understanding of divination systems combined with her optimistic confidence in all new endeavors had her instructing others in the system within a few months. Joy has been teaching energetic and esoteric modalities for over twenty years. She is one of the Psychics of Isis and teaches Tarot, Astrology, Qabalah and Traditional Japanese Reiki.

ROGER BACON PROPHESIES & NOSTRADAMUS
by Bruce Johnson

Roger Bacon
Roger Bacon

 

Nearly 300 years before Nostradamus, a visionary genius named Roger Bacon was born in England. As a gifted seer, Roger Bacon made astounding prophecies scrying with an "enchanted mirror" called Almuchefi. In contrast to the obscure quatrains of Nostradamus with their multiple interpretations, Bacon's prophecies were much clearer, and at times foretold specific inventions.

 

Born in 1214, Roger Bacon, who some believe was the adept Count St. Germain, has an impressive list of credentials. A young Bacon studied theology, science, philosophy, and languages at Oxford University, and later mathematics and medicine in Paris. Almost the only astronomer of his time, he calculated the positions and sizes of the heavenly bodies and in 1267 rectified the inaccurate Julian calendar in regard to the solar year.


AtomBruce Johnson has over 30 years of study in the fields of Ancient Wisdom and occultism. He has taught classes on a wide range of topics, from Atlantis to mediums to Zoroaster. He is also a spiritualist minister, with a background in spiritual astrology. He lives in Colorado with his wife and their cat.

SEPTEMBER ASTROLOGICAL UPDATE by Marci McCaffery

Astrologer Marci McCaffery
There are many changes occurring at this time within people and without. The energies affecting the Earth increase in their intensity as the Earth prepares to alter its vibrational resonance. This sudden alteration of the earth's energy field is causing a great deal of physical challenges and imbalances within the body.  -  A message from Archangel Ariel

To better adapt to these changes, we are reminded to make ourselves our number-one priority, giving conscious care to our body, mind and spirit each day. We can adjust to these waves of intensity by deepening our meditation and breathwork practices. Body movement through yoga, tai chi, dance, exercise, and qigong are also helpful. Vibrational and emotional release therapies are also highly recommended. The objective is to find a regime that works best, to reduce stress levels and maintain heart-centered connection.
