The Emporium
The Elements and Tarot: Understanding the Elemental Harmony of the Minor Arcana
After working with Tarot and Sekhem for over a decade Dominic designed a new tarot deck; Written in the Stars, inspired by the cosmic and mythological influences woven throughout Egyptian Magic and the origin of this divination vocation. Dominic is a qualified Sekhem Master and Tarot Practitioner and Teacher with qualifications in Classical History and ran a Holistic Retreat Centre for the past ten years, specialising in crystals and wellbeing. After a deep meditation in the Kings Chamber of the Great Pyramid it was clear that the ancient Egyptians held the key to Dominic's path, a path that eventually led him to curating The Emporium, a new business dedicated to divination.
The elements are all around us, always, and they appear throughout human history in varying forms, typically manifested within pantheons or great spirits that were worshipped or revered. If we look at the history of Tarot, some roots dating back to the Egyptian Empire thousands of years ago, it is clear to see the influence of the elements throughout. Join me as we dive into the Minor Arcana and explore the relationship between these cards and the four cardinal elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water. Through this different viewpoint you will meet with the Minor Arcana in a way that may help you read Tarot moving forward. As Tarot is a modality of healing we will also embrace a short guided meditation where you will meet the elements and the cards, this will aid the harmony between your soul's eye and your body as we dance with the deck in spirit and reality. This will be an interactive and hand's on experience where you can explore tarot for yourself, please bring your deck that you are working with and copies of the Written in the Stars Tarot will be available as well. No prior experience is needed for this and all are welcome. You may wish to bring a journal for any notes but mostly, bring your minds and hearts and get ready to explore one of the oldest forms of divination in human history.
