The Tarot deck comes to life at Arts Center
What: 3rd annual Living Tarot Oracle
Where: Durango Arts Center
When: Sat., Nov. 10, 5-8 p.m. & Sun., Nov. 11, 3-6 p.m.
Where: Durango Arts Center
When: Sat., Nov. 10, 5-8 p.m. & Sun., Nov. 11, 3-6 p.m.
The Tarot deck comes to life with the 3rd annual Living Tarot Oracle from 5-8 p.m. Sat., Nov. 10, and 3-6 p.m. Sun., Nov. 11 at the Durango Arts Center, 802 E. 2nd Ave.
The Tarot began as a precursor to modern day playing cards. It came to life in the mid-15th century, and continues to do so with this unique, interactive event. The 22 major arcane, like the Fool, the Magician, the High Priestess and the Hanged Man, are all represented. Each card has an individual station and a representative “Living Oracle” in full costume.
Participants consult with card readers that can help them frame a question and then pull one to three cards from the deck. Those cards will direct them to the “Living Oracles” that best reflect the cards they chose. Then they’ll get a chance to talk with someone who is very familiar with the Tarot about the meaning of the cards. The readings are limited to three cards, but participants can ask another question with another reading.
A free “Tarot Teach-In” with Carrie Paris is another opportunity to learn about the Tarot and how personal cards can influence someone’s life and help them find harmony. This event takes place Fri., Nov. 9, from 6-8 p.m. at the Arts Center.
