Ah, PantheaCon! So many choices each session, and I can be at only one workshop!<\/p>\n
Friday night I arrived too late to do anything more than check in, eat dinner, and pass out. Saturday morning, I faced my first round of choices – never easy!<\/p>\n
I started the day with Mary Greer’<\/a>s workshop on “Life As A Dream”. Mary did a short presentation on her theory and her experience teaching this workshop in other settings. The idea is to relate a life event as if one is retelling a dream, and interpret the event as one would interpret a dream. After Mary explained the theory, we paired off and took turns going through the process. My partner was great to work with, and we learned a lot about each other and ourselves.<\/p>\n The next session was a fun workshop with Lon Milo DuQuette<\/a> presenting “Ask Baba-LON”. Lon shared excerpts from his upcoming book, and took some great questions from the audience. Lon also treated us to a few songs, which are available on his CD from his website<\/a>.<\/p>\n After a break for lunch, I attended David Skibbins<\/a>‘ presentation, bearing the intriguing title of “Saving the World, One Murder at a Time.” David is the author of the Warren Ritter mystery series, which is the only murder mystery series to feature a Tarot reader as the mystery solver. David spoke on finding ways to share your passion in the world and transforming it into your livelihood, which was inspiring and motivating.<\/p>\n Then it was time for nap – the late night on Friday (arriving after a long day at the day job) caught up with me, and despite the interesting workshops on offer, a nap was essential to ensure I would be able to attend the evening sessions.<\/p>\n I woke up in time to meet Rosered<\/a>, Andrew<\/a>, Artemis<\/a>, and his wife for dinner.\u00a0 They presented me with a wonderful gift – a pale blue polo shirt with the Tarot-To-Go<\/a> logo embroidered on it!\u00a0 They found a place to do the custom embroidery, and had it done as a surprise for me.\u00a0 I was quite touched – such a nice gesture!\u00a0 We ate and talked about Tarot and the workshops we’d been to that day – with so much variety, we’d all managed to attend entirely different sessions!<\/p>\n After dinner, I thought I’d catch another quick nap to rest up before the evening sessions.\u00a0 The quick nap turned into 12 hours of sleep!\u00a0 Turns out I was (unsuccessfully) fighting off a cold. I missed all kinds of wonderful things, but getting 12 hours of sleep made it possible for me to make it to some workshops on Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ah, PantheaCon!
