Tonight 🕯️🕯️🕯️Black Women Healing Retreats will be hosting an Intro To Tarot Workshop.Tarot is a divination tool that supports self-reflection, inspires new ways of thinking & reveals what is dormant or hidden within the subconscious mind. Through this ancient medicine, women are able to receive guidance, connect with their ancestors, and give voice to their inner thoughts. During this Introduction To Tarot Virtual Workshop, you may recover an unrealized layer of knowledge, or nourish your existing perceptions as you sharpen your intuition & practice interpreting symbols & engaging with the processes that allow you to make unseen meaning.
Please bring these items to the workshop if they are available to you:
▫️sit someplace cozy
▫️candles or incense
▫️journal/notepad + pen 🖊️
▫️water or warm beverage such as herbal tea
Please Note: To keep the sacredness of women communing and healing together, you will only be allowed to enter the room with your camera on.
Guided by Ghanay 🌹🌹🌹
For nearly a decade, Ghanay has been living & reading Tarot. She was inspired during her travels to learn the cards as a reflective tool & artform, as it invokes intuition & perception. Her readings are hopeful & place power in the hands of the querents. Her belief is that we can have a deep conversation with life & learn to see beyond the veil of circumstances that keep us disengaged from our personal seats of power. She is guided by the goddess & her ancestors, who support her in leading from the heart with humility & trust.
Intro To Tarot Virtual Workshop begins tonight at 7 pm EST 💻

No matter what the energy is like in the world, there are always self-love practices to return you back to the best version of yourself.

💅🏾💅🏾💅🏾 As we gently continue to ease into a new year, here are some things we’re not about to do. 🎯It’s important to set boundaries and standards as you continue to evolve.
Sis, tell us in the comments what you’re not doing this year 👇🏾💖
Black Women Healing Retreats invites you to pause, reset, and rejuvenate. We provide a setting for women to do real internal work so that they can continue to manifest beautiful things in their lives.
With a team of expert healers, coaches, therapists, medicine women, and facilitators, we provide a unique atmosphere for Black women to uproot and work through generational curses, unpack trauma, discuss today’s political climate and a safe space to say the things you are afraid to say out loud.
We connect you back to nature and fun in a luxurious environment. This experience redirects you and provides tools to truly center your healing and self-love.
