Ticketed Event (Price includes drink ticket!)
What’s better than tarot? Tarot AND queer community—and this event has both! Hosted by Understory and Andrew McGregor of The Hermit’s Lamp, this event is a chance to explore the tarot, meet other people who love to read cards, and grow your skill in a supportive and safe space.
Whether you’re just starting your first deck or have years of experience, this evening is for ALL levels. Just bring yourself and your cards, and be ready to have fun.
What is it going to look like in practice?
Andrew (any pronouns) will be your host for the evening. He has been working with Tarot since 1986 and has been a full time reader since 2000. He has written three books and published five decks. Traveling all around the world to teach, he has also run his Toronto store, The Hermit’s Lamp, since 2008. With years of experience, he has a deep love of teaching and sharing tarot with others.
As a group, participants will discuss what they hope to learn from the evening based on their goals. Andrew will help guide readings, build tarot spreads, and teach new techniques. They’ll be around to drop in and answer questions, share stories, and support your tarot journey.
This is a community event. We ask that you please show up with an open heart, a willingness to share (whatever your level), and a deep respect for other people’s journeys.
This space is accessible. Limited sponsored spots available drop Andrew a line at andrew @ thehermtslamp.com
The plan is for this to be a monthly event.
What if I am a total beginner?
We all started in a similar place: With a fresh deck and a book to help us interpret our readings. The wonderful thing about the tarot community is they love to share. After all, the more readers, the more fun. So be assured you will be welcome!
What should I bring?
Bring your cards, a notebook, and whatever you might like to share.
