Tarot: The Royal Road to Enlightenment | Live Workshop with Catherine Shainberg | 13-15 June 2025 | 9:00AM – 5:30PM CET | Adria Ankara Hotel & Resort, in Ankaran, Slovenia
For two weeks this June, SOI founder Catherine Shainberg returns to Europe for two incredible live workshops and the first-ever SOI Dream Hub, a special “idea session”-style gathering to reinvigorate and propel the School forward. The second of two planned SOI Slovenia workshops will focus on the Tarot as the Royal Road to Enlightenment, an exploration of the Tarot as a tool for inner gazing and expansive change. In this workshop, we’ll uncover the profound teachings and path to inner transformations that the cards illustrate.
The Tarot or Tarocchi first appeared as a game of cards in the mid-15th century in Europe. Their true origin is lost in the midst of time. Christian, Sufi, Jewish? What is so unique about another pack of cards?
For those of you attending Source of Revelation 3, you will be amazed and delighted at the many correspondences and interconnections! Tarot, like the Bahir, is a book that describes the path to enlightenment, except that its teachings come in images instead of words. Like a dream each image opens up many layers of interpretation. The pages are reordered with every throw.
These throws do not come from any outside source; they come from our inner questioning and guide the subconscious choice of cards we pick up. This is a form of inner gazing externalized with the use of the Tarot through which the truth of the matter that resides in each of us can always be revealed. We will be studying the structure of the Tarot, its 22 major Arcana that are the portals to enlightenment, its royal family (King, Queen, son, daughter) its court represented by organic and powerful numbers.
We will learn to open the throws as dreams and trust to their truth and relevance to our lives. This helps us access our subconscious and the truth and guidance that resides there. As each card offers a story, each throw is like a dream; a question is asked and a response is given that you can open up, each time. This is an especially valuable resource for those who may find accessing their inner world of images challenging.
Join Dr. Catherine Shainberg, Master of Saphire® Imagery, in association with SOI Slovenia, and dive into the multi-dimensional meanings and hidden richness of Tarot imagery as a quick and accessible portal to your own images, dreams, and inner revelations. Ultimately, you will learn to better understand yourself and your path to manifestation.
