Members signed up to personify specific cards from the major arcana, while other members took turns asking questions to obtain their advice, given in character.
We encouraged members to dress in line with their major arcana characters, or to bring a prop showing what card they had selected. We didn't expect members to go all out and show up in full costume!

The meeting was, overall, fun and successful - even if we did seriously confuse our wait staff.
Meanwhile, April's meeting featured a discussion and exercises on the concept of 1,254 cards in the deck - essentially, how two cards paired together (1,254 possible combinations) can lend themselves to a meaning greater than the sum of their parts.
May's meeting, taking place TOMORROW, May 7, will feature a group discussion of the actual mechanisms that make tarot work, enlivened through a fun game of group jeopardy.
