april - IGNITING YOUR INNER FIRE SOFTLY

In our first month together, we connect and explore the Element Fire.

Fire leads us forward with passion. It can help us feel more energised and motivated, driving us into action. 

It is related to Wands in tarot and to the astro signs Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. 

During these two workshops, we will explore the Wands suit and call in the values-driven energy we need to expand the space for care in our lives. 

may - GROUNDING WITH EARTH

This month we connect and discover the Element Earth. 

Earth shows us how important it is to have foundations we can rely on for our self and community care. 

It corresponds to Pentacles in tarot, and the astro signs Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. 
 

During the Earth workshops, we will explore the Suit of Pentacles. We will also reflect on what we need from the environments that surround us (home, work, communities) to feel more supported and grounded.

June - daydreaming with air

In June, we connect and discover the Element Air.

Air has an expansive, curious, and adventurous energy. 

Helping us connect our values and ethics with our actions, Air is the kind of friend who always has a creative solution to challenges.

Air corresponds to Swords in tarot and to the astro signs Libra, Gemini and Aquarius.

During these workshops, we will learn about the Suit of Swords, and explore daydreaming as a portal to joy.

july - transforming with water

This month we connect and discover the Element Water. 

Water has a strong transformative power. Leading us with our emotions and feelings, Water calls us to trust our intuition and lead with love and compassion.

Water is represented by Cups in tarot and the astro signs Cancer, Pisces, and Scorpio.

During the Water workshops, we will explore the Suit of Cups and how Water can support us in navigating change and emotions with confidence.

AUGUST - connecting with spirit

In the final month of the course, we connect and discover what it means to connect with Spirit/Aether.

We’ll discuss how to interact, recognise and integrate energetic insights into our intuitive reading and everyday magic practice.

what people are saying

I loved the overall approach of looking at each suit of the minor arcana in isolation. There’s a lot of content/courses about the major and much less delving into the minor so I found this really useful! Also the accessible price, great setting, your excellent facilitation style.

AJ takes time and space to consider everyone and is profoundly passionate about self-care, evident in the warm communication, diversity of things to try, and magical presence in the group sessions. It's all truly unique. Thank you for everything.

Spending two months working with AJ on their beautiful In Your Element programme has felt like such a gift. Through supportive group sessions, in-depth one-to-one sessions, generously curated worksheets and tailored homework, AJ created the opportunity for real growth, insight and change in just over 2 months. AJ combines a pragmatic, wise and thoughtful approach with a touch of magic that makes for a really special environment. I looked forward to our meetings - each time it was a touch of calm and quiet in an otherwise busy and sometimes overwhelming week.

I’ve especially appreciated that AJ has taught me how to tap into my intuition, to hear and understand what I need, and has reassured me that wanting more life and less work is a valid and important goal to work toward. I can’t recommend working with AJ enough if you’re looking to take the next step to making your life a bit more intentional, a bit more in tune with what you actually truly want, and a bit more magical.

These workshops are a calming, truly safe, knowledgeable and fun space that always get me thinking about good, helpful stuff. The joy to be present, and the sharing that radiates from Ambra and through everyone is cute af and I love it. I like the intros very much, where I find focusing easier than I usually do, through little guided moments of grounding. I've found understanding and using Tarot has become more familiar through talking together. The frequency of the workshops is just right because there's space to allow life to flow but then we can get together and find out what's next! I couldn't do this alone. What a lovely thing you have developed and given us AJ.

I loved the structure of a suit & element, the narrative approach to the story of each suit, and the communal experience of looking at and discussing what we got from each card.

AJ created such a safe communal space for discussing self-care and healing, and the challenges and obstacles we face. Using tarot to help recognise those needs, scenarios, and struggles felt both structured and freeing, pointing to solutions we can find due ourselves and lessons we can learn from the challenges. With each session, I found new perspectives and ways of looking at day-to-day situations and making new connections between them, and getting to have the discussions with the others in the group with AJ leading was deeply insightful and richly connecting.

It's the first time I've been enabled to explore what matters in a group setting, and that truly means so much. It came at a perfect time to embrace transformations. I've begun to release some stuff that was weighing me down, to reduce unhelpful fiery feelings and turn them into good ones. The idea of dancing and singing to use my fiery energy resonated with me and I particularly loved the Fire activities; candle-gazing and cooking. As we were cooking I felt myself settling in with purpose. I feel emotional writing this!

 FAQs

  • All the tarot classes will be recorded so you can go back to them whenever you like 😊

    The rituals and integration sessions are not recorded to allow for a cosy and more intimate space to share with each other. If you can't make it to these sessions I'll send guidance to try the activities in your own time.

  • As the person creating and facilitating this programme, it feels important to share that my experience is shaped by being a white queer, non-binary, neurodivergent peep dealing with different chronic pains and mental health struggles. I grew up in a small countryside town in Italy, in a middle-class context.

    I care about creating spaces that are inclusive and accessible, and I believe that I have to continuously keep questioning and learning what that means in practice, especially in the spaces I hold.

    Please check more about the values leading my practices at the end of my about page.

If this speaks to you, I hope you’ll join us!
