Fri May 29 * Tea & Tarot Spirt Guides: Meet Your Power Animal
Class time: 7-8:30 pm * $22 +++

Think about the ways animals appear in your life. Countless stories exist about the way people and animals work together - of course we all recognize animals as our pets, for some of us as our food, perhaps even as transportation. But the wild allies can also serve a deeper role in our lives, as inspiration, as wonder-bringers, and even as Spiritual Guides. 

Many different traditions hold that there is a deep connection between humans and animals and that the Animals can come forward for us with great wisdom. Nearly every culture has some example of an Animal serving as a God or Goddess, or as their Messenger; as a Wise Teacher who helped Humanity in some way. Many cultures believe that these Wild Guides walk by our sides to this day, providing us with strength, support, and lending their fierce and wild abilities to us when we are in need.

But how do we discover these Wild Guides, and how do we connect to them? Misha has worked with Animal Spirits since she was very little, when she first learned to whisper the language of flowers and foxes. In this class she will teach you the history of Animal Guides, helping you better understand that you have a deep connection to the wild world. Then she will take you on a guided journey to meet your very own Power Animal, and you will discover how to work with them utilizing tarot and oracle cards. Misha will share her personal tips and tricks, secrets she has cultivated over the years of channeling Animal Guides for hundreds of clients all over the world. In this class you will discover connection and community with your Power Animal, as well as your own Wild Soul.

Price includes live or virtual class, handouts & recording of class.

Fri June 26 * Tea & Tarot: Cord Cutting for Tarot Readers
Class time: 7-8:30 pm * $22 +++

Have you ever felt like you just cannot get rid of something or someone in your life? Perhaps a person, place or thing just keeps turning up for you, and you really want to remove it from your life? Or perhaps you have had really heavy energy with someone, trauma, or an argument, and you need to clear the air? 

You might have connected to - or corded in - to someone (or a place, job, idea, group, etc) and not even realized it. And that cord can be quite the drain. You might be seeping energy, emotions, and strength and not even realize it...especially if you have spread your Self thin or given your Self to too many people, causes, ideas, or things. This can leave you feeling drained, heavy, stressed, anxious, or depressed...or like you cannot "live without" whatever it is. That feeling of dependency, attachment, urgency? Or the grief that can't seem to be assuaged? Oftentimes these are signs that you are due (perhaps even overdue) for a cord cutting.

Usui Reiki Training & Classes

Cypress Pillar's Usui Reiki is a truly lovely form of energy healing that was first founded in Japan in the late 1800's/early 1900's. The beautiful thing about this healing system is that *anyone* can do it, and Level 1 is the first step for those who wish to awaken and grow their energy healing abilities. And if you’ve already had Level 1 elsewhere, we welcome you back for a refresh or a deeper dive into this beautiful healing modality. Available in person at Cypress or virtually online.

Reiki Master Teacher Reverend Misha leads the course, offering a beautiful two day experience that includes multiple attunements (in the old Japanese method), lots of hands on practice, intuitive development, and much more.

Reiki Level 1: Saturday & Sunday July 25 & 26 (must attend both days)
Class time: 10 am - 4:00 pm * $260 +++
