SUMMARY:Let’s Tarot with Joaquin Lopez
DESCRIPTION:“Let’s Tarot” is a two-part\, in-person workshop for artists\, healers\, and creatively inclined folks who feel drawn to learn the art of tarot as a language of image\, symbol and creative process.  \nDetails: \n\nDates: Thursdays\, October 8 and 15\, 2026\nTime: 6 pm – 9 pm\nLocation: Portland Queer Healers Collective\, 2512 SE 25th Ave\, Suite 206\, Portland\, OR 97202 (ADA Accessible) \nTransportation and parking: Street parking and TriMet FX-2-Division line.\nMaterials: Bring a journal\, pen or pencil and your tarot cards (any deck is fine). We’ll use the standard Rider-Waite deck for instruction. \nCost: Sliding scale fee of $40 – $195 (No one turned away for lack of funds. Please contact us at workshops@newrooms.org if the fee is a barrier.)\nRegister by signing up here!\n\n  \nWhat to expect?\nThis course is process-oriented and conversational rather than purely instructional. Joaquin will introduce ideas\, and participants will explore them together as a group. The intention is that each person leaves with: \n\nPractical ways to use the cards in personal life and creative practice.\nA felt understanding of how tarot can help us support others. \nA living sense of what tarot is and is not. (It is not fortune-telling!)\n\nThe class will approach the cards as living images—doorways into feeling\, imagination\, and story. You’ll learn about: \n\nThe basic architecture of the deck.\nThe meaning of numbers.\nThe elemental quality of the suits.\nThe archetypal flow of the Major Arcana.\nThe Celtic Cross and the Trinity tarot spreads. \n\nDrawing on more than 25 years of tarot reading\, Joaquin will share the system and philosophy he uses in his own practice\, and participants will spend time delving into the imagery itself—learning to read visually and intuitively rather than relying only on memorized meanings.  \nParticipants will: \n\nDevelop a personal relationship with tarot imagery.\nExplore archetypes\, symbols\, and visual storytelling.\nPractice intuitive and interpretive reading techniques.\nUse tarot as a tool for creative process and artistic inquiry.\n\nNo prior experience with tarot is required! Come with curiosity and leave with new ways of seeing—both your art and yourself. \nFor participations who complete registration: You’ll hear from Joaquin about 1 week before the class begins with reading materials\, reminders and more. In the meantime if any questions arise\, please reach out to info@newrooms.org \n  \n“This class helped me understand a tool that I always wanted to learn but found complicated; taking it made it make sense and practice new ways to perceive the world\, myself\, and others.” \n—Carolina Castañeda del Rio\, Founder and President of Evolve International \n  \n \n \n
