This series of introductory workshops covers all aspects of making and reading SoulCollage(R) cards. It gives you an opportunity to start and build your own deck.

SoulCollage(R) is an intuitive process created by Seena Frost. Using simple materials–magazine images, glue and matte board–you create a deck of collaged cards that is all about you and your life. You use the cards as a tool to get in touch with your vast inner wisdom.

We will start each session with a brief overview, and then concentrate on one of the four SoulCollage(R) suits. We will create cards and learn a simple reading technique. This series is suitable for beginners, and for those who have wanted a curated space to dive deeper into one of the suits.

“The soul speaks through images.”–Carl Jung

Jan 20 — We start with the Committee suit. These cards are the aspects of yourself, the roles you play, your personas, emotions and inner voices. Some are hard, some are easy. Who sits at the big conference table in your mind?

Feb 17 — Community Suit. This is a suit in which you deliberately make cards to honor the people who are most important to you. Is there someone you’d like to honor? A beloved friend, partner, ancestor, relative, pet? An inspirational historic figure? All fall into this suit. Bring color copies of photos of them to include in your cards, if you have them.

Mar 17 — Companion Suit. The most shamanic! Journey into your chakras to find an animal companion or two to help you express your energy. They may be familiar or totally new to you.

April 14 (time TBA)– Council Suit. The most mysterious of the suits hold the forces that work through you. When you feel an archetypal energy choosing you, here’s where it goes. We’ll also briefly discuss the Transpersonal Cards, which help to hold the energy of your entire deck.

I will provide a pack of handouts and basic materials (cards and protective sleeves)to get you started, as well as pre-cut images, magazines, glue and basic scissors. I also will have additional cards and sleeves on hand for purchase.

$20-30 for each session, or $70-100 for the series.

Bring your curiosity, a pen and journal (very important!), and also any additional things you might need….fine scissors or an Xacto knife and mat for cutting. Water in a closed container. Eyewear for detail work, if you need it. You can bring images you’ve collected, greeting cards, copies of photographs. And if you have magazines and books to share, bring them to add to our library of images.

Ages 16 or older. Please be ready to start at 1:00, as we have a lot of ground to cover and cards to make!

Seating is limited to 8 artists. If you RSVP and cannot come, please change your RSVP as soon as possible as a courtesy to the facilitator.

Valerie is a Web of Life Minister, and trained SoulCollage(R) facilitator, as well as a lifelong artist, a Life and Intentional Creativity(TM) Coach and Color of Woman(TM) teacher.
