Divination Journaling with Jill Althouse-Wood

Divination is a means of communication with the divine forces of creation. Journal writing becomes a powerful implement in the toolbox of this communication. Through the twin processes of divination and journaling, the seeker comes to recognize patterns in the past, recognize the present moment, and shift paradigms that shape the future. Find ways in which your journaling practice can release fear and foster your intuition. This class is appropriate for all levels of writers and seekers. A fun introduction to concepts or a more in-depth exploration: Your journey will be a personal one. Bring a journal. Additional supplies will be provided.

Jill Althouse-Wood will facilitate this 2 hour workshop at Radiance, 9 W Grant St in downtown Lancaster, across the cobblestones from Central Market. Call 717-290-1517 to register.
