Crossroads 2025
Jan
12
1:00 PM13:00

Crossroads 2025

Knowing yourself is one path. Knowing the collective is another. We'll meet them both at the crossroads.

In this intimate 3-hour workshop, we'll explore the profound wisdom held within numerology and tarot archetypes that guide both our collective journey and our individual paths through 2025. Together, we'll decode the completion energy of Number 9, embrace the contemplative wisdom of The Hermit, and discover how your personal numerology and soul gifts align with these powerful energies.

The Sacred Numbers & Archetypes of 2025

This year carries the vibration of Number 9 – the number of completion, wisdom, and spiritual understanding. Paired with The Hermit archetype in the tarot, 2025 invites us into a space of meaningful introspection and conscious completion of important life cycles. These energies create the perfect container for understanding both our collective journey and your unique soul path.

Is This Workshop For You?

  • Are you curious about how your personal numerology and soul code interact with the collective energies of 2025?

  • Do you sense you're completing an important cycle but need clarity on what's ending and what's beginning?

  • Would you like to understand your inherent gifts and how to express them more fully this year?

  • Are you drawn to explore the deeper meaning behind numbers and archetypes in your life?

Integration & Practical Application (Hour 3)

- Create your personal energetic map for 2025

- Learn rituals and practices aligned with your unique numbers

- Discover how to work with both challenging and supportive energies

- Set intentions that honor both personal and collective cycles

What Makes This Workshop Special

This isn't just about learning numerology or tarot – it's about discovering how these ancient wisdom systems reveal the unique patterns of your soul's journey. Through a blend of teaching, meditation, and practical application, you'll gain both understanding and tools to navigate 2025 with greater awareness and purpose.

What's Included:
