Introduction to Palmistry
with Bruce Hoskins
Palmistry (or palm reading) is the practice of interpreting a person’s character and predicting their future by examining the lines and other features of the hand. Palm reading is not limited to the palm as it includes aspects of both of your entire hands. In this interactive workshop, we’ll cover the four types of hands (and which one you are), the significance of the primary lines and minor lines on the hand, and the various geometrical shapes that the various lines can form on the hand. This workshop will also include discussions on the various mounts of the hand and their meanings.

Introduction to Tarot Interpretation

For anyone interested in learning to use Tarot cards, the hardest part initially is interpreting them. Tarot meanings are not set in stone. They are meant to make you think and guide you in the right direction.
In this interactive workshop, you will learn how to start your own unique interpretation methods. We’ll cover the basics of tarot and how it is connected to numerology, astrology, and the Pagan elements. You will also learn about the differences in the various tarot decks and how you can find the deck or decks that are best for you.

Mentalism Demonstration
with James MacDonald
During the mid-1920s, from the swirl of Spiritualism, there arose a new sub-branch of entertainment: Mentalism. The mentalist presented illusions that mimicked the phenomena of the spirit medium. Jim Macdonald, a professional magician, will present a historical recreation of an evening’s “mental entertainment” such as you might have experienced in the parlor or drawing room of an upper-class apartment in New York City during a dinner party in 1925. Is it real? Depends on what your definition of “real” is. Jim promises you that it is as genuine as any such exhibition during the Roaring Twenties was, after the triumph of Temperance, Votes for Women, and the Abolition of Slavery, those fellow-travelers of the Spiritualist movement, would have been. This presentation is for entertainment purposes only.
