Healing Heart Tarot Support Group
This is a wonderful idea - readers of Christine Jette's
Tarot for the Healing Heart are getting together online to work
through the book together. The purpose of the group is to "share exercises from the book and support each other's journeys to healing."
Anyone interested in working seriously with this book is welcome to join.
