Long before tarot cards and oracle decks, people looked to the bones.

Across countless cultures and traditions, casting bones has been used to seek guidance, uncover hidden influences, and tell the stories that words alone cannot reveal. Each piece carries its own symbolism, and together they create a unique language that becomes deeply personal to the reader.

In this immersive workshop, you'll be introduced to the fascinating practice of bone throwing, not as a rigid system to memorise, but as an intuitive divination art that grows alongside your own spiritual practice.

You'll learn how to begin building a meaningful casting kit, begin designing your own personalised casting mat, and discover how different objects work together to tell a story. Whether your collection eventually includes bones, shells, stones, charms, feathers, seeds, crystals, or found objects, you'll leave with the knowledge to continue developing a system that is uniquely your own.

During the workshop you'll:

🦴 Explore the history and traditions of bone throwing across different cultures
✨ Learn how casting kits are created and why every reader's set is unique
🌿 Discover how to assign personal meanings to different objects
🌀 Create your own bone throwing mat for future readings
🔮 Learn the foundations of interpreting a cast and reading the relationships between pieces

You'll create and take home:

🦴 The beginnings of your own personalised bone throwing kit
🌀 A handmade bone throwing mat to continue your divination practice
📖 Ideas and guidance for expanding your collection over time

No previous experience is necessary, just curiosity, creativity, and an open mind.

What to bring:
• A journal and pen
• Any small natural or meaningful objects you'd like to incorporate
