SLPS had a lovely weekend reading tarot for the attendees of the 13th Annual Salt Lake City International Tattoo Convention from March 4-6, 2016. With the buzz of guns, the many guests wandering received ink from artist form all across the country and internationally. A few local shops were present such as Heavy Duty of Ogden, Lost Art, Big Deluxe, Good Times, Painted Temple, Oni, A.S.I., Iron Clad/Anchor Ink, and King of Swords all of Salt Lake. Just about all types of colors, styles, images, were drawn and body parts were tattooed, as people lied on tables, sat in chairs, and shopped for merchandise while seeing their favorite artist and meeting new ones.

SLPS used the Tarot of the Tattoo Age, created by the organizer of the convention. Many people came to ask the tarot their questions and get first time readings. Some even wanted palm readings afterwards. This was the first time tarot readings have been part of the convention… and SLPS had the honor of being the first readers. The readings were well received by the tattoo community.

SLPS enjoyed a good day, doing readings with the Tarot of a Thousand and One Nights at the 15th Annual Springfest on Saturday, March 5, 2016, put on by Thia. Each March the festival takes place in the Utah State Fairground promontory building and includes vendors, food, music, and more importantly, the belly dance troupes who perform from 10am to 10pm!

Those who came for readings enjoyed the tarot and its Middle Eastern theme. This was the fourth year SLPS has participated in the event and plans to enjoy many more years!

SLPS participated in the Salt Lake Interfaith Roundtable’s interfaith month by hosting an open full moon rite to the Norse Goddess Freyja. Held Sunday, February 21, 2016 from 7-9 at the Sugar Space in downtown Salt Lake, ten people gathered to see and participate in the Wiccan rite. The altar was decorated with bone runes, statues of the deities, flowers, and a drinking horn. A hand burned wooden slab of the rune Ingwas provided the perfect backdrop.

The society opened by invoking the Goddess Freyja and the All-father Odin. The song Freya by Kelliana on her album I Walk With the Goddess. The Goddess spoke to all those present and gave them advice for the next month to guide their lives. A rune was pulled for each person to give them further clarity and wisdom through divination.

The offerings were apple juice and cookies, after which sacred items presented to the Goddess were blessed and a question and answer period opened. People asked tradition differences, how Pagans view the world, and thanked SLPS for hosting as part of the interfaith.
