Curious about oracle cards, but not interested in anything rigid, performative, or overly mystical?
Join Aki Hirata Quetzalyolotzin Jewel Moon, initiated Medicine Woman, Moondancer, and founder of MINKA Constellations, for an evening of gathering, reflection, and intuitive practice—where the cards are not used to predict your life, but to help you meet it more deeply.
Food, conversation, and a softening into the body; intuition doesn’t open when we’re rushed or trying to get it right. It opens when there is space to notice. After nourishing food and conversations, we enter into the world of oracle cards as a shared practice—learning how to slow down, look, and listen in a different way.
Oracle cards are not party tricks, and not something simply made up. It is a tool to shift your attention inwards for innate knowing. There is a quieter layer of life always moving through the body and psyche - and the cards can offer a pause and space, for things to reveal itself.
Being an oracle is not forced. It is also nt about figuring out. It is a space where we meet the depth of who we truly are.
This is where intuition lives—where sensing and understanding come together, and where you do not have to choose between logic and mystery, but can be in relationship with both.
Throughout the evening, we will explore how to work with oracle cards in a grounded and personal way, the difference between intuition and anxiety, intuition and psychic ability, and the feminine arts of receptivity, patience, and subtle knowing. We will also practice soothing the mind so it does not override what is quietly emerging.
You’ll eat, pull cards, reflect, and share—if you’d like.
Instead of consumed by the fear of doing it wrong, we will simply begin by building your own relationship with intuition through body, perception, and lived experience. Simple does not mean easy; and often it could be the hardest thing because there is nowhere to hide in complexity or performance. So we begin by being present and being in relationship—with yourself, with others, and with what is unfolding - and soon you realize, you are within the vast network that conencts all of us, all the time.
When aunties, mothers, grandmothers, and crones gather to reclaim their seeing power, they restore an ancient thread of feminine wisdom that patriarchy has long tried to break. This remembrance stands against the continued sexualization, grooming, and overvaluation of the maiden at the expense of the whole feminine life cycle. It calls power back to the mature, the initiated, the seasoned, and the wise.
This workshop is part of a larger arc of remembrance, helping prepare the ground for the emerging work of the Remembering Red Priestess Facilitator Training.
Aki Hirata Quetzalyolotzin Jewel Moon Medicine Woman is attuned to various energetic healing frequencies including Usui Reiki, Earth Evolution Reiki, IET, and 13th Octave LaHoChi.

Paying it Forward
We provide most of our community offerings and private sessions by sliding scale. This is based on the idea of ‘paying it forward’ which enables more people to access healing and wellness. This works when people pay as much as they can for our offerings to help others who may be less fortunate be able to gain access, too. We believe everyone is entitled to heal and thrive, and that practitioners deserve to earn a living wage. We are all in this together and choose to do our best to take care of one another. Thank you for being part of the MINKA community!Please email if you want to work with the plant medicine micro-dose along with this journey.
