Writing & Revelation

Live the Questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future,
you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.

ENTERING POETIC MYSTERIES

In these 90-minute sessions, poems become gateways of insight and inspiration
for our writing. We dwell imaginatively with language and enter the spaces it opens in us,
allowing our voice to emerge in response.

This is an invitation to let language reveal us to ourselves.
Each session is a practice of listening, conversation and creative process :
revelation through the act of writing.

*Quiet the critical mind.

*Journey into your undomesticated imagination.

*Savor language and conversation.

*Inhabit yourself through words.

More about the Series

Something happens when we meet inside language—when we follow unexpected currents in words, rhythm, and meaning. In this workshop series, we step into language and re-compose it, play with words and let them move through us. This is about trusting what comes – discovering unexpected connections, new ways of seeing and the wild undercurrents of meaning that undo us a little.

How do we listen deeply—to language, to silence, to what stirs beneath the surface? Together, we’ll engage with text as a living presence—something to be received rather than analyzed—and approach writing as an underground stream that flows through us.

This will be a space for unguarded experimentation, inquiry and
an intimate reckoning with language – an encounter with words as a living force.

We'll explore:

The texture of words
The intelligence in resistance
Invocatory language
Intuitive responses to text and the world around us

Each session will include immersive reading, somatic ‘recoveries’, writing and conversation. Alongside Lectio Divina, (a method of engaging viscerally with language) we may experiment with other
intuitive methods of working with text, imagery, and metaphor.

Open to writers, artists, the curious and the skeptical.
No experience required.

About Divinatory Poetics

For the purposes of creative adventure, I curate atmospheric, loosely-ritualized, non-dogmatic, experimental laboratories in which people can be alone-together, immersed in their journey and where attuning to nature, instinct, emotional weathers and the absurdity of it all is part of the dance.

These sessions are of interest to those who wish to explore the creative process and examine language, intuition, meaning and ideas. Participants will scout pathways into their imaginative interior and emerge with material to develop, refine and fertilize other projects.

Reviews for Divinatory Poetics

It was such a privilege being in Regan’s class. It was exactly what my body and spirit were looking for. The hunger/desire to be engaged with reading other poets and delving into our own creations was palpable. My system so appreciated the whole body experience of reading and writing poetry; the inner critics were really quiet and curiosity and willingness to write into the unknown was there. In other words, Regan made me/us feel safe and as a result I was able to write freely from my body. That meant a great deal to me!!! I definitely hope to reconnect and retake this class! It has been life-changing.
~Pavlina Gatikova (writer/teacher)

You really offer something so completely different--soul-driven--deepening. It is glorious. I get so tired of disembodied poetry classes and discussions. You got us down into the depths so well. THANK YOU! I'll be signing up again!
~Laurie Mcmillan (poet/writer)

Regan's divinatory poetics workshop is a huge, generative pleasure, a wellspring I was yearning for and more. What I learned in the workshop is now at the heart of the creative practice I do. I recommend highly!
~Karen Divine (artist/educator)

This was one of my first official writing classes, and it was a ‘sign up the night before' and ‘totally last minute' decision that was made completely on a whim.....and I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of this class. I didn't know what to expect, and it was beyond what I could have hoped for. Regan's teaching style is brilliant.....a mix of gentle tenderness, powerful insight, and thoughtful instruction. The conversations that we had as a group were beautifully unscheduled and unplanned and were deeply inspiring to be a part of; I weirdly felt more connected to the other participants than I was expecting. I would HIGHLY recommend this class and can't wait to find ways to have Regan as a teacher again!
~Hannah Harman (mother, creative explorer)

I love this work and it has clearly upped my poetry to a higher level. I thank you for that.
~Jill Kelly (editor, author, painter)

You and your class provided a rich, safe space to nudge intuition into a leading role. I believe that this is what I need included in my writing experience as I continue to learn craft. Thank you, Regan.
~Arlene Dollard (poet/writer)

I find this work extraordinary and extremely useful. Thank you for being so gracious and so welcoming.
~Christine Irving (poet/writer)

I attended Divinatory Poetics because of my appreciation of and interest in Regan’s art practice. Regan is a skilled facilitator and found the perfect balance between productivity and allowing time and space for individual exploration to blossom. The careful combination of meditation, writing, and conversation kept me softly focused—my regular mindless inner chatter was quiet. It was a beautiful and deeply informative experience.
