[ONLINE] Freewriting Tarot: Free Your Intuition and Find Your Tarot Voice

We had technical difficulties when I first offered this topic in March. I've had a number of requests to repeat it. Also, my own practice with these techniques has evolved over the past few months, so I think now is a great time to offer a new-and-improved version of this topic.

It's not often acknowledged, but imagination and intuition are closely related. In this hands-on workshop, we'll explore what intuition is and how it relates to imagination. Then we'll practice using tarot card prompts for creative writing to inspire our imagination. We'll conclude with a discussion of the difference between exploring a card imaginatively vs understanding a card through traditional reading styles.

Through these creative writing exercises you'll learn to access your own intuition or inner knowing and free your natural tarot voice!

I suggest that you bring a fully illustrated tarot deck, preferably one with a lot of detail to pull from. I've had very good results with Tarot of The Abyss by Ana Tourian, The Fairy Tale Tarot by Lisa Hunt, and Shadowscapes Tarot by Stephanie Pui-Mun Law. My more recent favorites have been Tarot of the Witch's Garden by Sasha Graham and Natasa Ilincic and Mystical Realm Tarot by Lisa Porter. But any scenic deck that inspires your imagination will work!

If you'd like more info or to see an example of freewriting from a tarot prompt, I wrote a blog post sharing some of my writing exercises here.
