About this Event
This workshop will focus on exploring ways to use the tarot to guide and develop your writing.
We'll look at how to use the evocative imagery of the cards for insights and guidance on the writing journey itself, and also ways to apply its archetypes and themes in fiction writing to access layers of character, setting, and story.
There will be a series of practical tarot exercises to help you tap into intuition. We will then build on this so that you can apply guidance from the tarot directly to your writing. You will also get plenty of time to discuss the insights you receive from the world(s) of the tarot.
The workshop is suitable for beginner and intermediate writers also interested in tarot, whether you're looking for new ways to enhance your writing or interested in deepening an existing relationship with tarot.
If you have a tarot deck of your own, feel free to bring it, but don't worry if not because I'll bring a few decks along. I find the variations in style and art work on the cards to be helpful inspiration, and I want you to experience this too!
