One year--when I was a college student (so awhile ago!) instead of doing homework, I spent one semester with a big stack of magazines, a glue stick, and 3" x 5" cards ---and cut and pasted and created this intuitive TAROT DECK. I created it intuitively, and when I "read" the cards---a do this intuitively. I just intuitively picked the words from the same large pile of magazines that I cut the images from--I think I cut out a pile of phrases that appealed to me, then cut out images that appealed to me, then just started putting them together. Once I made 52 cards, I laminated them. These are now getting old and worn, and I still occasionally take them out and lay them out to see what turns up....
I went through the deck and pulled some out....totally random....
(Seems the type might be a bit small to read in these scans----so the ones that are not readable--I have added the [unreadable] words underneath the cards.)
Top left says: increased critical attention Top right: unspoken truths were beneath the mask
Top left: it's your night to howl top right: a shift in the wind
Bottom left: radical new definitions bottom right: accept risk
Top left: tell the truth top right: the circle unbroken
bottom left: to know what is possible bottom right: the power of potential
Top left: could it really have been here all along?
Bottom right: the right to dare everything
Now--why am I left with the sense that these cards--picked at random--- are all about change? hmmmm...could be personal change, could be that we humans are on the verge--the cusp---of a large shift...what do you think?
The ruminations of an artist on art & life...art quilts, beading, knitting, drawing, painting, printmaking, bookmaking are all my passions, I love to explore creating....
