I’d like to tell you a little bit about how this creation came about. Also, to enhance the use of the deck, I have put several downloadable helpful charts on my website.
The inspiration for creating Polarity Wellness Tarot deck came from a conversation I had over dinner with my former Polarity teachers. I was telling them about a slide show I had developed with a colleague, showing world art images that related to the Tarot. I wasn’t sure where we could take the presentation, or if it could sustain my colleague and myself. I was asking for advice.
They suggested creating a product. On the way home from dinner it became clear; I was going to create my own somatic (of the body) Tarot deck. I was already integrating Tarot into my bodywork sessions and creating a deck, put my artistic background to use.
Four years later the deck was complete.
After querying the deck for publication, I was offered a contract not for the deck but for a book on Tarot and the Chakras. I decided to go ahead and self publish the deck. This meant that I had to completely pare down what is now the User’s Guide. I knew from my bio monthly, full and new moon reading exchanges that there was another project, after the deck, so the offer made sense.
Tarot and the Chakras: Opening New Dimensions to Healers will be released at the end of May (see: Amazon). The book deepens understanding of the deck and where Tarot can take you. It integrates Tarot within the framework of the Chakra system. Further it gives suggested exercise practices, home remedies and meditations to facilitate the guidelines given by the Tarot. Each card description includes attributes, advice and a story.
I will keep you notified of relating stories, articles and offerings to add wisdom and perspective to what I do and so you know where to find me. Please contact me if you have questions.
