Stephanelli's Creative Fool's Journey (updated 1st July 2023)
stephanelli posted a blog entry in Stephanelli's Creative Tarot/Oracle Blog
In the Creative Circle, we are slowly working our way through the major arcana via The Fool's Journey. I wanted to document my own journey in its fullness here. This blog post will be updated each time I post a project to the Creative Circle so do check back regularly if you're interested. 0 The Fool For the Fool, I represented the fresh start and taking a step of faith into the unknown by making some moccasin shoes. 1 The Magician I decided to represent the Magician by knitting something to protect my hands. I'd noticed that in a number of the Magician cards, the hands were often being used to channel his creative energies to combine the elements in some way so this seemed a good idea! 2 The High Priestess For the High Priestess, I used inspiration from some of my animal decks to connect the High Priestess with a cat and created this cute crochet cat, called Mysti, in the colours of the High Priestess's cloths from the RWS and The Herbal Tarot decks. (For more information on why this photo is staged this way please head to the Creative Circle for March 2023...) 3 The Empress For the Empress, I was inspired to create something using ingredients from nature, so I made Nettle Leaf Syrup! 4 The Emperor The Emperor inspired me to create databases for various things: - my book collection - my knitting needle and crochet hook collection - my classical piano pieces so I can find different versions more easily in my books 5 The Hierophant 6 The Lovers 7 The Chariot 8 Strength 9 The Hermit 10 Wheel of Fortune 11 Justice 12 The Hanged Man 13 Death 14 Temperance 15 The Devil 16 The Tower 17 The Star 18 The Moon 19 The Sun 20 Judgement 21 The World -
What decks, books or other tarot-related items are you waiting to receive in the mail? I recently opened my mailbox and found the Gendron Tarot and the Secrets of the Mystic Grove Oracle deck.

Hey everyone, back with my other one! I had this one up at AT, not super popular there but hopefully I'm working out the bugs. It was the Ancient Celtic Tarot but I dunno, just didn't sit right, since of course they had no Tarot images per se. But a Tarot comprised of images based on relics, that I can get behind, and I am! So the originals of the cards were rough pen & ink drawings combined with some computer graphic stuff. I've been spending the day with the printer trying to fix the resolution problem I discovered so far in. I had been taking the images and hand-drawing the entire thing in pencil and then re-scanning at 300 dpi, but that is TONS of work and may not be an improvement on the originals anyway. So without further ado, here is the first card! Printed it has a sort of watercolor effect; we also don't have the world's greatest printer and it could be that better equipment would improve things. Also, the card back:

Hi! I just wanted to share a picture of my new folder and journal for tarot study. I'll primarily be working with Benebell Wen's Holistic Tarot. I'm excited to get started on Monday when the book arrives, but for now I'm getting organised. I'm going to use the folder for my readings and general notes, and the journal for card interpretation (I'm considering setting it up for each card in advance with stick on images of the cards but it would be a LOT of work. (not pictured: new fountain pen and sapphire ink on its way) I would love to see how others organise their study!

Hi all, haven't been at the forum for a while but I have something to announce! I'm finally starting serious work on my deck idea that has been fermenting for something like 15 years. It's photographic and more than that I won't say, I'll be coming back with photos when I have them to show. Stay tuned! I'm planning to submit to US Games because they seem like a really good fit. Be back soon!

Here is where you let us know what card you wish to make. Its first come first serve! And do remember the deadline: if your work is not done by the end of April, no matter the circumstances, it will be re-assigned to someone else. We want to finalize this deck by the end of May and have it available before the summer. So do not leave it to the last minute!! Now, here is a list of the card titles. As you can tell, there are some small adjustments made, most notably to the court cards - Pages are now Novices, Knights are Explorers, Queens are Nurturers, and Kings are Elders. This was done in order to make them gender neutral. Some of the Majors have also received new or slightly altered titles, like the High Priestess who has become the Seer and the Hierophant who has become the Sage. The Hanged man is now the Hanged One and the World is the Universe. The suits are simply named after the four elements. I think @stephanelli summed it up really well when she explained her thoughts on the difference between some of these new titles: "To me, an Elder (in our deck that is the King) is like the head-person in charge of tribe. The one who makes the decisions, leads the tribe in all physical/material/worldly things. The Sage (in our deck, the Hierophant) is kind of like the tribe's spiritual leader. The one who connects the tribe to their religion. The Seer (the High Priestess) is the one who can read the signs and symbols and cast the runes or lay the cards and use intuition to give advice." This is of course only one way of seeing it so please feel free to interpret those titles in the way that resonates with you! Also, only sign up for one card - once that card is complete you may sign up for another one. But we will only allow one Major Arcana card per person! Titles 0. The Fool - Wanderer COMPLETE 1.

From the album: Esoteric Decks
This is a full colour 78-deck of cards by Lynda Stevens that was begun in the 80's and developed over time, in an art deco/surrealistic style. They are intended to reflect the hopes and fears of the current times and are in themselves a commentary on topical esoteric ideas, following on from the philosophy that the Tarot is a devil's picture book depicting the Fool's, or Everyman's fall from original cosmic unity into a bewildering world of division and conquest - and adventure from innocence to experience. The majors were published by Adam Mc Clean in 2006 in a limited edition for collectors. They are now self-published by Lynda Stevens in a new and updated format and are available at Gamecrafter in three sizes: new version, jumbo version, and poker size. They are also available in Tarot and Jumbo sizes at Printer Studio. Updates and news can be followed on Facebook and on Lynda Steven's website. A book setting out the ideas and concepts behind this Pack is still available at blurb.com, but an updated version of the book may be requested as a pdf at nexus10@live.com© @Lynda Stevens 2020
