Supply List & Tarot Guidance
TAROT Guidance
If you have a tarot deck...
I have MULTIPLE tarot decks and the Aleister Crowley version is a classic. Lately I have been having the MOST magical experiences with this deck and when I pulled the STAR card (#17 in the Major Arcana) I just KNEW I wanted to paint it. I am planning on starting the painting during our time together and then taking it to Bali with me (unstretched canvas) to continue the "painting meditation."
I suggest focusing on the MAJOR ARCANA (22 cards) which symbolize the journey of life and the major archetypes we get to create our lives with.
You can use ANY tarot deck you like. AND take a peek at the Aleister Crowley deck images (below and easily searched) to see if any of them speak to you.
AGAIN, I feel deeply that many of you will also feel drawn to paint the STAR card and that is great.
The theme of the STAR card is all about SELF-confidence & ofllowing, trusting, your intuition. The image below is a page from The Tarot Handbook by Arrien Angeles.
If you do not have a tarot deck...
You can zoom in on the images above or click the link under the image to go to the website where I found these images.
I would simply trust the image that you feel the MOST attracted to. Then you can go HERE to read the meaning of the card. Again, we are working with the MAJOR ARCANA.
And remember, you can always not do ANY of this and paint STAR with me!
I sourced the image above HERE.
Supply List
- Whatever you want to paint on... a journal, canvas, large paper, etc.
