Special message from the author:

I designed the Heart’s Compass Tarot workbook to help you joyfully explore the tarot through tarot journaling as a path to discovering your own symbols, creating personal tarot cards, and seeding new creative work. The book was inspired by over twenty-five years of engaging with the tarot. After experiencing firsthand the ways tarot could illuminate past patterns, present circumstances, and help guide choices aligned with life dreams, I wanted to create a gentle and inviting roadmap for developing an intimate, personal relationship with the cards regardless of the deck being used as a foundation for discovering one’s own symbols.

The beautiful examples of student cards, tarot inspired essays and poetry as well as layouts and exercises will deepen your understanding of your family, your life, and yourself. I invite you to stay in touch by signing up for my monthly newsletter, or join in conversation with me and the many tarot journalers I’ve met on my Heart’s Compass Tarot and Writing Facebook page, or follow me on Instagram @heartscompasstarot where I post tarot news and improvisations (artwork based on tarot cards).

I am indebted to my publishers Ruth Thompson and Don Mitchell at Saddle Road Press and Two Fine Crows Books for their savvy, love, and support. The tarot writing and tarot art classes I teach through Antioch University’s Continuing Education Program, San Diego Writers, Ink, and through my website are based on the heart’s compass approach you’ll find in Heart’s Compass Tarot.
