Lunaria Tarot

The Lunaria Tarot is a unique 78-card tarot deck and accompanying guidebook tailored for writers. Conceived by Elisabeth Kauffman, an editor, author, and artist, the deck's purpose is to serve as a tool for creative inspiration, helping writers overcome blocks, develop characters, and structure narratives. It is designed to foster a deeper connection to the creative flow and the 'magic' within a writer's life, as described by Kauffman.

The deck aims to integrate traditional tarot wisdom with prompts and insights relevant to the writing process. While specific card meanings are not detailed in the campaign, the overall concept suggests an intuitive approach to creative problem-solving, using the archetypal language of tarot to unlock new perspectives for storytelling. The inclusion of a guidebook indicates support for both tarot novices and experienced readers who are also writers.
