Whether you are trying to find a story direction, deepen a character, dig out of a rut, or kick-start a new narrative, these cards will bring creative insight and let your inner storyteller shine through.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJust draw a card to determine the next twist in your story (maybe “Follow That Car” or “Misunderstanding”), shape the perfect character arc (such as “Pride,” “Guardian,” then “Surprise Villain”), and much more. A guidebook offers potential readings for each individual card (upright and reverse), as well as card layouts that set up a variety of story conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAN INNOVATIVE DECK ROOTED IN STORYTELLING HISTORY: In sixteenth-century Italy, a popular parlor game would have players dealt cards depicting symbols and themes, from which the players would write poetic verses about one another. These cards would later also take on oracular meaning and over time evolve into the tarot as we know it. Then and now, cards can be powerful tools to reveal a living narrative or story direction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSHAKE UP YOUR PROCESS: Tap into unconscious currents of storytelling. Confirm where you think your story is going or be inspired to turn it in a wholly unexpected but exciting new direction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMULTIPLE INTERPRETATIONS, ENDLESSLY USEFUL: The accompanying 96-page booklet offers suggested potential meanings for each card, but these are only meant as a beginning. Take the cards at literal face value or as subjective symbols for interpretation. Upright and Reversed meanings are given for each card to expand their range of possibilities, and sample card layouts are also provided.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWIDE-RANGING CARD SUBJECTS: Subjects include The Clock Is Ticking, Flying High, A Difficult Truth, Guardian, The Key, The Perfect Sandwich, It's a Trap!, A Lesson from the Past, Something Hidden, Authority Figure, Home, Mischief, and dozens more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerfect for: Writers in any genre or medium looking to find inspiration, a fresh approach, or a starting point for a new project Fans of creative tarot decks and oracle cards An antidote to writers block or unique addition to classroom tools for writers Birthday, graduation, holiday, or anytime gift for writers and curious creatives Cool creative gift for teens and adults, paired with a writing journal or set of pens\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781797214610\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.3 x 3.3 x 1.7 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chronicle Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53417420620114,"sku":"1797214616","price":35.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1042\/0771\/2594\/files\/71vv4HrN16L.jpg?v=1778646842","url":"https:\/\/krazysales.com\/products\/the-story-oracle-a-creative-writing-inspiration-deck-78-cards-and-guidebook","provider":"K 4 Krazy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
