How to use the deck
A few ways you can use these Meditations:
Wild card
Pick a random card, close your eyes and imagine the words of the card as already true in your life. Notice what arises, what softens, what resists.
Medicine
Look through the deck and pick the card you most need today. Sit with it for as long as needed and return to it throughout the day if necessary.
Repetition
Pick a card and revisit it every day for at least a week. Reframing takes time. You have been doing things a certain way for years and a single sitting will not change that. Return to the card each time you meditate.
Over time, these phrases can change your perception and how you relate to your life.
Craft: Ink & Stone
Every illustration in the deck is hand-painted in sumi, the traditional Japanese ink used for calligraphy and brush painting for over a thousand years. Sumi is made from pine soot and animal glue, aged for months until it develops depth and character.
On washi paper, the ink seeps into the fibres and blurs at the edges, an effect bottled inks cannot replicate. Every stroke is made in a single movement, and nothing is corrected. The bleeds, the uneven weight, the heavier marks where the hand paused. They stay, and they are the painting.
Each card in the deck was painted by hand using this method, one card at a time.
