Quarterly Writing Workshop Series – Archetypes of the Tarot
Why archetypes matter: Archetypes are universal patterns of experience that resonate instantly with readers. In poetry, they can work as a hidden current, giving a single image or line the weight of a collective story. When a writer taps into an archetype, the symbol carries mythic associations, emotional depth, and a built‑in narrative arc, all of which can turn a brief stanza or chapter into a vivid, resonant whole. Through our generative writing, we will explore the timeless power of archetypes through the vivid symbols of the Tarot’s Major Arcana. Over four quarterly sessions, we will move from theory to practice, using the cards as a toolbox for character and story development, plot structure, and thematic depth.
Who Should Join
* Fiction writers, poets, and storytellers seeking fresh creative fuel.
* Writers‑in‑progress who want to deepen character work and thematic resonance.
* Anyone curious about Tarot symbolism and its narrative potential—no prior Tarot knowledge required.
Register for the April 26th Tarot Workshop
Register via Eventbrite.
We have changed how we've set up Eventbrite and our Zoom meeting protocols. To secure this session, you will be asked to register twice. Once on Eventbrite, then once again via Zoom. There will also be a waiting room, so please be patient as we verify everyone's identity and let participants join.
Remember that you will also need to register via Zoom. You will receive an email from Zoom with your own Zoom link. Search your email account for "Archetypes of the Tarot Confirmation" --this email will contain the link.
Another option is on your Eventbrite ticket; a button will appear 30 minutes before the start of the event that says, "Open in Zoom." You can use that button to login too, but you will still have to register.
Thank you for your patience!
