The season of Imbolc is associated with the Goddess Brigid: poet, metalsmith, and healer. Imbolc is also a time of the germination of seeds as the earliest of spring flowers start to grow.
In honor of poet Brigid and of the potential held in seeds, we are writing short form tarot interpretations, seeds of cards, through poetry or other brief forms.
Theme: Short Form Card Interpretations
Shall we hop for Imbolc? During the last hop we brainstormed an idea for a poetry hop. The challenge is to explore cards through short form interpretations, particularly very short poems such as haiku. The idea is to capture the seed, the tiny essence, of a card. The use of haiku is a suggestion only. Short form interpretations could be written in any of the following styles: limericks, knock-knock jokes, poetic metaphors, etc. Or could even include quotes from literature, movies, or songs:
- Choose three cards to interpret in the short format of your choice.
- Do a three card spread
- Just select three cards by reason or random
Introduction as well as additional explanation or interpretation would have to be limited as well, to a 500 word count total for the post, as always if the muses speak, then let them flow, and go with what the 'feels' gives you...
