Wisdom of Place Tarot Deck: Elements of Sacred Landscapes illuminates a straightforward vocabulary of common landscape design elements as well as archetypes derived from traditional environmental knowledge and folklore. At the most fundamental level, the content will broaden a reader’s perception of the natural world. Users who wish to dive deeper into Wisdom of Place can engage with it as a medium to gain perspective on personal or professional situations by interpreting the symbolism depicted on the card and described in the guidebook—similar to how one would use a tarot deck. Whether randomly choosing a card, intentionally laying out a spread, or just perusing the guidebook, readers can find inspiration from the archetypes of nature and learn to appreciate the sacred qualities in the landscapes they encounter on a daily basis.
