From the solitary Hermit to the divine High Priestess, the tarot deck has a lot of interesting characters. Write a persona poem that portrays one of these characters to break away from your usual poetic voice. What would the meaning of your favorite tarot card be? What kind of message would they like to convey? Consider letting your tarot deck guide your writing session's themes for a less literal but still tarot-related prompt. If you choose the Lovers card, for instance, you might write about relationships and love, while if you choose the Sun card, you might write about what happiness and success mean to you.

Your tarot pull can help you with inspiration by directing you to approach your writing practice with a particular energy, in addition to serving as a writing prompt. For instance, if you pull the Moon card, it could be a sign that you should trust your instincts when writing and not be afraid to look into dark topics. Buy a poetry-themed tarot deck to combine your two favorite pastimes. Gifting a poetry-themed deck to a friend in your poetry book club or writing workshop is even better because buying tarot cards for yourself is considered to be more fortunate. With the larger group, you could also organize a tarot deck gift exchange.
