SoulCards 1
Deborah Koff-Chapin
In a 1995 review, The Bookreader said that SoulCards were “due to become an American deck of reference." They were right! SoulCards broke new ground in the realm of divination decks and have yet to meet their match. SoulCards have found their way into people's lives all over the world.
SoulCards are easy to use, yet tap great depths. They encourage people to turn their awareness toward their own inner wisdom. When a card is chosen in association with a question, the image often evokes immediate insight. The strength of response confirms the universality of images that are drawn from depth levels of the psyche. The guidebook does not offer written meanings. Rather, it supports people to use their creative resources to delve further into the personal meaning of selected images through journal writing, storytelling, visualisation, movement, dream incubation and other expressive modalities. When used in relationships and groups, SoulCards catalyse refreshing responses and authentic communication.
The many ways the cards are used reflect the simplicity and openness of the system. They are used by a broad range of professionals including therapists, creative writing teachers, health care workers, managers, youth counselors, workshop leaders, corporate consultants, life coaches, support groups, intuitives, and people of all ages interested in their own soul development. Children are fascinated with the images, and often verbalize with unexpected wisdom and maturity. The uses of SoulCards are endless!
Through her years of Touch Drawing, Deborah tapped into a universal level of the human soul.
Out of thousands of drawings, she selected 60 to share with the world in the best selling, independently published SoulCards. Five years later, she harvested 60 more images to create SoulCards 2. Each deck is complete unto itself. When used together they offer an even richer range of imagery.
Their unique packaging includes a portfolio box to carry the deck, nested within a book-sized outer box that can be re-used as a frame to display a selected card. All the images in the deck are shown in miniature on the back of the packaging. The companion guidebook offers creative ways to gain personal insight from the images.
Since their release in 1995, SoulCards have found their way into people's lives all over the world. Over 75,000 decks have been sold, mainly through small, independently owned bookshops and word-of-mouth. The strength of response confirms the universality of images that are drawn from depth levels of the psyche. The many ways the cards are used reflect the simplicity and openness of the system.
