Lantern Guide Supplemental Materials

Hey folks! Thanks so much for helping this dream come to life. I apologize for the wait on these, but I wanted to get some feedback to be able to answer as many questions at once as possible.

First of all, thank you for your patience with the digital guide sheet! Feel free to refer to it here, save it on your device, or print it out to have a spare copy.

One common question I’ve gotten is how do these suits align with the traditional wands, cups, swords, and pentacles? Just like that.

Birds- Wands- Fire- Creativity/Passion

Lanterns- Cups- Water- Emotion

Trees- Swords- Air- Intellect/ Reason

Dwellers- Pentacles- Earth- Work/Money

This is how they came to me and how I felt most drawn to order them, but if you find they act for you in different ways, by all means, let them speak and make notes on what you find. If you reference the guide sheet, you’ll find general guide words for each card and a theme. These are very close to many guides from traditional decks, and I encourage you to read them from both perspectives if you have one you’re very comfortable with, or even make your own guide once you’ve reflected on the cards and your own experience.

I encourage creatives to use the cards as a prompt for journaling, creative writing, art, or any other type of passion that moves you. I regularly use them to help me pick a subject or theme for a work of art, whether it is in the subject, or the card’s meaning.

I will continue to update this blog with answers to any questions you have that I am able to answer, and hope to upload a few more materials soon, such as favorite reading layouts and examples of creative prompts. Feel free to write with any questions or thoughts!

For now, I hope you are enjoying your decks, and I would like to add that I have a few decks left, swag packs, pins, and prints, so if you would like to browse, just check out the shop tab at the top of this page.

Thank you again for all the support, feed back, and love.
