An inspiring exploration of how tarot can support creativity, reflection, and artistic practice.
The Fool’s Leap invites artists, writers, and curious creatives to use tarot as a powerful framework for imaginative inquiry, self-reflection, and creative momentum.
Drawing on more than thirty years of lived creative experience, Bennett demonstrates how tarot’s archetypes, symbols, and stories can help nurture intuition, strengthen self-trust, and guide artists through uncertainty, creative block, and periods of transition.
Rather than offering fixed answers, tarot is presented as a tool for asking better questions—about process, intention, direction, and the evolving nature of creative work itself.
Blending personal insight with accessible exercises, the book introduces tailored spreads, creative prompts, and intuitive techniques designed to help readers remain engaged with their work and build a sustainable creative rhythm.
Thoughtful, practical, and encouraging, The Fool’s Leap offers support for anyone standing at the edge of a new idea, returning to a creative practice, or searching for inspiration and clarity in their artistic journey.
