Be the change – a set of cards accompanied by a guidebook, all packaged in a beautiful box. Created by Vanessa Jane Smith of Crafting Connection, a dear campfire sister and friend of mine, and I am grateful to have been a small part of the birthing process of these wonderful cards. One of the cards “is me” even… symbolically speaking.

Vanessa presents the cards thus: Here are 53 invitations to play and stretch your thinking. They will make you stop, wonder, perhaps even confuse you for a second. They will put you in a new place where new ideas can come forward. 

Funnily enough, while drawing my card of the day, number 49 Trust and Let go, the image and the message is just what I needed to see and read right now: No matter what you are faced with now, you have a choice – to maintain the present order of things or to let go and allow it to reform. […] What do you now choose to definitively move towards?

You can buy these cards for yourself (from the website or the FB-page), and I so urge you to, as they are stunning, in all ways possible! Or as Vanessa frames it:

The cards and guidebook are a gift to you to be your own expert your own leader within each moment of every day.

Shake off any judgement or struggle because this is different from anything else you’ve done before.

Pick a card, jump in, and play!

Notice what comes up in you.

Perhaps it will trigger a feeling, an answer, an idea which you can bring into the group or just ponder on for a while.

This is how you will join new dots and connect new thoughts, ideas, and feelings in a new way.

So pick a card and start playing!
