A tarot as an inner compass

It all starts with a sentence. A friend tells me that my work reminds her of her grandmother, who read coffee grounds. This image brings me back to this painting The Panda's Dream , where I drew a fortune teller.
But here, there's no question of predicting the future. The future isn't written. It's built, shaped, dreamed. What if my paintings could, not tell us what will happen, but help us understand where I stand, here and now?
A mirror to move forward
This tarot was not created to reveal hidden secrets. It is a compass , a space for reflection where each card becomes a landmark on the inner path.
🃏 Death becomes the Phoenix Bird, a reminder that nothing truly ends and that every transformation brings renewal.
🃏 The Popess becomes The Siren, not a guardian of mystery, but a voice that invites us to listen to our intuition.
🃏 The Magician becomes The Sentinel of the Winds, that first breath which pushes one to dare, to create, to take a first step on the path.
These are not fixed symbols. They are invitations to ask the right questions .
A mindful journey
I saw archetypes in my paintings that resonated with me. I let the images speak, and they told me a story—not one of a pre-written future, but one of movement, change, and the present moment.

Sun – Where is my energy? Do I have the momentum to move forward?
Sky – What is my intuition telling me? What thoughts should I listen to?
Earth – Am I well grounded? What foundations do I need to strengthen?
Sea – What are my emotions telling me? Are they fluid or tumultuous?

Each draw becomes a pause , a breath, a moment to observe and feel before deciding.
A draw, a reflection
This tarot has no absolute truth. It doesn't provide answers, but it helps you formulate the right questions.
Today, I'm sharing with you the February 27th spread. A snapshot, a reading of the present to shed light on what's to come.
Close your eyes for a moment. Breathe gently. Let yourself be carried away by the present moment. |
Today, we'll explore a spread that isn't meant to predict, but to inspire. An inner journey through images, colors, and symbols... A moment to take stock, feel, and perhaps open a new door on your path. |

Here is the juggler,
he is the beginning,
the first impulse,
the desire to create,
to communicate,
demonstrate,
to show himself.
Take a moment to feel this energy.
Do you feel untapped potential within yourself?
What projects are dormant within you?
and only wait for your breath to come to life.


The Dance of the Worlds reminds us
that everything is in motion,
everything changes.
Accept the cycle,
it is embracing the flow of life,
without resisting,
without clinging to the past
nor fear the future.
Are you going up,
to go down,
to observe?
What can you do to join the dance?


The initiate, with his book of secrets,
offers you an invitation to understand,
to learn,
to imagine.
Knowledge is a gateway
but with the book of secrets,
The initiate appears as the storyteller who offers the heroes the chance to experience new adventures.
Let go of your certainties.
Open your imagination!
What knowledge do you need to turn to?

To create is to dare. It is to move forward without controlling everything. |
Potential exists within you. But it reveals itself when it is set in motion, in the natural flow of life. |
Today, what can you initiate, while accepting the rhythm that surrounds you? |
Let the initiate light your path, mix knowledge and imagination to go even further |
