Step Into the Fool’s Journey with Steps of the Arcana: Tales of Transformation
I’m excited to share a new creative project from my husband, Matt Green: Steps of the Arcana: Tales of Transformation, now available to back as a digital PDF on Kickstarter.
Steps of the Arcana combines tarot, storytelling, and reflective journaling to help you explore the Fool’s Journey as a story of your own personal transformation.
Turn the Tarot Into Your Own Story
The Fool’s Journey is traditionally viewed as the symbolic path through the Major Arcana. It begins with the hopeful Fool stepping into the unknown and continues through experiences involving love, strength, uncertainty, sacrifice, change, and renewal.
These archetypes can also represent the stages and turning points we encounter in our own lives.
Matt created Steps of the Arcana as a solo journaling experience that allows you to move through this journey for yourself. Rather than simply reading the cards, you use their themes to create, reflect, imagine, and write.
The result is a personal tale of transformation shaped by your choices, experiences, and interpretation of the cards.
190 Writing Prompts to Inspire You
The digital PDF contains 190 writing prompts designed to guide you through the tarot and the Fool’s Journey.
You can approach the prompts as:
A personal journaling practice
A creative writing game
A tool for self-reflection
A way to deepen your understanding of tarot
Inspiration for characters and stories
A structured creative challenge
You don’t need to consider yourself a professional writer or an experienced tarot reader. The prompts provide a place to begin, while still leaving room for your imagination and intuition to lead the way.
You can write a few sentences, fill an entire journal page, or develop your responses into a much larger story. There is no single correct way to take the journey.
Created for Tarot Readers, Journalers, and Storytellers
Steps of the Arcana lives in the space where tarot and storytelling meet.
Tarot has always contained the pieces of a compelling story: characters, conflicts, choices, reversals, discoveries, and transformation. Matt’s journaling game brings those elements forward and invites you to become an active participant.
This project may be especially meaningful for:
Tarot readers interested in exploring the cards more deeply
Journalers looking for thoughtful new prompts
Writers searching for inspiration
Artists who enjoy creating from symbolic themes
People moving through a period of personal change
Anyone curious about the Fool’s Journey
Because this edition is digital, you can use it on your computer or tablet or print it at home. There is no shipping charge and no package to wait for in the mail.
A New Kind of Tarot Experience
While tarot is often associated with readings and divination, it can also be a remarkable framework for creative exploration.
The cards ask us to think about where we have been, what we fear, what we desire, and what may be waiting beyond the next threshold. They remind us that transformation rarely happens all at once. It occurs through a series of choices, challenges, endings, and new beginnings.
That is the heart of Steps of the Arcana.
It is not about predicting one fixed future. It is an invitation to explore possibilities, discover unexpected parts of yourself, and create a story that belongs entirely to you.
Now Funded on Kickstarter
We’re thrilled that the campaign has already surpassed its original funding goal. Thank you to everyone who has supported Matt’s work and helped bring this digital edition to life.
The Kickstarter campaign runs through August 18, 2026, so there is still time to join the journey and receive the digital PDF.
