I frequently get to request certain items, but other times, I get things sent to me without requesting them. And let me tell you, left to my own devices, I NEVER would have requested The Archeo.Thankfully, Jake at Llewellyn didn&#8217;t ask me, he knew I needed to see this.<\/p>\n<p>Even when The Archeo: Understanding &#038; Developing Archetypesby Nick Bantock arrived, I had no intention of reviewing it. However, I was like, I should at least open and thumb through the deck. As soon as I started shuffling through the cards, I stopped dead in my tracks. These cards seriously resonated with me and considering that The Archeois about universal archetypes, I thought that meant this deck was pretty damn special.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/themagicalbuffet.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/20210323_172933-271x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"271\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-17129\" \/>Nearly every deck is marketed as a tool of self-discovery, but The Archeois a tool ONLY for self-discovery. The 40-card deck and its accompanying 204 page, full-color companion guide help you create your personal mythology. Bantock expands on Jung and Campbell&#8217;s idea of archetypes, crafting the 40 presented in The Archeothat include alchemist, demon, midwife, wolf, greenman, falcon, and more. There are even two blank cards provided in case you discover a new archetype you want to work with. Each card has artwork created by Bantock, and you know how I&#8217;m a sucker for deck authors being able to illustrate their own deck. (I not so secretly wish I could create visual art..or write effectively for that matter!)<\/p>\n<p>The ways you can use The Archeoare limited only by your imagination, but Bantock provides some ideas for layouts and spreads. Also, he wrote a story focusing on each card, to help you understand them better.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re ready to take a journey within, The Archeois for you!<\/p>\n<p>You can learn more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.llewellyn.com\/product.php?ean=9780738764405\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Do you enjoy The Magical Buffet?
