The Archigonium – A Science Tarot
The Archigonium is an extraordinary tool designed to explore humanity's unresolved questions through an associative and projective method. Unlike a classical tarot deck, it has no esoteric background but instead serves to foster creative thinking and connect seemingly distant concepts.
The process begins with clearly formulating a question. This can be done alone, in conversation with others, or in a group. Once the question is posed, three cards are drawn from the deck. Each card offers three interpretive elements: a name, an image, and an interpretive text in the accompanying booklet.
How It Works:
-
Pose a Question: Start by clearly formulating a question. This can be done alone, in discussion with others, or within a group.
-
Draw Cards: Draw three cards from the deck one by one:
- The first card represents the past.
- The second card symbolizes the present.
- The third card signifies the future.
-
Interpretation: Each card provides three interpretive elements: a name, an image, and an interpretive text in the accompanying booklet. Analyze how these components relate to one another and to the question at hand.
Purpose:
The cards are meant to collectively provide an answer or perspective on the posed question. By interpreting the past, present, and future, a creative thought process is initiated, forming new connections and enabling fresh approaches to problem-solving.
The key to using the Archigonium lies in interpretation. Either in dialogue or silent reflection, examine how the elements of the drawn cards might relate to the question. The goal is not to find definitive answers but to encourage associations and creative thinking that offer new perspectives on seemingly unsolvable problems.
The Archigonium invites you to break out of familiar thought patterns and discover innovative viewpoints on complex questions.
Enjoy!
