Writer\u2019s Challenge for Spring 2027<\/h2>\n

Choose ONE card from the choices above, put the name of your card under the word\/line count<\/i><\/h3>\n

This issue is dedicated to Samuel R. Delany<\/a>, who wrote the groundbreaking novel Nova<\/i>, published January 1, 1968 and had somewhat to say about tarot in those pages.<\/p>\n

\u201cMouse, the seventy-eight cards of the Tarot present symbols and mythological images that have recurred and reverberated through forty-five centuries of human history. Someone who understands these symbols can construct a dialogue about a given situation. There\u2019s nothing superstitious about it.\u201d \u2015 Samuel R. Delany, Nova<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n
