Healing Fictions & Tarot

Hosted by Marianne Costa

Monthly theme:

April | Feÿ Ludens - We play

Guided by Marianne Costa – Tarot master, author, and actor.
and Dr Swan Dao – psychotherapist and experience designer.

Marianne and Swan attended the same drama school
Where the body is the primary instrument
Of both interpretation and revelation.

They share a passion for art as healing:
Bringing fragmented parts into dialogue
Through imagination, symbols, and stories.

Marianne also worked with Alejandro Jodorowsky.
Together they co-authored two books
On Tarot and Family Tree Therapy.

Healing Fiction

Healing Fiction opens a space
Where symbolic storytelling
Meets psychodrama.

We re-imagine and re-compose
The stories that have shaped us.

A “fiction” is not a lie.
But seeing reality
In a new light.

Healing fiction is return
To art as ritual
And to storytelling
As the art of healing.

It is collective life-authoring.
And embodied act
Of meaning-making.

• Tarot reading and storytelling.
• Applied theatre and psychodrama.
• Imagination and improvisation exercises.
