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.
