This is the Judgment card from I Tarocchi dell’Alba Dorata by Giacinto Gaudenzi. But the direct translation of Il Risveglio is The Awakening rather than Judgment and it is in that difference that I found inspiration for this writing prompt. I also love imagery, the witch’s hat and the shape of her horn. She walks barefoot with a posture that seems relaxed to me. Does she even realize she’s waking up the trolls?
Your writing prompt: Imagine you are one of the trolls sleeping underground. A distant noise catches your attention. It’s soft but somehow you find yourself wanting to be near it. You begin to pull yourself to the surface, the sound growing louder as you go. What does it sound like? Why do you feel drawn to it? Once you reach it, what message does it have for you?
Enjoy!
