Moving Rasa Discovery Cards
A hand-drawn, 33-card interconnected deck for developing relational capacity: to notice and discover new possibilities in how we relate to ourselves, other people, our surroundings, and the living world.
Rather than giving you answers or fixed meanings to interpret, the cards invite you to discover through your own experience.
“Wow, It was the type of experience where I felt my inner insides. ”
Where the Cards Come Alive
The cards don't end at the edge of the image.
A detail in a card can enter your movement, surroundings, memory, or relationships. Your actual place becomes part of what you discover.
Three Ways to Begin
Every Discovery Card can be explored in any of these three ways.
33 cards. One interconnected world
The Discovery Cards move between body, place, relationship, and imagination. Different kinds of cards offer different ways into that world.
One Ecosystem
The cards belong to a shared landscape rather than separate, isolated scenes.
A path may lead toward water. A threshold may open into another place. Forest, home, street, mountain, and gathering space can feel connected—inviting you to notice relationships across the deck and beyond it.
Six Lenses for Noticing
Some of the cards invite you to explore through six relational lenses:
Body — notice shaping, posture, action, and breath
Touch — notice sensations, contact, and relationship through surfaces
Mobilize — notice impulse, direction, pathway, and momentum
Place — notice where you are and what surrounds you
Connect — notice relationship with people and other forms of life
Imagine — notice images, associations, fantasies, and worlds that emerge
You can enter through one lens, move between several, or discover something the cards never named.
“It wasn’t what I expected, but it was what I needed.”
What You Practice Here Can Travel With You
The Discovery Cards are not about finding the “right” meaning in an image.
They give you a place to notice how you relate. What pulls you in? What do you move away from? What affects you? What happens when you try something different?
Over time, you may find more choices and more ways to respond, not only with the cards, but with yourself, other people, and the world around you.
This is what we mean by relational capacity.
I’d stop there. The idea that “what happens with the cards does not have to stay with the cards” is already contained in the third paragraph. If you really love that phrase, though, it could replace the final definition line:
What happens with the cards does not have to stay with the cards.
