schwellenkarten
80 cards for states, patterns and transitions. To draw, arrange and read. Their arrangement gives what you notice a further context.
States, patterns, transitions – to draw, lay out, read.
Each card describes a threshold – a psychological place you know but rarely name. The cards can be read along axes: as a map rather than an answer.
80 cards. Freely interpretable. Freely combinable.
The Extended Set in the app has 21 additional cards. The app is currently in German.

working with the cards
Draw. One card, blindly. Not as an oracle – as a sample. The question is not what the card knows about you, but what you notice as you read.
Lay out. Every threshold has a place, a passage, a movement. Lay cards along one of these lines: before / beyond. permeable / sealed. toward it / away from it. The arrangement reveals tensions that remain invisible in isolation.
Read. Cards as vocabulary. A state that has a name can be looked at. Often that is already enough.
The cards diagnose nothing. They do not replace therapy or promise any effect. They are material – language for states that otherwise have none. What you do with them remains up to you.
in practice
The cards are made for individual work – but they are also suitable as material in a professional setting: to open a conversation, for externalization, in work with inner parts.
Accompanying material for therapeutic and counseling work is in preparation. If you want to work with the cards: write to me. I am looking for feedback from practice.
The cards come from my own practice: 25 years of somatic work, work with the sides model, a background in production design – building spaces, including inner ones.
