Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

People have been consulting stones as a divinatory source of information and inspiration since the beginning of time. Stones from the Muse and its accompanying set of rune stones adds a new dimension to this ancient practice. Designed with the artist (anyone with a creative vision) in mind, this small set of stones is the perfect conduit for inspiration and advice from your creative muse. The simple symbols on the stones can show the way to overcome stumbling blocks with steps that make perfect sense, but that may have been overlooked in the heat of creativity. From advertisers to architects, painters to pianists, anyone with a creative personality will be delighted by the remarkable versatility of this little bag of stones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Musing on Creativity, October 9, 2000
By 
This review is from: Stones from the Muse (Paperback)
What a useful tool for the creative person to use for reflection and insight into motivation and sources of inspiration and application. A brief description of the symbol and its meaning can serve as a guide for the day, or a project... simple exercises help to make the understanding of the particular lesson, from "Play" to "Failure", a Muse in its own right. I would recommend this set highly to anyone who finds themselves "stuck" in their process, be they business oriented, artists, writers, or anyone who needs a boost to correlate ideas with action.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Motivation, September 19, 2000
This review is from: Stones from the Muse (Paperback)
I pull a stone nearly everyday and find inspiration for any creative task. Business writing is a challenge for the soul full of passion, and the runes provide fun motivation for otherwise dismal responsibilities... Thanks for the help!
