LAST CALL! There is one week left to sign up for this round of the Merlin Tarot Fest!

SIGN UPS ARE NOW OPEN for the Merlin Tarot Fest

Sign up for our fifth round HERE through June 30th! You’ll receive your card(s) via email within 48 hours.

Fest Info: The Merlin Tarot Fest is a fanfic and fanart challenge using tarot and oracle cards as prompts. The fanworks do not need to focus on or even include tarot, but rather will be inspired by randomly pulled card(s). Each participant will be given their own card/card combination to inspire them! You will be able to decide if you want 1, 2, 3, 5, or 10 cards for your inspiration. You will also be able to choose your pull from a limited selection of different tarot & oracle decks.

-

Check out the FAQs/Rules HERE. You can now request multiple card pulls per round if you complete a fanwork based on your first, and you can now request oracle card meanings (only if a guidebook was included with the deck - check the carrd site to see which decks have guidebooks). Reminder that you can request a tarot-only pull AND an oracle-only pull at the same time by filling out the form twice. You can then create 2 fanworks or use both pulls to inspire 1 fanwork.

New updates for this round include new tarot decks, such as the Craft Felt Tarot, the Druid Craft Tarot, the Change Tarot, the Many Queens Tarot, the Queer Crow Death Magic Tarot, and Tarotscopes. There's also one new oracle deck available: Femme Folk.

Requirements: For fanfic, writers must write a story of at least 750 words. For fanart, artists must create at least 1 piece.

Posting will be open JULY 1 - SEPTEMBER 30 Posting will not be scheduled or assigned. All participants can feel free to post to the AO3 collection anytime within the allotted posting time frame. The collection is currently closed and will reopen on July 1st.
