What's in the deck

Crosspoint is built around a single situation: you are at a turning point. Maybe a small daily one, maybe a years-long one. The cards don't tell you what to do — they give you scenes to look at, and a way to ask yourself what you actually see in them. The deck is a projective tool: you bring the meaning, the card gives you a frame to put your tangled thoughts into.

Groups

Thresholds

Doors, gates, edges. Moments before stepping in or stepping out.

Forks

Two-or-more paths. The classic crossroads scene.

Trails

Movement already in progress. Walking, climbing, going through.

Resistance

Walls, weather, terrain that pushes back.

Anchors

Places of pause. Where you wait, settle, gather.

Shores

Where one path ends. Arrival, completion, the next opening.

Techniques where this deck fits

These are the self-reflection techniques in our Self-Work Navigator that work well with this deck:

When to pick

You're stuck on a decision

Job, relationship, project, move. The cards don't decide for you, but they often surface what you already know.

You're in the middle of a transition

Something has already changed and you're walking through it. Trails and Resistance groups carry this well.

You want to mark an ending

The Shores group is built for this — closing a chapter without rushing into the next one.

You're testing whether you're ready

Thresholds group — the moment before stepping in. Useful when you keep almost-deciding.

When this isn't the right deck

Crosspoint is good at one thing: questions about choice and movement. It's a narrower deck than Light Within or The Open Door. If your question is about an emotion or a state, pick a more open deck. If you're in acute crisis, talk to a person, not a card. The deck is not tarot, not an oracle, not a diagnostic instrument — the card doesn't predict anything.

About metaphorical associative cards (MAC)

Metaphorical associative cards (MAC) are a projective tool used in self-reflection, coaching and therapy. Unlike tarot or oracle cards, they don't predict anything — the image becomes a mirror for what is already happening inside you.

You can work with MAC cards alone in a quiet 5-minute session, with a therapist, or in a group. The card is not the answer; it is a frame for asking yourself a more honest question.

On MAC Cards Online, every public deck is free to try in your browser — no installation, no registration. The platform also has Self-Work Navigator with 8 guided techniques that walk you through a session step by step.
