What is this deck? The vessel, filled or empty, is the common metaphor of a person and its state - spiritual, emotional, intellectual. I feel filled with "," This event empty me "," This is the last drop "," bowl is full of "," in me everything boils", - phrases that we often pronounce and hear when describing the emotional state of the person. "Inside as if everything is lit", "emotions so much that splashes"," everything is worn with me, like with a crystal vase, these and many other phrases of my customers pop up in memory when I think about the human metaphor and its states. Poetic lines are also remembered: "What is beauty? And why does her deify people? Are it a vessel in which emptiness, or fire flickering in a vessel? .. "(N. Zabolotsky) It is in the vessels that fabulous jinnes live, and sometimes wizards. The vessel in these cases acts as asylum, then in the role of the dungeon, - but the disembodied magic spirits live in them. This is how it can be metaphorically describe the specifics of this deck. She is primarily about man and his condition. The deck allows you to work with a me-concept, representation of a person about yourself and its capabilities, to explore the different characteristics of the personality: borders, openness-close, flexibility-rigidity, etc. This deck is not quite common. Strictly speaking, it is not completely metaphorical cards. On the one hand, it has two components (cards, symbolizing shape, and cards, symbolizing the content), from which some associative image can be folded. On the other hand, it is designed so that it opens up ample opportunities not only for traditional psychological work with metaphorical cards, but also for art therapeutic arrangement of images.
How to work with a deck? You can work with a deck in different ways.
1. The main type of work, for which the set and was created, is to combine the shape (stencil) and the background (photos) A person is invited to choose one of the vessels - the one that matches his idea of ​​herself. Then, from a variety of backgrounds, it chooses one that can symbolize its internal state - it will be a "filler" for a vessel. The stencil-vessel can be superimposed on one card-background, - in this case, the vessel will be with a homogeneous filling, or for several cards - in this case, the fillers" of the vessel will somehow be combined.
2. Since the stencil is made of laminated cardboard, it is possible to draw special washed markers on it: change the contour of the vessel, draw it, adding knobs, stands, etc. to it adds to it.
3. You can also work exclusively with photos-backgrounds as with traditional metaphorical cards
