Some tarot decks are planned years in advance, carefully sketched and mapped before the first card comes to life. Alien Tarot was not one of those decks. For its creator Constance Bankus, the project began as a series of accidents. A rewatch of The X-Files, a random tarot movie, and the sudden collapse of her

I am always on a lookout to spotlight projects that not only expand what tarot can be, but actively challenge how we use it. The Axiological Tarot, created by artist and thinker Silas Plum, is one such project. Rooted in the philosophy of axiology (the study of values, I’ve just learned), this striking Kickstarter campaign

For artist and tarot creator Kara, the VIA—PAX Tarot decks were born from a deeply personal journey, blending classical influences with modern introspection.

We covered Samantha Perez‘s The Renowed Artists Tarot Kickstarter campaign in our previous post and I’m so excited to talk to her more about her project. I really enjoyed how The Renowned Artists Tarot dares to do something different—it translates the symbolisms of tarot with the legacy of history’s greatest artists. Samantha Perez brings a

In my last blog post, I was intrigued by the Departures Tarot Kickstarter campaign by Nick Jacobs. I’ve seen quite a few traditional, whimsical and licensed decks in the past few months of Fortune Teller’s Gazette but Departures Tarot offers a stark, unflinching look at life’s transitions. I’m absolutely thrilled that Nick has taken time
