The Modern Goth Tarot Deck: An illustrated 78-card set of tarot cards, based on the Rider-Waite deck, with an introductory handbook
Hardcover – August 27, 2024
by Stephen Baird (Author)
Celebrating the glories of gothic style and attitude, this tarot deck and accompanying handbook will help any goth find their true path
With traditional tarot iconography given a uniquely gothic aesthetic, this deck is illustrated with sophisticated new art by illustrator--and goth--Natalie Foss. Using the 78 cards and 40-page guidebook, elegantly presented in a gift box, the deck will accompany the user on their journey toward self-knowledge, and a more profound understanding of their place in the world. The 22 cards of the traditional Major Arcana, taking the user on a journey from the Fool to the World, are a proven way to address life's challenges; the 54-card Minor Arcana, consisting of suits of Wands, Pentacles, Cups, and Swords, help us understand our creative, material, emotional, and rational selves. All are explained and demystified in the accompanying book, written by a seasoned tarot practitioner (and ex-goth) Stephen Baird, so even beginners will be able to interpret the cards they draw, singly or as part of sophisticated spreads.
