Yokai Tarot

Yokai Tarot

The Yokai Tarot replaces Western esoteric symbolism with creatures from Japanese folklore: yokai, spirits that protect, tease, or do both at once. Paolo Bertazzo matched each creature to a tarot arcanum by meaning, while Marga Biazzi illustrated them in a style that recalls traditional Japanese woodblock prints without losing contemporary readability.

  • Language: English
  • Quality: Sturdy storage box, 83 x 127 mm card size
  • Contents: 78 cards + guidebook with yokai stories and spreads

The cards carry no keywords, only the name of the yokai and the arcanum number, which makes the guidebook a genuine working tool rather than an afterthought.
