80 tarot cards that bring together African mythology, ancestral wisdom and divine femininity. Andrea Furtick draws with holographic paper and gold foil edges, showing a wide spectrum of melanated skin tones throughout the deck.
A deck that connects representation and spiritual depth.
Most tarot decks use the same visual language. This one takes a different route. Andrea Furtick has designed 80 cards that centre African mythology, ancestral wisdom and divine femininity, with a wide spectrum of melanated skin tones throughout the deck.
The materials stand out. Each card is printed on holographic paper with gold foil edges, creating a play of light that shifts as you move the cards. The set comes with a red velvet pouch and a 94-page guidebook.
The deck contains 80 cards instead of the usual 78. Furtick has added two extra cards for deepening. The imagery combines African and Greco-Roman mythology, with divine femininity as a recurring theme.
The symbolism is rich and deliberately culturally charged. Each card shows figures in different melanated skin tones, creating a diversity you do not encounter in classic tarot decks. The holographic paper gives the cards an extra dimension, literally and figuratively.
The 94-page guidebook describes each card in both upright and reversed positions. It also contains practical advice for divination and spellwork, bringing together ancestral wisdom and modern spiritual practice.
The text is clearly written. Even if you are new to tarot you can work with it, though some experience with symbolism helps you appreciate the cultural references.
Charge the velvet pouch under moonlight when you are not using the deck for a while. The cardstock and holographic layer are sensitive to sunlight, so store them in the dark.
Andrea Furtick is an artist and spiritual practitioner. She developed the Afro Goddess Tarot Arcanas from the desire to make esoteric knowledge accessible and recognisable for a community that rarely sees itself mirrored in traditional tarot imagery. Her work combines modern art with spiritual traditions.
What is the difference between this deck and a classic Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck?
This deck has 80 cards instead of 78 and replaces European symbolism with African and Greco-Roman mythology. The imagery is contemporary and shows a diversity of melanated skin tones that you do not see in traditional decks.
Is the holographic paper sturdy enough for daily use?
The paper is thick and the finish is luxurious, but holographic cards are more sensitive to scratches and light exposure than standard cardstock. Use the included velvet pouch and store the deck away from direct sunlight.
