Favole Tarot – Gothic beauty and melancholy in every card
About this deck
Favole Tarot is a visually enchanting tarot deck, based on the work of Spanish artist Victoria Francés. Her world-famous Gothic style comes fully to life in this set of 78 cards, in which romance, mystery and darkness come together. The deck is strongly inspired by the atmosphere of the Victorian era, vampire legends and fairytale melancholy.
Symbolism and themes
The cards contain themes such as loss, longing, beauty, secrets and inner struggle. Although the deck remains faithful to the structure of the classical tarot (Major and Minor Arcana), the symbols and names are sometimes adapted to fit the Gothic atmosphere. This makes the deck unique in its kind – a work of art that is not only intended to be read, but also to be felt and experienced.
how the deck comes to life in readings
The
Favole Tarot deck is perfect for intuitive readings, self-reflection or as a source of inspiration for writers, artists and gothic fantasy enthusiasts. The cards are powerful and evocative, but less suitable for those who work exclusively with traditional Rider-Waite symbolism. The set comes with a multilingual booklet with basic meanings of the cards, but many readers mainly rely on their intuition with this deck.
Is this deck welcoming to those just starting out?This deck is especially suitable for readers with some tarot experience or a strong affinity with gothic and fantasy. Beginners can work with it, certainly intuitively, but will benefit from additional resources or tarot knowledge to fully understand the cards.
