About this Deck
The Flight of The Butterfly Tarot captures a vivid, powerful "vibe" that resonates with anyone undergoing significant life changes. The artwork is lush and evocative, blending natural motifs with ethereal symbolism. Each of the 78 cards serves as a window into a dreamlike world where the mundane meets the magical. The deck’s aesthetic is both sophisticated and raw, designed to trigger intuitive hits and deep emotional responses during a reading. The rose-gold gilding adds a touch of celestial light, making every shuffle feel like a sacred ritual.
Symbolism and Themes
This deck is deeply rooted in the mythic narrative of Eros and Psyche—the classic tale of the soul's journey toward divine love and realization. The butterfly, central to the deck’s theme, represents the psyche’s ability to transcend its current form and emerge renewed. By weaving ancient mythology into the traditional Tarot structure, Kelly Burton provides a framework for understanding "soul journeys." Themes of transformation, vulnerability, endurance, and the search for truth are present throughout the Major and Minor Arcana, making it a perfect companion for shadow work and personal growth.
The Creators
Kelly Burton
Kelly Burton is a celebrated artist and creator known for her intricate, symbolic, and myth-driven imagery. Her work often explores the interconnectedness of nature and the human spirit, a theme famously explored in her "Sacred Bee" projects. Burton’s art is characterized by its storytelling depth, inviting the viewer to look past the surface and find the hidden messages within the symbols. Her transition from the world of bees to the world of butterflies marks a new chapter in her artistic exploration of natural alchemy.
Practical Use
The Flight of The Butterfly Tarot is suitable for both traditional 78-card spreads and more intuitive, story-driven readings. Because of its mythic focus, it excels in readings concerning relationship dynamics, spiritual blockages, and transitional phases of life. The included guidebook provides context for the mythic influences, helping you bridge the gap between the cards and your personal experience.
Usage Tip: To align with the theme of transformation, pull a single card each morning and ask: "What aspect of my soul is ready to emerge today?" Allow the imagery to guide your reflection throughout the day.
