Good Fortune Tarot feels like a classic tarot world turned slightly on its axis. You recognise much of Rider-Waite-Smith, yet small, clever shifts keep your eyes awake. The description even highlights one detail: Justice tipping the scales with her knee. Choices like that give the deck its own personality, as if the cards invite you not only to predict, but to play with perspective.
This tarot deck includes 78 cards and a full-colour companion book of 272 pages, in English, published by Llewellyn Publications.
The approach of this tarot deck frames fortune as something you can work with when life pulls you along. The imagery stays close to Rider-Waite-Smith, while adding “clever touches” of the Marseille tradition, so certain cards feel fresh without becoming unrecognisable. That makes it appealing if you like familiar symbolism, but want new emphasis points.
There are also tangible production choices: the cards have a linen finish, and the full-colour guidebook is printed with soy-based ink on FSC paper. A playful feature is that The Emperor and The Empress fit together to form a panorama when placed side by side. In the supplied reader comments, the deck is also described as easy to shuffle and the book as written in an accessible way.
Barbara Moore has loved tarot for over 35 years. Her bio says she has shuffled and taught tarot all over the world, and now focuses on writing books and creating decks. She mentions Steampunk Tarot, Good Fortune Tarot, and Trick or Treat Tarot among her favourites.
Jessica Roux is a Nashville-based freelance illustrator, gardener, and plant and animal enthusiast. She is described as someone who enjoys being surrounded by nature, even in her own backyard. Using subdued colours and rhythmic shapes, she renders flora and fauna with intricate detail and an “old world” sense of beauty.
This tarot deck works well if you like reading with a foundation you already know, while still being surprised by small shifts in symbolism. It also helps if you appreciate a companion book that speaks plainly, without feeling like you need to study for weeks before you can lay cards.
If you want a strictly traditional deck with no new interventions, the Marseille accents and playful tone may feel less fitting. This deck seems intentionally made to nudge you into looking a little more daringly.
Place The Emperor and The Empress together, then draw one card as “what stands between them?”. Use that card as a focus for your reading, as if you’re adding the missing scene to the panorama.
Good Fortune Tarot is an English-language tarot deck with 78 cards and an extensive full-colour book, blending Rider-Waite familiarity with Marseille touches and a playful take on fortune.
