In Between Tarot

In Between Tarot: Discover the Sacred Space Between the Cards

The In Between Tarot offers a revolutionary perspective on the traditional 78-card deck. Rather than focusing solely on the static moment of a single Arcanum, this deck invites you into the liminal space—the "in-between" moments where one card evolves into the next. Created by Janine Worthington and brought to life through the evocative art of Franco Rivolli, this deck captures the fluid energy of life’s transitions, making it a powerful tool for those seeking to understand the process of change.

The visual style is rich and atmospheric, blending traditional Rider-Waite-Smith symbolism with a sense of motion and storytelling. It reveals the hidden narrative of the tarot, showing us not just where we are, but where we are going and how the journey unfolds.

Symbolism and Themes

The core philosophy of the In Between Tarot is the concept of "becoming." Each card acts as a bridge, illustrating the dynamic relationship between two successive cards in the Tarot sequence. This approach helps the reader visualize the energy of the "transitional moment," providing a deeper layer of meaning to every spread.

By exploring how the Magician begins to transform into the High Priestess, or how the Wheel of Fortune begins its descent toward Justice, the deck emphasizes the connectivity of the human experience. Themes of evolution, cause and effect, and the subtle shifts in our spiritual path are at the forefront of this deck’s wisdom.

Practical Use

This deck is exceptionally well-suited for readings regarding personal growth, timing, and relationship dynamics, where the "flow" between states is more important than a fixed outcome.
