1001 Cards – Let your imagination travel through the Orient

About this deck

The 1001 cards, designed by Canadian artist Andrée Pouliot and published by OH Verlag, form an enchanting deck that takes you to the mystical world of the Orient. The set consists of 55 artistically illustrated cards, each of which functions as a visual story - rich in color, symbolism and atmosphere. Inspired by the age-old stories of Sheherazade, the cards invite you to create new stories, full of magic, wisdom and imagination.

Background and imagery

Each card is a miniature painting in warm, Eastern tones, full of details that refer to fairy tales, markets, palaces, starry skies, carpets, dancers, animals and dreams. The images open, as it were, a symbolic doorway to an inner space full of possibilities. Pouliot's art evokes both silence and movement and is the ideal visual stimulus to allow stories to emerge from intuition and feeling.

how the deck comes to life in readings

1001 is often used in story workshops, creative therapy, coaching, education and language lessons. The cards can be drawn at random and serve as a starting point for telling, writing or portraying stories. This deck is a rich source of inspiration, both individually and in groups. There are no hard and fast rules – each story can emerge as it comes. With each shuffle a new tapestry of possibilities opens up.

Is this deck welcoming to those just starting out?

Absolutely. It is precisely because of their open character and visual appeal that the cards feel accessible. Beginners experience the set as liberating and surprising: you don't have to be able to do anything – you just have to look, feel and tell what comes to mind.
