Some decks whisper. This one shouts. Star Power Tarot by Charlie Quintero takes the traditional Rider-Waite structure and turns it into an explosion of neon green and retro yellow, with characters who look like they belong in this century instead of centuries past.
The classic symbols are present, the sequence is familiar, but the design is anything but. Each character has their own identity, and the composition forces you to search for what matters. That is intentional.
The colours are bright and glossy. Neon green dominates, supported by yellow, pink and blue. The characters are diverse in skin tone, body type and presentation. No medieval knights or queens on thrones, but people you could encounter in a contemporary setting.
The symbolism stays true to Rider-Waite, but is placed differently in the image. Sometimes you have to look for the sword or the cup. That requires active attention, and it helps develop your own interpretive ability.
The cards are printed on sturdy 330gsm cardstock with a glossy finish. The silver edges give the deck a polished look. The format is standard: 70 x 120 mm. They shuffle smoothly.
The facial expressions and body language of the characters tell a lot. Look there first before moving to the symbols. That often gives direction to the meaning.
This deck works well for those familiar with the Rider-Waite structure who need a visual refresh. The modern imagery also makes it easier to discuss contemporary questions about identity, self-expression and diversity.
When drawing a card, focus first on the facial expression and posture of the character. In this deck, body language often tells half the story.
Charlie Quintero is an artist who combines traditional tarot symbolism with contemporary imagery. The Star Power Tarot is inspired by an 'art witch' who had a positive influence on his life. That influence shows in the progressive and rebellious energy of the deck.
How does this deck differ from the traditional Rider-Waite?
The structure and symbolism are the same, but the imagery is entirely contemporary. Instead of medieval scenes you see modern characters in a 90s-inspired style with bright colours. The themes remain recognisable, but the presentation is different.
Is the glossy finish pleasant to use?
That depends on your preference. The cards shuffle smoothly and feel sturdy. The gloss gives the colours extra power, but can also reflect under bright light. For those who prefer matte cards, this is less suitable.
