Tarot de los Angeles - a deck entirely devoted to the angelic realm
Not every tarot deck follows the structure you know. This one is built entirely around angels, archangels and celestial guides. The 78 cards form their own system that leaves classical tarot behind to make room for angelic hierarchies and spiritual messages.
Rosa Elena Ortega wrote the texts, Luis Royo created the illustrations. The deck is published by Lo Scarabeo and includes a multilingual guidebook in English, Spanish, French, German and Italian.
What you see on the cards
The imagery is ethereal. Soft lines, dreamlike compositions, plenty of light colours. Royo draws in a magical realist style that blurs the line between earthly and celestial.
The cards are laminated and made from sturdy cardstock. The size is 66 x 120 mm, standard tarot dimensions. They shuffle smoothly.
How this deck differs from classical tarot
The structure deviates. Where a traditional tarot deck revolves around archetypes, elements and life stages, this deck revolves around angelic energy. The symbolism is built around divine protection, spiritual communication and celestial guidance.
The guidebook explains how to interpret the cards within this system. It includes methods for daily draws and questions around personal growth and emotional healing.
Draw a card each morning and ask which celestial energy may support you that day. Simple, but effective for those who value this type of ritual.
Who this works for
This deck is designed for those drawn to angelic energy and spiritual guidance. The soft imagery and intuitive setup make it accessible for beginners, provided you do not expect a traditional tarot structure.
It works less well for business or material questions. The focus lies on inner peace, spiritual insight and emotional themes.
