About this Deck
The visual style of Tarot de Luz is unmistakably unique. Aitor Saraiba combines a hand-drawn, almost childlike innocence with a sophisticated understanding of human emotion. The deck is bathed in light, using a palette that feels both grounded and ethereal. It is a deck that doesn't just "tell" your future; it "feels" your present, making it an excellent companion for those who prioritize intuition over rigid memorization.
Whether you are drawn to its abstract shapes or the way it reinterprets classic archetypes, this deck offers a "vibe" that is healing and uplifting. It is particularly well-suited for those who find traditional decks too heavy or intimidating, providing a gentle yet honest entryway into the world of tarot.
Symbolism and Themes
At its core, this deck focuses on the power of reconciliation, memory, and emotional restoration. Saraiba utilizes abstract forms and a vivid color language to reinterpret the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith system. Instead of literal or historical depictions, the cards lean into a poetic style where color and form spark immediate subconscious hits.
Themes of self-care and internal dialogue are woven through every card. From the Major Arcana’s spiritual milestones to the Minor Arcana’s everyday experiences, the deck emphasizes that light is a tool for discovery. It encourages the reader to look beyond the surface of their problems to find the hidden beauty and lessons within.
