Tarot of the Abyss – A journey from shadow to insight
About this deck
Tarot of the Abyss by Ana Tourian is a profound tarot deck that depicts the path of the soul moving from chaos to cosmos. With 80 cards – including two alternative cards – this deck offers space for reflection, emotion and spiritual growth. Each image is a story, a whisper from the deep, designed in a powerful black and white style.
Background and imagery
The cards are hand-illustrated in an expressive charcoal and ink style. This choice emphasizes the raw emotion and archetypal power of each card. The symbolism is rich and intuitive, and ties in with the classic Rider-Waite tradition with unique interpretations – especially with the 3 and 10 of Swords, which are also approached from numerology. The journey that the deck depicts is not only spiritual, but also personal: from loss to enlightenment, from despair to insight.
how the deck comes to life in readings
Tarot readers experience this deck as intense and empathetic. The cards fit comfortably in the hand and can be shuffled smoothly thanks to the high-quality cardboard. The 148-page guide offers deep insights per card, which strengthens the connection between reader and image. Each suit (Chalices, Swords, Wands, Pentacles) tells its own story, making the reading feel like a movie – evocative and compelling.
