The Tempest Tarot invites you to weigh anchor and set sail on a spiritual journey across the mysterious seven seas. This original and magical tarot deck, designed by professional tarot reader Maisy Bristol, captures the raw power and enchanting beauty of the ocean. Published in collaboration with U.S. Games Systems, Inc., it offers a unique maritime perspective on traditional tarot wisdom, making it a perfect companion for those drawn to the tides of the subconscious and the call of adventure.
The essence of the Tempest Tarot is one of discovery and mystery. It moves away from traditional medieval imagery, replacing it with a cohesive, stylized world of pirates, sirens, and deep-sea wonders. The visual style is both playful and profound, utilizing a limited and sophisticated color palette that evokes the atmosphere of a moonlit coastline or a fog-covered harbor. With its matte finish and sturdy cardstock, the deck feels as substantial as a well-worn captain’s log, providing a tactile and immersive reading experience.
Guided by the rhythm of the waves, the Tempest Tarot blends the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith system with rich nautical symbolism. You will find telescopes representing clarity, ship wheels for navigation, and octopuses for complexity and intelligence. The deck explores themes of transition, exploration, and the deep emotional currents that mirror the ocean's depths. While it remains accessible to beginners, seasoned readers will appreciate the fresh insights and the way maritime archetypes breathe new life into classic card meanings.

This 78-card deck by Robert M. Place is built on Neoplatonic philosophy and ancient Western cosmology. The illustrations draw on the Pre-Raphaelite style of Edward Burne-Jones, with tall, melancholy figures in the spirit of Botticelli and Michelangelo. This second edition features gold-edged cards and comes in a cloth-covered box with a slipcase.
A deck that rewards readers who want to understand the philosophy behind the images.
Robert M. Place translates 17th-century alchemical engravings into a minimalist tarot in black, white, red, blue and yellow. Each of the 78 cards shows one essential symbol, without unnecessary detail. Gilded edges and a linen-covered box make this both a collector's object and a ritual tool.
Made for those who prefer to experience symbols rather than dissect them.
