The Jungian Tarot – Archetypes, imagination and inner wisdom
About this deck
The Jungian Tarot, developed by Dr. Robert Wang, is a profound tarot deck based on the psychology of Carl Gustav Jung. With 78 cards designed as a tool for active imagination, this deck offers a unique approach to introspection and spiritual growth. The cards are intended to bring the reader into contact with archetypes from the collective unconscious and form a bridge between esoteric knowledge and modern depth psychology.
Background and imagery
The 22 Major Arcana cards represent Jungian archetypes such as the Shadow, the Self, the Persona and the Anima/Animus. The images contain symbols such as mandalas, arcs and spirals that invite meditation and self-reflection. The Court cards deviate from the classic name and are linked to family roles – father, mother, son and daughter – with which Wang adds a psychological depth to the traditional tarot structure.
how the deck comes to life in readings
The deck is ideally suited for those who want to use tarot as a tool for inner growth and inner exploration. The accompanying booklet contains concise interpretations, but the deck comes into its own when combined with Robert Wang's Jungian Tarot Trilogy, in which he explains the psychological layers of each card in detail. Many readers experience the deck as a powerful tool in the process of self-discovery, therapy or meditation.
Is this deck welcoming to those just starting out?For those who have an affinity with psychology, this deck offers a surprisingly accessible entry point. Despite the depth, the symbols are clear and focused on inner work, so beginners experience the deck as an inspiring learning path.
