The Old Gods Tarot – Digital art meets mythical depth
About this deck
The Old Gods Tarot is a special tarot deck that interweaves ancient mythologies with modern digital art. Each image is carefully composed in Photoshop, resulting in a layered, clear and powerful look. The 80 cards bring to life divine figures from various cultures, creating a deep archetypal consciousness within the tarot process.
Background and imagery
This deck is steeped in mythology, numerology and sacred geometry. The Major Arcana contains 23 cards, including two versions of The Fool and the additional card "The Wild Gods". The Minor Arcana follows an innovative structure: number cards feature historical symbols, while the court cards represent multiple deities and reinterpret the traditional tarot hierarchy. The four suits – Blades, Sceptres, Orbs and Chalices – are color-coded to strengthen the intuitive connection to the deck.
