Step into a world where every card is a doorway to a legend. The Storyteller's Tarot, created by the visionary David DePasquale, is a vibrant and enchanting deck that interweaves the traditional structure of the tarot with the rich, diverse tapestry of global myths and folktales. This deck is a celebration of the stories that define us, brought to life through a cinematic, animation-inspired lens that feels both nostalgic and modern.
The visual "vibe" of this deck is one of boundless energy and movement. With a palette that pops and characters that seem ready to leap off the card, it transforms a standard reading into an immersive experience. It reminds us that our lives are a collection of chapters, and we are the authors of our own destiny.
At its core, The Storyteller's Tarot explores the universal themes that have connected humanity across cultures and centuries. While it respects the foundations of traditional tarot, it expands the archetypes by casting deities, mystical animals, and legendary figures from around the world in its roles. Each suit and Major Arcana card becomes a narrative beat, connecting personal growth with collective human wisdom.
The symbolism is deeply rooted in communication and connection. By looking at the tarot through the perspective of folklore, the deck highlights how shared stories help us navigate the complexities of the human condition—love, loss, triumph, and transformation. It is a visually immersive system that makes complex spiritual concepts accessible through the familiar power of "Once upon a time."

Since 2015, he has lent his creative talents to world-renowned studios including Disney Television Animation, Netflix Animation, DreamWorks TV, and Warner Bros.

The Storyteller’s Tarot is designed to be inclusive, making it a perfect choice for both those just starting their journey and seasoned readers looking for fresh inspiration. The accompanying guidebook does more than explain card meanings; it reveals the specific myths and tales associated with each card, offering a layer of depth that enriches every spread. This makes the deck an excellent tool for shadow work, creative writing, or daily guidance.
"To get the most out of this deck, try 'narrative shuffling.' As you draw your cards, imagine you are reading the storyboard of your current situation. Ask the cards: 'Which myth am I currently living, and how does the story end?'"
Is this deck based on the Rider-Waite-Smith system?
Yes, while the imagery is unique and inspired by global myths, the underlying structure follows the traditional tarot system, making it easy for those familiar with RWS to transition to these cards.
Does the guidebook explain the specific stories shown on the cards?
Absolutely. The guidebook provides the background for the characters and folktales depicted, allowing you to connect the ancient wisdom of those stories to your modern-day questions.
Is the art style suitable for younger readers?
Because of David DePasquale’s animation background, the art is very approachable, colorful, and expressive, making it a wonderful deck for teenagers or adults who appreciate contemporary character design.
