Touchstone Tarot – Classical art meets intuitive tarot
About this deck
Touchstone Tarot by Kat Black is a luxurious tarot deck that brings ancient masterpieces from the Baroque period to life in a digital collage form. With 80 cards, including the optional “Happy Squirrel” card, this deck is both a work of art and a powerful tool for insight and self-reflection. The combination of classic portraits and subtle expressions creates a deep, intuitive connection between reader and card.
Symbolism and themes
The cards follow the classic structure of the Rider-Waite-Smith system and are therefore recognizable for both novice and experienced tarot readers. Kat Black has carefully brought together elements from Baroque paintings to enrich the symbolism of the tarot. Each card reflects themes such as emotion, human behavior, growth and spiritual development, with a timeless appearance that invites the reader to explore depth.
how the deck comes to life in readings
The cards are supplied in a sturdy storage box with gold on the edges for a luxurious finish. The quality of the card material and the clear, included booklet make the deck suitable for daily use. Some readers indicate that the larger size takes some getting used to when shaking, but that it really brings out the beauty of the images. The 108-page booklet offers clear explanations, spreads and background information about the artworks used.
Is this deck welcoming to those just starting out?Yes. Thanks to the familiar Rider-Waite format and the clear accompanying book, this deck is also easily accessible for people just starting out with tarot. The artistic images also help to stimulate intuition and develop your own feeling about the cards.
