Design and Artwork
The Modern Witch Tarot Deck by Lisa Sterle is a visually stunning and culturally relevant interpretation of the classic Rider-Waite deck. The cards feature contemporary landscapes, fashion, and technology, with vibrant and clear graphics that bring each tarot archetype into the 21st century. The deck celebrates diversity, featuring empowered human beings from various identities, including LGBTQ, different body types, senior citizens, and people of color. The intricate pale blue mosaic design on the card backs adds a classic touch to this modern deck.
Symbolism and Themes
Lisa Sterle’s Modern Witch Tarot encapsulates the strength and power of modern witchcraft, where magic is self-made. Each card is a representation of diverse bodies and up-to-the-minute fashion, woven into traditional tarot symbols. The deck, though predominantly featuring female figures, aims to embody a broad spectrum of human experience, reflecting real people in all their diversity. The inclusion of a card titled “EVERYTHING IS FINE,” originally a popular internet meme, adds a unique and relatable element to the deck.
User Experience
The deck’s physical quality is impressive, with thick, glossy cards that feel solid to handle. Although the card backs are not symmetrical, this aspect does not detract from the deck’s usability for readings. The accompanying small hardback guidebook is concise yet comprehensive, enhancing the user’s understanding of each card. This deck is celebrated for its inclusivity and its ability to resonate with a wide range of tarot readers, regardless of their background or experience.

Beautiful tarot deck!
Als je op zoek bent naar diversiteit in een tarotdeck, zoek dan niet verder. Je zal waarschijnlijk jezelf terug vinden in dit deck, want alle soorten huidskleuren, haartypes, kledingstijlen en energieën zijn aanwezig. Hoewel dit deck enkel vrouwen bevat, heeft dat ook zijn kracht. Je hebt nog steeds Knight en King kaarten en sommige vrouwen zijn erg masculine. Dit deck is sterk gebaseerd op het originele Rider Waite spel, waardoor kenners zich snel vertrouwd voelen met de art. De verpakking is stevig, de kaarten zijn glossy maar dik, en het bijbehorende boekje is informatief en hartstikke leuk geschreven. Zeker het geld waard.
Het Kaartendeck waar Tarot, heksen en vrouwen elkaar ontmoeten. De kaarten zijn speels en het kleurgebruik maakt het deck modern. Je herkent de klassieke RWT goed in de kaarten daarom is dit deck ook geschikt voor beginnende tarotisten.
