Design and Artwork

Lennox Rees has created a tarot deck where every card is its own visual adventure, rooted in nature and animal symbolism. The deck features stunning digital collages that integrate antique public domain paintings as backgrounds, with each background leading into the next card on your tarot journey. While closely aligned with traditional Rider-Waite-Smith symbolism, The Peculiar Pathways Tarot expands on that symbolism by introducing new, imaginative elements. The vibrant colors and meticulously crafted compositions bring a sense of wonder and exploration to each reading.

Symbolism and Themes

Inspired by the classic Rider-Waite-Smith deck, The Peculiar Pathways Tarot retains familiar symbolism while adding new layers of meaning through modern, creative interpretation. The cards are infused with nature and animal-based imagery, with no human figures except for occasional skeletons or statues, emphasizing a journey through the natural world and the mysteries it holds. The absence of human figures allows readers to focus on the universal themes of the tarot and explore the deeper symbolic connections presented through flora, fauna, and abstract worlds.
