About the deck
Each Major Arcana card in The Goddess Tarot tells the story of a different goddess, while each Minor Arcana suit is tied to one of the four elements and a corresponding goddess figure. If mythology-driven storytelling helps you connect with a deck, this one sits comfortably alongside other tarot and oracle decks in a divination collection. The full-color spread sheet included in the set gives you a ready-made layout to lean on until you're comfortable building your own spreads.
How to use it
Draw one or more cards for reflection, using the goddess associated with each card as a lens for its message. The included spread sheet offers a layout to build a reading around.
Care & cleansing
Keep the deck dry, out of direct sunlight, and store it with the book between uses to protect the ornate artwork.
