African Tarot Deck

Immerse yourself in the vibrant imagery of the African Tarot, a deck that draws inspiration from the rich tapestry of the African experience, presented in a distinctive primitive art style. Marina Romito brings a fresh perspective by reinterpreting the traditional Rider-Waite images, infusing them with symbols inspired by the indigenous culture of South Africa. The result is an accessible and uplifting deck that resonates with universal childhood emotions, inviting you to explore your true inner nature.

The back design of the cards pays homage to the Shagaan culture, one of the indigenous ethnic groups in South Africa. Symbolizing the gradual emergence of justice, the tortoise motif encapsulates the essence of this culture. The African Tarot is not merely a deck; it's a journey that unfolds through the lens of indigenous symbolism.

Crafted with precision, the miniature size of the deck is perfect for small hands, offering a tactile and immersive experience. The accompanying 55-page booklet provides valuable insights into individual card meanings and explores card combinations, enhancing your understanding and connection with the deck.
