Enriched with Eastern philosophy and Chinese artistic traditions, this deck invites you to expand your spiritual awareness through observation and intuition. Experience the quiet beauty of "xian-dao-gui-sheng" (仙道贵生; the Taoist ideal cherishing life as the highest spiritual pursuit) and embark on a transformative journey of self-cultivation!
The artwork draws inspiration from "lianhuanhua" (连环画; a type of palm-size picture books popular in 20th-century China). Expect brushy lines, grainy colors, and lovingly hand-drawn clay dolls in vintage robes. Chinese folkloric motifs run throughout: lotus ponds, tiled rooftops, drifting mountain clouds... giving the deck a unique cultural warmth.
Each card is paired with a line of text drawn from Chinese classics, ancient poetry, Taoist hymns, and similar sources – like little “fortune slips,” revealed in a digital guidebook. Some lines briefly hint at the card's meaning; others echo the artwork; and some offer deeper philosophical insights. Together, they express the author’s personal understanding and emotional connection.
