Product Descrpition: Spirit Keeper’s Tarot is a hand-illustrated 78-card tarot deck (with 2 additional versions of Key 0, for a total of 80 cards) inspired by late Renaissance woodcut prints, with symbology based predominantly on medieval European alchemy, Hermeticism, Zoroastrianism, astrology, the Kabbalah, Abrahamic angelology, Egyptian mythology, Sufism, and late Renaissance Christian mysticism.
CHANGES FROM THE FIRST PRINTING:
PLEASE NOTE: The illustrations on the cards will remain unchanged, but for minor barely-detectable color tone adjustments on some of the cards.
- Different card back design from the First Print Run
- Minor line edits to the Book of Maps and new book cover design to match the revised card back and box color palette
- Minor line edits to the little white booklet (LWB)
- What was the SKT study journal from the first printing is now a Book of Readings workbook that has been substantially revised from the first printing’s study journal
- Eight Immortal Orders. Each deck from the second print run will be randomly assigned to one of eight Orders: (1) Virtuosos, (2) Warriors, (3) Philosophers, (4) Spellcasters, (5) Shamans, (6) Healers, (7) Alchemists, and (8) Enchanters, corresponding with the eight trigrams.
- All deck orders are randomly assigned. Yet please rest assured that you will get the deck from an Order that will best support your highest good.
- The Order that a deck is assigned endows that deck with a specific portfolio of blessings and powers in addition to its general all-purpose abilities as the Spirit Keeper’s Tarot.
- The Order will also offer insights into your deck’s character profile and predominant traits.
- More information about the Order your deck has been sorted into will be provided on its accompanying Certificate of Authenticity
Product Specs:
The Cards: 80 cards in total. Dimension will be 70 mm x 120 mm, or industry standard for tarot card size. The cardstock is 350 gsm, matte finish, with gilding (gold edging).
The Little White Booklet: The cards come with a perfectbound little white booklet (LWB) in the box, approximately 80 pages. You can work with the cards as a form of bibliomancy by looking them up in the LWB and reading the corresponding entries as additional divinatory insights along with your own interpretation.
The Box: A two-piece keepsake box made of 1200 gsm cardstock.
Anointing Oil: The plastic shrinkwrap around the deck box will be anointed with a holy oil I craft myself made from oil infusions of Ceylon cinnamon bark, cassia cinnamon bark and tree leaves, myrrh, and lemongrass in a Greek olive carrier oil.
Certificate of Authenticity: Every deck comes with a certificate of authenticity that I’ll autograph and hand-sign with my original signature. The certificate will note the issue number of your deck out of the total print run number, so you’ll also know exactly how many decks were in this second printing.
The Book of Maps: You’ll only be getting the digital PDF of the guidebook from me, but it’s formatted to print (when you take it to a third-party printer service, such as Lulu.com) at Trade Paperback, or 6” x 9” and my recommendation is to have it printed as a perfectbound paperback. There’s approximately 700 pages to the Book of Maps.
The Study Journal: You’ll only be getting the digital PDF of the study journal from me, but it’s formatted to print at Trade Paperback, or 6” x 9” and my recommendation is to have it printed as a spiral-bound notebook. There’s approximately 300 pages to the study journal.
The Eight Orders
New to the second print run of decks, each deck will be sorted into one of Eight Immortal Orders, which are as follows:
The Virtuosos, whose written stories and painted scenes become reality, endowed with the divine gift to Create, skilled in the many arts, one learned in the humanities, in culture, and who embodies the spirit of the Renaissance, stewards of a Golden Age,
The Warriors, archetype of the Hero, endowed with gifts of ingenuity, courage, and great strength to achieve the heights of victory that no one else could imagine, standing up for what is right and what is just, always the fighter,
The Philosophers, the scholars of reason and illuminated knowledge, who achieve mastery over numbers, forms, and cosmology, of rhetoric and sciencia, the ones who are the thought leaders of our times, keepers of the Classics,
(Sold out) The Spellcasters, road openers who clear obstacles and channel in new opportunities. A Spellcaster is the hand of the gods, and will come to realize extraordinary spiritual powers,
(Sold out) The Shamans, who traverse the axis mundi, through the many spirit worlds, whose minds are light as a feather upon a divine wind, who direct that wind to go where the shaman wills it to go, a shape-shifter of realities,
The Healers, who purify and consecrate, who rejuvenate, and who are apprentices of the cosmic physician, who will achieve mastery over the power to mend and the power to give new life, possessors of the gift of liberation from all that is malignant,
(Sold out) The Alchemists, who put spiritual teachings and esoteric theory into practice, who master the learned systems of magic and mysticism, and who come to know the secrets of nature and the physical universe, endowed with the power to transmute lead into gold,
The Enchanters, mediators of peace, equity, and love, who embody the archetype of the Weaver, who are our truth-tellers, and who nurture into reality abundance, contentment, and fulfillment; an Enchanter is one endowed with the great gift of Charisma and influence, friend to flora and fauna.
The Order will reveal the spiritual archetype that is the core essence of your deck, which will be noted on each deck’s Certificate of Authenticity.
