Tarot of Trees

You know when you suddenly stumble upon something that makes your jaw drop? That’s just happened to me with the Tarot of Trees.
Its creator, Dana Driscoll, describes it as a “whimsical” deck…and it is. But it is so much more than that. It’s a wonderful idea, beautifully executed. (I am in love with the whole suit of Pentacles.) Most surprising and delightful about it is that the paintings make sense. Perhaps it is their whimsical simplicity that makes them so easy to read, like picture books.
I also love that each suit is linked to a season and that this is reflected very clearly in the images. Wands are summer, Swords are autumn, Pentacles are winter and presumably this means Cups are spring (she doesn’t say).
And the colours….oh the colours! Aren’t they divine?

Love that moon card the colours are just wonderful!
She’s finished the entire deck now, Archer. I wonder if she will get a publisher?

Hi Bea! Thanks for letting me know she’s finished the deck. It looks wonderful. I hope she does find a publisher for it…I’d definitely purchase the full deck. It’s got such a great personality. 🙂
Take note everyone – Dana Driscoll is publishing the Tarot of Trees this summer:

Ooh…thanks for the heads up. Love to you and all the Beas. 🙂
I purchased this deck from Dana and I love it. If you are psychic you will get all kinds of messages from them. They are wild.
