Tarot of the Abyss Deck (80 cards and guide book)

Product Description
$59.90
Maximum quantity available reached.

ANN TOURIAN:

Tarot experiences, like any other, begin as shapeless and void as the abyss. As we evolve and develop our relationship with the cards, we move from dark chaos to an ordered, illuminated cosmos.

In both the Major and Minor Arcana, Ana Tourian has created a beautifully nuanced tarot deck designed to mirror the journey of the soul through the universe.

Includes 80-card deck with two alternate cards, and 148-page guidebook.

 

STAFF PICK:  "This week I’m excited to tell you about a deck that would be one of my top picks in store, THE TAROT OF THE ABYSS by Ana Tourian.

The deck was first released in May of 2021, and Inspire Me had it pre-ordered. Because of the state of the world's shipping, and the demand for the deck, we didn’t see it until March 2022, and that first shipment flew off the shelves so fast that I didn’t even get to see it! It was a torturous 4.5months before we were able to get the next shipment. Thankfully the availability is flowing now and we’re seeing it come through more regularly now (but it can be variable).

This is a modern-traditional deck with 78 cards that follow the traditional Rider Waite meanings, although Ana provides her own interpretation in the accompanying guidebook too. You will actually find 80 cards in the deck as she has provided two illustrations for the 3 of swords and the 10 of swords so that readers may select the illustration/interpretation that speaks to them best.

This is Ana’s fifth divination deck, and third tarot. Her first tarot, 'Hidden Waters Tarot', was released as an indi deck, and was ordered one at a time straight from the printer. Her second 'Bonestone and Earthflesh Tarot' created in conjunction with Avalon Cameron, was Kickstarted and was a massive success, gaining a substantial following and quickly becoming a sought-after collector’s item. When the publisher, US Games, signed the 'Tarot of the Abyss', taking it straight to mass-market, that was validation for me that this deck was likely to live up to expectation and follow in the footsteps of her previous work. I knew I was going to love it, and I do!

This deck does not disappoint! Ana’s artwork doesn’t shy away from the hard topics, and whilst it isn’t dark or frightening, the imagery has a way of reaching into your soul. The term hauntingly beautiful comes to mind, and I find her deck a fabulous intuitive read. She does a marvellous job of capturing the essence of each card in her detailed monochrome linework.

I find Ana’s written interpretations of the cards valuable and insightful, they are an easy read, short yet full of substance, and they lack the cryptic nature of some tarot guidebooks. Within each meaning is always a point of focus or a piece of advice so the reader is never left guessing about “where to next?”

This deck offers everything I personally look for in a tarot; beauty, depth, inspiration, insight, it delivers a new take on the traditional cards, a fresh perspective, the ability to be hard-hitting, the ability a deliver a gentle message, a hint of shadow accompanied by plenty of joy, the kiss of a female creator, and relatability. The Abyss has quickly become a trusted friend for me."
