A meditative 78-card deck created using cyanotype printmaking techniques with hand-collaged imagery.
Blue Earth Tarot welcomes you into a dreamy and contemplative world. This 78 card fine art tarot deck is made from a photographic printing process called cyanotype and takes inspiration from the natural world. Blue Earth Tarot follows the tarot system found in the Rider Waite Smith Deck. The deck's suits are named in a traditional manner, but their symbols have been adapted: water droplets (cups), clouds (swords), sticks (wands), hands (pentacles). The Major Arcana mixes nature based imagery with inclusive human forms.
