Tarot of the Lepidopteran People



The cards are slightly narrower than the average tarot card. The deck’s imagery results from the my long-time fascination with both zoological and mythological creatures. Lepidoptera refers to the traditional Linnaean classification under which butterflies, moths, and the little-known skippers fall. Hence what seem to be fairy folk in the cards are actually part-man, part-lepidopterans. The deck features an extra card – Lepidoptera.

Copies of the deck are still available for sale. You may send your inquiries to this e-mail address (link).
