Background and imagery
The cards are richly illustrated with intense colors and layered symbolism. Each image is painted in Haindl's characteristic expressive style, in which emotion, mysticism and spirituality come together. The Major Arcana contains kabbalistic, astrological and runic signs, which provide depth for spiritual research. The court cards focus on gods and goddesses. The four suits are linked to world cultures: Wands – Hinduism, Cups – Celtic & Norse, Swords – Ancient Egyptian, and Stones – Native American tradition.
How the deck comes to life in readings

The symbolism invites deepening and meditative reflection. The deck is often used for introspection, spiritual growth and ritual work. For those who open themselves up to the wealth of layers and cultures, this deck offers deep insights.
