Design and Artwork

The Northern Animal Tarot Deck, created by Linda Ritter, stands out with its unique interpretation of the classic Rider-Waite Smith tarot archetypes. It presents a captivating 100-card deck, featuring anthropomorphic animals that bring each card to life. These animals range from majestic wolves and deer to mystical ravens and foxes, all depicted with human-like expressions and attire. The realistic yet enchanting art style imbues each card with a sense of magic and wonder, ideal for storytelling and divination.
