Motherpeace Tarot Deck

Design and Artwork

The Motherpeace Tarot Deck, created by Karen Vogel and Vicki Noble, is renowned for its celebration of the divine feminine. The deck features round cards with primitive, yet poignant artwork, depicting a diverse range of women and goddesses. Each suit in the deck is associated with a different goddess, adding a unique dimension to the traditional tarot structure. The illustrations are vibrant and inclusive, reflecting themes of feminine power and diversity.

Symbolism and Themes

This deck reinterprets traditional tarot through a feminist lens, focusing on reclaiming feminine power. The four suits – Wands (Brigid), Cups (Aphrodite), Swords (Athena), and Pentacles (Demeter) – are each represented by goddesses, reinforcing the theme of the divine feminine. The deck also makes minor changes to the naming and ordering of the cards, replacing traditional titles with ones that better align with its theme.

User Experience

The round shape of the cards and the unique artwork make for an engaging and intuitive reading experience. Users find the deck to be empowering, particularly appreciating its representation of women of all ages and backgrounds. While the accompanying booklet provides a basic understanding, additional guidebooks are available for those seeking deeper insights into the deck’s history, themes, and uses.
