Design and Artwork
The New Era Elements Tarot by Eleonore F. Pieper, Ph.D., features 80 cards and a 116-page guidebook. Pieper’s artwork, in sepia tones, replaces traditional esoteric symbols with modern, relatable imagery that reflects 21st-century global life. Each suit corresponds to one of the four elements (Fire, Water, Air, Earth), and the court cards represent distinct world cultures.
Symbolism and Themes
This deck combines elements of the Rider-Waite and Crowley-Harris traditions with a modern twist. Traditional suits are replaced with the four elements, and court cards are renamed to Daughter, Son, Mother, and Father, each representing different cultures. The cards are designed to provoke thought and evoke emotional responses, making them ideal for both intuitive readings and deep personal reflections.
User Experience
New Era Elements Tarot is user-friendly and accessible, appealing to people from various backgrounds. The 116-page guidebook provides comprehensive explanations, including a unique six-card spread. The smaller card size (76 x 127 mm) makes them easy to handle, and the satin finish ensures smooth shuffling. This deck is perfect for those seeking a straightforward, in-your-face reading experience.
