TAROT DECKS MADE BY FILIPINOS

Support Local Indie Deck Creators

I am so proud that we are finally at a spiritual stage where sacred creators are growing.

Here are some Filipino Made Decks you should check out:

1. MIDNIGHT MADNESS TAROT by Eisel Winters

Illustrated and created on sleepless nights by me. I fashioned the Midnight Madness Tarot very much from the Rider-Waite Smith system to be used by anyone who has a love for soul work and shadow work. It is a very intuitive and forthright deck and it is my hope that each card become your go-to guides that will deepen your understanding and strengthen your connection with your inner self. Follow my deck in progress here.

2. KAPWA TAROT by Jana Lynne Umipig-Lawag Nakem I saw this deck a few years ago on Instagram and was wowed by the artwork. Such a grounding deck that connects and reminds you of your Filipino roots. You can get a copy here.

3. CARTAS PHILIPPINENSIS by Saul Hofileña Jr., painted by Guy Custodio

22 cards of the Major Arcana (Secrets), each interpreting archetypes in Philippine colonial history. It is like a walk in the National Museum where massive paintings are up on the wall only this time it's mini sized. Read review here. I've been asked a lot about how and where to purchase this deck but alas, this deck's quite an elusive one. Last I heard, this deck was available at FullyBooked.

10. EARTH TAROT by Earth Anlacan

"This deck has no motif, no concept to hold them all together. The only thing that binds each card is my perspective and art style. The odd numbers are interpreted as non-human designs; the even numbers are human; the court cards are human as well. Well I can really say that these cards reflect one avenue of my weird mind" - @convearth. You can purchase the deck here.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

Woot! Woot! My happiness soars as I see more and more Filipinos join the #tarotcommunity. Remember that Tarot is NOT devil-woship. It is a transformative tool that gives you an opportunity to reflect, ground and raise your vibration to became a more authentic you.
