Oak Ash & Thorn Tarot Deck

Oak Ash & Thorn Tarot Deck (OAT) from Three Trees Tarot

is created by Stephanie Burrows and Illustrated by Adam Oehlers. This listing is for one copy of the full sized Oak Ash & Thorn Tarot Deck.

Oak Ash & Thorn Tarot Deck Details:

• DECK SIZE: Oak, Ash & Thorn (Vol. I.I) consists of 78 tarot cards (22 Majors and 56 Minors), a ‘Possibilities’ card and two double-sided reference sheets with keywords. Two blank cards protect the deck.

• CARD SIZE: The cards measure 70mm x 120mm (roughly 2.75 x 4.73 inches) with white borders and rounded corners.

• CARD BACKS: While the backs aren't reversible, it doesn't mean that you can't read using reversals. We encourage you to use this deck in whatever way suits you best.

• CARD STOCK: The cards are printed on eco-friendly, 400gsm, FSC accredited/carbon balanced paper and printed using veggie inks. The cards are protected by a matte, anti-scuff laminate. 

• BOX: The cards are housed in a light brown, 350gsm tuck flap box (with an easy-to-open lid and a glued base); beautifully embossed in black, veggie-based ink in a woodland design.

From Creator: "Since we wanted to keep Oak, Ash & Thorn as eco-friendly as possible, no physical guidebook accompanies this tarot deck, and there are no plans for one. Instead, we include two double-sided companion reference sheets featuring keywords that thoughtfully depict the nature of each card, allowing the deck to be read intuitively.

THE MAJOR ARCANA:

These cards showcase animals whose personality traits parallel the 22 individual universal archetypes represented in the Major Arcana of a classic Rider-Waite-Smith deck.

THE MINOR ARCANA:

The Minor Arcana cards are broken down by an animal representative of each element…

• The Cups (squirrels) represent feelings, emotions, and relationships. They resemble a heart-centred spirit.

• The Pentacles (hares) represent the material world. They resemble a grounded and bountiful spirit.

• The Swords (ravens) represent intellect, thoughts, and state of mind. They resemble a logical and intelligent spirit.

• The Wands (foxes) represent creativity, inspiration, and passion. They resemble a bold and adventurous spirit. "
