Garden of Insight: The Good Hunters Tarot

The Garden of Insight: The Good Hunter's Tarot is a Bloodborne inspired tarot deck that has been carefully crafted to tie the world of Blood

Hunters, the Hunt has begun! The Paleblood Moon has risen!

The gates to the Garden of Insight have opened!

At long last, partake in @revivaldivinations' incredible creation: Garden of Insight: A Good Hunter's Tarot is finally live and ready for you to support!

This gorgeous project features a fully customised Bloodborne-themed Tarot deck, custom art prints, post cards, vinyl stickers, a mug, limited edition linocuts, and a fully customised guide book!

I have the great honour of being this project's Tarot consultant.

I have over a decade worth of Tarot reading experience, own a number of custom decks myself and regularly do readings for friends and family.

I have personally assigned each card to a character with attention to both the character or object within the lore of Bloodborne as well as Tarot meaning and symbolism on a deep level. I have used my experience I've gained over the years as a practicioner, but also the knowledge I've gained from books, from teachings of other Tarot readers, and from fruitful and rich discussions with other practicioners both offline and online, in addition to my deep love of the world of Bloodborne and the input from our amazing and dedicated artist team, to ensure a complex and unique deck.

This dedication led not only to a visual attunement to the lore of Bloodborne, but a lyrical one as well: The Major Arcana have been extensively renamed, and the Suits and Court Cards have been renamed. The Court Cards, for example, are no longer Pages, Knights, Queens and Kings - our Court Cards are Hunters setting out for the night, Seekers searching for insight, Saints in tune with their intuition, and Scholars full of ken.

The booklet contains all this, and more:

an intro into the deck itself, and Tarot conceptually

a guide onrenames

an intro to Tarot reading

5 fully custom Tarot spreads, including Pursuit, a spread based on the Hunter's Mark fully developed by me, with rigorous testing from both @dovenart and associates, and myself

fully original card texts for upright and reversed meanings as well as texts for all suits!

a complete bibliography of the sources used in the creation of this deck and booklet

For my fellow Tarot readers: the result is a deck with a truly unique feel and energy to it. It feels connected to the vastness of the cosmos, the brightness of distant stars, the deep dark of the ocean, the luminousity of its unseen creatures. It is a deeply personal, deeply conversational deck. I can tell that reading with this deck will be without compare. Even if you are not familiar with Bloodborne, the lavish artworks and luxurious quality of this set is absolutely amazing!

For my fellow Bloodborne fans: Even if you have never done a Tarot reading, and never want to do one, I still encourage you to treat yourself to the deck and the booklet - each of the 78 cards is a piece of Bloodborne in and of itself, from micro-fiction, to character voice, to a micro-essay. Dive back into the world of Bloodborne and immerse yourself both in its splendour and its horror.

To my fellow Bloodborne fans who also do Tarot readings: What are you waiting for!? This was made for you!! The Dream is calling for you, Hunter!!

Stay tuned to hear more about renames, card spreads, and card text previews over the next week!

May you find your worth in the joy of creation, Hunters!

Retrieval represents the determination to seek a goal, to pursue it relentlessly. And who knows that drive better than Alfred, Hunter of Vilebloods?

The stars, the void, the planets- secrets are held within the constellations. Who better to teach you than Ebrietas, the daughter of the Cosmos?
