For this deck I have drawn the 78 cards that make up the Tarot universe trying to reflect a more rebellious and nihilistic universe, specifically that of the punk rock scene. To do this I have transformed the different archetypes that make up the Major and minor Arcana in anarchic characters with colourful crests and flashy clothes, in a carefree but non-conforming attitude, sometimes even violent, which characterized this youth movement. To create the minor arcana I have been inspired by the different scenes beautifully illustrated by Pamela Colman for the very popular Rider-White tarot and I have turned them into nice punk scenes full of symbolism and references to this musical movement. Taking into account that the punk motto was: There is no Future, this tarot can hardly be considered predictive. Moreover, considering another motto which said: Die young and leave a beautiful corpse, it cannot be considered a therapeutic tarot either. Otherwise, and if there is an uninhibited complicity between the tarot reader and the seeker, this is a fully functional tarot and I would say that it is much more fun than the conventional ones. https://youtu.be/2npmexiMkUE?si=XavJqbLWYJhUN3Bx

This deck of 78 cards intends to portray the universe of the traveling circus and the freak show to the mystical universe of the tarot. I take a variety of major and minor arcana and turn them into the main characters of the greatest show on earth. https://www.etsy.com/es/listing/1232610080/freak-show-circus-tarot In my tarot deck, the high priestess is a powerful and attractive bearded woman; the pope is a strong giant weight lifter; the jack of pentacles is a friendly seal playing with a golden ball; the hanged man is an escapist chained up and cornered by sharks; the hermit is a tamer who jealously guards an old Russian bear in its cage; the king of gold is an elephant man who horrifies everyone; the magician never ceases to be an enigmatic conjurer... and so on and so forth, until the tarot arcana become members of a mysterious and unique traveling circus where, under its protective tent, fate brings together a collection of curious characters and makes them a big

He realizado un tarot temático de 30 cartas inspirado en el universo de los superhéroesclásicos de Marvel y también de DC comics. He convertido un valiente grupo de superhéroes (y algún supervillano también) en los conocidos 22 Arcanos Mayores del tarot, a los que he añadido otros 6 Arcanos Mayores de mi propia invención para la ocasión. La baraja termina con una carta en la que se incluye el listado completo de Arcanos en inglés y una carta final con la ilustración de la caja, una parodia de la portada del popular cómic The Secret Wars. Pues no hay que olvidar que este tarot no es mas que una parodia. Un chiste, pero además un ejercicio gráfico que guarda un evidente e intencionado parecido con los personajes del maravilloso universo de Tim Burton. Un juego de cartas que tan solo pretende sacar una sonrisa a todos aquellos coleccionistas de comics o de tarots que gusten de coleccionar este tipo de artículos originales.
