Synopsis

Step into a world where the mysterious and the surreal collide. Talented artist Patrick Valenza presents uniquely alternative interpretations of traditional tarot with symbolism inspired by childhood dreams. Stylized moon-faced characters created from manipulated photographs of 18th century tombstones are set against evocative backgrounds. Incorporated into the artwork are haunting surreal scenes of distant smokestacks, insane asylums and abandoned buildings. These captivating dreamscapes dare you to explore the depths and darker realms of the subconscious to uncover hidden truths and face innermost fears. This visually striking lunar deck is ideal for shadow work and dream journaling. Valenza's booklet gives interesting card descriptions and interpretations, both upright and reversed. The symmetric card backs, showing different phases of the moon, allow for reversed readings. Also included in the booklet is a unique ten-card spread called the Lunatic Spread, which mimics the shape of the full moon, and derives energy from its circular pattern.

The award-winning Deviant Moon Tarot has drawn something of a cult following and was voted as the Top Tarot Deck of All Time by Aeclectic Tarot readers.
