Bring back the Playful Heart Tarot

[Nemia]

The Playful Heart Tarot is one of the decks I would have loved to have! I keep going back to KittenChops' website to look at it and sigh. Today, I saw that the artist is considering bringing back this deck. She asks people who would be interested in buying it to give her feedback, subscribe to her newsletter and give her an idea of how many decks to print. I did so immediately, and if you are interested, maybe you wish to do the same? It's a unique deck, done in watercolours, and it's wonderful to see a deck without AI. 

 

 

Her Marseilles-based Pipspeak Tarot looks wonderful as well. 

 

Her style reminds me of the children's book illustrations of my childhood, like the Happy Lion. 

 

 

More associations and memories from my German childhood come up: the Onkel Tobi books my brother used to love, 

 

     

 

the lovely, wistful Schornebog's Forest. Memories... 

 

I'm sure you'll have your own associations. This seems to be a great deck to work with your inner child, but it also looks layered, complex and with lots of emotional depth behind the whimsical scenes and smiling faces. It is also a Real Tarot, as far as I can judge from the images: it looks readable, and the cards are true to the tarot archetypes. 

 

There are so many cutesy "artificial" decks floating around right now, so much AI, and so many "copies of copies". I hope KittenChops will get the support she needs, re-print her deck, and even if the shipping kills me, I'll buy it.
