„Childfree“ tarot decks

[jupiter]

I‘ve done a search without any results, so I hope it’s ok to open a new thread for this.

 

Do you know of any decks with humans, but without pregnant bellies and babies? So basically a „childfree„ deck where the concept of fertility is interpreted differently.

TIA!

Oh, what a great question!  I'm not a collector, so I am not familiar with many decks and can't help you, but just wanted to pop in and say I love the idea of a childfree deck!  I bet some of the more adult-themed decks that focus on sex or sexuality don't depict kids (at least, I hope not!) but that's probably not what you want.  If there aren't any childfree, pregnant-free decks, I'd want to make one!

I'd probably start by looking at plant-themed decks. That's fertility, too.
Maybe something like this? https://www.herbcrafterstarot.com/
It's  trade off, though. You do lose a lot of visual information. If you don't mind baby animals, it might be better to go with an animal themed deck.

The one that comes to mind is Roots of Asia, but it's out of print. In print, I think the Golden Thread Tarot is one? Someone who owns it could verify, but the Empress, 6 of Cups, 10 of Cups, and Sun are all child free.

 

I was going to say the Sasuraibito Tarot, but that might be a silhouette of a boy on The Sun. (It's hard to tell; many of the adults look youthful in that deck). Tabula Mundi Tarot comes close, but there's an Egyptian youth on the Ace of Disks who may look too young to qualify for you. (It actually just sold out in full size, but there's a mini.)

Akron and Adflatus Tarot, and similar abstract ones,don't have children, but they might not fit your definition of human.

Just remembered... the Numinous Tarot doesn't have kids or pregnancy either.

This is perfect thank you!

 

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.
I don't mind older children, just want to avoid the pregnancy/baby theme.

Oh good! 🙂 
Your question made me realize that finding a deck that doesn't include babies or pregnancy was more difficult than I expected... But you knew that already from your search. I hope you enjoy the Numinous.

Arthurian Tarot by Matthews. it does have children in a couple of cards (Taliesin and Sleeping Lord) but no babies and no pregnant ladies.

Tarot of the Sweet Twilight might fit the bill. I can’t think of any baby/pregnancy imagery in it. It does deviate a lot from RWS in imagery though if that would bother you. It’s slightly surreal, dream-like, Tim Burton-esque in feel but very good for intuitive readings.
