This fall, Insight Editions will publish a tarot deck and guidebook that combines traditional tarot elements with the psychedelic counterculture style of the Grateful Dead. Grateful Dead Tarot: The Official Deck and Guidebook will be available on September 17th.
The extraordinary deck is based on the traditional 78 cards of the esoteric tarot. Each card has been rendered with distinctive characterizations that will resonate with Dead Heads worldwide. Fans can immerse themselves through the Dead-inspired artwork that adorns each card, capturing the very essence of their legendary music and culture. Grateful Dead Tarot will help you unravel mysteries of the universe through the lens of Grateful Dead culture and philosophy. It’s not just a deck; it’s a portal into a world where magic, music, and spirituality converge.
Elizabeth Jezorski is the author of the guidebook and is deeply involved in the ancient arts of astrology, ceremony, and spiritual transformation.
Erin Cadigan is the illustrator of the cards and a lifelong Dead Head and occultist. She works across multiple design fields including branding, illustration, and textile design.
