A Review by Karma Star Tarot

CooptyLew was brilliant with the pieces she picked for card representation. The 3 of Brushes (Wands) is a person pulling back the grey paint that’s covered graffiti. It’s revealing the compilation of graffiti artists that has built and built, and that no matter how much it gets covered over, there will always be that foundation.

via Deck Review: Tarot Banksy — Karma Star Tarot

Thank you to Karma Star Tarot for a heartfelt and honest review of the Tarot Banksy!

fullsizeoutput_6ef3Nicola is funny! If she thinks the deck is punchy, she should try sleeping with it! Before I released it, I did a month-long study of the deck, where I slept with it every night, and what weird dreams I had! There were also multiple questions I asked and pulled cards for the answers… It was interesting to say the least!

Here is a PDF of the guidebook that you can download and do with as you please…

I swear to God I was channeling Banksy during the time when I was writing the guidebook! I recorded all of my card pulls and kept track of every single interpretation from then, and I’m planning on publishing a coloring book with black and white punch-out tarot cards. It will also be a full guidebook, complete with card images, quotes, keywords, full interpretations, and a couple thought-provoking, socially-charged questions for each card. I have it written already, but when the printer told me that the guidebooks would cost more than the cards, I quickly revised.

Here is my guidebook journey…

… And proof that the blurb for the Buckets was there when I sent the file to the printer.

I’ve got no clue as to what happened to it after the file was sent! 😳 I had so many problems with the graphic design for the deck because I did not know Photoshop! The printer probably had to tweak something because I had my sizes all off and a quickly approaching Kickstarter deadline. (However, for having no background knowledge in Photoshop and no help, I think it turned out pretty damn good. My next deck should be all kinds of FAB!)

I strongly believe in the power of art and the Tarot for emotional healing and wellness, and it is my ultimate passion, as an artist, to teach others how to use these resources in this way. I create to connect. I connect to myself through artistic expression and I connect to others through hearing their stories and sharing my vision. Art has been my healing modality, and also the thing that brings me closer to the essence of who I am. I also love card decks, both tarot and oracle, and I have a huge collection! They speak seductively to the artist in me, and I'm fascinated by the intersection of art, spirituality, and psychology that exists within them.
