African Tarot Deck

About the African Deck

The African Tarot is a deck of hope an understanding. For thousands of years, we have been active participants in the world. We have shared a consciousness wherein all relationships were meaningful, independent, and interrelated. We felt sense of belonging which nurtured every dimension of our existence; physical, mental, and spiritual.

Science and technology and their insistence on objective rationality has caused our world to become increasingly unreal. We may no longer feel a sense of belonging, a sense of oneness with the world. We may sense progressive psychic, physical, and spiritual dismemberment in modern societies. Perhaps you no longer feel capable of effecting meaningful change in your life and in the world.

Our journey is a search for new meaning that begins from within. It is only the true, untainted self which has access to the subconscious, higher knowledge that pervades all forms of life and is contained in all phenomena This ultimate knowledge gives us the power to change and heal. It also raises the collective consciousness of the world and all within it.

These cards guide us back into ourselves. They lead us through significant past, present, and future influences a provide us with a new awareness that enables us to overcome obstacles on our path to self-fulfillment. It is both pertinent and appropriate that this Tarot pack hails from South Africa, a country only recently freed from the clutches of hopeless despair and destruction, and in search of a new identity and understanding.
