About the Museum

Let the Museum introduce itself


About Museum of Tarot

Museum of Tarot (or Bảo Tàng Tarot in Vietnamese), founded in 2016 (will officially open in 2017), is located in Can Tho City, in the south of Vietnam. The museum has three themes: Lithotherapy, Cartomancy and Demonology.

It is combined from six main collections related to Tarology:

Fortune Telling Cards (Tarot and Oracles decks), Historical Books and Documents on Cartomancy, Art of Cardmaking and Decoration of Fortune Telling Cards; Amulets and Talismans and Magical Tools; Lithotherapy Crystals and Charmestones; Demonological and Sacred Books and Haunted Objects.

The museum is established in an ancient noble hotel, called “the citron house”, under the Vietnamese renaissance style. This house is sacrificed for the museum by an old couple of lawyer, Anh Ngo and Duong Ho in 2015.

Exploring the Enigma: A Vibrant Tarot Deck Odyssey

The Lovers


AAA148

The Tarot deck by Karyn Easton, specifically designed for couples, is recognized as a source of inspiration for love and connection. Simplified in the traditional Marseilles style, this deck stands out with its delicate, romantic motifs, from the mythological butterfly on the Papess card to the zodiac signs encircling The Wheel of Fortune, and the vibrant rainbow streams on Temperance and The Star. Notably, the image of The Devil playing the violin adds a unique touch to the entire deck. Housed in a convenient magnetic-lid box, the deck also comes with a comprehensive guidebook highly regarded for its depth and breadth of content, from decoding the meaning of each card to its connections with numerology and astrology. The Lovers’ Tarot is not just a tool for evaluating and analyzing love but also a key to unlocking a deeper understanding of how we interact and connect with our partners, thereby enhancing the quality of our relationships.

 

 

Exploring the Tarot of Trees - A Spiritual Journey Through Nature

The Tarot of Trees


AAA147

In the diverse world of Tarot, the “Tarot of Trees” stands out with its elegance and vibrant colors, opening up a fresh and intimate spiritual space connected with nature. This deck was created by Dana Driscoll, who has poured her passion into personifying each tree, transforming them into meaningful cards.

The “Tarot of Trees” deck consists of 78 cards, divided into two main parts: the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana. Each card carries its own message, reflecting different aspects of life and humanity. From “The Fool,” representing the start of a journey, to “The World,” symbolizing completion and wholeness, each card is a part of a larger story.

What makes the “Tarot of Trees” unique is the use of natural imagery and trees to depict the cards. Here, trees are not just symbols of vitality but also sources of creativity and imagination. They are portrayed with bright and rich colors, creating a deck that is both rustic and mystical.

This deck is suitable for both Tarot beginners and experienced practitioners. It serves not only as a tool for readings but also as an inspiration for self-exploration and spiritual growth. The “Tarot of Trees” invites us to view life through a new lens, where nature and spirituality merge, guiding us to deeper understandings of ourselves and the world around us.

In the digital age, the “Tarot of Trees” serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and the cosmos. It is not just a deck of cards but a spiritual journey, an adventure through a forest of understanding and self-awareness. This is undoubtedly a deck worth collecting and experiencing.

Wildwood Whispers Tarot: Evoking the magic of the wild and the whispers of ancient trees


Ostara Tarot



 BBB081

Ostara Tarot: Dive into the enchanting world of the Ostara Tarot, where traditional Tarot symbols blend with contemporary themes! This stunning 78-card deck, along with its accompanying guidebook, invites you to connect with the wild natural world and explore your feminine intuition. With the Ostara Tarot, you can forge a personal relationship with Mother Earth, express reverence for the world around you, and relish those magical moments when you can once again feel a part of it.

Here are some key features of the Ostara Tarot:

  • 78 Beautifully Illustrated Cards: Each card features silver edges.
  • Color Guidebook: Provides meanings for all the major and minor arcana cards in both upright and reversed positions.
  • Elegantly Designed Box: Compact and adorned with a glossy finish.

The Ostara Tarot is a collaborative creation by four talented artists based in Vancouver, Canada: Molly Applejohn, Eden Cook, Christa Gibbard, and Julia Iredale. These artists met at an art school and quickly discovered their shared interest in mysticism. They embarked on an ambitious mission—to create their own Tarot deck. Each artist contributed their unique style to the project, illustrating a suit and a portion of the Major Arcana. While the Major Arcana draws inspiration from traditional Rider-Waite-Smith imagery, the Minor Arcana offers original interpretations with slightly less RWS symbolism. Notably, each number and court card (except the Queen) in the Minor Arcana is associated with a specific animal, left to the artist’s interpretation. The Queens, however, are the artists’ own designs.

The deck consists of 78 cards: 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana. The Minor Arcana is divided into four suits—Wands, Coins, Cups, and Swords—each containing 10 numbered cards and 4 court cards (Page, Knight, Queen, and King). The Major Arcana retains the traditional titles and order established by A. E. Waite. While the Major Arcana cards display titles, the Minor Arcana cards feature only numbers, with one-word titles for the Court cards

BBB076:Fool’s Folly: A nod to the Tarot Fool card and its carefree spirit.

 Clowns in tarot and in life.


BBB076

I understand that you’re feeling exhausted after a challenging workweek. The desire for connection with friends is natural, yet sometimes solitude feels equally appealing. Let me help you translate the description of the Tarot card you found:

The Fool

Image: A person standing at the edge of a cliff. Attire: The person wears a jester-like outfit, but time has faded the vibrant colors, turning them into earthy yellows and browns. Head: The person wears a jester’s hat and gazes not at the abyss before them, but into the distance where there is nothing. Hidden adversary: A crocodile lurks below the cliff, but the person pays no attention to it. Weapon: The person holds a sturdy staff, yet they don’t use it to fend off the pursuing dog. Symbol: At their feet lies a broken statue, which they ignore. Meaning:

The Fool represents new beginnings, daring, and stepping out of one’s comfort zone. They are unconcerned with danger and unaware of the challenges ahead. This card signifies a new phase in life, even if the direction is unclear. The hidden crocodile symbolizes latent risks, but the Fool remains oblivious. The staff and jester’s hat reflect their carefree and irresponsible attitude.

In the hidden system:

  • The broken statue at their feet symbolizes the glory of a great person.
  • The scepter represents external authority.

Remember that you’re not alone, and seeking support from friends can be rejuvenating. Take care! 😊
