Trash Friends Tarot

Since November 2022, I've been working on illustrating my own Tarot deck. (I got the idea while traveling 300 miles of terrifyingly icy roads - go figure.)

This deck incorporates Rider-Waite symbolism and gives it a trashy twist. In this story of the Tarot, our guides are a lovable crew of animal companions traveling the path of the Fool. 

Each suit is characterized by its own animal:

  • Treasure-loving raccoons represent Pentacles
  • Prickly porcupines and their quills represent Swords
  • Curious skunks with sticks represent Wands
  • Mischievous possums rooting around in trash cans symbolize Cups

You can follow me at AngryGatoArt on Twitch.

I go through the entire research, design, and illustration process live on stream, so you can hang out with me while I create new cards!

Following me on Twitch is one of the best ways to support this project. (Plus, it's free!)

Where are we at?

I often get folks asking when the Trash Friends Tarot deck will be released.

Right now, we do not have a date for production, as it's still early in the game.

This is a BIG project, and we're really just on the first step of the journey. Drawing 78 cards takes a lot of time, but that gives us time for this project to reach more people!
