Tarot of the Divine by Yoshi Yoshitani

Tarot of the Divine: A Deck and Guidebook Inspired by Deities, Folklore, and Fairy Tales from Around the World by Yoshi Yoshtani

Published September 1, 2020 by Clarkson Potter. ISBN 978-0593135143
This deck by Yoshi Yoshitani is what I wish I had when I first got into tarot. Instead of reinterpreting the traditional and often limited iconography of Rider-Waite and Morgan-Greer, Yoshitani collects folklore from a genuinely diverse and inclusive cross-section of cultures around the world to create vivid new imagery that nonetheless channels the familiar wisdom of tarot. The amount of research put into this deck shows through, proving that tarot does not have to culturally appropriate or misrepresent living cultures to have mystique.
Golden Thread Tarot Deck from Labyrinthos

Golden Thread Tarot Deck published by Labyrinthos

The tactile sensation of shuffling cards is an essential part of tarot reading. The Golden Thread deck is printed on thin, recycled plastic that shuffles more smoothly than other decks. The gold foil accentuates the stylized artwork for an experience where the distilled, traditional iconography of tarot takes center stage.
Wild Unknown Archetypes by Kim Krans

The Wild Unknown Archetypes Deck and Guidebook by Kim Krans

Published October 15, 2019 by HarperOne. ISBN 978-0062871770
This deck is more properly described as oracle cards, as the imagery and concepts are not based on tarot. Instead, the Archetypes deck selects several Jungian icons of the psyche for a reading more rooted in the unconscious processes of the mind.
Gothic Cowboy Tarot by Kit Kellogg

The Gothic Cowboy Tarot by Kit Kellogg

The Gothic Cowboy tarot is a set of oracle cards centering classic iconography of the southwestern USA. The cards do not map to the arcana and suits of tarot; the guidebook includes interpretations for both upright and reversed draws. Unfortunately, the deck no longer appears to be available online.
