A White Witch Tarot deck is a type of tarot deck that incorporates white witchcraft principles and imagery. White witchcraft refers to a branch of witchcraft that is associated with healing, protection, and benevolence. It is often contrasted with black witchcraft, which is associated with harmful or malicious intentions. The White Witch Tarot deck typically features artwork and symbolism that aligns with white witchcraft practices. This can include imagery of nature, animals, crystals, and other elements associated with healing and spirituality. The deck may also incorporate symbols and archetypes from white witchcraft traditions, such as the moon, the sun, and the elements (earth, air, fire, and water).
In the meantime, I’ve brewed and bottled some of the Academy’s brightest teachings to create this exclusive deck, only available on Kickstarter.
Through exercises involving images from the tarot, sigils, everyday rituals, daily practice, and movement, readers will rediscover their Witchy bodies and the magic that flows through them and permeates the world around them. If ever you have yearned for moon-kissed mysteries, kinship with wildflowers, and ecstatic connections with Nature and her cycles, you have felt a witch s wisdom stirring within.
