Scottish artist Anita Inverarity created Universal Folk Tarot based on the Waite-Smith framework interwoven with narratives from world folklore and mythology. The deck and its universal stories are rooted in healing energy and deep compassionate understanding, yet also offers the opportunity to work with the shadow self. For each card, the characters are gifted with animal and crystal companions that bring their own particular medicine and vibration to support readers on their journeys. The 244-page illustrated guidebook explores the lush symbolism and meanings of the 78 painted-edge cards.
