My modern interpretation of the Justice tarot card as an indie tarot artist, designed with equity, activism, and lived experience in mind. In this post, I share the meaning behind my illustration, the symbolism I chose, and how contemporary tarot can reflect today’s fight for justice.

This is the whole juicy back story about why I decided to illustrate a tarot deck. It all began with a three-card spread I pulled for myself in 2018. Using the tarot was a way for me to learn how to listen to myself, to hear what I already knew deep within.

The first card in the tarot is The Fool, number 0 (zero). In this post I describe how I came up with my idea for The Fool card, my process for illustrating it, and why it makes me think of winter.

In this post, I explain how the tarot is organized, including the major arcana, and who created the iconic tarot designs we all know.
