Sacred Isles Tarot 🐦‍⬛ ancient paths, forgotten legends, and timeless tarot wisdom woven through the wild landscapes of Britain.

🌿 Ancient Britain, told through the tarot.

Standing stones rise from the earth. Ravens circle overhead. Old paths disappear into the mist.

Sacred Isles Tarot is a 78-card journey through the myths, history, folklore and ancient landscapes of Britain, reimagining the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith tarot among sacred wells, ruined castles, forgotten kingdoms, battlefields, forests and wild places shaped by centuries of story.

Painted in delicate watercolour and ink, the deck remains firmly rooted in familiar tarot symbolism while giving each card another layer drawn from the landscape of the British Isles.

The Fool begins among the ancient stones. The High Priestess waits beside dark water. Kings, warriors, witches, pilgrims and figures from history appear throughout the journey, while ravens, old roads and weathered ruins lead the way from one card to the next.

It is traditional tarot, but with its feet firmly planted in older ground.

Follow the stones. Trust the old paths. Listen to the land.

✨ Includes an 82-page illustrated digital companion

This isn't simply a booklet of card meanings.

The Sacred Isles Companion is a fully illustrated 82-page digital guide exploring the history, landscape, folklore and symbolism woven throughout the entire deck.

Every one of the 78 cards has its own illustrated page, with four elements to explore:

BEHIND THE IMAGE
The symbolism, characters and thinking behind the artwork.

FROM THE ISLES
The real place, person, historical event, tradition or piece of folklore connected to the card.

IN THE CARDS
A clear, accessible interpretation of the traditional tarot meaning.

A SACRED ISLES LINE
An original line capturing the heart of the card.

Discover why Avebury became part of The Fool's journey, how the warning beacons of the Spanish Armada echo through the Eight of Wands, why Culloden Moor belongs to the Three of Swords, and how standing stones, sacred wells, ruined castles, ancient roads and old battlefields add another dimension to familiar tarot symbolism.

You can use the companion alongside your readings, dip into individual cards as they appear, or read it from beginning to end as a journey through the landscape behind the deck.

The companion is supplied as a digital PDF, ready to keep on your phone, tablet or computer.
