The Altered Tarot Deck and Guidebook

A beautifully crafted tool for insight and reflection

The Altered Tarot Deck was created with care, intention, and artistry—every photograph, poem, and design made entirely by humans, without the use of AI.

Drawing from the archetypes of the Rider-Waite tradition, the deck traces the Fool’s Journey through the Major Arcana and explores the everyday wisdom of the Minor Arcana. Each card features evocative full-color photography by Hiatt, which balances light and shadow.

What’s Included:

• 78 full-color cards (3.5″ × 5″ / 88 × 126 mm)
• Magnetic book-style box with a soft-touch finish for durability and beauty
• 188-page full-color guidebook by Tanksley, featuring:
  • Introduction and guidance on reading the cards
  • Insights into the Major and Minor Arcana
  • Upright and reversed meanings
  • Original poems for each card
  • Full-color images of every card

From first shuffle to daily use, the Altered Tarot Deck invites reflection, connection, and a deepened relationship with archetypal wisdom—all packaged with care and intention.
