This well-researched deck seamlessly links the literary works of Jane Austen-characters, conversation, themes-with Tarot symbolism, producing a provocative convergence flavored with profound meaning.

The Tarot of Jane Austen is a marvelous achievement. Diane Wilkes has beautifully blended two worlds that, on the surface, are not connected. As she scratches that surface and digs deeper, she reveals that these two worlds do have much in common, for both expound the virtue of balance and provide guidance in recognizing our own moral compass. Based on the Rider-Waite-Smith format in image composition and interpretations, this deck can be used by a fairly wide audience. Unlike many such marriages of theme and Tarot that often feel contrived or forced, there are enough moral, spiritual, and mundane scenes in Jane Austen’s work to provide images for each card. There are two caveats with this deck: First, Wilkes says in the companion book that “the ideal audience for this deck and book is two-fold; Tarot enthusiasts and devotees.

Available as a standalone deck, now in a kit with a companion book.

The cards are fully-illustrated, and mainly feature scenes from Pride and Prejudice, Emma, Sense and Sensibility, and Mansfield Park.

The Tarot of Jane Austen is a wonderful tarot with characters and situations from the books of 19th century English author, Jane Austen.
