The astonishing result of mixing hard science and real art into a tarot deck!
Where to buy the Science Tarot
It's happening: Science Tarot is going into its second printing!We are thrilled to announce that Science Tarot is now printed right here in California, where the deck was created. We are especially proud that working with a local printer allowed us to create printed colors more vibrant and more true to the original artworks. The cardbacks' chalkboard green is more real, the reds of stars looks nearly radioactive, and the faces throughout are more lively.
The new printing also offers excellent cardstock, a new gloss with a better grip for shuffling ease, and the same well-loved, nearly bullet-proof box. All content is identical to the first printing, including the booklet of 100 pages still included within. Only the colors are adjusted to better reveal the artwork!
This 2nd Edition of Science Tarot should be available in July.
Thank you so much for all your support and interest! Stay connected by liking us on Facebook for details as they develop, and check back here.
