About This Deck
The Maven Tarot is a 78-card deck that reinterprets classic tarot archetypes through the lens of contemporary office culture. Created by a collaborative team of college dormmates, the deck uses hand-drawn illustrations to depict skeleton characters engaging in relatable workplace scenarios, from endless meetings to desk clutter. This approach aims to provide a humorous yet insightful commentary on how individuals relate to each other within and outside the corporate environment.
The deck includes a custom booklet designed to guide readings, making it accessible for both new and experienced tarot practitioners. The campaign highlights its focus on "cubicle culture" and "co-worker chaos," suggesting a deck that can offer perspectives on daily work-life balance, interpersonal dynamics, and the often-absurd realities of professional settings. The imagery observed in the campaign shows a distinct, minimalist art style with a limited color palette, emphasizing the skeletal figures and their office surroundings.
Physical production details mentioned include an option for holographic gilded edges, which adds a premium touch to the otherwise stark aesthetic. The deck was designed locally and shipped globally, reflecting the creators' independent spirit. By blending the mystical framework of tarot with the mundane, often stressful, world of the office, the Maven Tarot offers a unique tool for self-reflection on one's professional journey and the broader human experience within structured environments.
