Moon Crystal Tarot

The Moon Crystal Tarot is a 22-card Major Arcana deck that merges the iconic characters of Sailor Moon with the archetypal symbolism of the Rider-Waite-Smith (RWS) tarot system. Created by artist Alexandra (ScreenGirl), the deck draws on her childhood fascination with Sailor Moon and her later attraction to tarot's universal archetypes. Each card thoughtfully assigns a Sailor Moon character to a Major Arcana card, aligning their personality traits and powers with the card's traditional meanings.

The deck was printed in Italy on 330gsm triplex casino-quality paper, designed for durability and ease of shuffling. The cards measure 65x115mm, a slightly more compact size than many standard tarot decks. The initial packaging included full-color cardboard boxes, with a goal to upgrade to a gold foil box if funding targets were met. The creator also offered various hand screen-printed add-ons, such as cotton pouches, luxury storage boxes, and journals, all featuring a glitter hologram effect with a pastel split fountain print.

This deck is positioned as a unique collectible for fans of Sailor Moon and tarot enthusiasts alike. It offers a fresh, nostalgic lens through which to engage with the profound themes of the Major Arcana, making it accessible and engaging for those familiar with the anime while retaining the core wisdom of the RWS system. The blend of pop culture and traditional divination creates a distinctive and personal reading experience.

This deck is ideal for Sailor Moon fans who are also interested in tarot, offering a nostalgic and personalized entry point into divination. It appeals to collectors of pop culture-themed decks and those who appreciate a whimsical, character-driven approach to the Major Arcana. Readers familiar with the Rider-Waite-Smith system will find the archetypes recognizable, while the unique imagery provides a fresh perspective. It is particularly suited for those who enjoy a blend of anime aesthetics and spiritual exploration.

Alexandra (ScreenGirl) developed the Moon Crystal Tarot out of a deep personal connection to both Sailor Moon and the Major Arcana. Growing up, she was inspired by the strength of Sailor Moon characters and Usagi Tsukino's journey. This passion converged with her interest in tarot's universal archetypes, leading her to spend a year meticulously matching character traits and powers to the RWS Major Arcana. Her Berlin workshop also produced hand screen-printed add-ons, showcasing a commitment to artisanal craftsmanship alongside digital illustration.
