A collector's tarot deck by artist Motto, featuring dark, ethereal artwork centered around the figure of Lilith. The deck blends gothic aesthetics with subtle occult symbolism and a minimalist color palette.
About This Deck
The Tears of Lilith is presented as a collector's tarot deck, designed by artist Motto, which delves into the mythology and mystery surrounding the figure of Queen Lilith. The artwork, visible on the cards and packaging, suggests a thematic focus on dark femininity, power, and the esoteric. While the blurb mentions "Oracle Deck," the visual evidence, including the presence of what appear to be Major Arcana cards (like a figure resembling The Empress or High Priestess, and a card with a sword and hexagram), strongly indicates a tarot structure.
The deck's aesthetic is characterized by a stark, almost monochromatic palette, primarily using black and white with minimal accents of gold or muted tones. This choice contributes to its dark and mysterious atmosphere, allowing the intricate line work and symbolic imagery to stand out. The figures are often depicted with horns or crowns of thorns, emphasizing their connection to a powerful, ancient, and perhaps formidable feminine archetype.
Each card appears to be a piece of art in itself, designed to evoke introspection and a connection to deeper, often shadow aspects of the self. The minimalist approach ensures that the symbolism is clear and impactful, making it suitable for both seasoned collectors and readers who appreciate a visually striking and thematically rich deck.
