About This Deck
The Rock n Roll Tarot Deck, now in its 2nd Edition, is a 78-card tarot deck created by Vickie Verlie, known as the Rock n Roll Prophetess. This deck aims to combine the timeless wisdom of tarot with the free-spirited energy and visual style of 1960s rock and roll culture. The artwork reinterprets classic Rider-Waite-Smith scenes through a psychedelic lens, featuring vibrant colors and a distinctive, flowing font for card titles.
Verlie, a professional musician, psychic reader, and graphic designer, brings her diverse background to this project. Her intention is to make tarot accessible and engaging for those who resonate with a more modern, counter-culture aesthetic while still providing a functional tool for psychic development and self-exploration. The deck is designed to unlock psychic potential, drawing on Verlie's own upbringing in a psychic family and her early training in tarot.
As a 2nd Edition, the deck likely incorporates refinements from its initial release, though specific changes are not detailed in the campaign. The overall presentation, from the card back design to the individual illustrations, emphasizes a cohesive theme that is both nostalgic and spiritually oriented, reflecting the creator's journey as a "Rock n Roll Prophetess."
