Token Tarot
by Erin Taylor
Theme: Tarot symbolism on wooden tokens
Medium: mixed media
The Token Tarot is a unique divination system that replaces traditional tarot cards with wooden tokens etched with tarot-inspired symbols and numbers. Created by Erin Taylor, this set offers an alternative, tactile approach to tarot readings.
About This Deck
The Token Tarot by Erin Taylor reimagines the classic tarot system as a set of wooden tokens rather than a deck of cards. Each token is etched with a symbol or number corresponding to a specific tarot card, providing a tactile and distinct method for divination. This approach maintains the core structure and symbolism of tarot while offering a fresh, minimalist aesthetic and a different physical interaction during readings.
The system is designed to be intuitive for those familiar with tarot, as the tokens feature recognizable imagery and numbering. The use of natural wood for the tokens lends an organic, grounding quality to the set, contrasting with the often intricate and colorful artwork of traditional card decks. This makes the Token Tarot suitable for readers who appreciate natural materials and a more understated, symbolic form of expression in their divination tools.
While the exact number of tokens is not specified, the concept implies a full representation of the Major and Minor Arcana, allowing for comprehensive readings. The tokens can be drawn, cast, or arranged in spreads, offering flexibility in how they are used. This innovative format appeals to collectors of unique divination tools and experienced readers seeking to deepen their practice through a new medium.
