Kahn and Selesnick’s new seasonal Tarot deck is here at last! This new cartomantic auguries were photographed in the artists’ gardens in Ghent, New York and Morlaix, Bretagne.

This gorgeous deck is also accompanied by a guidebook to the meanings and mysteries of the Drowning World Tarot as channeled and transcribed by author and Tarot scholar Sarah Falkner. This book is a deep dive into the philosophies that informed the project and includes new interpretations for all the cards of the deck.
