Permaculture Tarot

The Permaculture Tarot is a major arcana tarot deck based on the twelve principles of permaculture. These principles were originally created for designing a slow, sustainable farming practice, but can also be applied to storytelling tools such as the tarot deck. Intuitively visualised with pen and paper, each principle refers to one card in the deck.

This (personal) work was created as part of a collaboration with Celine Caly.
