Santa Muerte Tarot
This deck is inspired by the Mexican cult holiday Día de los Muertos - Day of the Dead, where death is revered as a continuation of life. The symbolism of skeletons, skulls and altars is presented here not as a frightening motif, but as a source of strength, transformation and spiritual rebirth. The illustrations are bright, rich, with elements of folklore, mysticism and magic, turning each arcana into a ritual of honoring life and death.
