Stockholm17 introduces the captivating Madame Laveau The Soothsayer, a unique extension to the Odd Fellow series. This alluring deck, featuring a blue tuck and a metallic tea green gilded deck, draws inspiration from the famed New Orleans Voo-Doo Queen, Marie Laveau.
The design intricately weaves together elements of voodoo, divination, and chiromancy, creating a mystical tapestry within each card. While maintaining the structural familiarity of a standard poker set, Madame Laveau’s deck distinguishes itself through a unique approach.
The court cards, representing 12 of the tarot’s major arcana, are thoughtfully connected to zodiac signs, seamlessly merging the worlds of astrology and tarot.
The suits are adorned with distinctive mystical symbols:
- Hearts: Astronomical symbols representing celestial bodies.
- Diamonds: Celestial symbols depicting spirits and angels.
- Clubs: African Nsibibi pictograms.
- Spades: Alchemical symbols for an esoteric touch.
Madame Laveau is printed by WJPC and available now on Stockholm17 for $19.90.
