Gaian Tarot, a Deck in Progress by Joanna Powell Colbert
Home Intro Majors Minors Reviews Oracle Creative Process Bio Links Shop Journal / Blog Contact


The Gaian Tarot celebrates the living Earth and those who seek to live in harmony with Her. It is an evocative and powerful tool for accessing inner guidance. The imagery of the deck combines multicultural Goddesses and other numinous beings with the mysteries of the natural world. Each image features birds, animals, plants, trees, rocks, constellations and other aspects of nature that amplify the meaning of the card. With its structure rooted in Tarot tradition, the Gaian Tarot is the perfect deck for those who honor Gaia, the earth, as a living, sentient being and who practice an earth-centered spirituality.

The Gaian Tarot is a work in progress. The 22 images of the Major Arcana are finished. The Limited (First) Edition of the Majors-Only Deck is sold out, but the Second Edition is now available for purchase.

Now that the Major Arcana is done, I am focusing on the Minor Arcana. They are already planned out and currently exist as notes, thumbnail sketches and works in progress. I will be posting images of the minors as I complete them. I expect the entire deck, both Majors and Minors, to be published as one complete deck when it is finished. I am also writing an accompanying book.

Each Gaian Tarot card that I have completed is available as a limited edition, archival-quality print.

I would love to hear your comments on my Tarot cards and will post them on these pages with your permission. Thank you for your support and encouragement!

“Joanna Powell Colbert has done artwork and writing in the field of nature spirituality for many years. The Gaian Tarot is a masterpiece, one of the highlights of her career.”

- Elizabeth Barrette, Editor, PanGaia Magazine

“No matter what your spiritual path is, this is one gorgeous deck. But it is seriously steeped in earth-centered lore and symbolism, and is, in my opinion, hands down the best tarot for Pagans around. . .”

- Diane Wilkes, Tarot Passages

What’s New?

4.4.08: What a winter it's been! I've had to take a break from working on the Minors, although you can see the Seven of Air and Seven of Fire on my blog. I am now in the process of moving my home and studio to Bellingham, Washington and expect to be back at work on the rest of the Minors by the beginning of May.

I'm excited about attending the Tarot School's 2008 Readers Studio in New York from April 24-27. I'll be one of the “Celebrity Readers” there, as well as a vendor. It promises to be yet another fabulous Tarot event.

I've revised the Tarot Readings page on this site. I'm now offering readings by phone, video chat or in person in Bellingham, Washington. I use my Gaian deck-in-progress for my readings, along with other decks for comparative readings. Detailed info on the Readings page. You can download a PDF of my brochure.

I've been blogging regularly in my Artist's Journal. If you want to keep current with me, please visit me there.

The Second Edition Majors-Only Deck is available for purchase! Click here for details.

Blessings of Spring . . . May Flora dance in your gardens!
