Nine of EarthThe 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.

The Gaian Tarot deck & book will be published by Llewellyn Worldwide in September 2011. A special collector's edition will be published before then. Date and more info to come. (Sign up for our newsletter to make sure you find out all the details.)

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!

Gaian Tarot Consultations

“My Gaian Tarot reading with Joanna was like looking at the most important issue in my life from about eight different perspectives. Joanna showed me specific steps I could take immediately to make personal and meaningful changes in my life. I feel energized and inspired, like I’ve turned a corner or stepped through a doorway.” — K. Hardy, Bellingham, WA

“My Tarot reading with Joanna was calm, graceful and eye-opening. Her interpretation was unique and struck the “ah-ha!” cord of my soul.
She encouraged me to ask questions and together we created wonderful answers.
— R. Krech, Saint Paul, MN


“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
