White Numen: A Sacred Animal Tarot | Book Picks

‍

This beautifully illustrated tarot deck is the stunning debut of Alba Ballesta González, a Spanish artist and graphic designer. Sacred animal spirits ('Numen') are interwoven into the classical imagery of the tarot to create cards that are both otherworldly and contemporary, with a flair of fantasy.

‍

Most of the illustrations feature powerful women, including Death, draped in a black cloak, carrying her banner, and riding a white horse; the Queen of Pentacles, seated gracefully amid soft greenery; and the Sun striding across a desert-like landscape. Inspired by ancient rituals and stories of sacred animal spirits, White Numen forms a path to human reconnection with the natural world and spiritual realm.
