Honouring the connection between regular playing cards and divinatory decks like Tarot and Lenormand, Tarot designer extraordinaire, Robert M Place has come up with yet another fascinating new set of cards – The Hermes Playing Card Oracle.
As described by Place in the ‘Little White Book’ that comes with the deck…
The Hermes Playing Card Oracle is … a standard game deck of 52 cards plus two jokers, but with the addition of symbolic images on each card, each providing a divinatory meaning. It can be used for card games, or laid out in the traditional pattern, known as the Grand Tableau, and used for divination.
If you’re interested in seeing the cards, learning more about them, and maybe ordering a deck for yourself, visit the Hermes Playing Card Oracle project page at Indiegogo.

Here’s a beautiful new Oracle Deck by Célia Melesville called Oracle Des Reflets.
Melesville wasn’t originally trying to make an oracle deck, but was rather just trying out a new art technique involving paper soaked in a mix of walnut stain and water.
Much to her surprise, once the first few sheets of paper were drying, illustrations and symbols began appearing to her and a new deck was born.
Take a look at the video below to see the cards, and visit her project page and/or website to learn more.
