Description
An intricately detailed, luxurious and colourful tarot deck, featuring real cats and their universal wisdom and cattitude by illustrator and cat lady extraordinaire, Helenasia.
* Deluxe Set: The set includes the 22 cards of the Major Arcana as well as 11 alternate cards (thanks to the backers of the Kickstarter campaign) that can be used to customise your deck. In total that’s 34 full-colour illustrated tarot cards (70mm by 120mm) each with gold foil details front and back and gold edges, accompanied by a 56-page mini guidebook with sample spreads, and placed in a full colour keepsake box with gold foil accents.
* All Cards Based on Real Cats!: Each card in the Cosmic Cat Tarot features a real cat, chosen specifically for the card they represent. Seven of the cats in the deck are Helenasia’s own fur babies, past and present. There is a mix of moggies and pure bred cats of all colours, shapes, and sizes, with a generous helping of black cats (the voids are the best)
* Mini Tarot Guidebook: The mini guidebook provides a welcoming introduction to the tarot, with traditional Rider Waite inspired interpretations for each card, as well as instructions for sample readings.
* Vibrant Full Colour Artwork by Helenasia : The Cosmic Cat Tarot features Helenasia’s signature style of colourful and beautifully painted cats, capturing their true personalities in scenes augmented with floral, astrological and celestial imagery.
* The Perfect Gift: This intricate, vibrant and luxurious tarot deck set is an ideal gift for tarot novices, seasoned readers, fans of witchery and the occult, and of course most of all, cat people.

I bought these at The Cat Show Live 2025 and oh my goodness they are stunning! I have a couple of cat decks but they are nothing compared to this. I’ve barely looked at each card in detail but each one is so obviously drawn with a lot of love and thought as to why they represent each card. The bright colouring, gilt and use of real cats as inspiration for each one is what seems to elevate these above the rest. Reading the mini booklet and absorbing the imagery later will be so fascinating – I am guessing I will see something each time I view each card. When I bought the deck, Helenasia told me to get my cat to bless the cards! Such a great idea… if she wasn’t a Daddy’s girl who is terrified of all things witchy & tarot. I shall have to wait till I’m fussing her or pop them by her when she is having a snooze while we are both on the bed.
The only disappointment was that it didn’t include the minor arcana, but I can understand why as the artwork involved is obviously incredibly time intensive for each card. I would love it if you could do a Minor Arcana deck too Helenasia – if you ever do please email and I will definitely purchase it! If you are stuck for cats maybe ask people on a kickstarter to send in images of their cats and something about their personality. Or visit shelters to meet cats and bring their stories to your deck. I would also love to have a copy of the hardback book if you ever do another print run. It would be so lovely eventually to have a deluxe version with a full deck and a hardback book in a presentation box like other tarot decks. However I’m sure that would cost a fortune to print and buy…. But you know, goals! Keep up the good work. Five stars!

Oh I would LOVE to do the full deck! I have ideas for it already! There are already a few shelter kitties in the existing deck:) It took me about 2 years to complete the Major Arcana, but I do hope to start work on the Minors in the next year. Thank you so so much for your kind words, they mean the world to me!
