Quantum Tarot: A Tarot of New Physics with Cards

by Kay Stopforth

Quantum Tarot: A Tarot of New Physics with Cards Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Combining 20th-century physics, astronomy, and quantum mechanics with the traditional archetypes of a tarot deck, this theoretical investigation lends poetic expression to extraordinary scientific theory. With gorgeous illustrations that offer a new glimpse of the universe, the accompanying cards offer both wonderful meditation images and basic tarot functionality. This fascinating analysis examines how the most important theories in modern physics play out in two extreme worldsthe vast expanses of the universe and the strange, invisible world inside the atom itself.

Review:

"The Quantum Tarot explores the polar extremes of modern physics,­ the vast reaches of outer space, and the ultra-microscopic world of subatomic space through its 78 visually striking cards. The deck aims to give poetic and symbolic expression to the dry theory of science."  Aeclectic Tarot Official Review
