Magicians, Martyrs and Madmen Tarot
Magicians, Martyrs & Madmen Tarot is an 80-card deck that celebrates macabre and miraculous people from throughout history. This deck can be used to connect with the strange, sensual and spiritual figures who have shaped our world with their magic.
Travis McHenry has created this deck to reveal the deeper meaning of the tarot through the deeds – and misdeeds! – of witches, murderers, saints, cannibals and prophets. Like it or not, these are the people who helped build the mind/body/spirit community and there is so much more we have to learn from them!
Each card features original artwork of a magician, martyr, or mad person from the past who had a connection with spirituality or occult practices.
These original paintings were created by Venezuelan artist Christin Gottberg, and they capture the essence of the person on the card and the meaning behind the tarot card itself.

Justice – Matthew HopkinsThe Justice card represents equality, honesty and integrity. When reversed it indicates all the negative aspects of judicial authority, including bias and the failure of a lawsuit. On the card Hopkins is depicted holding a staff and rope, which replace the traditional symbols of the Justice card with ones more applicable to a modern world in which judges are rarely blind or balanced. |
King of Wands – Vlad DraculaThe King of Wands represents a dark man who is honest and provides material and emotional security to the reader. He is austere and intellectual, like Vlad the Impaler, finding creative solutions to difficult problems. This card might indicate a creative pursuit or forthcoming news involving business. |
King of Pentacles - Ratu Udre UdreThe King of Pentacles indicates business and intellectual aptitude, including mathematical ability. There is some pride represented on this card, but also protection. Udre Udre only ate his vanquished enemies, never his own people. He is depicted sitting calmly atop a pile of human skulls, showing that his high position came through his skilful conquest of those who opposed him. |

My 3 year old son really loves these for bath time, even more than bath bombs
I loved it as it was my favourite snack when i was young and it looks cute as a product
I think it’s a great item. I was having a headache on what to buy for my female colleague’s christmas present for secret santa. I was looking through novelty items and i saw this desk sign and i thought it is perfect! She does sales and she always has goals to hit so i thought it would look great on her desk. I just decided to buy it figuring it would be great for her to have something like this.
Plus I was left like one week to buy something and the delivery was fast! Made it just in time for me to give it to my colleague!
This purchase was a rushed buy as I needed them urgently for an overseas trip. What was amazing was their warm and prompt service. Not only were they responsive in their communication, I also received my order very quickly. Thanks again.
