Indie Deck Review
Indie Deck Review is a wealth of resources for one of a kind Tarot Decks straight from creators. They wrote up this powerful statement for the first edition of Interim Tarot
“The word Interim, according to the Interim Tarot’s guidebook, means an intervening time; provisional or temporary. In other words, it’s that space and time in between.
I wouldn’t have thought of that description on my own, but that’s a perfect way to define this deck. It sits on the edge of so many different themes but doesn’t fit nicely into any category. There are cute cards, but it's not a cute deck. There are also weird things happening, but it's not a weird deck either. Sometimes it makes me feel like I’m out of my elements but it always still feels like home. It’s not our reality, but it’s definitely more than a dream.
The artwork further carries out this theme of existing in between solidly defined concepts. Adopting a monochrome colour scheme gives it a simple appearance. At the same time, the busy line work gives it a sense of complexity.
The little guidebook that fits inside its two piece box is a giant of a resource. Normally, guidebooks that size can capture only the most basic information. The card explanations in this book, however, are thoughtful and eloquent. Combined with the beautiful cards, this is one of those decks that really help me expand my interpretation comfort zone.
I find the Interim Tarot highly intriguing because it’s not just another RWS derivative. Many cards carry a slightly different twist than what I'm used to. There are so many interrelated concepts embedded into each tarot card that it’s impossible to capture them all. Like a Bosch painting, there are simply too many different points of focus. I don’t know where each card begins or ends but if the standard RWS interpretations represents somewhere in the middle of the painting, the Interim Tarot is probably somewhere just left of center, between two focal points.
This beautiful deck will soon have a second edition that will be borderless. The Kickstarter campaign is already fully funded but you can still grab a copy at:
