The Banned Book Tarot Deck – A Literary-Inspired Tarot Experience
Books have power—and so does Tarot.
The Banned Book Tarot Deck blends the centuries-old wisdom of Tarot with the bold voices of some of the most challenged and revolutionary books in history. Each card is inspired by a banned or frequently challenged title, weaving literary symbolism into intuitive guidance that encourages curiosity, courage, and critical thinking.
Featuring bright, bold artwork by Matthew Taylor Wilson, this deck reimagines classic Tarot through a book-lover’s lens, with custom suits and vibrant imagery that feels both modern and timeless. From literary icons like 1984 and To Kill a Mockingbird to contemporary favorites such as Harry Potter, every card celebrates the power of stories that dared to challenge the status quo.
What’s included:
A complete 76-card Tarot deck
An 80-page guidebook to help you interpret the cards
Custom suits and original artwork inspired by banned and challenged books
Whether you’re a seasoned Tarot reader, a book enthusiast, or someone who loves a little rebellion with their rituals, this deck is a beautiful reminder that ideas are worth protecting—and exploring.
