Stockholm17 presents unique addition to the Odd Fellow family: Madame Laveau The Soothsayer. This deck, inspired by the renowned New Orleans Voo-Doo Queen Marie Laveau, integrates her mystical practices into its design. Featuring voodoo, divination, chiromancy, and more, it's a blend of the arcane and the mystical.
Structurally, the deck mirrors a standard poker set, but with a twist: the court cards represent 12 of the 22 major arcana from the tarot, each linked to a zodiac sign and corresponding month, blending the worlds of astrology and tarot.
The deck’s suits are each themed with a unique set of mystical or mysterious symbols:
- Hearts are adorned with astronomical symbols, representing celestial bodies.
- Diamonds feature celestial symbols, depicting spirits and angels.
- Clubs showcase the African Nsibibi pictograms.
- Spades are decorated with alchemical symbols, adding an esoteric touch to the deck.
