Jeu de tarot Ancestral Healing

As a racialized migrant woman living in Spain, tarot is part of my daily care practice. This deck moved me in ways I didn't expect. For the first time, I felt someone had opened a window in a visual tradition that has long been shaped almost exclusively by White-European imagery.

Thank you, Care!

The people on these cards (Black, Indigenous, and Polynesian) are not included as tokens of diversity. They inhabit the tarot with dignity, depth, and presence. Every image carries memory, grief, resilience, and beauty. Some cards brought me back to my childhood and the faces of my ancestors; others invited me to sit with inherited wounds that still live in my body.

This is a deck that can hurt. And that is precisely what makes it so healing.

If I had to describe what this tarot has become for me, I would call it an adaptogen for my spirituality, one that gently reminds me who I am. Living in a world where spirituality is still often imagined through whiteness, that constantly asks us to adapt to symbols, images, and languages that have too often erased our histories, this deck does the opposite: it creates a spiritual space where our memories belong, unapologetically.

I can't think of higher praise. Because sometimes healing begins with something as simple, and as immense, as turning over a card and recognizing a face that could have belonged to your own family.

The Ancestral Healing Tarot Deck opens me up to the divinatory art and practice of tarot in a way that expands my human experience, my connection to my environment, my family and my lineage. It is a deck that centralizes connection, feeling and embodiment, while honouring the generations of ancestors through the altar like illustrations that each card has.
While the Ancestral Healing Tarot Deck honours traditional Tarot illustrations and symbols, it is different and special as it replaces the commonly used aristocratic and hierarchical symbols with earths 4 elements and the element of spirit. This grounding approach is achieved through vivid and detailed depictions of fire, air, water, earth and spirit, while maintaining a correspondence to the essence and practice of traditional tarot. The Ancestral Healing Tarot Deck reflects on power, pain, belonging, love, fear, community and being in way that is cathartic, authentic and wholesome. All Black and Indigenous ancestors depicted in the deck are in worlds and realms which Care has depicted with sincerity and respect. Again, all collage-like depictions place such careful and intentional attention to earth's elemental beauty and the sanctity of spirit. Engaging with this tarot deck, is a beautiful reminder of the grounding and healing practice of tarot. With every reading and spread I am surrounded by a healing energy. This deck is an outstanding reminder of the immensity of our consciousness and the gift of life. I recommend it to all Black and Indigenous people

This is what my soul has been longing for. I am so thankful I came across this. The cards are beautiful. The guidebook is beautiful. Truly, the universe wanted me to have this.

The deck is very well-designed but the way it was shipped ruined it slightly.

I ordered several esoteric decks (from different sellers) around the same time. However, this order from Polar Embassy was shipped to the USA. It was left at my front step in a regular, small and thin cardboard box with no other protective material inside or around the item. There was a huge thunderstorm while I was out and the deck container and cards got every bit of rain, while the other sellers' decks had a protective plastic/shrink-wrap around the deck itself and/or was in bubble mailers (keeping the items dry).

My Ancestral Healing cards were soaking wet: I had to remove the cards and booklet from their box (which is also thin paper and started tearing due to the water), and then had to fan and/or dry everything under my candle warmer for almost 2 days. Beautiful deck but a negative customer experience sadly.

just beautiful. i really connected to the deck which is not just thanks to the touching pictures but also to the whishes of care in the booklet.
thank you <3

I received my deck the other evening and it’s beautiful. The readings are clear and dead on. I couldn’t be happier. This makes a wonderful addition to my collection.

I really enjoyed the deck and ordered directly more Decks to give it as presents

The imagery is stunning! I have several oracle and tarot decks and this one by far speaks to me and lifts my spirits every time I use it. Thank you and blessings to the creator who birthed this work of witchy art.

Finally a deck doesn’t demonize feelings and darkness. Instead you will find a beautifully curated Tarot deck with images inspiring understandings of the cards that come from an understanding of collectivity and lineage and working deeply with the elements. Darkness is no place of fear or evil here, it is a place of dense and expansive power that reaches so far back in lineages of wisdom it feels like we're traveling right to the source. This deck has empowered me to harness this power, love it and get comfortable embodying it. Also love that this deck does not need any kind of binary or hierarchy. The art and writing are so charming and intriguing there is just an expansiveness to be explored to draw our own meaning. The extensive guidebook on the website is absolutely wonderful to work with! I love the affirmations and astrological placements. It gives more understanding to my own astrological chart as well. Highly highly recommend the deck! Beautiful art, beautiful energy!
