The Grunge Tarot Deck - Francesca Matteoni, Andrea Moresco

A quirky, unique tarot deck that embraces the culture of 1990s-era Grunge—its fashion, its music, and its personalities.

The word “grunge” originally meant dirty, shabby—now it refers to a raw rock sound that jibes well with the esoteric symbolism of tarot. This deck is an adventure that crosses the mysterious world of archetypes to arrive at the heart of the 1990s and Grunge, the music style from Seattle that has become a cultural reference point the world over. A grain of truth can exist anywhere, even in the pockets of an old, checkered shirt, backstage at a concert, or in the doubts and vulnerability of adolescence. Starting from Grunge, this deck of cards aims to recreate the atmosphere of the restlessness of the era, highlighting the search for identity among extremes. It is the dreamy and transgressive imagination of the Fool that begins every path, ready to lose himself or be redeemed.
