Madame Valentine’s Enchanted Oracle: A Story-Driven Cartomancy Deck
Madame Valentine’s Enchanted Oracle: A Story-Driven Cartomancy Deck
Madame Valentine’s Enchanted Oracle on BackerKit is an upcoming oracle card project by independent artist and tarot creator Matt Green, inspired by the tradition of playing-card cartomancy but reimagined through the lore of a mysterious French aristocrat named Madame Valentine.
This beautifully illustrated 52-card oracle deck blends vintage aesthetics with intuitive symbolism. Each card features a single “power word” (like Protector, Witch, or Leadership) drawn from classic cartomantic meanings, making the deck both instantly readable and rich in depth for deeper work.
The narrative framing of the deck comes straight from the imagined private journals of Madame Valentine, who saw hidden messages in the colors and shapes of playing cards and commissioned her own secret deck for insight and reflection.
This deck is designed to be versatile and approachable:
-
✨ Easy daily draws and intuitive readings
-
📝 Journaling and creative prompts for storytellers and writers
-
🎨 Inspiration for artists and seekers
-
🎴 Even useable as a functioning set of playing cards
—all without needing to study complex systems.
