To some it might look like a weird question, but I'm curious to know if you aware of some tarot decks that would fit the following characteristics :
-Depicting animals and/or humans on at least some cards
-Humans not using animals in any way (no horseback riding, no clothes clearly animal-derived, etc)
-Animals not shown as having suffered because of humans (for example, caged or pierced by a sword)
-No animal-derived food pictured
Animals and humans can be shown together on cards, if it's clear they are companions and not in a dominant-submissive relationship or hunter-prey situation.
For now I don't think I own a deck that fits, even the animism tarot had me deceived on this!
The 9 of wands show a circus elephant breaking free and destroying everything. Good for him but when seeing this card I'm automatically reminded of similar real-life situations and it causes me to lose my focus.
Same with the Wild Unknown. Many people are triggered by the very violent 10 of swords, with reason! It shows a dead bull pierced by 10 swords, including one going through his eye sockets.
And then most decks including humans, especially the ones nature-oriented, will show people riding horses or other animals.
I am able to read with these decks, but I would be really happy if I could find a deck being 100% 'vegan friendly'.
I ordered the Mystical Cats Tarot and I have some hopes that it will fit. I also plan on eventually buying some decks that only show concepts or objects, like that Tarot of the Trees or the Physics Tarot.
If anybody thinks of some deck that could fit let me know!
Thanks!
