What can it tell me?

A mirror for what you already feel

Each card is a close-up of one of Joline Renn’s abstract paintings. You read the colors and the feeling first, then the words. Most cards print a direct answer: yes, no, maybe or unknown.

Beyond the answers, the deck carries three more layers. Zodiac signs point to timing. The chakra cards tell you where the energy is focused, so you know where to put your attention as you work with the reading. And the seven hermetic principles speak to the bigger pattern behind your question.

Can I read it?

Yes, from the first pull

The answer and keywords are printed right on each card, so you can start reading the day it arrives. Look at the painting, read the answer, then find the keyword that catches you.

When you want to go further, the guidebook takes you deeper into the cards. It rewards the reader who likes to learn.

Look closely

Most cards carry quiet clues: the family it belongs to at the top, a zodiac sign in the corner, the name and keywords across the middle, the answer at the bottom left and its number at the bottom right.

The deck opens with the seven hermetic principles, marked with a small triangle. The same triangle is printed inside the lid, over the words As Above, So Below.

What does it feel like?

Like a rose petal in your hands

The cards have a velvet touch finish: each one feels like a rose petal when you shuffle. The edges are matte black, so the stacked deck has the look of a dark scrying mirror.

It all lives in a rigid two-piece box with the guidebook on top.

Would it make a nice gift?

For the collector whose shelf already holds the classics, it’s the one they don’t have yet. It arrives boxed and ready to give.

Will it work with my deck?

Made to sit beside your tarot

The Empathic Mirror was created as a tarot companion, to clarify any deck. Lay out your spread as usual. Where a card feels unclear, pull one Empathic Mirror card and set it beside it. It says plainly what that card is circling.

It pairs especially well with the traditional Rider-Waite or the Light Seer’s Tarot. And on its own, it’s a quick way to get a direction.
