Medicine Woman Tarot
"The Medicine Woman Tarot honors Mother Earth and respects all beings, embodied and in spirit. It guides through the seasons and the powers which they provide to all who live in earth's embrace. Seventy-eight positive images depict the feminine strength in both men and women."
— Carol Bridges, Introduction to The Medicine Woman Tarot Deck
The Medicine Woman Tarot is a radiant, earth-honoring deck that places the sacred feminine at the center of every reading. Created by Carol Bridges, its 78 vibrant cards reimagine the tarot through the lens of indigenous wisdom, seasonal cycles, and reverence for the natural world — offering a path of healing, guidance, and deep connection to the earth.
The Deck's Sacred Structure:
The 22 Major Arcana, called the Great Mystery, trace a journey of life from the Seed (the Fool) to the Dancer (the World). The Minor Arcana flows through four elemental suits reimagined for the natural world:
- 🪨 Stones — earth, abundance, material wisdom (Coins/Pentacles)
- 🪈 Pipes — fire, creativity, action (Wands)
- 🏹 Arrows — air, thought, truth (Swords)
- 🥣 Bowls — water, emotion, intuition (Cups)
The court cards become Apprentice (Page), Totem (Knight), Lodge (Queen), and Exemplar (King) — honoring indigenous community roles and wisdom-keeping traditions.
