5 MORMON TAROT POSTCARDS

Few moments have shaped the spiritual, political, and cultural landscape of the United States quite like early Mormonism. The Mormon Tarot is rooted in the historical foundations of this uniquely American faith, drawing upon the most rigorous scholarship available at the time of its creation. For those unfamiliar with Mormon history, the deck serves as an introduction through archetype and narrative. For those within or adjacent to the tradition, it offers a deeper exploration of tarot's symbolic language, filtered through the lens of a distinctive religious heritage. More broadly, The Mormon Tarot preserves the vivid, often paradoxical origins of a movement that has left an indelible mark on American cultural and religious life.

 

1 SMALL KEEP MORMONISM PECULIAR STICKER

The Mormon community can build unity and trust by embracing its rich, complex history. Transparency about past challenges fosters empathy and understanding, reducing fear of judgment and encouraging open dialogue. Celebrating unique cultural contributions inspires pride and resilience, creating a more inclusive narrative. By honoring its past, the community can strengthen its identity and foster deeper connections, positioning itself as authentic and forward-thinking.

 

2 DESERET ALPHABET TRANSLATOR BOOKMARKS

The Deseret alphabet, created in the 1850s by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was a phonetic writing system designed to simplify English spelling. Led by Brigham Young and developed by George D. Watt, it aimed to aid children and immigrants in learning to read and write. Each symbol represented a distinct sound, addressing the inconsistencies of standard English spelling. However, its use declined after the 1870s due to implementation challenges and assimilation, with only a few books published.

 

3 THE INVERTED NAUVOO PENTACLE STICKERS

These sticker designs are taken from the stained glass window designs of the nauvoo temple. Inverted stars and pentacles appear in several places in mormon and christian architecture. These symbols weren't adopted by esoteric practitioners until later.

 

1 DOUBLE SIDED PRINT OF HOLINESS TO THE LORD MAGIC PARCHMENT

This artifact, more than any other from Mormon History, demonstrates the idea that Mormonism was born in a world of transition. Joseph Smith died just as cameras, trains and scientific innovations were becoming commonplace. Mormonism, in it's own way, is an unbroken chain of people, places and stories that connect us with that enigmatic premodern state of mind when astrology, folk magic, freemasonry and popular christianity were the lenses through which most people saw and understood the world.
