The sky is calculated
Star positions come from real astronomical catalogues and are computed in code for each card, as they truly appear in the sky. Nothing is drawn by guesswork.

The decks
Akhuyet joins two ancient Egyptian words. Our first tarot is made of both: two complete decks with the same cards, one for each soul. Placed side by side, each pair of cards becomes a single, continuous sky.
The luminous soul. Cream and morning gold; the sky printed like an astronomer's glass plate, in negative.
The shadow soul. Indigo and night; the same sky as the eye sees it, stars burning in the dark.
Made by hand, not by AI
No image in these decks is AI-generated. Each card is built from real astronomy, modelled and drawn by hand, one star at a time.
Star positions come from real astronomical catalogues and are computed in code for each card, as they truly appear in the sky. Nothing is drawn by guesswork.
Shapes and light are built by hand in Blender, so every figure has real volume and is lit like the sky around it.
Gold lines, annotations and details are added by hand, and every card is checked against its pair in the other deck.
The twelve signs
Each sign is drawn from the stars that form it. Choose yours, and we will send you its sky.
