Reimagining Tarot: Trisha’s Vision for a Modern Tarot Guide

With tarot continuing to surge in popularity, not just as a mystical practice but as a tool for reflection and personal growth, it feels like the right moment to revisit a standout project from Trisha’s portfolio.

Back in 2024, Trisha Srivastava collaborated with Quercus on The Life Changing Power of Tarot, a fully illustrated guide that rethinks traditional tarot. Rather than focusing on fortune telling, the book presents tarot as a framework for breaking unhelpful thought patterns, navigating challenges, and building a more mindful, growth oriented perspective.

Trisha created a complete deck of 72 illustrations, reimagining the classic Rider Waite imagery through a contemporary lens. Each card balances symbolism with emotional insight, designed to reflect not just archetypes but the complexities of personal experience, from strengths and setbacks to moments of change.

As Trisha shares:

“Working on The Life Changing Power of Tarot with Georgia White was such a good time. I illustrated the full deck, reworking familiar tarot cards in a way that felt fresh to me, spending time understanding each meaning and then translating that into visuals. It was very intuitive and a bit experimental, which I loved. The team at Quercus, along with Georgia, were amazing throughout, they really helped bring the whole thing together and made the process feel easy and collaborative.”
