Ancient philosophers and alchemists believed that true wisdom comes from recognizing the timeless patterns woven through life. According to legend, this is exactly what Siddhartha saw beneath the Bodhi Tree—his many lifetimes unfolding like a great wheel, leading to his awakening as the Buddha. The Buddha Tarot shines a light on the striking parallels between that journey to enlightenment and the story told by the Major Arcana. Designed as a spiritual mandala, with the four suits representing the cardinal directions and the trumps forming the sacred center, this deck invites you to shift your awareness, explore deeper layers of self, and move closer to personal wholeness.
