The Sealed Path Tarot – Tarot of the Five Elements

An expanded tarot deck exploring the five elements, esoteric wisdom, and personal transformation

The Sealed Path Tarot: Tarot of the Five Elements is a richly layered 97-card tarot deck that honours the sacred pact between the querent and the cards. Designed as a journey of insight, reflection, and exploration, this deck invites readers to engage with tarot as both a symbolic system and a deeply personal path.

Created by David Bergen, the deck features luminous, non-AI artwork combining original paintings, collage, and photography to create a timeless and mystical aesthetic. The imagery draws on mythological, Hermetic, astrological, and elemental symbolism, offering depth for study while remaining intuitive in practice.

At the heart of the Sealed Path Tarot is a unique five-element structure. Alongside the traditional four Minor Arcana suits, David Bergen introduces a fifth suit, Orbs, associated with Ether or Spirit, expanding the deck’s symbolic and energetic range. Each suit contains five Court cards, rather than the traditional four, exploring nuanced expressions of courage, wisdom, and personal evolution.

This design makes the deck remarkably versatile. It can be read as:

• A classic 78-card tarot deck

• An expanded 97-card tarot system

• A 25-card Court oracle, using the Court cards alone

The included 132-page illustrated guidebook offers in-depth interpretations of the Major Arcana, Pip cards, and Courts, along with keywords, reversed meanings, and eight unique card spreads to support both structured readings and intuitive exploration.

Printed on superior quality card stock and housed in a sturdy two-piece box, this is a deluxe tarot deck designed for long-term use, study, and contemplation.
