The Wildwood Tarot – A Modern Classic Tarot of Nature, Myth & the Wheel of th

Step Into the Forest & Rediscover Tarot Through Nature’s Wisdom

Not all tarot comes from books… some comes from the trees.

The Wildwood Tarot by Mark Ryan & John Matthews, with artwork by Will Worthington, is a deeply immersive tarot deck rooted in pre-Celtic mythology, shamanic traditions, and the rhythms of the natural world.

Originally inspired by the now out-of-print Greenwood Tarot, this deck reawakens ancient archetypes through a nature-based lens—inviting you to step into a world where intuition, instinct, and ancestral wisdom guide the reading.

Here, the traditional tarot structure is reimagined:

• Wands become Bows
• Cups become Vessels
• Swords become Arrows
• Pentacles become Stones

The result is a system that feels alive—connected to the land, the seasons, and the deeper cycles of life.

This is tarot that doesn’t just speak… it breathes.
