Playing Marseille bridges the gap between two of the oldest European card traditions, the French-suited playing card and the Tarot de Marseille, in a single 78-card deck. Ryan Edward’s practical reading system is rooted in traditional cartomancy methods rather than esoteric symbolism, making it accessible to anyone familiar with playing-card fortune telling while remaining useful for tarot readers who want a different angle on the pips. The 56-page guidebook walks through card meanings, keywords, sample readings, and instructions for working with the Marseille through the lens of playing-card tradition.
Ryan Edward is an artist from St. Louis, Missouri, who works at the intersection of design and magic. He is also the creator of Maybe Lenormand, the sister deck to Playing Marseille.
