IN STORES SEPTEMBER 2024
The Tarot Deck from Choose Your Own Adventure is a new take on the traditional cards. Artist Brian Anderson (Murder at the Old Willow Boarding School) has created a diverse cast of teens to inhabit the classic Major and Minor Arcana figures. Our iconography is faithful to the famous Rider-Waite deck. Brian adds a new dimension to the images with his steampunk-inspired aesthetic.
What better place to look for guidance in making a choice than the CYOA Tarot Deck? A 128 page booklet aimed at the beginning student of Tarot by CYOA author and tarot practitioner Rana Tahir is included with the box. Great gift for both nostalgia fans, tweens, and teen audiences.

Tarot Reader: Raina Stone / Mamma Karma
September 24 from 7PM to 9PM EST
About Raina Stone: I grew up in rural Vermont, wandering through woods, exploring the nature around me. I quickly found the earth's energy calling me. There was magic in the hills of my youth, energy that poured forth like mana to be eaten with glory. I learned to use those resources to begin exploring my magic gifts. I started tarot readings at 12 yrs old and have grown and tuned my abilities to include other metaphysical services needed by individuals to reclaim their true inner selves. I studied crystals in California, Healing hand work in Pennsylvania and learned from a Chawafa (witch) in Morocco. I use my profound intuition to offer guidance to all seekers. I am a survivor of abuse and look to help others rise. Life can be amazingly beautiful when you learn to find your truest self. I am a safe space for all individuals looking to find their best selves.
