Madame Laveau - The Soothsayer

The Odd Fellows: Madame Laveau The Soothsayer

Look into Madame Laveau’s crystal ball, then turn over a card. This tarot-inspired deck of playing cards brings the New Orleans Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau into the world of the Odd Fellows. Stockholm17 designer Lorenzo Gaggiotti gave each of the twelve court cards an identity drawn from the Major Arcana, a sign of the zodiac and a month of the year.

There’s a different symbolic language to read in every suit. The hearts chart the heavens, the diamonds depict spirits and angels, the clubs carry African pictograms and the spades bear alchemical symbols. All four suits retain the familiar structure of a poker deck.

The Blue Edition contains 56 poker-size cards printed by WJPC, with gold foil on the faces and backs and metallic tea-green gilding along the edges. The pearlized blue tuck box has cutouts, embossed and debossed details, and a holographic crystal ball. A reveal card is included.

The deck’s suits are each themed with a unique set of mystical or mysterious symbols:

• Hearts are adorned with astronomical symbols, representing celestial bodies.
• Diamonds feature celestial symbols, depicting spirits and angels.
• Clubs showcase the African Nsibibi pictograms.
• Spades are decorated with alchemical symbols, adding an esoteric touch to the deck.
