Housewives Tarot
The retro-style ‘Housewives Tarot’ designed by Paul Kepple & Jude Buffum, revealing the hidden secrets of domestic empowerment in a light-hearted and humorous way, was published by Quirk Books in 2004. The cards feature 1950s iconography and perfectly capture that era, making the whole deck a somewhat refreshing relief from the usual ‘occultist’ allegories. If you're of a certain age maybe this evokes fond nostalia, but perhaps a bit condescending towards women in today's age of equality and liberation!
