which queer tarot deck are you? quiz & resources

hello, friends! if you follow me on instagram you might've seen the poll in my stories collecting queer tarot decks - specifically, decks made by queer artists and creators.

and if you were wondering what i was working on, the wait is over: i've been slowly compiling a list of queer tarot decks to serve as a jumping off point for anyone that is craving more representation in their readings: by us and for us. in addition to putting together this resource, i also wrote this fun quiz for autostraddle: which queer tarot deck are you? which you can take right now!

i personally identify as queer/bisexual and non-binary/genderqueer (still figuring out my exact language for this but my pronouns are she/they), and proudly use the word queer as a broad collective term for anyone in the LGBTQIA+ community. queer definitively includes trans, non-binary, tw0-spirit, intersex, and gender non-conforming folks of all stripes, as well as anyone on the asexual or aromantic spectrum. (if you feel queer, you're queer - welcome to the family. and if you don't support trans people, kindly fuck off.)

putting together this list has been a labor of love, one that i hope brings you joy, inspiration, and a sense of community. queer people are amazing, and we deserve to see ourselves represented in our magical objects, spiritual practices, and everyday imagery.

please note that the following list is simply a jumping off point, based mainly on decks that i personally have worked with and creators that are publicly out as queer. this is absolutely not a definitive or complete list (there are literally thousands of tarot decks out there! what a time to be alive!), but is a great place to start if you're looking for some queer-created, 3am.tarot-approved decks to add to your collection.

i will continue to update this list as i learn more, and as more queer decks make their way into the world. if you have a deck that i should add to this list, check out the form at the bottom of this post.

i'm slowly on the mend after having covid last week, but you can still work with me by signing up for my new class (written before i got sick, thank all the goddesses)! i'll also be sharing a sneak preview of my book, finding the fool, with gold subscribers in the month of february, so if you aren't a paid subscriber and have been thinking about signing up, now is a great time to do so.

thank you for reading!
