Deck Review: Patch Tarot

Blending ancient teachings with lived spirituality, Patch Tarot makes esoteric wisdom accessible for the rest of us. In the prismatic visual world of Patchman from Spirit Science, discover the Tarot through the profound symbolism of the Qabalah, alchemy, astrology, and more.

Patch Tarot is the result of extensive study and research into the foundational Tarot systems, including the Rider-Waite and Thoth, with roots tracing back to the Order of the Golden Dawn in 1888. Each card is carefully crafted by integrating these historical perspectives with deeper esoteric symbolism from Hermetics, alchemy, and Qabalah, creating a uniquely harmonious synthesis of wisdom and reflection. Every detail carries symbolic weight, whether subtly hidden or prominently displayed—from clothing and objects to the environment itself.

While readers may intuit their own meanings, the deck also includes “astral signatures” in the corners, offering key insights into planetary, zodiacal, elemental, and qabalistic connections, along with upright and reversed interpretations. Designed for both depth and accessibility, Patch Tarot delivers profoundly clear and accurate readings in every spread, standing apart from decks that may feel vague or difficult to interpret. Its unique balance of insight and playfulness makes Tarot readings both fun and deeply meaningful, with thousands of users attesting to its remarkable clarity and precision.

You can see the unboxing and complete flickthrough on TikTok or Youtube. I posted two spreads, a deck interview and the finding community spread, and a deck comparison.

Hi all! Welcome to the Wednesday Spread. As the LWB for Patch doesn't have any unique spreads, I'm using this one I came up with! I'm interested to see how it'll read. 

Different Decks, Same Question: Patch Tarot, Witch's Cat, RWS

As part of reviewing Patch Tarot, I thought I'd put it up against a couple of other decks. I've enjoyed using it in readings and spreads, and now I'm curious how it compares to decks you might be familiar with. So here we go. Three decks, three cards, three different approaches.

Happy Wednesday, all! Welcome to the Wednesday Spread. This week we're interviewing Patch Tarot, an interesting deck that's a fusion of RWS and Thoth style tarot. As a mostly RWS reader I'm finding this very interesting! I've done a couple of daily pulls but this is my first big spread, so I'm excited to see how it will read.

First Impressions: Patch Tarot

This version, simply titled Patch Tarot, unites everything that has come before into one complete and traditional 78-card deck — blending the timeless wisdom of the Tarot with the colorful, living spirit of the Spiritverse. It’s a harmonious fusion of the classic Thoth and Rider–Waite–Smith systems, expanded through the lenses of Qabalah, alchemy, and astrology — and brought to life through the artistry of Patchman.

Designed for both new readers and seasoned seekers alike, this edition of Patch Tarot is the culmination of years of refinement — a deck made to illuminate the path of the modern alchemical scholar.
