Deck review: The Sugar Skull Tarot deck by David A Ross and Carolina Martinez

This light-hearted, beautifully illustrated deck and guidebook brings the spiritual mysticism of sugar skulls to a fresh interpretation of each of the major and minor arcana to help you hone your intuition.

Sugar skulls, or calaveras, are traditionally made by hand to celebrate the Mexican celebration of Day of the Dead, or Dia de Muertos. Colorful and lovingly crafted, they are offerings for loved ones who have passed into the spirit realm.

The sugar skulls depicted throughout this deck are there to remind us of our spiritual journey and help us reach our full potential. Just as the Fool progresses throughout the entirety of the Major Arcana, we all have our own personal journeys that are represented through the tarot.

Whether it’s the Magician shooting the sugar skull bullseye, the High Priestess seeing her reflection in the water (thus revealing her inner truth in the form of a sugar skull), or the Fool feeling confident that he will create and manifest the perfect sugar skull by the time he finishes his journey, we all have an unrealized version of our true potential. The Sugar Skull Tarot Deck and Guidebook offers a refreshing new take on a timeless tradition and is the perfect tool to recognize the inner potential inside each of us. Let the brightly colored illustrations offer you all the inspiration you need to be the best person you can truly be so you can present a more accurate representation of yourself—confident, magical, and ready to give and receive love—to the world.

You can see the unboxing on Tiktok or Youtube and the silent flickthrough on Tiktok or Youtube. I posted two spreads, the interview spread and the Sugar Skull spread.

Wednesday Spread: The Sugar Skull Spread

Welcome to the Wednesday spread! We're still working with the Sugar Skull tarot deck and, as you might be able to tell from the title, this spread was designed by the deck author to use with it. As always I'm doing this blind, one card at a time, so let's see what we come up with! I'm writing this with 'I' and 'me' but feel free to consider it in terms of your own life.

Wednesday Spread: Interview spread, Sugar Skull Tarot deck

Welcome to the Wednesday spread! This deck is one I've had for a while, but not used recently; when I reviewed it I was very early in my tarot journey, and I thought it would be interesting to go back to it and see how my impressions have changed with practise.

This is the Sugar Skull Tarot deck from Simon & Schuster. As always, I found this spread, I didn't invent it, but I'd love to hear from you if you did!
