Unlock the fusion of Eastern spirituality and Western Tarot wisdom with this masterful creation, years in the making, which offers a tapestry of teachings and transformative insights.

The Vedas derive from the ancient Indo-Aryan culture of the Indian Subcontinent and are the oldest scriptures of Hinduism dating from the 15th to the 5th centuries BCE. Composed in Vedic Sanskrit and believed to be of divine origin, they contain the philosophies, hymns and guidance on ritual for priests of Vedic religion who kept and shared the knowledge.

With 81 striking cards and a comprehensive 288-page color guidebook, “The Vedic Tarot” invites you to discover the Tarot’s connection to the Vedas, Vedic Sanskrit, Irish Ogham Tree Alphabet, Hebrew letters and musical notes and instruments.

About the Creator:

DWINA MURPHY-GIBB

Dwina Murphy-Gibb, author, artist and playwright, was born in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland, where she was educated. She later attended Hornsey Art College in England. Throughout her childhood, Dwina won yearly art competitions, and her first exhibition was held at 14 years old.

Her art has been exhibited at the Jonathan Poole Gallery in Woodstock, Oxfordshire. She illustrated Sappho of Lesbos: The Poems, translated by Terence DuQuesne (1990). Dwina was cofounder of the Yeats Club, which organized poetry competitions and published Celtic Dawn, an international literary magazine.

She has a lifelong interest in ancient Irish history and mythology, comparative religions, esoteric studies, colloquial dialogues, and social politics. She is Patroness of the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids (OBOD), and supports earth conservation and clean-water action. Dwina has studied different types of yoga over many years, visiting Japan and India and in particular practicing Raja Yoga meditation with the Brahma Kumaris.

Dwina has written and performed her poetry and the dialogues of the Gabby Aggies for a one-woman show at the Irish Arts Centre theater in New York; at Irish festivals in the USA; for ManxRadio; for radio in Ireland, the UK, and Australia; and for private literary events. Her play Last Confessions of a Scallywag was successful at Sonning Theatre, and she has been the producer and coproducer of several films.

Dwina is currently writing a series of Regency spy novels. She has always been interested in peaceful changes for the better. The Murphy family remains in Ireland, and Dwina resides in Oxfordshire. She was married to the late Robin Gibb of Bee Gees fame and is mother of their son Robin-John Gibb, composer and singer.

TESTIMONIALS:

“An extraordinarily original vision that carries tarot into a wholly new direction. A feast of colour and some of the most exciting images since Pamela Colman Smith.”

- John Matthews

Creator of The Byzantine Tarot and many more

“A powerful, eclectic and enlightening divination tool, drawing from rich and profound ancient cultural sources and steeped in the traditions of healing, musical vibrational frequencies and positive, universal creative forces. Dwina Murphy-Gibb effortlessly strode across this cultural and philosophical divide with grace, clarity, wisdom and blazing artistic flair!”

- Mark Ryan

Co-author of The Wildwood Tarot and The Sherwood Oracle

“Dwina Murphy Gibb’s tarot is sumptuous and delights as 80 individual pieces of art too. Every card will feed your senses and the multitude of images in each one means that however familiar you become with them, there will always be elements to add interest to every reading. The colours are rich, and the figures really do have an otherworldliness about them.They are all gracious and alert, seeing, listening, and responding to the questions asked of them and what gives them such authority is the rich world of mythology they represent. These cards have managed to capture oral traditions so our subconscious minds can use them as active tools in our lives. There is a depth and breadth of knowledge and profound understanding that has come from a lifetime enjoyed.”
