Inspiring Alien Tarot Limited Editions are retiring

Almost 7 years ago I published my own deck creation, Inspiring Alien Tarot. I started out this journey with my 1st Limited Edition, prepared to get 100 copies printed out.

Now, at the latter end of 2023, more than 7 years from the initial showing of this deck at my art school’s graduation exhibition, I’m preparing to wrap up this part of the book in the tales of the Inspiring Alien Tarot Universe. While this does mean that the original plan of 100 copies will be cut down in numbers, it doesn’t mean that the entire story is ending, nor does it mean that it’s ending badly or bitterly.

This deck received many compliments along its journey. By those who received it in their collection, it has been much loved.

Not only has the deck received compliments, so have I as the artist and the creator. That’s something that I don’t take for granted, and am extremely grateful for and blessed to receive.

It is wonderful, that the feeling is mutual. That this deck is giving its owners so much joy and helps each of us on this path.

One of the intentions of the creation of this deck was to help others experience similar connection to their cosmic origins and colorful souls, like I had been, as I stepped on the starseed path back in the day. Helping others connect to their star families and star guides, and experience deep healing by using tarot as a tool to do so.

Of course I also had my own preferences for tarot cards, and I wanted them printed onto paper. I wanted to create a deck that I would use; a colorful, bright, vibrant alien scifi themed tarot deck.

So that’s what I did, and I’m happy that I did. It truly is one of a kind on the market. Not just because it has my handcrafted style in the imagery, but also because it’s unique in the way it’s put together. That’s why this deck has longevity, even after this Limited Edition has been put on the shelf (pun intended?)

So, why is the Limited Edition being retired and not sold anymore in the coming year?

This deck has been out for almost 7 years. That’s a long time for not just a creation like this to be out, but for a person to go through their own cycles and journeys.

Those that are familiar with my work, know that I’m a spiritual teacher by nature.

When we shift spiritually, so does our life, so does our business, so does our everything.

Therefore, after I created the Infinite Edition of this deck, I’ve slowly started to drift away from this new one. The new energy of the Infinite Edition just fits better, and not only does it fit, the way I’ve set it up business wise is better for my energy, it’s more aligned to my soul and spirit. I created the Infinite Edition to make sure it can get in the hands of more people who want it, as well as to make the process of selling more streamlined.

At first it was alright, but over time the stretch to get myself to put this old edition out there has just been bigger and bigger, the momentum has slowed down. Part of this is the fact that I have to have certain amount of time and space for this specific edition. Each box gets a signature, numbering and a hand crafted decoration to the box.

There’s a certain amount of time and action to be done on the ordering and shipping part as well. This is another thing that takes money, therefore contributing to pricing, and usually the money in one way or another goes right back into business when I receive it – either printing more copies or other parts of the business. I’ve found myself drifting away from this way of organising my world; I know further down the line I will no longer ship from my home, might not even ship physical products to begin with.

That said I still enjoy doing work by hand. It just has to evolve at this point. To be frank, I’ve been a lot more focused on the digital side of things, and that has been a part of my current process. That has made me miss doing things by hand, and that was a part of the reason I still kept on selling this version, even though I’ve been feeling the energy shift towards letting it go. But there are more, and different things to be done… time wise, things have to evolve.

Growth is a beautiful thing, isn’t it?

This deck evolved from an art school project into an independently published product and even has a book companion, which took me a good couple of years to write as I was getting started with this business thingy.

It was evolving with me, and now it’s time to let this first chapter close.

With great gratitude and honor towards each person who ever received one of these spaceships, as I liked to call them, I’m allowing for the Limited Edition Inspiring Alien Tarot to retire and making more room for more things in my schedule, mind, space and everything, that it may potentially occupy.

I honor my creation, and allow it to expand to it’s best direction, and in this time and journey it is the Infinite Edition and anything else that may be springing forth from this artwork collection. Because that’s what it is – a tiny collection of artwork. And I made sure to treat it as such for the time it existed.

Thank you for being a part of receiving and seeing this creation bloom.

You can find the Limited Edition until the end of December 31st on my bigcartel shop, and use a limited time coupon LASTCHANCE777 until the end of that day, one minute before midnight.

After that, we will say good bye to this special, one of a kind spacecraft. Who knows, maybe there are other spaceships in the future…
