You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

Morning tarot and oracle reading. I’ve been struck at how well the Lubanko Tarot works with the Citadel Oracle especially— as well as the Black Bird Oracle and the Seasons of the Witch: Imbolc Oracle. The moods just seem to talk well to one another, especially in this darkening mythic season.

the hubris I'm looking at may actually force my method, I may have to go back and forth between traditional and digital because the size of the pieces and the scaffolding may overrun my computer...so I might have to start traditional and finish digital for the printing aspect 👻

if you've ever looked at the devil and thought, "would" and you like size difference, I guess look forward to my little local market booth coming up

I should mention that this is a print about sitting on the devil's lap and that there is noticeable size difference, I think that will give some context to the Hell Yeah

little moment of joy today troubleshooting prints with a very nice person in customer service where we were messing with the colors to try to get the holographic foil to show up right and both of us were trying so hard not to say "haha hell yeah" and be kind and professional but the energy was Felt

"can't you just do an oracle and leave the interpretation up to the viewer with no writing or structural component" great question! no.

saltmarsh art @thesaltmarsh.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
genuinely part of my process for a project combining art and writing is that I have to dig until I find something deep that hurts and get a little choked up to really write about, like I have to find the real substance before I go, and I found it today during freewriting so I guess that's good

I've made a helpful graphic of what is in the Lubanko Tarot! A lot of folks wanted to know what the cards were like all laid out, so I made a graphic with all of the paintings, plus some book and card details! Also updated the website with more deck pictures and reviews. www.emilylubanko.com#/tarot/
Lubanko Tarot image that shows what the deck is comprised of: the box art, the 244-pg full-color guidebook, 80 cards with borderless art and black edges, and fully-illustrated cards – no pips, all full narrative illustrations for coherent and rich readings. You can also see the design on the back of the cardsAtmospheric image of the deck box and some cards scattered about it. This is from the Llewellyn order page!

Commenting because this looks amazing, and I want to see it in the world, and also because this is literally a perfect example of How To Balance Ink And Colors Perfectly for readability and beauty. Absolutely gorgeous work and it reads so well, good luck and I hope it gets picked up!
