The Men Plus Monsters and Celestial Fantasy Tarot Collection 2nd Edition Overview!

This is a big reprint campaign for a collection of 4 magickal tarot decks I made featuring mythology, astrology, masculine energies and monsters in a fantasy setting - perfect for those who love magic and colorful art!



ALL art and writing is completed for all 4 decks! If this campaign is fully funded, it will go to print and you will have your decks and guidebooks as soon as possible.

All decks contain some nudity (topless people, a butt here or there), but no explicit sexual content. All decks are meant for a 21+ years old mature adult audience due to the themes in some of the cards' meanings and some of the stories in the guidebooks. Please keep this in mind when backing this project :)


The decks' guidebooks will undergo a bonus round of editing before it all goes to print to address typos present in earlier editions of the books :)

This is an all or nothing campaign, meaning that all the decks included here will only be printed if the funding goal is surpassed! Crowdfunding is the only way I can print the decks, so if you want any of the decks, now is your chance to get them!!

Whether you're familiar with Tarot or not, the Men Plus Monsters Tarot Card Deck, the Terato Tarot Deck, the Divine Animal Tarot Deck, and the Celestial Animal Oracle Deck are luxurious sets of cards for anyone who loves handsome characters, mythological monsters, and colorfully classy art.

They are unique, insightful, mythical decks of monsters and men which also double as gorgeous and functional pieces of art!
Go on a journey through mythology and the fantastic with symbolically-accurate Rider-Waite style cards, more primal open-to-more-interpretation decks, and an original oracle deck featuring men, monsters, and more from the original world of Men Plus Monsters!

Each deck also comes with a vegan synthetic velvet bag that perfectly houses your cards and a full-color Guidebook with all the cards' meanings, how to use them, and bonus stories or descriptions about all of the characters featured in the cards.

These are very beginner-friendly decks that each come complete with a comprehensive Guidebook  that is perfect for Tarot users of all skill levels - Spread ideas, Card and Suit Meanings, A Brief History of Tarot, and more included!

- Shipping & Estimated Shipping Costs -

...Will be collected after the campaign is over! All items have been ordered and printed previously, so they will be calculated on a per-order basis for the entire pledge's package weight.

Estimated Shipping Costs: Most pledges shipping to the US should be around $5 - $10+, international can cost anywhere from $15 to $30+. Heavier orders will have a slightly higher shipping fee, but they will be calculated to the lowest price for both delivering the items and estimated cost of supplies per order.

Please see the Project FAQ regarding any further shipping questions and for the countries I will be shipping to.

- Environmental Commitments -

Long-lasting design
The decks I make are made of high quality cardstock with matte lamination, both designed for long-term ease of use and designed to sustain years of everyday wear and tear.

Sustainable Distribution
I use recycled materials where I can for the packages and minimize paper waste by only including what is necessary (i.e. no extraneous papers, no packing peanuts, etc) - without sacrificing the integrity or cleanliness of the packages.

- About the Artist / Creator -


I'm Aero, a non-binary asexual autistic BIPOC artist who loves drawing magic, men, monsters in a myriad of forms - most notably comic books and tarot cards! I am the sole creator and artist of my projects and do all the art and writing myself.

My hobbies include reading and playing video games - I like JRPGs the most!

I make NSFW and SFW art, including comics, tarot cards, art prints, vinyl stickers and much more. My artwork has been featured in professional and indie comics, anthologies, at conventions, and in my own independently published works.
Edit

- Thank You! -

Thank you for taking the time to look at my project! Crowdfunding has allowed my dream of making positive LGBTQA+ BIPOC-centric pieces of art to become a reality, and I'm happy that so many people have  expressed how important these creations are to them as well.

By backing these decks, you are contributing to a lot of peoples' happiness, by bringing to life unique pieces of art that celebrate diversity and variety in gender presentation and individual expression :)
