Welcome to the Quantum Tarot, A Tarot of the New Physics. If you’ve made it this far, it’s good to see you, and I hope you will join me on my journey through outer and inner space. The Quantum Tarot combines the revolutionary theories of 20th and 21st century physics with the traditional structure of a tarot deck. It uses vivid photographic imagery to illuminate the fascinating, complex world of physics, from quantum mechanics to Einstein's theories of relativity and superstring theory.The Quantum was published by Kunati in September 2008 and is available from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.ca. Conceived and written by me, Kay Stopforth, the deck was illustrated by Chris Butler using images from the Hubble Space Telescope and NASA.

Hello, Ms Stopforth. I'm trying to get in touch with you or Mr. Butler regarding the Quantum Tarot. A group of us on Aeclectic Tarot are doing primary deck reflections over the course of this year, and are posting our studies for mutual critique via websites. I've chosen to study the Quantum Tarot. I have tried to contact Kunati about posting card images, but have yet to hear back from them. It's been a few weeks. I was wondering if you or Chris Butler still have power to give permission to post images. After posting text only for several readings, I caved to pressure from fellow students trying to make head and tail of what I was saying, and posted some card images for reference, hoping that forgiveness would be easier to obtain than permission. I have posted a link to your website here. If you have a problem with my posting images of Quantum spreads, I will remove the images immediately.
Yours sincerely,

The Quantum Tarot explores the polar extremes of modern physics, the vast reaches of outer space, and the ultra-microscopic world of subatomic space through its visually striking cards. The deck aims to give poetic and symbolic expression to the dry theory of science. I am a college sophomore with a dual major in Physics and Mathematics @ University of California, Santa Barbara. By the way, i came across these excellent physics flash cards. Its also a great initiative by the FunnelBrain team. Amazing!!
