New symbols for a new tarot card deck: “Once separated from their context, symbols lose power and must be rediscovered”. KARL GUSTAV JUNG, Archetypes and the Unconscious.
The Macondo Tarot was freely inspired by the characters and situations of Gabriel García Márquez's masterpiece, One Hundred Years of Solitude, and by characters from the popular Colombian Caribbean tradition. These figures also maintain a relationship with the archetypes of the classic tarot and, through it, with European mythology and with some of the symbols of the esoteric tradition.
By the art of Caribbean alchemy and Macondian magic, four symbols inspired by the García Márquez’s novel were created that adjust in equivalence to the traditional suits of a Tarot deck and other traditional playing cards: yellow butterflies (cups and hearts), tears (swords and spades), golden fish (coins and diamonds), and tropical flowers (wands and clubs).
