The Motherpeace Round Tarot deck is a co-creation of Karen Vogel and Vicki Noble. One night in their home in 1978, within a year of being given their first tarot deck, they were taken by surprise when Karen felt the room literally tilt, and Vicki proceeded to have a life- changing vision of Goddess energy and transmission of ancient wisdom. They soon began drawing the Motherpeace deck based on the traditional tarot system with ancient images from goddess-centered cultures throughout the world.

The 78 cards in this round tarot deck are powerful, evocative images, using 30,000 years of symbols.

Karen Vogel is a renowned intuitive who is widely known as co-creator of the Motherpeace Tarot deck and as a tarot reader, teacher and writer as well as an extraordinary artist. Karen is a rogue scholar — known for her innovative thinking in the field of anthropology and natural history. She has a degree in anthropology and a background in women’s studies, art and shamanism. She grew up in New York City but fell in love with the wild places of the western North America as a teenager. She’s lived there ever since and explored many places in the intermountain and far west. She lives in rural west Sonoma County, California.

Vicki Noble is a radical feminist healer, author, independent scholar and wisdom teacher. Born in 1947 and raised in Iowa, she awakened to the Goddess and Women’s Spirituality on her arrival in Berkeley, CA in 1976. Through a shamanic healing crisis, she opened psychically to the healing, art, yoga and divination processes that led to the creation of the Motherpeace Tarot images. Since then she has written numerous books, including Motherpeace (1983), Shakti Woman (1991), Ritual and Practice with the Motherpeace Tarot (1998/2003), and the Double Goddess (2003). With Miriam Dexter, she recently co-edited an anthology, Foremothers of the Women’s Spirituality Movement: Elders and Visionaries (2015).
