🪶 Collector’s Note
Astrocard’s is a distinctive and ambitious divination system developed in 1980 by Frédéric Maisonblanche, combining Tarot symbolism with astrological structures in a unified interpretive framework. Rather than a standard tarot deck, Astrocard’s functions as a complete esoteric toolkit, designed to explore personal cycles, destiny, and inner reflection through the interaction of Major Arcana and astrological houses.

The system stands out for its clarity, pedagogical approach, and depth, offering 288 predefined interpretations and a structured method based on the Golden Number. With its large-format cards, bold Marseille-inspired imagery, and strong astrological emphasis, Astrocard’s occupies a unique place among late 20th-century French divination systems.

🔹 Year: 1924 (original edition)
🔹 Card title: 20 Capricorne
🔹 Dimensions: 12.7 × 7.4 cm

🪶 Collector’s Note:
This card comes from the original 1924 Grimaud edition of Georges Muchery’s famous astrological divination system, one of the earliest attempts to merge astrology and cartomancy in early 20th-century France.
Each sign was represented by a striking symbolic animal — in this case, the Eagle of Capricorn, embodying ambition, endurance, and ascent through adversity.
Printed on thick textured stock with Grimaud’s distinct patterned back, these cards are now extremely scarce, especially as single surviving originals.

To combine two ancient arts — Tarot and Astrology — in a single divinatory tool: such is the inspired work of Ylonna, who created this 21-card oracle to unveil the influences of the signs, planets, and cosmic archetypes upon your destiny.

🔹 Author: Ylonna

🔹 Size: 6 × 9 cm

🪶 Collector’s Note
A charming French oracle merging planetary wisdom and cartomantic symbolism, illustrated in rich celestial blues and golds. Rare and little-known outside of France, Le Grand Cartomancien Ylonna occupies a fascinating place between traditional astrology and intuitive oracle practice — a gem for collectors of esoteric and astrological decks alike.

The deck consists of 22 gigantic Major Arcana cards (27 × 16 cm), inspired by the Tarot of Charles VI (circa 1392), traditionally attributed to Jacquemin Gringonneur. The artwork, scale, and context place this piece halfway between tarot history, advertising art, and medical ephemera.

The cards are near mint / like new, exceptionally well preserved for their age, and the original French booklet remains in very good condition. Such sets are almost never offered for sale, making this a true cornerstone piece for advanced collectors, institutions, or serious tarot historians.

A rare and elegant deck inspired by Igor Stravinsky’s ballet “Petrouchka”, created for the Ballets Russes of Serge de Diaghilev in 1911.
This deck was produced in 1988 by France Cartes (Grimaud) for the Bibliothèque Nationale – Opéra de Paris Collection, under official authorization from the SPADEM.

The artwork reproduces the original costume designs from the 1948 revival at the Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris. Each card is illustrated with characters from the ballet — graceful dancers, musicians, and theatrical figures — beautifully printed on a black and gold background, framed in refined Art Deco style.

🪶 Collector’s Note:

Dive into the haunting universe of H.R. Giger with this Baphomet: Tarot of the Underworld deck — a visionary collaboration between the Swiss surrealist and the esoteric author Akron. Giger, the Oscar-winning creator of Alien, channels his biomechanical art into the archetypes of the tarot, blending fear, eroticism, and transcendence into a single symbolic language.

This edition (Akron Edition GmbH, 2010) includes 23 large-format cards (approx. 9.5 x 14 cm) printed on heavy stock, accompanied by a 190-page English guidebook exploring “The Seven Seals of Baphomet.” Each card is a descent into the subconscious: a world of shadow, desire, and revelation.

🔹 Contents:

- 23 illustrated cards based on Giger’s original paintings
- Complete 190-page English booklet
- Original 2010 box (light wear visible, see photos)
- Condition: Cards like new

🪶 Collector’s Note:
A cult masterpiece of tarot history, Baphomet: Tarot of the Underworld stands as one of H.R. Giger’s most powerful visual statements. More than a divination tool, it’s a portal into his biomechanical mythos — where creation and destruction, light and shadow, merge.
Coveted by collectors for its rarity and its uncompromising aesthetic, this edition embodies the dark beauty and philosophical depth that made Giger legendary.
