The Ashe Alma Tarot Bible

By Victória Cortez

You are not half of anything.

The Ashe Alma Tarot Bible is the official companion guide to the 78-card Ashe Alma deck - the first tarot built entirely from within the Black spiritual tradition. Not inspired by it. Not borrowing from it. Built of it.

The Major Arcana maps to the Orishas, the Lwa, and the spiritual forces of the African diaspora. The Minor Arcana speaks through four suits rooted in rootwork and ancestral wisdom: Staffs (fire, vision, willpower), Machetes (truth, strategy, justice), Calabashes (emotion, intuition, spirit), and Cowries (resources, legacy, the physical world).

Threaded through every card are three voices: The Spirit (an Orisha or Lwa), The Witness (a Catholic mystic who confirmed what the African traditions have always known), and The Ancestor (a historical Black American figure who lived the card's energy in real life).

Inside this guide you will find: Full card meanings and ritual practices for all 78 cardsThe 40-Day Soul Journey - a continuous theological arc across Cards XIII through XX mapping the soul's passage after death, drawn from Yoruba, Haitian Vodou, Hoodoo, and Catholic mystical traditionFour original spreads: The Crossroads (3 cards), The Three-Layer (3 cards), The 40-Day (5 cards), and The Full Arc (8 cards)Rituals and practices you can do right now - no altar required, no initiation required

This deck was created for the ones who grew up spiritually split - ni de aquí, ni de allá - and always knew that the Divine doesn't honor the borders human institutions draw around it.

For the Blessed and Highly Favored.
