The Aviator’s Arcana – Final 48 Hours ✈️
about 1 month ago
– Mon, Mar 02, 2026 at 06:23:41 AM
We’re now in the final 48 hours of The Aviator’s Arcana campaign.
One important detail to highlight as we approach the end: only 500 copies of this deck will be printed. That makes this one of the smaller print runs we’ve produced for a tarot deck.
Thank you again to everyone who has supported the project so far. The campaign funded within the first 48 hours and was later selected by Kickstarter as a “Project We Love.” We’re incredibly grateful for the enthusiasm and support the deck has received.
As we move into the final stretch, we also want to confirm the final production details.
Every copy of The Aviator’s Arcana will now include:
• A magnetic tarot box
• A full tarot guidebook
This brings the deck up to the same production standards as Steamboat Arcana 1928 and our other recent releases.
If you’ve been thinking about joining the campaign, this is the final opportunity to pledge before the campaign closes.

More soon,

Hello everyone,
We’ve officially reached the one-week mark since launching The Aviator’s Arcana, and we wanted to take a moment to thank all of you who helped this campaign take flight so quickly.
The deck was fully funded in just 48 hours, and shortly after launch Kickstarter selected the project as a “Project We Love.” That recognition means a great deal to us and reflects the enthusiasm this community continues to bring to every campaign we create.
We’re incredibly grateful for the support, the messages, and the excitement surrounding the deck so far.

Where We Are Now
As with most campaigns, the middle stretch tends to settle into a quieter cruising altitude after the energy of launch week.
We’re continuing to see new backers come in each day, and we’re steadily working our way toward the first stretch goal. This phase is always where community support makes the biggest impact.
If you’ve been enjoying the campaign, sharing the project with friends, fellow readers, or collector groups really does help expand its reach. Word of mouth has always been one of the biggest drivers behind these decks.
Thank you again for helping The Aviator’s Arcana get off the ground so quickly. We’re honored to have you aboard for the journey.
More soon,
Mark

48 Hours Left to Begin Your Yearly Ritual 🎃🌙💀🎶 The Skeleton Dance Arcana Tarot Deck
5 months ago
– Sun, Oct 26, 2025 at 07:24:53 AM
Picture the start of October. The air cools, the light softens, and you reach for a familiar ritual — the deck that begins your season.
The Skeleton Dance Arcana was created for that moment. It is a tarot you can return to year after year, a companion that grows richer with every reading and every fall that passes.
You can use it all year for reflection, then transform it each fall into a Halloween edition by swapping in the bonus cards. The deck changes with the season but always feels like home — something to look forward to, something that becomes part of your yearly rhythm.
Here’s what we’ve built for you:
Halloween Bonus Cards — six alternate cards that fill your readings with pumpkins, candlelight, and October spirit
Bronze Divination Coin — a vintage keepsake that adds ritual and reflection
Dark Edge Finish — a refined, gothic touch that deepens the mood
Skeleton Dance Keychain — a reminder that the dance never really ends
Every piece of this deck was crafted to last. The art is original, inspired by early animation, and designed to flow together in a single story. The cards feel alive in your hands, printed on premium stock with a magnetic box sturdy enough to take off the shelf each October for years to come.
Now we’re in the final 48 hours. This is your moment to join the tradition and claim the full edition before it’s gone. Be part of the celebration, and make it something you’ll look forward to every fall.
Warm regards,
Mark
Steamboat Legends
