A deck of many voices
Nosotras Tarot turns the familiar journey toward women
Nosotras Tarot feels like opening an old family album and finding that every photograph has learned to dream. Elisa Riemer builds the cards from vintage figures, landscapes, animals, flowers, architecture, and flashes of impossible scale. The result is tender in one card and sharply political in the next, yet it always asks the same intimate question: whose story is being seen?
The 2019 complete edition contains 78 cards. Its Portuguese titles feminise much of the familiar tarot cast: A Louca, A Maga, A Imperadora, A Hierofante, A Diaba, Princesa, Cavaleira, Rainha, and Realeza. Paula Mariá Riemer is credited with the deck’s authorship, editing, and symbolic interpretation, while Elisa Riemer is credited for the images.
Card study · listening beneath the words
A Sacerdotisa keeps her knowing close
Between two pale columns, a poised Black woman meets us with a steady gaze. Her blue-and-white clothing carries the cool hush of water, while the small animal at her feet brings instinct into a scene shaped by ceremony and restraint.
As the High Priestess, she is not withholding an answer to be difficult; she is asking whether we have become quiet enough to hear it. Upright, I would read her as private wisdom, timing, and trust in what has not yet found words. In shadow, that silence can harden into secrecy or self-doubt. Beside an active card such as A Carruagem, she says: pause before you move, because the body may already know which road is honest.
How the collage art changes a reading
Collage lets several times exist in one picture. A Victorian dress can stand beneath a turquoise sky; a domestic room can open onto a wild landscape; an animal can become witness, warning, or companion. Those joins are not decoration. They show where an old role no longer fits the living woman inside it.
Begin with the detail that feels slightly out of place. Then return to the card’s traditional function and ask what that strange detail changes. A flower may soften a sword, a wall may make a cup feel lonely, and a tilted horizon may turn a confident card into a warning about balance.
Four-card moment
The Heroine Finds Her Own Name
Read from left to right: the invitation, the gift, the guiding light, and the larger self waiting beyond the old script.
Together they ask: What is calling me forward, which gift is ready to be used, where can I trust hope, and what fuller self is waiting to emerge?
Reading the feminine titles without flattening them
The deck’s feminine language is more than a grammatical costume. It changes the emotional temperature of the archetypes. A Maga can be skill without performance. A Imperadora and A Imperatriz invite us to notice different faces of authority, care, visibility, and embodied power. Even A Diaba can become a woman looking directly at the bargains that bind her.
You do not need to force every card into a single idea of womanhood. Let age, culture, body, posture, class, and setting complicate the meaning. In a spread, ask who has room to speak, who is being watched, and who is quietly rewriting the rules.
Card study · the structure gives way
A Torre makes upheaval physical
A booted leg rises beside a narrow tower while a barrel seems to fall from an impossible sky. Bright circular forms scatter across the pale blue field, giving the disruption an oddly playful edge even as the architecture loses its certainty.
The Tower still brings rupture, revelation, and the collapse of a false structure. Here, the scale feels personal: one body can become larger than the building meant to contain it. Upright, the card can free a reading from a role that has grown too small. In shadow, it warns against knocking everything down simply to feel powerful. With Ouros nearby, look for practical consequences; with Copas, listen for the emotion released when the wall finally cracks.
A simple way to begin with Nosotras Tarot
For your first week, draw one card and write three short lines: what you see, what the traditional card usually does, and what the image asks you to notice today. Keep the order simple. Observation first prevents a favourite theory from swallowing the picture; tradition keeps intuition from drifting away; the final line turns insight into something you can actually use.
The Portuguese titles become familiar quickly because the suit structures stay clear: Paus for fire and will, Copas for feeling, Espadas for thought and conflict, and Ouros for the material world. The courts move through Princesa, Cavaleira, Rainha, and Realeza.
Four-card moment
A Conversation Across Generations
These four courts can be read as the young spark, the moving heart, the discerning voice, and mature stewardship. Notice where each woman looks and what kind of power she carries.
Together they ask: Which spark needs encouragement, which feeling needs movement, which truth needs a clear voice, and what kind of stewardship will help the whole story mature?
Love, friendship, and belonging
In relationship readings, Nosotras Tarot is strongest when the question makes room for context. Instead of asking only whether someone will return, ask what story each person has inherited about closeness, freedom, and care. The collage backgrounds often reveal the atmosphere around the figures: open water, enclosing walls, cultivated gardens, or paths that disappear into distance.
When several cards show figures facing away from one another, name the distance before you name the outcome. When hands, cups, flowers, or shared landscapes repeat, look for the way affection is being offered. Nearby Swords can show the words that sharpen or clarify that bond.
Card study · hope with water on its skin
A Estrela restores faith through movement
A pale figure bends into luminous turquoise water while many-pointed stars hang above like bright paper cut-outs. The body is not posing on the shore; it is already inside the current, making hope feel lived rather than ornamental.
The Star traditionally returns trust after the Tower. Here, renewal arrives through participation: step into the water, tend what is thirsty, and let the nervous system discover that the sky has not fallen forever. Upright, she speaks of healing, openness, and a future worth feeding. In shadow, beautiful possibility can remain only a picture. Beside A Torre, she promises that the cleared space can become a garden; beside Espadas, she asks for one truthful thought that makes breathing easier.
Creative and shadow-work readings
This deck is wonderfully useful when a creative project has gone quiet. Pull one card for the image you keep showing the world, one for the part of the work that wants more freedom, and one for the smallest experiment that could bring it alive again. The surreal joins give the imagination somewhere to catch.
For shadow work, stay kind and specific. Ask what role is being protected, what it once helped you survive, and what a safer version of that strength could look like now. The deck can hold contradiction without making every difficult feeling into a monster.
Four-card moment
From Feeling to Shared Joy
The suit of Copas travels from the first overflowing feeling to companionship, memory, and a happiness large enough to be shared.
Together they ask: What feeling is beginning, where can it be shared, which memory still shapes the heart, and what would lasting joy look like in everyday life?
Who will love this deck—and who may not
Nosotras Tarot will suit readers who enjoy feminist art, found-image collage, culturally varied figures, Portuguese language, and cards that reward a second look. It is especially lovely for journaling, creative practice, identity work, and readings about the meeting point between personal choice and social expectation.
It may be less comfortable for someone who wants a near-copy of Rider–Waite–Smith scenes, instant English keywords, or a visually neutral deck. Some collages speak sideways rather than spelling out the traditional action, so a beginner may want the booklet or a trusted meaning guide nearby.
Four-card moment
Making the Vision Real
Ouros brings the dream down to earth: seed the work, protect the essentials, practise the craft, and decide what responsible abundance means.
Together they ask: What can I begin, what must I protect without gripping, which skill needs patient practice, and how can abundance become responsible care?
What to know before buying
Check the edition carefully. This review follows the complete 2019 78-card product, ISBN 978-6581187002. A later third edition is documented with 79 cards—78 traditional cards plus one extra Arcana—so a marketplace photo and count should agree before you order. The printed card titles are Portuguese, and the 2019 listing describes a trilingual booklet in Portuguese, English, and Spanish.
The deck’s soft cream borders and varied collage palette look gentle from a distance, but many images carry adult nudity and emotionally direct symbolism. That candour is part of its voice rather than a surprise flaw.
Final thoughts on Nosotras Tarot
Nosotras Tarot does not ask women to step neatly into tarot’s old costumes. It lets them alter the room, change the scale, stare back at the viewer, and carry several histories at once. That is why the deck can feel both dreamy and bracingly awake.
If these images make you curious, begin slowly. Let one card become a small world, then notice how the next card changes its weather. A deck this layered does not need to shout; it only needs enough attention for every voice in the picture to be heard.
