Meet the creator
I’m Lyn Thurman – tarot deck creator, oracle artist, and lifelong mystic.
With nearly 25 years of tarot experience and a growing collection of independently published decks, I now focus on creating divinatory tools that blend intuition with storytelling, symbolism, and a dash of rebellion. My decks often carry a touch of the unconventional – a space where hard truths meet whimsy, and the sacred mingles with the strange.
My journey into the mystical began in childhood, drawn to the unseen and the esoteric. Since then, I’ve walked a spiritual path rooted in witchcraft, shamanic practices, and the divine feminine. These threads weave through all my work, offering a grounded yet imaginative lens through which to explore the self and the unseen world.
Now based in the wild beauty of North Wales, I find daily inspiration in nature, folklore, forgotten places, and curious objects. Every deck I create is an invitation to deepen your connection with intuition, to question, and to wander the liminal spaces where insight often hides.
When I’m not immersed in creative work, I’m usually out exploring coastal paths, camera in hand and coffee nearby, always looking for the next spark of inspiration.
Thanks for stopping by. If you’re curious about the magic of tarot and oracle, or just enjoy a bit of soulful strangeness, you’re in the right place.
Creative Explorer
I resonate with the Alchemist and Creator archetypes. As an INFP (Mediator) in the Myers-Briggs typology, I often find myself weaving imagination and intuition into tangible creations.
Mostly Water, Little Fire
My astrological chart features a Pisces Sun, Cancer Moon, and Aquarius Rising—an elemental blend that fuels my introspective nature and creative pursuits.
Knot Untangler
I possess a peculiar patience for unravelling knots, whether in threads, chains, or metaphors. There’s a quiet satisfaction in bringing order to tangled things.
Perpetual Wanderer
I have an uncanny ability to get lost, even with a map. But I’ve come to embrace it—every wrong turn becomes a Lost Adventure, often leading somewhere far more interesting than the original destination.
Visual Storyteller
Photography has been a passion since I purchased my first camera at 11. I have a particular affinity for capturing the moods of seascapes and landscapes.
Lover of the Unusual
I’m endlessly drawn to the odd, the forgotten, and the slightly off-kilter. Curiosity cabinets, vintage curiosities, and strange little objects always catch my eye.
Ocean Admirer
The sea has always held a special place in my heart. Its rhythms and mysteries continue to inspire and soothe me.
London Roots
Though I reside in a coastal town in North Wales, the essence of London, my birthplace, remains an integral part of my identity.
