Tarot of an Alchemical Conscience

Created and written by Secret Saturn

One ordinary conscience. A labyrinth of gods, shadows, wisdom, love—and the long road home.

A tarot gallery and living Codex inspired by the journey from imagination to experience, and from extraordinary dreams back into ordinary life.

The Fool descends through the labyrinth, encountering the mysteries of conscience, power, duality and the unconscious.

∞ ⟶ 0

The Return

The witness leaves the alchemical wedding with a book—not a throne—and becomes a magician of ordinary, conscientious creation.

A LITTLE GAME OF CHANCE

Draw a card

A simple invitation to reflect—not an oracle, and not a forecast of the future. The reader remains free to make their own meaning.

THE FOUNDING IDEA

A story told by one conscience.

The original poem, Dream of an Anonymous Conscience, tells of an ordinary traveler who enters a labyrinth of myth, uncertainty and transformation—and returns to share a story. The deck grows from that creative premise.

The Codex draws connections among traditional tarot, Jungian psychology, alchemy, comparative mythology and the artist's original fictional world. Historical associations and original interpretations are not presented as interchangeable, and the cards do not claim to predict events.

“The dream can remain magnificent. The waking world retains its freedom.”

THE AUTHOR

Secret Saturn

Secret Saturn is the pen name of the storyteller and creative director behind Tarot of an Alchemical Conscience. The collection draws on an original poem, Jungian and alchemical symbolism, comparative mythology and a playful journey through the tarot. The illustrations were developed with generative AI assistance; the stories and selection of symbols are an evolving creative work.

The mythology is offered as art and reflection, not a claim of supernatural revelation or a prediction of anyone’s future.
