And we woke up knowing what to do.
Before Gods and Monsters had names, Tiamat moved through the primordial waters: mother of chaos, creatrix of monsters, the first body. She was split open so that heaven and earth could exist.
The Mawing Chasm lives in that wound.

FAQ
Is it a complete tarot deck?
Yes, 78 cards, based on the Qliphothic Tree of Death.
In place of the Major Arcana stand the Tunnels of Set, archetypal passages into realms and liminal spaces. The Minor Arcana return to the phenomenal world: numbered cards show processes of form, expression and distortion, court cards reveal presences.
The four suits become four creatures from our dreams, images of the unconscious: Fire — Ravens, Air — Serpents, Water — Sea Creatures, Earth — Wolves.
Who is this deck for?
Advanced readers and magicians, collectors of rare tarot and art, and those just beginning to shape their own practice of divination and witchcraft. Made for chaos ritual magic, transliminal meditation and astral work.
How do the grimoires guide me?
The Lesser Chthonic Grimoire (in the box) holds everything you need, yet no flat meanings, only keys for finding your own answers.
For the Tunnels of Set (Major Arcana): Ilu Dao — flow · Shadow — loss · Metamorphosis — transformation.
For the Minor Arcana: Ilu Dao — flow · Manifestation — realization · Distortion — fracture.
The Greater Chthonic Grimoire (online and in print) offers correspondences for magical practice, altar work and theurgy, reflections, one practical ritual, six spreads, and the sources the deck grew from.
What language are the grimoires in?
Both grimoires are in English.
How many copies exist?
