Disney Princess Tarot Cards Divine Magic

Art nouveau, Disney princesses, and tarot cards might seem like an unlikely combination, but artist ML “Memo”  Maladrino makes magic happen when she combines the three into unforgettable fan art.

Memo’s Princesses Tarot Deck began with Princess Jasmine as The Chariot in a burst of late night inspiration, she said on Instagram. “I’m planning to make one card from the Major Arcana for each princess according to the meaning of the tarot,” she wrote in the caption.

Memo is putting a lot of thought into which princess to place on each card. Her clean, colorful style not only captures each princess’s personality and feels pure Disney, but also evokes strength and intensity. These princesses don’t need any prince to come to their rescue.

Tarot card VIII: Strength ⚡️this tarot views strength mostly as strength of character in difficult situations, and I couldn’t think of anybody better suited to embody the concept than Mulan?? I remember I got the tape of this movie for my 9th birthday and I watched it so much the film is literally ruined in parts! To me it was amazing that there was a movie that was telling me it was ok to break all the rules and be a hero even if you were a girl, as long as you were resilient, brave and strong enough to believe you could do it. I’m ever so thankful to @disneyanimation @pumbaaguy and Barry Cook for bringing this story to life ? Which Disney movie affected you the most?

Tarot XIII: Death?well, this card’s character choice pretty much explains itself I think… I decided to go with a much stronger colour difference for the background to emphasize its meaning, although it should be said that this isn’t a bad tarot, on the contrary: it usually signifies the end of a relationship or interest, and increased self-awareness ? next up, do you wanna see Esmeralda or Tiana?

Memo is also including characters outside of the typical Disney Princess movies, like a gorgeous Giselle from Enchanted and Esmeralda from The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Vanellope also joined the tarot card ranks, but we can all agree that she’s a real Disney Princess. (Her card in particular feels especially mystical.)

Tarot IX: The Hermit ? many have asked which card I would pair with Vanellope and I think The Hermits fits her well, especially considering her character arc in Ralph Breaks the Internet… this card signifies that a period of introspection is needed, which is exactly what Vanellope feels she has to do in order to grow: getting away from Sugar Rush and following her own path for a while. This kind of self-reflection is a very important part of everybody’s life from time to time, even if sometimes it’s a bit painful! Have you ever had to get away from everything to understand what you really wanted?
