✨ I’m happy to introduce the traditional patience game cards
“The Kyiv Sorceress” — a set of twenty square cards featuring forty symbolic halves 🃏🕯️

This is a reimagined and fully hand-redrawn edition of a classic Ukrainian patience game, brought to life in my own artistic style.
I’ve preserved the original structure and spirit — while giving it a new soul 🧡

The game is based on simple, intuitive images filled with life wisdom.
Each symbol carries meaning — it might be:
✨ a prediction
🗝 a piece of advice
⚠️ a warning
👉 or a gentle nudge toward the best course of action.

How does it work?
The deck consists of 20 cards, each showing four halves of different symbols.
Shuffle the cards and lay them out in four rows of five.
When two matching halves connect, the full symbol becomes part of your reading.
🧩 Some matches appear right away, others only after you rotate the cards.
This mechanic creates a layered reading, where symbols form a clear and detailed story.

What’s included:
— 20 cards with unique hand-drawn illustrations
— Size: 60 × 60 mm
— Thick matte cardstock (400 gsm)
— Custom box with an atlas ribbon closure
— Folded insert with short instructions (in English)
— On request: translation of the instructions in your native language (German, French, etc.)

The set will be wrapped with love in a style that matches “The Kyiv Sorceress” — a touch of old-world charm, warmth, and quiet mystery.

🖋 A personal note from the artist:
I’ve worked with the original “Kyiv Sorceress” patience game for over 15 years, and it remains the divination tool I feel closest to.
It has supported me through difficult moments and offered guidance in subtle yet powerful ways.

These patience cards are friendly — toward you and toward the world.
The readings always feel safe energetically. I’d even say: healing.

💛 I’m truly grateful for the chance to share such a gentle yet profound divination tool with the world.
