We’re Calling It — “Tarotween” Is the Fall Decor Trend You’re About to See Everywhere
One of this year’s biggest Halloween trends is in the cards … literally. With Summerween in full swing, we’re just beginning to get a glimpse of what’s to come this spooky season — and, as Anthropologie’s recent dinnerware collection from Ex-Libris Paris has confirmed, this year’s Halloween is going to be all about the mystical and magical world of Tarot, and I’m calling it “Tarotween.”
What Is “Tarotween”?
“Tarotween” decor is inspired, of course, by the Tarot deck: a set of 78 illustrated cards used for divination. Tarot is an ancient art used by many to gain insight into the future, but according to Tarot.com, the practice is far more nuanced than that. Many people turn to Tarot readings as a therapeutic resource or gain deeper insight into a current personal situation. Even if you’ve never heard of Tarot, you may recognize some of the iconography as symbols of mysticism, personal goals, or archetypal energies.
What I love about the Tarotween trend is that — just like the cards themselves — there are so many ways to interpret it. You can go with a subtle sun, moon, and stars theme to channel an astrological vibe, or lean fully into the world of Tarot with nods to the iconic Major and Minor Arcana motifs for a more spiritual feel. Tarot decor is also great for those who are already feeling the itch to decorate but don’t want to go full pumpkin yet, since celestial decor is versatile enough to keep up year-round.
