Tarot Coloring page by Alexis E. Thomas. I used only shades of Blue-violet
Coloring tarot cards, especially iconic ones like The Moon (XVIII), offers a unique way to connect with the symbolism and archetypes these cards represent. Using shades of blue-violet can enhance the mystical and calming qualities of The Moon card, which traditionally conveys intuition, dreams, and the subconscious mind. In my personal experience, focusing on a limited color palette such as blue-violet tones helps maintain consistency and mood throughout the artwork while deepening the meditative aspect of coloring. When working with adult coloring books and detailed tarot illustrations, materials like Ohuhu and Prismacolor markers are excellent choices. Ohuhu markers provide smooth blending and vibrant saturation, while Prismacolor pencils add fine detailing and shading possibilities. Combining these tools can bring out subtle contrasts and depth in the coloring page, making the card visually captivating and personalized. I recommend starting with light layers and gradually intensifying the hue to avoid oversaturation, especially in areas like the moon and surrounding landscape. Pay attention to the card’s imagery, such as the moon shapes, animals, and water – enhancing these details with blue-violet shades can evoke calmness and mystery. Engaging in tarot card coloring not only boosts creativity but also serves as a mindful practice. It allows time for reflection on the card's meaning and personal symbolism, creating a deeper connection beyond conventional tarot reading.
