I'm studying visual communication design and for my illustration class we need to create something that is informative. I got the idea to design a tarot card series featuring Greek goddesses, accompanied by a companion booklet. The booklet will explore the meaning of each card in both its upright and reversed positions, the mythology behind each goddess depicted, and the connection between her story and the card's symbolism. Through this project, I hope to make Greek mythology more accessible, whether for casual enthusiasts, those drawn to it out of curiosity, or practitioners of Wicca.
Howeverrrrrrrr, my professor informed me that depicting greek goddesses instead of having the traditional tarot illustrations and characters might be upsetting to some wiccans/ might disrespect the symbolic integrity of the cards.
Can anyone please inform me whether or not I need to change my idea/ know how continue this project without offending the wiccan community.
