The Gospatric Map Bennog Tarot — A Celtic Divination Deck
A 78‑card digital tarot deck rooted in the ancient Celtic spirit of Cumbria and Wales, woven with myth, ancestral devotion, and the lost romance of the Old North.
A Deck Born of Legend
The Bennog Tarot draws its soul from Gospatric Map Bennog, a 12th‑century Cumbric‑speaking border lord who held the sacred territory of Catterlen — meaning “throne.” A gentle warrior caught between kingdoms, he was devoted to his land, his people, and his dark‑haired lass.
Their love story breathes through every card.
Symbolism of the Old North
- The Red Kite — the great soaring bird of Wales, symbol of vision, freedom, and spiritual sight
- Ravens — messengers between worlds
- Skull Drinking Cups — honoring the Celtic tradition of embracing life and death as one sacred cycle
- Carved Stones — ancient markers of craft, wealth, and the material world
The Four Suits

- Cauldrons (Cups) — Water, emotion, intuition, love; featuring ceremonial skull cups
