The Angel Tarot is a deck of Tarot cards created by occultist Travis McHenry. Like its companion deck, the Occult Tarot, the Angel Tarot was highly influential among the esoteric and metaphysical community for its adherence to Kabbalistic teachings and its depiction of angels as more than just humans with wings. To research the deck, he traveled to the Arsenal Library (Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal) in Paris, France and examined three grimoires of black magic. These handwritten manuscripts were previously unpublished, and contained the oldest-known source of the seals used to summon specific angels. Travis photographed these seals and copied other information in the books, before returning to the United States, where he created the deck.
