* No comments about the controversy between these and Solokid’s similar designs. Both are being carried by Murphy’s Magic, so if it has passed their scrutiny, I’m fine with it too.
* Also no discussion about this being a reprint. Kickstarter is normally very strict about no previously sold designs, so obviously they were satisfied with Bocopo’s first print in 2016, and allowed the Kickstarter campaign in 2017/
– Available editions:
1. Bicycle Constellations Capricornus First Print 2016.
* Misspelling or otherwise, this is now very much in demand among niche buyers who collect misprints & “flawed decks” on purpose. Please check availability before payment.

Story
When I was a kid, I was curious about the mystery of the sky. I often looked up at the sky and have a lot of questions about the galaxy. One summer, my grandfather asked me “Did you see the stars in the sky? That is Scorpio, the constellation which is your patron angel.” It was my first time to hear the story about constellation. This concept made a deep impression in my heart. I began to study about the history and story about different constellation. The inspiration of this series of deck is derived from this.
The constellation areas mostly had their origins in Western-traditional patterns of stars from which the constellations take their names. The constellation is generally considered as the essential component of astrology, and the cultural collision bring me the idea of designing one deck which is related with constellation. The Scorpio is the closest to me, and my initial design is only one deck of Scorpio, including tuck case, Ace of spades and jokers. With the modern elements of inspiration, the first edition of Scorpio deck came out soon. It received a great praise from my friends, and they think that is incredible. They encourage me to design a series of constellation decks. Therefore, I designed 12 decks of constellation. The patterns of the background are all my interpretation of these zodiac signs, and all designs are hand drawn. I carefully ensure that the size of the design is in accordance with the size of the decks. I hope you will like my designs. Every card is elaborate made and I hope to get your favor.
