About this deal

It might actually become one of my go-to reading decks for other people, because the imagery is clear, accessible, and super traditional without the artwork being boring. All that being said, I’ve made the Golden Universal my primary public reading deck, so evidently I am glad to have acquired it and love it to pieces. The artwork is digital collage - and you generally do have to look to see where the collage "happened". From the figure-eight to the crayfish, and the pomegranate to the tower, here’s where you begin to decode ancient symbols for future prediction, insight and affirmation in your daily life.

Several background elements (such as the pattern against which the Major Arcana are displayed) are also in direct homage to the Visconti-Sforza family. The internet has been no help in my attempts to translate the Renaissance Milanese dialect, but if it’s anything like French, I’d say it likely means something like “In the right” or “With a good right”. This is one of the most beautiful and carefully prepared tarot decks I have ever seen: truly a work of impeccable art!I am not a small-handed man, but my handspan is not wide enough to hold these cards end-to-end for a riffle shuffle. The Golden Tarot is a mix of the imagery of Visconti-Sforza, the Rider-Waite and some additions of its own. Judgement is a little prettier: it keeps the angel with trumpet over a cemetary, but here all we see are the headstones – noone is rising from the graves. Inspired by the beauty and mystery of the earliest tarot, the Visconti-Sforza, and the world-renowned imagery of the Rider Waite deck, The Golden Tarot makes the perfect gift for the dedicated tarot reader or those new to this ancient art. Although the ability to communicate with animals is not literally traditional to the Magician in tarot, I feel that it is a powerful and appropriate metaphor for the meaning of the card.

The cards have similarities to the general layout and major symbolic elements of Colman-Smith’s drawings, but have been re-interpreted in the totally different artistic style of late medieval and early Renaissance.

The worship of sacred images is characteristic of Orthodox churches and dates back to the origins of Christianity. The fact of the matter is, these source images are not originally Tarot cards, and some of them had to be manipulated pretty severely to fit the Tarot tradition.Etsy’s 100% renewable electricity commitment includes the electricity used by the data centres that host Etsy. The fabulous box in which the deck comes is a delight - and I am sure that here US Games has started a new phase in the care of box design.

While her deck remains true to the original Rider-Waite traditional symbolism, Kat Black offers accessible tarot interpretations that are fresh and welcoming. Of course, how could one know beforehand that delays upon delays would be expected (‘didn’t you do a reading’ I hear some say in cheek). Above are some of my favorite cards from the Majors (although it kind of looks like the Fool has a scrotum dangling from his chin, which strikes me as odd). I remember wishing, years ago, for a truly medieval deck that was illustrated with the same images as symbols as the Rider Waite Smith. The artwork is digital collage -- and you generally do have to look to see where the collage "happened".

The suits are Swords, representing the medieval ruling class, Wands, representing the peasant class, Cups, representing the clerical class, and Coins, representing the merchant class. but the difference which always arises between the light pixelled electronic version and the printed version can be so vast as to make one wonder how the two can be so different.
