Introducing: the Mona Lisa Tarot

So here's my newest deck, an unexpected gift from someone in the tarot community.  She was getting rid of a few decks and this one caught my eye.  So this is the Mona Lisa tarot, by Mark McElroy and Paolo Martinello, who also did the artwork for the Universal Fantasy tarot, which is why I was drawn to it.  This deck is very different, but there are definitely story lines hidden in these cards.  The same characters pop up i different suits, in different life stages, and as I was going through the deck my imagination went wild!  I'm excited to put a few of those stories together. 

Major Arcana


Wands


Swords


Chalices


Pentacles



Introducing: the Radiant Rider-Waite Tarot

The Radiant Rider-Waite!  It doesn't really need much of an introduction. The coloring is different, but this is the imagery most people are probably familiar with.
