Tarot and Divination
The Rider Waite tarot is good for both beginners and advanced readers alike. The imagery is simple and straightforward, yet still contains
a vast amount of symbolism in the details and backgrounds. The Rider Waite tarot has been influential in the development of more modern tarot sets, being
that it's subjects are close to original tarot sets, adding new symbolism from the teachings of modern esoteric practices.
Aleister Crowley's Thoth tarot deck is rich in symbolism and brilliant imagery. Under the instruction of Crowley, Freida Harris painted this
deck with symbols for many disciplines, including science and philosophy, and a strong influence of occult wisdoms.
The Haindl tarot deck is highly recommended for the advanced tarot reader as well as those interested in using it for meditation and
mysticism. It weaves together imagery from the Qabbalah, Norse Runes, the I Ching, and Native American wisdom among others. The wealth of symbols shown in a
hauntingly beautiful tarot set is great for many different uses.
The Aquarian Tarot was created by David Palladini staying true to original symbolism while incorporating modern symbols from the
Art Deco and Art Nouveau styles. A unique blend of colorful, emotive backgrounds and pale-faced, stoic characters. The scenes are more up-close than
traditional decks such as the Rider Wait tarot.
