Oops. I’m so embarrassed.

My mistake.  The fool picture that I posted yesterday is not the Maiden Fool from the Silicon Dawn deck–she’s the Crone Fool.  The Maiden Fool is (will be–she hasn’t drawn one she likes yet) the one jumping willy-nilly off of the cliff, which I kind of like better…  I thought the Crone Fool would be all old and wrinkly.  Don’t get me wrong–I like that she’s not.  And it makes more sense having that one be the Crone anyway since it’s the Autumn/Winter card.  I’ve been in contact with the artist, who is funny and personable and charming…  So now I’m even more determined to have this deck.  Especially since she’s got all these cool cards called the Void and 99s…and an extra one called History that’s pretty phenomenal as well.  What can I say?  I’m smitten.  Never thought I’d be smitten by a tarot deck, but there it is.  I suppose I never thought I’d find one that I’d really like.  Amazing…with all the research I’ve been doing and all the tarot decks I’ve looked at, you would think that there would be a lot more out there that I did like.  But so many of them are so silly–and the art doesn’t even impress me.  So well done, Egypt Urnash!

One thought on “Oops. I’m so embarrassed.

  1. I feel the same way about most decks – they just don’t speak to me. Not in terms of the narratives they’re designed to help create, not in terms of how they look.

    I’ve had a few other people react this way, too. Always wanted one, ever found one that they could connect to, until mine came along…
