The Witches Tarot Deck - The Magick Moon

The Witches Tarot Deck by: Ellen Cannon Reed. 78 full-color cards, 5 1/4 x8 includes a thirty-two page booklet.

The Witches Tarot by Ellen Cannon Reed is a must for Witches, Wiccans, and all lovers of the Tarot. This is the first Tarot deck to successfully unite the ancient images of the Tarot with the even older symbolism of Paganism. The result is a deck that is traditional and unique, familiar and evocative, powerful and friendly.

Although this deck follows the form of the traditional Tarot, Martin Cannon's magnificent art takes the deck to a new level of realism and strength. The High Priestess stands proudly in the Goddess pose, wearing a garter that indicates she is indeed a high priestess of many covens. The High Priest shows an older but power-filled man about to thrust an athame into a chalice, part of the symbolic Great Rite. The Strength card truly represents spiritual strength; the woman on the card does not need to close the lion's mouth. The lion is tamed by her spirit, and meekly licks her chin.The card known traditionally known as "the Devil" is here called "The Horned One" and shows a couple gazing in awe at the powerful God crowned in the horns of a stag. On the card known as the Universe, the central figure "again a strong, powerful woman," has energy vibrating from her hands, forming a ring of twelve circles representing the zodiac and indicating her direct control of the future.

The realism and strength of these cards will make this one of your favorite decks. But there is a hidden secret in these cards which you might not even notice at first. When you do, it will make the cards even more powerful! Traditionally, the Major Arcana cards are associated with the paths on the Kabalistic Tree of Life, a glyph which can function as a road map to the planes of the universe. The paths unite spheres of energy which have certain colors associated with them. In each card of the Major Arcana, the backgrounds reveal the spheres in their proper colors and positions in relation to the card. This makes The Witches Tarot the perfect key to understanding and even memorizing the powerful symbolism for use in divination and magick.The fifty-six cards of the Minor Arcana are also fully illustrated. Each one features strong characters in rural settings, evoking a feeling of ancient mystery and Pagan spirituality.

Included is a thirty-two page booklet of instructions. Although the deck is ideal for use with any spread, the booklet begins with two layouts, the famous Celtic Cross Spread and the unique Four Seasons pattern. The booklet continues with the divinatory meaning of each and every card in the deck, giving the interpretations for them when they appear in the upright and reversed positions. With this deck, the booklet, and a little practice, you'll be giving readings in no time! Get The Witches Tarot today.
