It always seemed like so much fun to make my own tarot deck! I've always had a strange affinity for barnyard animals. I thought it would be cool to make a deck that had anthropomorphic animals represented on the cards.
My ideas so far:
0//The Fool - A sheep, since they tend to follow each other, even if it leads to something bad (like that saying, about sheep...or something)
I//The Magician - A sneaky raccoon (thanks to Curtis Penfold)
II//The High Priestess - A wise and regal barn cat (thanks rabid!)
--Illustration finished!
III//The Empress - A cow, since they're "motherly"
IV//The Emperor - A rooster, with his prettiness high above the barn
V//The Hierophant - A wise barn owl (thanks gregory :>)
VI//The Lovers - A swan and a duck
VII//The Chariot - A strong horse pulling a plow, or another pull-able object
VIII//Strength - A big tough bull with a little sparrow (thanks to Curtis Penfold for the sparrow :>)
IX//The Hermit - A far-off crow (thanks Chronata!)
X//The Wheel of Fortune - A spiderweb resembling a "wheel" (thanks to blue_fusion!)
XI//Justice - ??
XII//The Hanged Man - A bat (thanks Chronata!)
XIII//Death - A fox in a hen house (thanks Mabon-Tail!)
XIV//Temperance - ??
XV//The Devil - a farmer tempting a poor little piggy with food! how horrible! (thanks to Curtis Penfold!)
XVI//The Tower - a chaotic goat (thanks Curtis Penfold and rabid!)
XVII//The Star - ??
XVIII//The Moon - ??
XIX//The Sun - ??
XX//Judgment - ??
XXI//The World - ??
I was thinking that Judgment could perhaps be like a Ribbon Show. Since I'm really new to this, I'd really appreciate any ideas! Also, I'd be making this deck purely for myself.

The world needs more decks with anthropomorphic animals. They remind me of the cartoons of the 80s and 90s. Anyway, when I started making my deck, I was initially planning to make it strictly my own, as well. But, the more progress I made, the more I wanted to publish. Maybe publishing would be a good thing for you, as well.
