my new Tarot (Lurianic Tarot)
Greetings, everyone,
I'm a new arrival to this forum. I have been checking out decks on the Aeclectic Tarot for some time now, and never realised this forum was here until only recently (!)
A few years ago, I conceived of and created a design for a Tarot strongly aligned with the Holy (Jewish) Kabbalah, and the teachings of R' Isaac Luria, whose Tree of Life model bears some more-than-negligible differences compared to the European Kircher model.
Early last year, a friend of mine persuaded me to have my design published, but after returning to the artwork, I realised that it wasn't good enough for me. I spent several months re-working the art, layout, and overall design for the deck, and I'm happy to say that I've completed that effort.
The Lurianic Tarot (as it is named) represents a convergence of Lurianic kabbalistic understanding with the orderliness and sensibility of the archetypes found in Tarot. Each card possesses its own synthesis of colour and dynamism which conveys its unique characteristics, without sacrificing the sense of unity in design with the rest of the deck.
I don't know how many people on here might be interested in such a Tarot (I've seen a broad gamut of Tarot decks out there, aligned with all sorts of design schemes), but I have a website devoted to showcasing the card designs and documentation, if anyone is interested:
