Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum so apologies if this has already been covered.
I bought this deck in France about 12 years ago and I've never managed to read with it successfully. Has anyone got any information about it?
Thanks and bright blessings,
Feabhra

My book 'World of the Tarot' by Sergius Golowin is somewhat of a companion book for the Tsigane deck. It uses non-RW meanings for the Minor cards. For example, Five of Cups: You approach the "star of hope and mercy" with the conviction that all your actions have a deeper meaning. You see things with new eyes and experience what some call a "mystical rebirth" which influences your thoughts and actions.
Much of the symbology is explained in terms of East Indian religion. Regarding Temperance, "she has wings and wears a star on her head, showing herself to be an Apsara- the Indian word for fairy or swan-maiden".
