There are 2 more new decks out here, unfortunately only as cards + book in German. One is the Tantra deck which should be a synthesis of Tantra and Tarot. The cards look like illustrations out of the Kamasutra. The other is the Management Tarot. The pics I have seen in a catalogue look a bit like the Majors of the Merlin Tarot or the new Sherman-Burke beginner's deck. I still haven't had both in my hands but I think I will try to have a glimpse at them.

Do you have the site addresses for these decks so we can all have a little peek?

I tried to find them but, in vain. The Tantra-Tarot deck is from Lea Levin, a pretty well-known German witch with several publications about witchcraft. She also leads a witch school in Hannover, Northern Germany. The few pics I have seen of the Tantra-Tarot look like taken from Indian Miniature pictures of the time of the Mogul art or like Thankas. I will try to find out more.

ok, folks, I could not resist getting the Tantra tarot. The book that goes with it is rubbish, too superficial and if the writer does not recognize even Kali, s/he should stop writing a book about it. The cards are great! A lot larger than standard tarot cards with a thin golden border which matches well with the colourful pictures. I try to get some cards scanned and would mail them together with a review to Solandia. Watch out, you addicts, there will be a new assault on your purse/credit cards!

Yesterday I also saw a copy of the Manager tarot. The cards are smaller than US standard size (interesting for those with smaller hands) and the artwork is nicely done in soft watercolours. It is only available as a book + cards set. The book contains references to I ging and Enneagram but is not indepths.

those links aren't working, unfortunately... the site told me to enable cookies, and I did, but they still won't work.

Ok, I posted today the scans of the Tantra Tarot to Solandia. So there is another assault on your credit cards at hand!
