i like this one, great artwork, but it's oop :-( and it's not a full deck, only 22 majors, but they are beautiful. i especially like death, wheel and hierophant. kaz

This was indeed initially a Majors-only deck, but it has been reworked and she has Aces posted on her site, so I think she must be rereleasing it as 78 cards. You can see much of the original deck at the Mystic Eye arot Picture Page: http://www.themysticeye.com/pics/ Some of the cards are the same -- Death, Judgement, the Emperor, Justice -- but many of the majors appear to be redone; the Magician for example is now a mother nursing her new baby, but the original has a mother who has only just given birth and is in that exhausted, sweaty "I did it!" euphoria. Thanks for alerting us to this, Kissa! I love the artwork so much and really was sorry it was majors-only when I first saw it. Incidentally, on the page Kissa links to, you can do "Open Image in New Window" and see the images somewhat larger.

qolus, the new one in progress is the Maat Tarot, this one will include minors and indeed some cards are the same and some aren't. the hierophant has changed in Maat, and the wheel as well, i really liked those in the blue moon version. but, it might be one to get if it gets published, i will wait for the other cards to decide. kaz

Ok, my mistake if it is oop already ... :( Can I be forgiven for misleading my fellow netties if I say that our toddler was yelling behind me and I was in a hurry to put a short message here without watching the all stuff thru ???

I didn't know Julie was doing another deck--she's the one who put out the Ancestral Path Tarot a few years back. The Hierophant is a strange picture for that card, looks more Sagittarius inspired than Hierophant. And is Maat in pain or orgasmic joy? She's measuring a heart against the feather to see if it balances, but the picture is so small I can't really make out her expression. I do like some of the other cards very much.
