I just bought Tarot of the Origins... I have had my eye on it for ages, I used to look at it every time I went in this particular store... and all the other decks I do that to are gone by the time I go in next... so I bought it! It is really unusual but I think I really like it. The Minors are broken into the four suits of Nature (:WL), Jewel (:OL), Blood (:SL) and Soul (:CL) and each of the numbers are assigned a... thing (eg Ace = Etching, 2 = Age, 3 = Mask etc) Anyway... I am really drawn to this deck and want to know if anyone has got it and uses it??? :)

I had the deck, and the watercolor art is top notch. Very primal in its feeling. Seems more well thought out than a lot of the other Lo Scarabeo decks. I personally, could not connect with this deck. However, I think the deck would be perfect for readings dealing with base emotions or perhaps past lives. Although the cards appear monochromatic, the artist's use of light and shadow gives the images power.

I've been looking at it too, now, for a while, and felt that it'd be perfect for readings about raw, human things. Basics, possibly love relationships & major life pathways. Definately not for the average type reading!
