Rhiannon,
\
\Thanks so much for doing this...I've had the deck for years, diddn't even know there was a book. (Duhh...) I probably would never have figured out what gods went with what cards, etc., on my own.
:D

No, actually.. Hel is not on the Death card, she's on Temperance in the background of "Hermod's Ride".
You're welcome!

I've been a fan of Norse Mythology for a long while, so I really like these correllations... Seeing the art of the deck I really like it... Being already familiar with the mythology this might actually make a decent starting deck for me. =]
I kind of wish that frigga and freya could change places as the high priestess/ Empress , and perhaps make Loki the magician, and odin the emperor. But thats not a big deal.
