Does anyone know of a deck that has modern day images, you know people who look like they're in the 21st century. I'm not to keen on the old looking decks. Looking for "new energy"

There's also a 'Modern' category here on Aeclectic where they mention Adrian Tarot, New Millenium and Rohrig. The photo or computer type decks can be modern too like Quest.

My vote goes to the PoMo although it's post-modern rather than modern.

Hi Phoenix :)
I own both the Rohrig and the Voyager decks. Both are very modern and both incredibly beautiful.
Rohrig was my first deck because I was blown away by the vividness and originality of the images. The Magician was just staring at me. Many of the Majors are full faces and they seem to speak to me directly.

Voyager has come to me very recently, but the collaged images on the cards are so evocative and modern. Each card contains so much to explore. A real feast for the eyes and the spirit!

I particularly like the Chariot 7 and the Hierophant 5 cards in the Voyager deck.
I couldn't have one deck without the other.
I hope my 'two cents' have helped. :)

If you like dark decks you might want to check out the Gothic Tarot of Vampires. The featured vampires are "living" in big modern cities, wear modern clothes etc.
It's not a deck for everyone though.
The Fradella Adventure looks like so much fun! I would love to play around with it. And I just narrowed down the number of decks on my wishlist! :rolleyes:
Does anyone have it?

Phoenix,
Have you found one yet that suits your desire for modern day people? I know that soon Lo Scarabeo will be releasing a Pagan deck with modern day pagans, the theme is everyday people living regular modern lives, while also being pagans. I think this is going to be a great deck.
