Kiama	04 May 2005
Hi folks, I recently acquired the beautiful Tarot Erotica by Lori Walls in a trade, and have been entranced by it ever since. It's stunning, with a definite Thoth-esque feel to it, both artwork-wise and point of view-wise. Surprisingly, it's also one of the few erotic decks I have seen that is also full of symbolism and easily readable, which just adds to its beauty for me. I was showing it to another friend last night (I'm showing it to everybody!) and we noticed that the Universe (World) is number XX whilst Judgement is numbered XXI. In the LWB this is the same. I am wondering if this is accidental, or if it is a hats-off to an earlier ordering of the Majors. I vaguely remember a mention somewhere that in earlier decks, Judgement came after the World, because of obvious religious reasons. Any input? Blessings, Kiama

Hi Kiama, I don't think it's a misprint. I found this review on tarot passages and it mentions the renumbering of the Major arcana. Unfortunately the links to the card images don't seem to work. Love Sulis xx

*** runs and digs the deck out of the many ...*** Funny, I never noticed that before! In your mind, does it really affect anything as far as how you interpret the cards? The only people who pay attention to the numbers on the cards are readers into the numerology aspects...
