The first picture you see of the woman on Lo Scarabeo's website... (circular picture on left side of screen) what is that from??? Is it from a particular deck?

She's from the Lo Scarebo Enchanted Tarot deck. I can't recall which card she is.

Another name for this deck is The Tarots of the Golden Dawn (I Tarocchi Dell'Alba Dorata). I ~think~ that might be the Page of Cups. I'm not sure.

I think you're right - I think it is the Page of Cups.
The Tarocchi Dell'Alba Dorata is the 22 card Majors only version of this deck.
She's a beauty, isn't she?

Actually, it was the original name of the Italian version of the 78-card edition as well. It translates as "Tarots of the Golden Dawn," which was the original English name of the 78-card version. Later, the name was changed to the "Enchanted Tarot" -- I assume to avoid confusion or copyright conflict with the Regardie/Wang "Golden Dawn Tarot"...
...I detail all this, because FYI, Lo Scarabeo has temporarily withdrawn the Enchanted Tarot from circulation. The reason is because of yet another name/copyright issue -- specifically, a conflict with the Zerner/Farber tarot set published under the name "The Enchanted Tarot." The Lo Scarabeo deck is being repackaged; when rereleased, the new name of the deck will be "Tarot of the Hidden Folk." I think maybe this time, they should be okay, huh?...

Thanks guys! That's been making me crazy! I love that picture, she's so gorgeous. Ok, so I'm waiting for the re-release and new name of this deck and then it'll most likely be mine. Muahahahaha!
