Does anyone know anything about this? The description says it comes with a deck, but it doesn't say which one. Does the puzzle somehow do a reading? http://www.mystery-games.com/wooden-horse/tarforjigpuz.html

This is a 1000-piece puzzle that combines to form a picture of a slightly modified celtic cross spread layout sheet. Each celtic cross position has 44 lines that lead to short sentences of 22 upright meanings and 22 reversed meanings for each of the Major Arcana cards. The 22 Major Arcana cards are about 2 1/4" x 3" and printed on heavy cardboard. I believe the 22 Major Arcana cards are from the Tarocco Storico della Citta di Ferrara by Amerigo Folchi. Unfortunately each card also has an arrow printed on it that you use to line up with the printed meaning on the puzzle. In a few of the cards the arrow is really intrusive. You can view the puzzle and a few cards here: Http://www.learntarot.com/pzdesc.htm The page is part of Joan Bunning's www.learntarot.com She sells decks from that site. The Tarot Puzzle is on clearance for $16 (the price includes U.S. shipping). All the decks she sells include free shipping in the U.S. I like Jigsaw Puzzles and this is a fun and pretty puzzle to put together. It's not something to buy for the deck and the printed meanings are simplistic. I hope this helps. Rose
