Rosanne said:One of the images that does not seem to change much is the Hanged Man- it would be interesting to see how this could be built upon. Like as in the Strength card that has so many different forms, does the Hanged Man have the same variety? Can it be changed or challenged? If you could would it be accepted by the Tarotists?

You mean you aren't one ?
Some people who are into tarot will accept no variations of any kind from the tradition they support. That's life. Others are open to evolution in tarot - and Ric is among their number. I'm with Ric. I have had great success with decks from LS that have not followed the "traditional path" - especially some of the narrative ones - and I was one who wanted an evolved TdM...... I thought I might get banned over that one.... (I lost anyway....)
How can we not accept change ? The WORLD changes, for ****'s sake. We need new tarot for new times, IMHO.That is NOT to rubbish the old ones. We also learn from history, and historical decks are also very valuable, both for reading with and for study.
