If you are a serious Tarot student - you need a Thoth. Where you get it is another matter. It has never been unavailable....

I live in a place were tarot is not really recognized or let me say people thinks tarot is a word of something evil, so maybe I'm a little bit late with tarot.

You still need one ! I know you are studying.

ETA one of the best current deck creators is in the Philippines..... Ly Narciso.

Goodness. That's a thought.

*dashes off and checks USG site*

It looks as though there are 3 magus cards only in the small version (even the premier says it is a "small deck with the three magus cards" - that's the purple box one.. But that does mean they are available.

Alida usually stocks USG decks. So does tarotchest - and they have that listed (out of stock, of course) - but again - it is the smaller size.

the large size also is an 80 card deck (3 magus cards)

I think we should remember before jumping to defend the poor people at USG, that they are a company that is renowned for vigilantly enforcing their own dubious copyright on the RWS deck, whose creators died somewhat before the Thoth's did. Wonderful that they've got a taste of their own medicine back, a lovely bit of Adjustment for them I say :)

Are you sure?

The only English large 3 Magus - Thoth I've ever seen was the 1986 Swiss Box by AG Müller ....
