That empress is... wow. Just tell me that's a pomegranite, please.

It's a babushka doll. You know, they fit inside each other like onion-skins?

Hey!

A Babushka Tarot!

I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto.....:bugeyed:....but I think this empress is still a Virgin. I wonder what the High Priestess card looks like?

Now now - that Empress could be a woman enfolding a small someone in her arms. It doesn't have to be what we see in the first instance :bugeyed: but - if it is that, then it's a valid (if limited) interpretation..... in its way .......

Well, I tried to redeem the Empress, I really tried.

She's certainly very -er- female. But then, babushka dolls, with dolls-inside-dolls, usually are.

Suddenly I find myself craving my own secret recipe of mussels in eggplant and garlic sauce. Perhaps she looks like a hairless mussel. Yum.

Interesting...it doesn't look like the same deck. Do you think it's 2 different decks with the same name, or what?

I think they're two different decks - but I find the fact that they share the same title while having totally opposite styles interesting. :D

actually, I encountered the deck in the link I posted some years back, so I was surprised there's another deck with the same name.

<falling about laughing...:D> But eating mussels in eggplant and garlic sauce...a very worthwhile activity!
