Runic "Tarot"- Caroline Smith

Cerulean

It might be 24 or 76 cards, so not really tarot, following Celtic - Norse seasonal times. The promos say 76 cards...although I also see on the website 24 rune designs...

Hmm, don't hit me, but it's a good thing it's not out until 2/05 in the States. I have no business buying much for a little while at least. I bought myself an early Christmas present last night. It's the black Griffin by Windstone. I've been wanting it & asking for it for Christmas/B-days on & off for about 12 years. I just read online last night that it was retired in April of this year. So I had to buy it right?

I love the artwork, I would have to see the whole deck once published to see what her Minors are like. I have the feeling the Minors might be pips.

But if they have rune symbols on them, they wont be too pipish. ;) Is that even a word? LOL!

I love her art and have her Elemental and Moon decks. I really like the elemental as a reading deck, but have never quite clicked with the Moon deck. (Astrology is so not my best thing) I think if anyone ever really nails timing in tarot, she'll be the one to do it.
I know I'll get this one, runes and seasons together sounds great! I've started seeing "the North" as a blended culture and this looks like it will connect right into that concept.
She's fully illustrated everything of hers I've ever seen...does she do pips?

Another one for the wish list. I'm beginning to think that I've never not had a wish list :D

Well, I think these are great and I'm not usually too keen on Celtic cards in general as they seem to be getting gimmicky.

Hey Mari, these would go nicely with the Tarocchi Celtici too.
