And then there's that really weird deck with a small Marseille card on each card and gorgeous line drawings of a quasi-medieval scene that sort of goes together to make a big picture, but only sort of. Does anybody remember the name? Every now and then I haul it out and try to make any sense at all out of it.

That's the Tarot of the III Millenium. One of my fave decks in my collection. I also have the LoS Medieval, which is also very nice, but less weird.

The strangest deck on my wish list right now I'd say is the Surrealist Tarot. I just adore the art on it. It's so creative and bizarre. It might turn out to be damn near incomprehensible to read with, but I'm willing to give it a try!

One of my weirdo decks is the Transformational Tarot. I suppose it's not supposed to be so strange and does at least loosely follow the RWS style. But for me this deck is totally confounding. I don't know if it will ever make any sense to me, yet I'm still so glad I got it. And I normally hate things that confuse me.

Tarot of the Origins. I deeply love this deck, but am afraid I'll never really get it.

Enochian and the I Am One tarot.
Both very very much NOT Rider or Thoth clones but a totally foreign system of their own (and different from each other of course)
But with artwork that is both compelling and a bit disturbing.

It doesn´t look strange to me and it´s not difficult but for some reason I´ve never come across anyone who´d use it regularly - except for me. So I guess it qualifies?
The Undersea Tarot

I agree with that. I do not get put off by art work that easily, but I finally traded away the Enochian. Rung too many bells inside me.

Genege des Tarotas, complex, and intricate

Alchemical Tarot is hard to use as I think it was designed to use. I keep working with it, but it is a work in progress, so much memorization.

Thanks, Meta--that's it!

Oh! I forgot about the Tarot of Metamorphosis. One of my favorite decks, but mad as a fish.
