I've done a research on the forum before posting this, but in spite of the 140 results I noticed there was not an extensive single thread on the Olympus tarot... I'm considering getting it since I love so much (and studied extensively) greek mythology, litterature and culture , so it really appeals to me and I think I could connect fairly well with it...
I really like the artwork, depicting the world of ancient gods and heros as I imagine it, with muscular and masculine men showing their naked chest and attractive ladies..so different from the artwork found in the Mythic Tarot, which I already own and that I like for the conception but not as much for the artwork, which I find too feminine and weak..
But some cards leave me a little puzzled, such as that Hestia representig the Tower...I'm afraid such an important major's meanings get lost in a reading with this deck...
Then there is the completely original system used for the 4 minor suits...expecially whent it comes to the court cards...
I'm not one of those who think that each and every deck should have a companion book , but I think this is one of the cases where one would be really helpful and needed...also considering the concision of Lo Scarabeo's booklets..
Anyone here has experience with this deck or uses it regularly? Did you find difficult to use it for readings?
How do you get on with it?
Thank you!!
