I bought this deck a few months ago and I really like it. I love the already stated recurring symbols. They give depth to the cards and add links to cards you otherwise wouldn't think of.
I used it in a reading exchange for AnemoneRosie and used the symbols to compare cards and to bring in other cards which could enlighten the meaning. It was one of my most detailed readings and provided some really great results! Although this kind of explanations will work only between Tarot nerds and not in a reading for your average querent.
Take for instance the Hanged Man: his head is in a cage and he holds a key behind his back. On the key there is a symbol of an eye. For me, this is a very beautiful way to express the esoteric meaning of the Hanged Man in a new way, the deepening of understanding of the divine. Our thoughts are caged but we hold the key ourselves, and this key is the third eye. There is again the connection to yoga.
I can't get my head around the different eggs though. To me they appear intact where I would expect them to be broken and vice versa... any guesses on this yet?
I would recommend it to everyone who likes a deck that defies intuition at first sight. It can be a very rewarding experience analyzing the cards and their symbols.
