Le Fanu said:I heard that the Smith & Astrop Runic Tarot is coniderably "off" in its attributions and understanding of runes. It was something I have come across here, and which I have seen repeated so I don't know if that is the case. As with everything, I should really look into it myself!
I read everything I could find on it here and most of the criticism seems directed at the "minor arcana". I am ok with dumping the "minor arcana" completely if necessary and just using it as a 24 rune card deck. They lost a lot of points calling it a Tarot deck and trying to be all things to all people (Tarot deck, rune deck, Celtic, Germanic, timing system). I will let you know when I have received it and studied it. I saw it in real life and liked the artwork and I think the illustrated 24 "major arcana" could help me to learn the runes initially. I did not pay a lot for it.
