Cards illustrated by Tricia Newell.
'The Mythic Tarot' sweeps the medieval dust of the Tarot and brings it into the twentieth century in a form accessible to everyone. Now even the layperson can explore the secrets of the unconscious to find its bearing on his or her personal life and growth. This package contains everything the beginning card user needs: a newly designed Tarot deck based on the Greek myths; an illustrated book explaining how to use the cards; and a silky cloth on which to lay them out.
The cards are elegant, with full colour design and familiar evocative images that make it easy to remember the specific meaning and nuances of each card. The book clearly and simply presents a Western point of view, explaining the origins of the Tarot, how the Tarot works, the meaning of each card, and how to read the cards. The cloth is imprinted with card outlines for the Celtic Cross spread, showing where to lay out the cards and serving as a protective wrapping for the cards when no in use.
