The Witches Tarot by Ellen Cannon Reed is a must for Witches, Wiccans, and all
lovers of the Tarot. This is the first Tarot deck to successfully unite the
ancient images of the Tarot with the even older symbolism of Paganism. The
result is a deck that is traditional and unique, familiar and evocative,
powerful and friendly.
Although this deck follows the form of the
traditional Tarot, Martin Cannon's magnificent art takes the deck to a new level
of realism and strength. The High Priestess stands proudly in the Goddess pose,
wearing a garter that indicates she is indeed a high priestess of many covens.
The High Priest shows an older but power-filled man about to thrust an athame
into a chalice, part of the symbolic Great Rite. The Strength card truly
represents spiritual strength; the woman on the card does not need to close the
lion's mouth. The lion is tamed by her spirit, and meekly licks her
chin.The card known traditionally known as "the Devil" is here called
"The Horned One" and shows a couple gazing in awe at the powerful God crowned in
the horns of a stag. On the card known as the Universe, the central figure ó
again a strong, powerful woman ó has energy vibrating from her hands, forming a
ring of twelve circles representing the zodiac and indicating her direct control
of the future.
The realism and strength of these cards will make this one
of your favorite decks. But there is a hidden secret in these cards which you
might not even notice at first. When you do, it will make the cards even more
powerful! Traditionally, the Major Arcana cards are associated with the paths on
the Kabalistic Tree of Life, a glyph which can function as a road map to the
planes of the universe.
The paths unite spheres of energy which have certain
colors associated with them. In each card of the Major Arcana, the backgrounds
reveal the spheres in their proper colors and positions in relation to the card.
This makes The Witches Tarot the perfect key to understanding and even
memorizing the powerful symbolism for use in divination and magick.
The
fifty-six cards of the Minor Arcana are also fully illustrated. Each one
features strong characters in rural settings, evoking a feeling of ancient
mystery and Pagan spirituality.Included is a thirty-two page booklet of
instructions.
Although the deck is ideal for use with any spread, the booklet
begins with two layouts, the famous Celtic Cross Spread and the unique Four
Seasons pattern. The booklet continues with the divinatory meaning of each and
every card in the deck, giving the interpretations for them when they appear in
the upright and reversed positions.
With this deck, the booklet, and a little
practice, you'll be giving readings in no time! Get The Witches Tarot today.
