   this is very acceptable.
   
   it seems to me a happy combination of the rider-waite and crowley-thoth books with necessary elaboration.

   I've been looking forward to the availability of this Tarot deck for quite some time. It appears it was worth the wait! I will be purchasing several decks as gifts to friends and family with the intent that it may inspire further inquiry into the symbolism and Gnosis.

   I do not know if there will be an accompanying book, but there is "The Initiatic Path in the Arcana of Tarot and Kabbalah," which explains all the symbolism of the Tarot.

   Congratulations to Glorian for your efforts making this deck available. The style of the image, being so literal, may be less likely to stimulate the intuitive faculty. Considering the imaginative nature of the elements represented, this is why the more stylized decks are to be preferred. Mainly, your new deck is something to look forward to and will certainly look very nice.

    It seems Triskelion prefers comic books to classical art. The great masters painted very realistically, which adds to our imaginative powers. I think this tarot image has the same potential. It makes the Divine Mother seem even more real. Those old images make the Tarot look cheap and gaudy. I am excited to get a full deck of images like this one!

    There is something to be said for Triskelion's point about images that are more simplistic. While true-to-life imagery is more beautiful, does it not also lend itself to identification?
    
    In my experience, the simpler images arrive in the consciousness more usefully as symbols. More realistic images need further unpacking.
    
    This may also partially explain why comic books and video games have so easily supplanted classical mythology in the pop culture mind set.

    Any imagery can be a cause for identification. In the development of consciousness, simple images are for simple levels of work. But to enter into the archetypes, like the Tarot, you need art that corresponds to those levels. That is why all of the great conscious art is very complex. Just look at the art in any Egyptian, Aztec, Mayan, Hindu, or Tibetan temple. I think this Tarot art from Glorian is actually much simpler than those very elevated and very conscious forms of art.

    Those old tarot drawings are very crude. The colors are terrible, too! I love the new artwork BTW! Keep going Glorian! Fuerza!
