About

I got my first deck of Tarot cards when I was 17. It was a Marseille deck and it kicked off a journey that has taken 35 years and counting! These cards were a gateway to history, numerology, astrology, art, and magick. The earliest Marseille deck was created in 1639. Before that, the Visconti Sforza decks were created in 1450. So for those who think the Rider Tarot is the OG - you would be mistaken. In fact, Pamela Coleman Smith took her artistic inspiration for the Rider deck directly from another elder Tarot deck - the Sola Busca Tarot, created in 1491. The Marseille Tarot is featured here and lends itself exceptionally well to numerological and astrological studies and reflects the spiritual teachings of The Cathars, a peaceful Christian sect slaughtered by the Catholic Church during the Albigensian Crusades.
