Greetings All,
I've recently inherited a tarot deck. There's nothing with the cards to identify who created the deck. I am hoping that the vast amount of experience will help me.
The best description of the art is that it is quite stylized. The Fool's image is difficult to describe as it is filled with many different elements. What I think helps though is below the image is the word, "potential. In the left hand border (card reading upright) is the phrase, "I am the Unlearned" and in the right hand margin (again card reading upright) is the phrase "And They can Learn from Me." For the minor arcana and exampe is the Queen of Pentacles - in this deck she is "Mother of Earth" (the title or phrase at the top of the card when upright) and at the bottom is "Geremiah."
I hope that's enough information. Please feel free to answer here or message me. Thank you so much. This deck belonged to someone I loved very much who is recently deceased. I'd really like to discover which deck it is.
Peace,
Raven

Re: Identifying a Deck
Mon, October 19, 2009 - 11:18 AMIs there a chance you could scan one or two of the cards so we could see them? It would make it easier to help with identification.

Thank you - I checked your link and that's the deck. I don't know if it will ever work with me but I'm glad to know what deck it is. I know that my loved found it VERY useful - it worked for him quite well.
Peace,
Raven
