A classic. An old-fashioned fortune telling deck, with vivid and detailed old style drawings about every day concepts. There are 36 cards with specific symbolism that can amazingly apply to any question, especially through the richness of details in the images and using them for various questions that go beyond the 36 concepts is one of the most exciting interpretation games.
Card Names:
Anger, Baby, Constancy, Death, Ecclesiastic, Enemy, Desire,
Falseness, Fidelity, Fortune, Gift, Hope, House, Jealousy,
Journey, Judge, Letter, Loss, Love, Lover, Malady, Marriage,
Merriment, Message, Misfortune, Money, Officer, Sadness,
Some money, Sweetheart, Thief, Thought, Unexpected Joy,
Visit, Widow, Widower
To give an example from a recent health reading, the fan in the Gift card suggested the temperature of the Querent will cool, as it was the query itself. The same card foretold a love message in a different context, based on the congratulation card in the picture, despite the more straightforward communication cards not being present in the spread.
The challenge and pleasure in working with this deck is encompassing the explicit images and meanings yet going beyond them at the same time. With this deck, it is essential to focus less on the individual card and its significance and to pay a greater attention to their position per rapport to the other cards in the spread for the meaning of each card is significantly altered by its position and the surrounding cards.
