A New Deck

Yesterday the new Tarot Erotica Deck arrived. We were very pleased with the fast service and shipping provided by the Astrology Center of America.

The deck is quite unique, beautifully illustrated, and we think will prove good for reading. As promised by it's name the deck is quite erotic.

The deck backs are reversible, a feature we miss in many cards today.

The deck is well balanced between female and male figures, and pansexual. Gay, straight, and other are all well represented and honored.

The printing seems very well done, but the card stock and finish could have been better.

Standing out right away was the fact that The Universe and Judgment are reversed in number.

More detailed study of the decks imagery reveals that while the cards are quite unique, the traditional meanings of each card can still be easily inferred.

Some of our favorite cards include:

The 8 of Stars (pentacles) which depicts an Asian tattoo artist diligently working on his female subject.

The 5 of Swords which depicts a victorious female warrior and her two vanquished subjects, one male, one female.

The 4 of Stars (pentacles) which depicts a young woman's body locked away with her trinkets and treasure.

The 3 of Stars (pentacles) which depicts a craftsman completing his statue of a nude angel.

The 5 of Stars (pentacles) which depicts a male penitent flagellating himself before the priestess / Goddess.

The 3 of Swords which depicts two males angrily assisting a female sword swallower.

The Tower which depicts a shattered building of stone crafted to look like an erect and circumcised penis.

The Star which depicts a nude female front torso in blue white and black.

The Moon which depicts a nude female rear torso in full vivid color.

We will enjoy using this unusual deck, we will also likely purchase a second copy as a collectable.
