Tarot Apokalypsis Kit

Tarot Apokalypsis Kit by Kim Huggens & Erik C. Dunne

Forget the standard-issue tarot iconography — this deck goes straight to the source of Western mysticism itself, pulling from the Eleusinian mysteries of Greece, the deserts of ancient Egypt, classical Rome, and the Shiva rituals of India. Erik Dunne's illustration work (the mind behind the acclaimed Tarot Illuminati) renders it all in colors — the kind of deck you want to hold up to the light before you even start shuffling.

Each suit of the minor arcana gets its own civilization: Egypt for Wands, Greece and Rome for Cups, Norse mythology for Swords, and the Khmer Empire for Pentacles — plus a rare 23rd major arcana card, The All-Gifted, that precedes The Fool. This is a deck for readers who want their tarot practice tied to something ancient and specific, not generic mysticism dressed up in pretty art.

Details:

• 79-card deck (including a 23rd major arcana card, The All-Gifted)
•  460-page hardcover book detailing the esoteric symbols
