in addition to your comments about the 2 of wands, I've always wondered why Pamela switched the placement of the orb and staff, which I would assume represents the kings scepter which should be in his right hand, orb in the left, just as it's depicted in the emperor card. I've only seen one deck that actually made the switch. I also like the hermit card with the moon phases, which is an ingenious nod to one of the hermits more ancient meanings, that being the essence of time. this goes back to the visconti-sforza deck where an hourglass is depicted. the 2 of cups is nicely done, the image is flexible, leaving it more open to interpretation like in a marseilles deck. this is a beautiful deck, deceptively light and airy, but it's subtle and full of depth, just like your presentations. thanks for posting this.
Thank you! And I agree, this deck feels light, without losing depth. I thought I would use it as a personal deck, but I ended up using it professionally instead. It just works for me, without feeling heavy. And I like the older versions of the Hermit card with the hourglass. In looking up old artwork of Father Time, I noticed that the hourglass is sometimes illuminated like a lantern.
Beautiful deck! Thanks for doing it such justice! Fun to watch; can’t wait for more!
Thank you! And thanks for watching...
