I just saw a deck (The Fairy Tale Tarot, by Lisa Hunt) in which The Empress is depicted as the fairy godmother from the Cinderella story! How good is that? In terms of her effect on a person? And of course, reversed, she could be the Bad Fairy in Sleeping Beauty, couldn't she? Love it already, and I've just ordered the deck. 😀

I finally realised that The Fairy Tale Tarot deck by Lisa Hunt is the same one Amazon has displayed for sale. I didn't realise that the Little Red Riding Hood (Innocence/The Fool) card is NOT the picture apparently depicted on the box this time. Anyway, I've been hoping to get this deck for a long time, so I ordered it. Should be here the middle of August sometime. I just know I'll love this deck, as I am an enthusiastic student of fairy/folk tales from around the world, and have a library of books that are collected tales, etc. It will also be great to use this deck in any future ISG group readings I participate in on the forum. I suspect this deck will read extremely well using 'intuition only.' The picture I've seen of the shoemaker's elves working under a full moon at night (The Ace of Pentacles) is just a glimpse of the potential this deck has, in terms of intuitive understanding.

On a whim, picked up the Amber Moon tarot deck. Seems interesting so far, but waiting for it to grab me.
