Old English Tarot Old English Tarot
A well-made deck of English Tarot displays the themes of the Middle Ages. She brings us back to the 13th century. The English style of medieval art has a wonderful soft, slightly old-fashioned look. Older Arcana are fairly simple figures, while Junior Arcana are images of elements and tiny scenes at the base of four houses: cups, coins, wands, and swords.
Old English Tarot is perfect for lovers of the Middle Ages along with the Tarot of the Medieval Cats. Old English Tarot is not for beginners. It is very difficult to understand the interpretation of the younger Arcana. They have small images, which in some cases, of course, show the meaning of the map, and in some cases, as it seems at first glance, not completely.
