#> I've had a Zen tarot deck,
probably the Osho Zen Tarot or something, which started off
as an incomplete Tarot, if i recall correctly. the disciples
of Rajneesh, (post-mortem 'Osho', neat idea huh?) constructed
a Tarot on what had been done previously (by Rajneesh himself?).
#> the R-W deck,
aka Rider-Waite. the Smith-Waite deck is extremely well-known,
but there are several variants even of this deck as to colours
and composition, size and level of detail.
>> and a King Arthur/medieval deck before.
no idea what this might be. there are number of them.

generally good advice if one is sufficiently
advanced and studied so as to fashion worthwhile
products for their achievement and use.

it isn't a competition. both may be helpfully
employed by the mystic or mage.

astrology?

:) the skeleton is the character, ultimately.
where 'Tarot' is concerned it is most
convincingly argued to have a structural at
least and possibly harmonic resonance to what
is accepted as 'Tarot' proper. this would be
78/1::21::56 proportions, or divisions of a
similar kind (e.g. 101/1::25::75 Plebeian).
> e=mc2 can beat up the tarot
that a physics equation, not an Oracle.
> bucky's tetrahedron's can beat up the tarot
they could easily combine, as could the solids
from Plato.
> tarot is weak
its formal structure is unique and, if restricted
by the mage to games or cult fashion, then likely
restrictable in use outside its proportion parameters
1 // 3 x 7 // 8 x 7
depend in large on septometries.

chicken bones are probably more traditional.
those are sometimes more complicated, yes.
my Beloved has a really keen saucer for a
cup-and-saucer set that would make tea
leaf reading scientific and wonderfully complex.

that's advanced.
