Deck by David Palladini

David Palladini wanted to create a deck that is "both beautiful and powerful, ancient and modern." The original paintings were done in ink, magic marker, and pencil on rag paper. Many races and religious symbols were incorporated to give the images a more universal, inclusive appeal. From the Introduction card in the Tarot pack, David Palladini wrote:

"As the creator of The New Palladini Tarot, I have tried to infuse as much magic and true meaning as possible into the artwork. But these subtleties will only become apparent and useful after careful and patient introspection. Each door which opens reveals more doors to be opened. Each road travelled leads to more roads and choices. Each new piece of knowledge gleaned from the cards leads to greater knowledge.
Remember, your personal input is very important to the successful use of the Tarot cards, and intuition and sensitivity are paramount. The cards can only be a tool of introspection, a mirror for one's own development, an occasional counsel and help. That is the spirit in which I wish my decks to be used. Not as a substitute for spirituality, but as an enhancement of belief and truth."

This is an attractive deck with vivid artwork, and rather than just portraying Old English style figures, the people in the deck come from a more diverse world background. As this deck is a Waite-Smith clone, those readers who are familiar with the traditional Waite-Smith should have no trouble using this deck. It's a deck that will appeal to most anyone, and is certainly suitable for the beginning card reader.
