What Deck Of Cards Has 78 In It?

a Tarot deck,


  22 in the major arcana and the minor consists of four elements, having them numbered through from Ace to 10, then following with page, knight, queen and king, so 14 cards per sign, but here are 4 tarot decks with a difference, all images © Beehive Books, while the Major Arcana features lone specimens, the Minor Arcana details botanical compositions with suit-specific objects like coins or cups, every court card is adorned with royal notations,

 by pairing a classic tarot deck with stunning botanical illustrations, Kevin Jay Stanton merges the spiritual practice with the historical mythology behind plants and flowers, 

 “Their archetypal symbols have mystical, philosophical, and psychological implications that allow us to understand our past, our future, and ourselves,” the illustrator said in a Kickstarter explainer,

  “But even older than that is the symbolism we’ve always assigned to the plants that grow around us.”

 “Divination is the process of finding meaning in symbols or patterns, and similarly, the act of reading tarot is finding patterns, meaning, and visions in the symbols,” he said. “A larger picture is created when a story is formed from how one card interacts with the next, as a bouquet is created from the harmony between many flowers.”

to pick up your own set, three editions, the HerbalistDark Alchemist, and Enchanter are available for pre-order through Beehive Books, you can stay up-to-date with Stanton’s mythical projects on Instagram,they all look so nice, if only I knew how to read them!
