Zīlēšanas kārtis - Viduslaiku Tarots Vladimira Strannikova (kāršu komplekts ar 89 kārtīm un instrukciju)

Meet the unique deck by Vladimir Strannikov "Medieval Tarot. Medieval Tarot". 

Many tarologists know this deck by another name: "Tarot of Medieval Europe. Medieval Europe Tarot". In its time, it spread across Ukraine and Belarus, and it could also be obtained in Russia, but due to the limited print run, not everyone had the opportunity. Reviews were written about the deck, video reviews were made, and many were waiting for a new print run to touch the beautiful. And today we offer you to obtain this obvious must-have for collectors dedicated to the amazing times of the Middle Ages. 

"This deck is an experiment (the second in line) to reflect the Tarot system of Waite through the illustrations of manuscripts of the XIV–XV centuries. 

I really wanted to combine the modern perception of Tarot from the XIX-XX centuries and the creative worldview of a person living in the mid XIV-XV centuries, the era of the Italian and Western European Renaissance. The idea of drawing modern Tarot based on the Waite deck, using the artistic stamps of illustrators of that time, seemed to me not only reasonable, historically accurate, but also creatively interesting. The main feature of this deck is that collages used less known miniatures from manuscript books, called manuscripts of the Renaissance era, rather than monumental canvases by famous artists" — the author of the deck, Vladimir Strannikov. 

What are the features of this deck? The deck is filled with symbols that will be interesting to ponder. They give the cards new meanings that differ from the classic Rider-Waite deck. Despite this, the meanings do not go into excessive originality and can be intuitively recognized even by a novice in the world of Tarot. The guidebook is written by Sergey Savchenko — the founder of the "Russian School of Tarot", a practicing tarologist with 30 years of experience, author of "Tarot of the Dark Path", "Evening Tea with Candles and Tarot Cards. Four Essays on Life, Cards, and Those Who Lay Them Out", "Tarot and Business", "Tarot and Relationships", and others. The instruction not only provides the meanings of the cards but also compares the Rider-Waite deck and Vladimir Strannikov’s deck. Additional planet cards: "Saturn", "Venus", "Jupiter", etc., combined with "Sun" and "Moon" form the zodiacal series: Moon — Cancer, Sun — Leo, Saturn — Aquarius and Capricorn, Venus — Libra and Taurus, Mars — Scorpio and Aries, Jupiter — Pisces and Sagittarius, Mercury — Virgo and Gemini. All symbols are given not in astrological form but as image-prompts.  

The "Medieval Tarot. Medieval Tarot" deck includes: 89 cards in Russian and English (78 standard cards of the Waite Tarot system + 3 duplicate cards: "Hierophant", "Chariot", "Devil" + 7 additional cards forming the zodiacal series + 1 blank card); a color guidebook; a gift hard box with a magnet featuring gold and blue embossing.
