Renaissance Tarot brings together classic tarot symbolism, the beauty of European Renaissance art, and the timeless stories of Greek and Roman mythology. Each of the 22 Major Arcana cards features an Olympian deity or demi-god, with the guidebook explaining both their Greek and Roman identities and the qualities they represent. The Minor Arcana draws on four beloved myth cycles: Achilles for Swords, Hercules for Staves, Cupid and Psyche for Cups, and Persephone for Coins. The Court Cards highlight some of the great cities of Renaissance Italy, adding another layer of historical charm. Richly illustrated and thoughtfully researched, this deck offers a vivid tapestry of myth, culture, and symbolism that makes each reading feel like stepping into the Renaissance itself.
