Added info for Five Decks

Post by Cowhead »

For whatever it's worth, I've added some comments to the Deck Exchange pages for five decks I previously uploaded. The comments reflect information I didn't have at the time of upload. Use or ignore the information as you see fit.

Here's a brief summary:

Meditation Tarot was created by Mondo Oki and Mei Unasaka, published by Jitsugyo Nihon-sha (Japan) 2000.

Nexus Tarot should probably be identified as Big Arukana Tarot or Shinpi no Tarot Uranai. It was created by Kazumi Niikura, published by Jitsugyo-no Nihon-sha (Japan) 1999.

Love and Mystery Tarot is also (or more usually) known as Moonprincess Himiko Tarot and Ai to Shinpi no Tarotto Uranai. Published 1993.

The deck uploaded as Anan should be called Stella's Simple Tarot. It was created by Stella Kaoruko, published in Japan in 2002. Encyclopedia of Tarot Vol. 4 has an entry for an Anan deck, and it is completely different from (and inferior to) this one.

Tarocchi diVetro a majors-only deck, is also available as a 78-card pack called Crystal Tarot.
