I found this drawing of Pythagorus and fell in love with how much it looks like he could be the Magician - even has the 'as above so below' symbolism.
I would LOVE a deck like this.
 

Are there any Hellenic decks that you recommend? The only ones I've seen are the Mythic and some that either have images that don't seem to relate to the card (and no explanation in the white book as to why it was used) and others that mix Roman in with Greek. I'm so tempted by the Mythic, but the High Priestess looks disinterested and jaded 😬

I know you posted this in tarot decks, but one of the most well known decks  featuring Greek mythology is the Grand Jeu Lenormand. It's quite complicated.  Most resources are in French. It would take years to learn to read with it, if that's what you're interested in.

Thanks @fire cat pickles! I just looked up the images and they look great with myths and stories that I recognise. Unfortunately I don't even know how to read Lenormand (although I'd love to) - adding the French would be a big job for sure. But yes, they look great.

There’s the Pythagorean Tarot (this may be OOP) or the Mythic. The latter has had a bit of a change in art style in the recent edition so it’s worth looking at both old and new versions to see what you prefer. 

Thanks @Flaxen! You're going to laugh... I found the Pythagorean Tarot for $772. I think I'll pass 😂 
Yes I've seen the Mythic, but the art on some of the images seem to block my intuition to put it nicely.

I can't believe I forgot about the Olympus Tarot and Brian Williams' Renaissance Tarot, both of which I own... I did a search on the Olympus Tarot and the word "aeclectic" and ran across a Tarot Mitilogical by Amerigo Folchi, but I'm sure that one is pricey. (ETA: Yep $145 on ebay.)

😱 Wow! I have a copy of that deck - maybe I should sell it. 😂

I feel like that all the time ! (I have one too. Also the Folchi.)

Thank you! The Apollo ones are only majors. The Delphi ones are beautiful! Unfortunately they're not shipping out of the US at the moment. But I've noted them down anyway. Thanks!

Yep... I have plenty of decks on my list, unfortunately $145 on ebay doesn't tempt me. But thank you!
