Hi everyone

 

Yesterday's brief discussion (in "any suggestions for bright decks") of the World Spirit Tarot's "Baby Nixon" Sun card got me thinking: what are some cards that make you say "what were they thinking when they came up with that ? "

The 10 of Pentacles from the Bosch Tarot ... I mean seriously pooping pentacles???? that is just nasty lol.

There's also the literally castrated dude in the Deux De Bâton of the Golden Tarot of the Renaissance:

And there he is, lounging in the ground like he's waiting to be served like a pasha while his balls are lying not so far off. For someone so recently gelt, he looks mighty bored.

 

It's grown on me tho.

Quite a number get all flummoxed when they first meet Atargatis from the Barbara Walker Tarot, but she really is quite a dear once you get to know her better:

Empyrean Knight did you deliberately post those two one after the other?!

Lol yeah.

 

After I finished posting about poor Attis,

I suddenly thought 'bout lovely Atargatis.

So I made another post - can you see how swell that is? ^-^

ROFLMAO! I wondered the exact same thing!

 

EK your sense of humor knows no bounds.

 

P.S. I thought I had traded my Bosch deck, but low and behold I found it behind some other decks on my bookshelf last night ... I like the strange art, perhaps in time I will pull the deck out and see if I keep it, attempt to trade it, or if necessary take it Half Priced books>  Who knows may the 10 of poopies might grow on me.  If EK can get over the castrated dude and the toothy female genetalia what is a little golden poop, right? LOL
