What a cute Devil! Thanks for sharing <3

These doggos are <3

i don't see how anyone can say these aren't tarot cards! that sounds like jealousy. to me, tarot cards are a window to my own intuition, for a divinatory purpose. if dogs help some key in to their intuition? so be it!

Well, since there are plenty of purists that think the RWS is not a real tarot (because it’s not a part of the Marseille tradition) then this does not surprise me at all  ::) (But I obviously disagree)

that's ridiculous. it makes me question their abilities if those abilities are that tied into a deck format! i know certain decks are easier to interpret than others but to say there is only one, true deck is 🐿🌰🥜!

Yeah. And another thing that amuses me is that many purists talk about the true French tarot-tradition, despite all the evidence that those ‘marseille’ style decks really originated in Italy)  :))

I agree, but there are those who argue that a hundred years before that, tarot came to Italy from France (or even from Spain). The Charles VI tarot attribution is now thought to be false, but there are plenty of web-sites that still claim it's French 14th century, therefore predating Italy.

 

I have to wonder if there are those who hold that the 70 card decks in middle 15th century Italy are the real thing (5 by 14 cards). What then of the Cary-Yale (Visconti-Modrone) inclusion of 15 card minor suits around the same period? It all gets silly very quickly.

Yep agree it does get silly and ego dominated and pointing fingers eg I am better than you. I believe what ever resonates with a person is ok.
