Goddess Tarot

In the Goddess Tarot, artist Kris Waldherr beautifully illustrates the major arcana with goddesses from cultures around the word. Many of the majors are renamed, probably in an attempt to make them more relevant for a modern audience. The renamed majors are 0 Beginnings, 1 Magic, 2 Wisdom, 3 Fertility, 4 Power, 5 Tradition, 6 Love, 7 Movement, 9 Contemplation, 10 Fortune, 12 Sacrifice, 13 Transformation, 14 Balance, 15 Temptation, and 16 Oppression. I find the new names valuable for meditating on card meanings. However, they can be more limiting than the traditional names and can be confusing to clients. The minor arcana does not reflect a wide departure from traditional decks, but it is illustrated with some ethnic diversity: swords are Egyptian, and pentacles are East Indian.
