Hudes Tarot

This interesting deck by Susan Hudes was published in 1995 by U.S. Games Systems. It’s a standard 78-card deck, with Major card names, Court card names, and suit titles all following the Waite-Smith deck. The imagery on the Minors follows Pamela Colman Smith; in fact, in the placement of the figures they seem to actually be based on another Waite-Smith derivative, the Aquarian Tarot by David Palladini. The Major imagery, however, is more original and individualistic. Read more Hudes Tarot

No such thing as luck

‘No such thing as luck’ or what is a Tarot reading

Hardcore fans of Science generally are quite skeptical about fortune telling and especially about Tarot cards. They seem to ignore the fact that Physics is about predicting the future. As a consequence we should consider Physics a kind of Magic or charlatanism? Obviously this is not the case. While Science needs a data set to make predictions, Tarot works in a mysterious, not yet identified way. While in Science the quantity of data it’s crucial and the lack of data or more data can alter or completely change the result of a prediction, in Tarot all we need is the 78 Tarot cards which incorporates all the available data (information) from the Universe.
