The timeline of the Tarot in 50 imagines is a project I was thinking about, and I have planned and prepared for a while now.
I wanted to create a series of 22 short videos presenting the evolution and the diversity of the design/artwork of the Tarot cards of the so-called Major Arcana.
Although the abundance of the Tarot, respectively Tarot-like Oracles starting from the 20th century is overwhelming, I wanted to keep the videos short and consistent.

The 1st video of the series is The Magician https://youtu.be/G-S6KKO2I_U
The 2nd video is The High Priestess https://youtu.be/Mc7ZBUbZeKc
The 3rd video is The Empress https://youtu.be/-mGjN2x9Mfc
The 4th video is The Emperor https://youtu.be/k-VOLOJysEc
The traditional interpretation of the card:
Upright:
Control, dominance, authority, rigour, leadership, stability, protection, paternity, verticality, duty, order, ambition, plan.
Reversed:
Loss of control, tyranny, rage, anger, emotional immaturity, violence, defrauded of one’s inheritance, instability, abuse.
