For many, many years I have wanted to use the tarot deck within the RPG. O finally grew impatient enough to write my own version. In writing the book, I borrowed heavily on Dr. A. E. Waite's tarot deck because it is the most generically understood. I also used Eden Gray's interpretations of the major and minor arcana to guide me. There are also smatterings of the the Golden Dawn and others. What I then did was to incorporate fantasy RPG elements to the readings to deal with introducing the readings into a game situation.I have tried to design the system to allow a GM to do a reading (if he or she is comfortbale) using a deck, d20 rolls, or a quick and easy read for those who are not as comfortable. To that end I have included info on 8 popular spreads (Celtic Cross, Tree of Life etc.).Not to go into too much detail, but for the spell section, the different cards, both major and minor act as foci to enable the tarot mage to cast a number of spells (based on the readings).Does that help somewhat?Zifar</blockquote>
