This deck is my favorite deck of all time (note I am more of a minor collector/Amateur), it has an insert card which looks like the other tarot cards on the back but on the front it has some text. I can not scan it in (sorry, but it's gold with black text on it) here is a type up of what it says:
| Quote: |
Beautifully rendered by artist Timothy Lantz, Archeon Tarot integrates art and iconography from the varied worlds of mythology, mysticism, and dream imagery to create a visual language of the soul.
Deriving from several sources, including "archeology," Archeon Tarot helps the reader sift through the layers of meaning and interpretations of life through the tarot reading. The term "Eons" refers to the divine emanations sent forth by God as the attributes of mind, reason, power, truth and life. "Archons" were the regents of civil and cultural affairs in ancient Athens.
The companion booklet integrates words of wisdom from great minds like Twain and Tolstoy, with fresh interpretations of the Major and Minor Arcana. Archeon Tarot allows the reader to explore the paths connecting the spiritual subconscious with real events and decisions. |
The reason why it is my favorite deck is said in that type-up of their insert. It has a historical interpretation/twist on it... It is SO beautiful and very unique, it is easy for me to interpret with even only their guided booklet alone as a beginner if I have nothing else on hand (I was someone who always looked up the cards with books). I recommend you print this quoted text into your glossary with the scan of that card if you can get your hands on it.
The deck does have a historical quote for every card, BUT I'm not advanced enough in my understanding of Tarot to tell you if the quotes are meaningfully placed or not. I refuse to type up those quotes for you from the booklet, you must purchase it on your own!
