 The luscious imagery
of The Sacred Circle Tarot promises to be very thought provoking indeed.
The book that accompanies the deck reflects a wiccan/druidic magickal
practice but retains the ancient association of swords with air, wands
with fire. Many of the new decks that reflect the wiccan tradition reverse
the elemental meaning of swords and wands. Being a traditionalist, and
follower of a Scottish shamanic path, I prefer to use decks that keep the
swords as air and wands as fire. This deck, begun over 15
years ago, could only be completed in the manner the duo envisioned when
they discovered the computer program Adobe Photoshop. Unlike other
photographically collaged tarot decks, The Sacred Circle layers several
different images with illustrations (ie. dragons and other
non-photographic creatures/symbols) in a single scene as if the real and
astral appeared in the same moment for the photographer's lens. The effect
of the layering is surreal, opening a psychic doorway for the user by
drawing the eye into a rich scenic image. It is rare for both a deck and
book to capture my heart, Sacred Circle does so and more.
