The Brain-Heart Tarot, as presented here, is a new edition of my earlier black and white deck. It has been beautifully painted by Carol Herzer. This major arcana has only twenty cards, as at the time I considered the the three last cards, 19, 20, and 21 as different aspects of the same archetype.
I started out with a scientific approach. I saw several relationships between science, numbers, and the archetypes of the major arcana. However when I reached card nine, the energies in me totally reversed to an inspirational approach. Thus the first ten cards (0 to 9) are intellectual, from the brain, and the following ten cards (10 to 19) are inspirational, from the heart. Hence the name Brain-Heart Tarot. Thus it formed a perfect polarity between these two opposite but complementary poles.
The booklet explains in detail every symbol on the cards.
