The much-loved Mythic Tarot deck has enjoyed international success and become a collector's classic. The card illustrations depict the archetypal characters of the Greek myths, whose experiences perfectly reflect the deeper patterns of our lives today. For The New Mythic Tarot, these myths have been beautifully re-illustrated by Giovanni Caselli, a tarot artist with a passion for the classical world.

Over 80 of the most popular stories from the Old and New Testaments are faithfully retold in simple language in this beautiful book. Every story is authentically illustrated in full color. All the stories in this book are complete in themselves and can be chosen for reading at random. The popular section includes Adam and Eve, Noah's Ark, Moses and the Bulrushes, David and Goliath, Daniel and the Lions' Den, The First Christmas, Feeding the Five Thousand, The Lost Sheep, The Good Samaritan, and The Crucifixion.

The Grail Tarot re-tells the fabulous grail legend - one of the most famous mysteries the world has ever known - and relates the quest for the sacred Christian relic to our desire to understand the puzzle of our own lives. Characters drawn from over 2,000 years of fascinating Grail history - including the enigmatic Knights Templar - now take their place in the Major Arcana of this superb deck, with the suits represented by the four Grail Hallows: cup, spear, sword and stone. Giovanni Caselli's stunning art is inspired by the beautiful Renaissance paintings of Piero della Francesca. When the cards of the four minor suits, and the majors, are laid face-up and side by side, each group forms a complete story, in the style of an Italian fresco.

Text and illustrations present information on the parts of the body and how they work.
