猫咪塔罗的GuidebookThe Cat Tarot is a charming new deck from Meagan Lynn Kott. I hesitate to call it cute (although it really is) because ‘cute’ tends to trivialise its subject matter, and this really is a well-conceived and executed deck. Yes, there are several cat tarot decks on the market, but each and every one is unique and this deck is no exception. Rather than dressing cats up as historical personages or anthropomorphising them and making them perform human deeds Megan Lynn Kott has based this deck on astutely observed cat behaviours that will be familiar to all cat enthusiasts. It looks at the world in the way we imagine cats would perceive life. Just a few examples – The Hermit hides inside a paper bag, Death is portrayed as a vacuum cleaner (foreboding but not fatal), and The Devil is a drooling dog. It is also based on the Waite-Smith deck, and finds clever and unusual ways to present the concepts behind the WST in a feline fashion.This is a fully illustrated 78 card deck, with 22 Major Arcana cards and 56 Minor Arcana cards. The Major Arcana has the 22 familiar titles and ordering of a standard RWS deck. The Minor Arcana is divided into four suits of 14 cards each. The suits are Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles; each containing 10 number cards, and 4 Court cards – Page, Knight, Queen, and King. Wands are represented by cat toys, Cups by food and water bowls, Swords by the cats’ very own fangs and claws, and Pentacles by cat biscuits and food treats.
