The Aquarian Tarot is a popular deck designed by David Mario Palladini in the early 1970s. As he says, "A man walked into my painting class at art school in New York and asked me to design a Tarot deck for his publishing company....The Pictorial Key to the Tarot by Arthur Waite became my guide as I created the Aquarian Tarot Deck." Pallidini uses an art deco style with medieval imagery. The figures on his deck are solemn and dignified with a marble-like pallor in many cases. Their faces reveal little obvious emotion. In 1996, the artist created another deck called the New Pallidini. There is a separate companion book for this deck called Psychic Tarot.
