Angel Tarot
The Angel Tarot deck incorporates the designs of several traditional Western tarots, including the Tarot of Marseilles, Tarot Classic and Starter Tarot. It is one of the first complete tarot decks to originate in Japan (the Angel Playing Card Manufacturing Company of Japan). The colors of each card are rendered in medieval tones, primarily browns, oranges and reds. Traditional suit signs of spades, hearts, diamonds and clubs are woven into the geometric designs of the Minor Arcana. Despite its name, the Angel Deck does not focus on the theme of angels in any particular way.
