Native American Cards

The 33 cards in this deck use the Native American way of life as symbols for universal meanings. The deck is divided into three series: the twelve totemic animals, seven gods and goddesses and twelve ritual objects. The Heavens card begins the pack and the Shaman card ends it. The Shaman is the mediator between heaven and earth, between man and the wisdom of Spirit. Each card shows the image with the name at the top and card number at the bottom. In the instruction booklet, Laura Tuan describes the overall symbolism and teachings of each card and gives a number of sample spreads for readings. She also provides specific meanings for each card for every position in two of the spreads - the Four Clans and Four Seasons. The artist if Massino Rotundo. This deck is produced by Lo Scarabeo in Italy, but is distributed in the US by Llewellyn.
