The Sacred India Tarot is unique in its synthesis of two mystical and meditational streams of world culture the Tarot and Indian mythology. They blend amazingly well without compromising their own truths and cultural integrity. The Sacred India Tarot is the first and only Tarot deck to work solely within the parameters of sacred Indian mythology almost the only living mythology today. Millions of people daily worship, or meditate upon, the deities depicted within. This gives The Sacred India Tarot an unmatched spiritual power and contemporary resonance.
The Major Arcana depicts the archetypal forms of the gods and goddesses of India. The Indian epics, the Ramayana and Mahabharata, form two of the themes depicted in the suits of the Minor Arcana. Other themes in the suits include the life of the Buddha, and the great love story of the culture that of Shiva and Parvati.
The comprehensive, knowledgeable text in The Sacred India Tarot Handbook (which is also available as part of the Tarot deck) explains the illustrations as well as their context within the Tarot. It provides insights on various aspects of Tarot, Indian mythology, card meanings, doing readings, and also includes unique spreads using Indian symbolism.
