Japaridze Tarot

A reprint of the popular and innovative contemporary art tarot cards

This is a tarot card designed by Georgian-born female artist Nino Japaridze.

A contemporary Parisian artist has reimagined the world of tarot as an artist.

It has a Rider-Waite feel to it, but the original, innovative, and powerful illustrations that are not bound by form range from those that can be understood straightforwardly to those that require flexible interpretation, so you will never get bored.

The Major Arcana cards are 4 The Emperor (WAR), 6 The Lovers (LOVE), and 10 The Wheel of Fortune (FOURTUNE). The names have been changed to 12 The Hanged.

The Minor Arcana suits are Wands = FIRE, Swords = WINDS, Cups = TIDES, and Pentacles = GARDENS, and are represented by the elements (fire, wind, water, and earth).

The court cards are replaced with Page = Jester and Knight = Stranger.

The English guidebook has been revised to 180 pages in full color.

Comes in a hard cover box, and the backs of the cards are indistinguishable between upright and reversed.

Tarot cards are known as the "Rider version," "Waite version," and "Waite-Smith version" and are widely loved all over the world.

The first edition was published in 1909.
It was commissioned by Pamela Colman Smith to be painted by Arthur Edward Waite, a member of the Golden Dawn, a magical society founded in England in the 19th century.

The name comes from the last names of the two authors mentioned above, and also because the first edition was published by Rider Publishing.

These tarot cards feature standard, symbolic images that are easy to use for anyone, from beginners to professionals.
