The cards in the Stone Tarot Deck are reproduced from original
oil paintings by artist Alison Stone. Ms. Stone has spent a decade
producing the paintings, which represent her interpretation of the divination
deck, using color to evoke the spiritual and emotional meanings of the cards.
Using her background as a poet, artist, healer and Wiccan Priestess,
she combines art and mysticism to produce a deck which reflects the
integration and synthesis of the two. The deck consists of seventy-nine cards: the 22 Major Arcana,
the 56 Minor Arcana divided intalisonstone.infoo four suits, and a blank card for those who
incorporate that into their readings. Each suit has four face cards,
while the ace through ten are numbered
representations of each suit (pips). The reproductions are of high quality,
maintaining the artistic integrity of the original paintings. Included
is a one-sheet discussion of tarot, card interpretations, and a sample
spread. The deck comes shrink-wrapped in a cardboard box with a plastic
cover. The cards are 3 and 1/4 inches by 5 inches, with an original
abstract as the common back. The deck follows the classical tarot naming and numbering
tradition with one minor variation; it is gender balanced. For two of the
Minor Arcana suits, the Page is a male and the rider on the horse is a female
(Amazon). For the other two suits, the Page is a female and the rider
is a male (Knight). **********************************************************************************

second poetry book – a tarot companion book Parallel Press is pleased to announce the publication of From the Fool to the World, a new
collection of poetry by Alison Stone (Parallel Press, 2012). The poems in this collection make up a
series in the voices of the Major Arcana of the tarot. Stone’s poetry
extends and complements her own work as a visual artist in creating the Stone
Tarot. The poems are rich with visual language and are filled with stories of
light, journeys, and transformation: If you won’t dance, /then
who’s the fool? / Inside my cloth bag – apple, table, stallion,
sky. / Come! The rich / cliff tempts like wine.
