Description I'm creating a tarot deck for my own use. It's probably gonna end full of faggotry... Oh well... Here are the first 4 cards on the Major Arcana:

The Fool, wandering roads, clueless, towards the hardships of life, with hope in his heart and nothing on his head. A dog follow him, able to sense future dangers and opportunities with its well developed senses, while The Fool will not. Means new beginnings, new adventures, lack of resources for future tasks, sense of adventure, a leap of faith.

The Magician, full of life and promissing talents, trying his best to show his value. In his table we can see that his working tools are the famed Elemental Instruments, the plate/disc of earth, the cup of water, the club of fire and the small sword of air. A symbol of how progressing in life demands control over our possessions (earth), our emotions (water), our desires (fire) and our minds (air). Means action, self confidence, manipulation, personal power and use of abillities.

The Priestess, peacefully holding instruments of knowlegde. She wields the feminine power of Intuition and is able to reveal the truth by mysterious ways. A personification of peace, discovery, study and meditation. Means wisdom, serenity, sound judgement, sixth senses and intuition.

The Empress, who holds the feminine power of growth and blooming. Her crown of 12 stars is a symbol for the passage of time. She sits on a field of wheat, presiding the earth and nurturing life. She is pregnant not with a child, but with the world itself. Means fertility, abundance, development, material gain, health and nature.

SHOOT! I'm doing an Adventure Time Major Arcana. Seeing your Empress Card makes me want to change the chraracter I used. You really nailed the iconography on these. Great stuff.

Love love love. I just really love the style and coloring. It just fits so well. Has a kind of a mystic feel to it.
The designs are inspired by other decks (like Rider-Waite) but you made them your own and they're just lovely.
