I love her work! My favorites of the deck, so far, are:
The World (this will work so well in my new room, when it’s finished!),
The Star,
The Hermit,
Ten of Pentacles,
Knight of Pentacles,
Page of Pentacles,
Eight of Cups,
Knight of Cups,
Queen of Cups,
Queen of Swords,
Page of Wands (foxes! *squee*)I think her Death illustration is the best representation I’ve seen, or maybe it just speaks to me more, because this is how I think 🙄
I still like Robin Wood’s version of the Two of Swords. I use The Druid Animal Oracle, Robin Wood Tarot, and Celtic Tree Oracle (in combination or depends on the question – the decks work differently for me).

June 3, 2008 at 9:55 pm #710233I’m the lovers! 😀
You are The Lovers
Motive, power, and action, arising from Inspiration and Impulse.The Lovers represents intuition and inspiration. Very often a choice needs to be made.
Originally, this card was called just LOVE. And that’s actually more apt than “Lovers.” Love follows in this sequence of growth and maturity. And, coming after the Emperor, who is about control, it is a radical change in perspective. LOVE is a force that makes you choose and decide for reasons you often can’t understand; it makes you surrender control to a higher power. And that is what this card is all about. Finding something or someone who is so much a part of yourself, so perfectly attuned to you and you to them, that you cannot, dare not resist. This card indicates that the you have or will come across a person, career, challenge or thing that you will fall in love with. You will know instinctively that you must have this, even if it means diverging from your chosen path. No matter the difficulties, without it you will never be complete.
It looks like the moon is pretty common, huh?

You are The Devil 😈
Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession
The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.
Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really “Satan” at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild – or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.
(No idea what they base it on, I changed the planet and then it comes up Moon…)
June 4, 2008 at 4:03 pm #710235You are The Empress
Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.
The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.

Thanks so much for sharing the Shadowscapes Taro link! I love her work, and its been ashamedly long since Ive seen it. Can’t wait till the deck comes out! I was just watching Carnivale last night and wishing I knew how to read tarot cards. I guess since the deck doesnt come out till 2009, it gives me time to learn 😉
