The Philosopher's Tarot

Philosophers, psychologists, free thinkers, and revolutionaries — their lives, personalities, and ideas make up this twist on this otherwise straightforward reproduction of the Waite-Smith images. The majors and courts largely (although not entirely) depict famous thinkers from the Renaissance onward, whereas the minors (and a few of the majors) reflect philosophical concepts aligned with the cards' traditional meanings. We particularly like the image of the grieving woman on the Nine of Swords being replaced by a cockroach, with the keyword title "The Metamorphosis" — if ya get it, ya get it.
