I have always been attracted to Tarot decks that use a significant amount of esoteric symbolism. "Tarot of Color" follows the attributes of the Golden Dawn, making use of associations with color, Qabalah, numerology, the Tree of Life, the Elements, astrology and more. This deck ranks with what I consider to be the best of the occult decks, including Lon Milo DuQuette's "Tarot of Ceremonial Magic" and the Free Mason based "Square & Compasses Tarot", by W. Bro P.C.Browne PZ.

The "Tarot of Color" goes one step farther, in that there are no illustrations on the cards, only glyphs for the Elemental and Astrological attributions, text, and the color coding of the cards. (The 3" X 5" cards are color coded using the Golden Dawn system of color associations.)

While not a deck for beginners, the "Tarot of Color" can be used for readings, for meditation, in ritual and ceremonial work, as flash cards for teaching purposes, and combined with one or more decks in a comparative reading. In fact, the "Tarot of Color" works in a very unique manner in comparative readings, in that it does not necessarily give new information on its own, but acts as a catalyst for intuitive flashes into the other decks being used.

I am just beginning to work with this deck, but am looking forward to using it over the next year in conjunction with a series of teleclasses that address the esoteric nature of Tarot.
