Description
Book of Kaos Tarot review by Solandia
The Book of Kaos Tarot is a self-published 80-card Tarot created
by Australian artist Orryelle Defenestrate-Bascule. The deck was first
released in 1991 as the Bohemian Tarot, but for this edition almost half
of the major arcana have been updated to form the deck into an
“inter-sect-ion of Chaos Magick and the double aeonic current of Horus
and Maat”.
The suits are Staves, Cups, Swords and Pentacles, while the court
cards are Page, Knight, Queen and King. There are actually 24 major
arcana cards, as there are two differing Lovers cards, and two Devil
cards, one with Pan and one with Baphomet. Some titles of the Majors
have been altered to a more Thoth-like titling.
