I personally found dark undertones in even celebratory images like the 3 of Coins, which shows a child performing joyfully near Banjhakri and Banjhakrini having successfully completed their shaman training. Further reading revealed that they kidnap children and put them under physical and other rigorous testing, and kill the ones who don't succeed. I don't personally believe this matches the cooperation traditionally implied by that card considering the story itself has children under duress.

You set about laying out the cards and find they whisper in sing-song voice. “Once upon a time,” entrances the High Priestess as she opens her book to read to you. “In this story, YOU are the fairy godmother,” declares The Magician as they wave their wand. “Here be dragons!” cautions The Devil. And on, and on, they go into the “happily ever after,” with The World.

By the light of the moon, Scheherazade told a story so witty and interesting that when dawn broke and the story was only half done, Shahryar allowed her to live another night to finish her story. In this way, Scheherazade spent 1001 nights telling stories that were romantic, epic, moralistic, ridiculous, and righteous. Through these stories, Shahryar forgot his hate, became a compassionate monarch again, and relearned how to love with Scheherazade. " Tarot of the Divine The idea of linking fairy-tale folklore and the Tarot is very interesting. These phenomena have a lot in common. Legends and fairy tales are the concentration of the wisdom of our ancestors. This is a collection of symbols and archetypes, ideas about the world, about good and evil. Since the cards really do draw from stories from around the world, some may be very familiar while others will be completely foreign. Since I grew up in the United States, with Western history and storytelling tradition, I can easily recognize the Emperor as King Arthur (with the sword in the stone): The path to enlightenment is unique for each of us, but many of the lessons we learn are shared stories passed among cultures and generations. Yoshi has done a great job of reworking the heritage of world folklore and combining it with traditional Tarot symbols. Here are stories from all parts of the globe. These are children's fairy tales known to everyone, and legendary heroes of the epos and small magic stories.The Six of Swords represents leaving behind tumultuous waters for a future that is calm and promising. After being imprisoned by her own father, Danae and her young son Perseus escape. Perseus will eventually grow to defeat the gorgon Medusa. The first is The Beauty and the Beast, which the LWB says "China, Danish Fairy Tale" but the book says "China, Chinese Fairy Tale." As far as I can tell, the creator used the Chinese folktale “The Fairy Serpent” in the book, but kept the Western, Disney-inspired Beast imagery rather than a serpent for some reason. Each local story has its own national flavor, but many of them have common motifs and similar plots. Myths and legends are passed down from generation to generation and unite different cultures and peoples around the world. I created this book to help any tarot reader—from brand-new to experienced readers—form a deeper understanding of tarot.
