The Canon's read
Tarot Canon's own assessment, written for this catalog.
Melinda Brown assembled this forty nine card set from her own Aboriginal spirituality first, then widened it with deities from a range of other traditions, plus a chakra framework on top, self-publishing the result rather than placing it with a house. Calling it a fusion is accurate rather than promotional: the deck draws on three distinct sources, Aboriginal spirituality, a wider set of deities, and the chakra system, combined into one working structure rather than kept as separate reference points.
Blending several independent traditions into one deck raises the same question, whether the combination clarifies each part or just crowds the frame, and how the figures and chakra points map onto individual cards is the first thing a buyer should ask. That Brown draws on her own spirituality as the anchor matters, since this reads as a personal synthesis rather than a borrowed one. It suits readers already comfortable with syncretic, multi tradition practice. Anyone expecting a single clear lineage should look elsewhere.
