Angel

Twenty-two cards, major arcana only, is where this self-published deck by Maria Miduki and Michel Angela stops, and the choice to release only the trumps rather than a full 78 is itself a statement about what the creators considered essential. The titles run in Italian, and the archive flags one specific, deliberate departure: the fifth card is named Il Papa, the Pope, rather than the Hierophant, a direct nod to the old Tarot of Marseille naming convention even though the imagery elsewhere draws on Rider-Waite-style symbolism rather than Marseille's woodcut tradition. That combination, Marseille naming layered over Rider-Waite-descended pictures, makes this a hybrid rather than a purist's deck in either direction, and self-publication usually means a small run made by people working out one specific idea rather than chasing broad appeal. Readers fluent in both traditions get the most from spotting where one system's vocabulary sits on top of the other's imagery. If you read Italian, or you collect major-arcana-only decks as a category, put this one on the list.
