Feng Shui

The Feng Shui Tarot is a family affair the review documents precisely: Peter Paul Connolly drew the cards and wrote sections of the companion book, his mother Eileen Connolly, of this catalog's polarizing Connolly Tarot, wrote the LWB and most of the text, a mother-son collaboration folding feng shui's elemental and harmonic principles into tarot's structure. The synthesis is less arbitrary than East-West deck marriages usually run; both systems are, at root, technologies for reading energetic arrangement. The Connolly house style carries over, instructional, reassuring, system-forward, and the feng shui layer gives their gentleness an architectural rationale: harmony as the explicit goal rather than the softened side effect. It suits feng shui practitioners curious about cartomancy, Connolly readers extending the family shelf, East-West synthesis collectors, and readers who want their draws to come with placement advice. Purists of either tradition will file objections the deck has already harmoniously arranged.
