3.0 out of 5 stars nice...but!, 1 Feb 2007
By Kalfu (Savannah, Georgia) - See all my reviews
I am a psychic reader and normaly use Fortune Telling or Divination Cards to read. One of my friend gave me a deck of these cards as a present as she knows that I am initiated into an Afro-Brazilian Tradition.

The images on these card are beautiful, as are the associations between Orixas and the images of the Mayor Arcana. The Emperor is depicted as Ogum, The Devil as Exu, The Moon shows the Orixa Obba...amazingly beautifull cards!

What I find difficult however is to look at the Orixas depicted on these cards and to interprete the cards according to Tarot Meanings. There is so much more to the orixa Obba then to the card that she is associated with - The Moon. Iemanja has so much more to say then The High Priestess and Orunmila's message is by far deeper then The World (the card he is associated with)...

As a practitioner and initiate of Afro-Brazilian religion I have to remind myself that this is not an Orixa/Orisha divination tool, but simply a cute tarot deck. Orixa does not speak through these cards!

What anoyes me most however is the ignoranze of the publisher! There is no such thing as "Afro-Brazilian Santeria"! Its either called Candomble, Umbanda or - if you want to use slang - Macumba. But I guess marketing reasons forbid the use of the correct terminology!?
