Top 22: Classic Hits of the Major Arcana
I just had to share this with you - it’s an album of ’80s hits my brother and sister-in-law made for me on my birthday last year - one for each of the tarot majors. The songs and artists are listed below :) Now I’ve discovered there’s an ’80s tarot online as well, whose origins may be loosely related. It’s fun - check it out!

I was bummed that the 80’s tarot site didn’t include any pictures! I’d love to see a tarot deck based on Magic Realm. :-)

It does include pictures! Maybe you didn’t wait long enough for them to load? Each card is shown - if you click on it it will enlarge :) - Teresa
