Every card in The Secret Tarot has its own soul and a voice that whispers forgotten things to the hearts of all who will listen.

This deck, a work of art in itself, will also serve as a powerful divinatory tool. The companion booklets for most Lo Scarabeo decks are in five languages: English, Spanish, French, Italian, and German.
