"Rachel Pollack's Shining Tribe Tarot deck is like coming home to the roots of Tarot- that place where images provoke meanings that surface from inner places that formed early on. Her images draw from the root of ancient sources and civilizations, building a bridge from the soul, back to that central place we are all innately connected to, but often forget.

It is not known exactly where and when the tarot came into existence. Some believe that it originated in ancient Egypt and was brought to Europe by the Rom, or "Gypsies," as they traveled to Europe from India. The oracle's first appearance in Europe appears to have been in the late fourteenth century, probably in Italy, either as a complete seventy-eight card deck or two smaller decks that were later combined to form the version we use today.
