Builders of the Adytum (B.O.A.T) tarot deck- 5/3/19

I was nudged by a friend of mine who posted a picture of some tarot cards to research them. They were black and white and had the archetype tarot images on them. I have a curious mind. I’ve always been that way. I have a desire to know it’s history and how they came to be. I’m like that with people as well. I want to know all about them- what makes them tick, their life experiences etc. (Of course, some people are private and don’t want to share themselves. I respect their boundaries.) I digress though.

I posted an image on these cars above. They are part of the Builders of The Adytum (B.O.A.T.) tarot deck. They were created by Paul Foster Case ( 10/3/1884- 3/2/ 54) They were adapted loosely from the Rider-Waite deck which is the most common and best known tarot decks used by readers.

Case created the B.O.A.T. which is a religious organization dedicated to spiritual attunement through study, practice and meditation.

Case adamantly believed that each student needed to color his or her own deck and refused to issue a colored deck.

So, there it is. The more you know….
