Hi everyone, this video is Part One of a series on the Russian Tarot of St Petersburg by Yury Shakov. This deck weaves together traditional Rider Waite Symbolism with the political and social history of Russia from the 900s AD to the fall of the USSR. In this video, I explore these themes within the symbolism of the Major Arcana.
