About the Waite Deck
The illustrations of the rider waite tarot cards were designed in 1909 by Pamela Coleman Smith, under the direction of Arthur Edward Waite, and symbolize all the richness of life and its events.
This series of 78 allegorical illustrations was published that same year by William Rider and Son. These synergies gave birth to a tarot that sets the parameters for all subsequent tarot decks. According to Arthur Edward Waite, this rider waite tarot presents itself as the rectifying tarot, filling the lack of a normative tarot that casts illustrations highlighting the mysticism, imagination, ritual, fantasy, and deep emotions of the artist.
All the cards in this tarot, even those of the minor arcana, present scenes complete with figures and symbols (instead of the mere enumeration of the number and suit).
Waite said that his Tarot is a symbolic representation of humanity’s collective memory, and he considers the cards to be important tools for self-knowledge.
