I have been researching tarot decks because I am toying with the idea of getting one. I am wary of the idea, and so am obsessively looking at reviews for various options.

Omigosh: there is a Tarot of Jane Austen. The suits are Coins (Pentacles), Quills (Swords), Candlesticks (Wands) and Teacups (Cups).

No reason to be wary of Tarot

The Tarot deck was created for playing card games similar to Bridge and Sheepshead. Tarot cards were not originally designed for the occult. For those wary of the occult, I would reccomend a reproduction deck as such decks were actually used for card playing despite currently being sold for divination. Ancient Italian Tarot is a good one in my opinion. There are also modern Tarot or Tarock decks used for game playing and they contain the standard playing card suits of hearts, spades, clubs, and diamonds. These modern playing decks can be seen here www.tarock.net.
The mainstream press does not usually tell the entire truth about Tarot.
See my blog "What is Tarot?" to see aspects of Tarot not often covered by mainstream publishers.
