As an interesting bridge to understanding, some years ago I created
a Tarot deck in sign language using Sign Writing to translate
the basic spiritual concepts of the ancient spiritual tool into
ASL. The readings were always interesting and fascinated both
my Deaf and hearing friends. Here is a bridge from a visual intuitive
system to a visual language.
This deck is available to anyone interested, I just have to
retrieve it and try to retype it all as it is written "receptively"
not the present "projective" standard.
