Talk:Astrological origin of Tarot

From Tarotpedia

[edit] Title?

Wouldn't it be better to title this something like "Astrological influences on the development of the Tarot"? The current title implies that the Tarot arose out of Astrology or something. In fact, perhaps there could be an entry like "Esoteric Influences on the development of the Tarot" and this entry could be placed under that new one? (Other influences would include Alchemy, Kaballah, ...)

(This area is not exactly my forte, so i would prefer someone else carry the ball on this.)

_____________________

I updated the Tarot History page to accomodate alternate origin possiblities and related iconography. Hopefully that will help.

I DO think that related iconography especially is very important. Perhaps there is a better way of phrasing and dividing this up? I also want to allow for the Bardic theory and the 5x14 theory to be represented (as well as others).

best, robert
