Prudence is the new card in the Tarot of Prague
Good sense, restraint, self-control, a rational amount of caution. A certain moderation - and thinking before acting.
Sister to Temperance, Strength and Justice.
We just felt that we should restore this cardinal virtue to the deck. She is there in the Minchiate (the old Florentine 97-card deck that is half-forgotten now) and we did sneak her into the first edition of Tarot of Prague (you can find her in one corner if you look carefully through Pentacles :-) ) but this time we wanted her to play a full part. She can be taken out of the deck and it can be read as a conventional RWS 78 cards, but I would urge anyone to leave her in and read with her there. I think she has a lot to say.
So - the first world preview (hey!) here she is - her border and title is not on this picture yet:
We reprint tomorrow. Oh, that will be a good day I hope!
