Australian Contemporary Dreamtime Tarot

The result of the author's experiences in the Kimberley region of Australia in 1960. The 78 Australian Dreamtime Tarot cards bear little visual resemblance to a standard tarot deck. Based on aboriginal art forms. Cards are renamed and numbered using a primitive counting device using different-sized dots. For example, the Tower is 'Bibaringa' and has three large dots for three fives and one small dot. The suits are Swords or Muggils (stone knives), Rods are Kundas (decorated digging sticks/staffs), Cups are Coolamons (carrying containers) and Discs are Wariats (sacred totem stones).
