Russell Grant is a British astrologer, television personality, and author known for his work in the field of astrology. Russell Grant's Astrology Club Tarot was published in 1999 in connection with Russell's live telephone readings service. Only the 22 traditional major trump cards were published in this edition, but a 64-card version had been published in 1998 by Virgin Publishing which included additional astrological cards. A book about the cards was also published by David Westnedge Ltd in 1992, and Virgin Publishing in 1998. The illustrations are by Kay Smith. Although Tarot has its origins in Medieval times, the themes and symbols are still relevant to our modern lives. Many people find they can quickly realise and develop an affinity with symbolic images in the deck. Visit Russell Grant's Tarot & Psychic webpages.

I am the founder of The World of Playing Cards (est. 1996), a website dedicated to the history, artistry and cultural significance of playing cards and tarot. Over the years I have researched various areas of the subject, acquired and traded collections and contributed as a committee member of the IPCS and graphics editor of The Playing-Card journal. Having lived in Chile, England, Wales, and now Spain, these experiences have shaped my work and passion for playing cards. Amongst my achievements is producing a limited-edition replica of a 17th-century English pack using woodblocks and stencils—a labour of love. Today, the World of Playing Cards is a global collaborative project, with my son Adam serving as the technical driving force behind its development. His innovative efforts have helped shape the site into the thriving hub it is today. You are warmly invited to become a contributor and share your enthusiasm.
