Designed by
Karen Vogel and
Vicki Noble, this is probably the first round
tarot deck. All 78 cards are 4.5 inches in
diameter, with a
yellow and
orange back. It is published by
U.S. Games in
Belgium, and was first released in
1981. A small 24-page
booklet is included. Unlike later
feminist decks, this one does include
men on cards and is not especially
militant in design. Books were released by the designers to
accompany the deck, including Vicki Noble's
Motherpeace: A Way to the Goddess Through Myth, Karen Vogel's
Motherpeace Tarot Guidebook, and the
Motherpeace Tarot Playbook by Vicki Noble and Jonathan Tenney. A
miniature version of the deck is also available, with cards three inches in diameter.
