The major arcana cards are based on the Waite/Smith deck designed by Pamela Colman-Smith in 1910 and are numbered 1-21. The Fool is unnumbered. The minor arcana cards are a mixture of Spanish-suited numeral cards (1-10) with Egyptian figures on the court cards. All cards have titles and divinatory interpretations printed in Spanish.
