The Egg Experiment

How much of a tarot reading is based on the images in a tarot deck, and how much is based on the inherent meaning of the cards?

If you’re an experienced tarot reader, you might be surprised.

Try this experiment: Look at the cards in this imaginary “Egg Tarot” deck, and tell me if you could glean entirely different readings from each picture, based solely on what you know about the same cards in a traditional tarot deck.
