Description:
The creator of this tarot, Karen West, has been rather clever in choosing mathematical ideas to somehow reflect the ideas behind the Majors, though understandably it was not entirely possible to extend this throughout the Minors. Thus the Fool is one of the chaos fractal patterns known as the Lorenz attractor, The Magician is the Uncertainty Principle, the Empress is Potential Energy, while the Emperor is E=MC2 the mass energy equivalence. The Tower is the Fermat Conjecture and the Star the Reimann Hypothesis.
