Notes:
Ken Knutson created the photo-collage cards under the direction of James Wanless. The names of two of the suits are changed: Swords become Crystals and Pentacles become Worlds. Wands represent spiritual qualities, Cups emotional, Crystals mental and Worlds are for physical or wordly qualities.

The  court cards are sage, child, woman and man. The Minors have, in adition to tarot-titles, descriptive titles. Several of the Major Arcana have been renamed : Justice became Balance; Temperance changed to Art;  Devil's Play instead of The Devil; Judgment is Time-Space; The World became The Universe.

The back design shows a cross-section, composite view of DNA .

The Voyager tarot was first published by Merrill-West Publishing in 1986. Mine is the later, smaller edition from 2008 by Fair Winds Press.
