The Navigator’s Dream: Vol I: Riverlog

In Riverlog, the first volume of her new trilogy The Navigator's Dream, Julia Turk, artist and author of the well-known Navigators Tarot of the Mystic SEA Deck and Book, does it again with this rollicking and humorous, yet profound, look at the Pip cards of her deck. You will meet seven strange birds, twelve bizarre characters and a camel.

A psychiatrist, bored and dissatisfied with current theories of counseling, throws out a deck of tarot cards in ignorance. A cry and a puff of smoke from the wastebasket; a mishap during the navigation of a racing boat; and a meeting with a mysterious old man lead the Navigator on a fast moving adventure story where our protagonist meets and interacts with the figures in the cards, creating odd situations; solving surprising problems and sowing seeds of wisdom as each escapade unfolds.

Turks' newest creation, Riverlog, will bring some startling insights to tarot symbolism. This exciting new look at the tarot will be continued in the second volume of this trilogy Gulftide, where the Navigator interacts with the Court cards, and finally will culminate in Seatime the third volume, where Turk delves into the meaning of the mysterious Major Arcana.
