The Aquarian Tarot was created in the 1970s by David Palladini, an artist and illustrator known for his work on children's books and advertisements. Palladini was inspired by the Tarot de Marseille and the Rider-Waite-Smith deck, but wanted to create a more modern and visually appealing deck. The Aquarian Tarot is known for its colorful and detailed illustrations, as well as its inclusion of astrological symbols and elemental correspondences. It is considered a classic and influential deck within the Tarot community.Â
