Greetings, KakaSaku fans! On this Winter Solstice it is finally time to divine the winner of the Tarot Art Contest! But such a thing is not left merely up to fate; YOU, the humble voter, may participate in deciding the winner! In fact, this contest will be decided on the sole basis of popular vote.
You may vote for as many entries as you choose! However, in the event of a tie, a tie-breaker poll will be held, and you will only be able to vote for one entry if it reaches that point. In theory such a process will continue until winners are decided for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place!
Even though this contest is decided by popular vote only and no judging, it doesn't mean that you shouldn't weigh your vote carefully before choosing which entry or entries you vote for. Please keep the following things in mind when voting:
- Did the artist incorporate themes, symbols, and significance from the original card? For more information on tarot card meanings,

- Naturally there will be a subjective angle to this-- which one is most aesthetically appealing to you?
