On May 1st 1776 Johann Adam Weishaupt founded "Der Illuminaten Orden" in the Electorate of Bavaria. He adopted the name of "Brother Spartacus" within the order and established a documented connection with masonic guilds. Even encyclopedia references vary on the goal of the order, such as New Advent saying the Order was not egalitarian or democratic internally, but sought to promote the doctrines of equality and freedom throughout society; while others such as Collier's have said the aim was to combat religion and foster rationalism in its place.

The Nocturnal Deck, by Collectable Playing Cards, is a crisp feature deck that will stand out in any type of collection. The dark, yet vivid, colors stand out amidst a flurry of radical spikes and cracks. A contrast of dark blues and dark reds are combined against a black and silver card. The colors grow from dark to light creating a stunning fan. The backs of the cards feature floating spheres that pop off the card. Grey spikes and cracks surround the background and a red wave spirals into the center of the blue abyss. The face cards are saturated in a blue and red glow. You can tell they have been awake for days. For scans of each card www.marytcusack.com/maryc/decks/html/Cards/Nocturnal.html
