5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent Tarot Deck, February 17, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Crowley Deck (Misc. Supplies)

This Tarot deck earns it's 10 and more. It is beautifully illustrated and easy to comprehend. It is best for those more knowing of esoteric arts but it can also be easily used by the beginner. All of the Minor Arcana have a word at the bottom of the card, making it easy to remember the meaning. Even if you are not a fan of Aleister Crowley, this deck is still a great divination tool and has served me well many times.

5.0 out of 5 stars LARGE AND BEAUTIFUL, July 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Crowley Deck (Misc. Supplies)

This edition of the Crowley deck is truly a handful and I found shuffling a tad awkward. However, what a truly amazing sight they are to behold when they are spread out before you in their giant splendor. The colors are similar to the watercolors that you see in impressionist paintings and mostly greens and blues are used to create a dreamy effect. I think Lady Harris, the artist, succeeds with her color schema. Her colors produces a watery and ethereal feeling, which is laced with a strong tenor of surrealism. The overall effect is a nebulous and fantastical feel. Lady Harris is particualrly gifted in capturing dichotomous human instincts beautifully. This deck is a favorite of mine and I highly recommend it. Lady Harris conveys the fantasy, ecstasy, pain and brilliance of the human experience with true empathy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Excellent deck, but too big and the colours are *dead*., April 27, 2000

I like the Thoth deck a lot, but this edition has two major problems.

First, the cards are rather large which make the deck hard to shuffle.

Second, the cards have a greenish hue and the colours are somewhat dead, especially compared to the other edition.

Personally, I recommnd people to buy the smaller livlier coloured edition.
