5.0 out of 5 stars Good buy - a gentle and simple introduction to Tarot reading, June 29, 1998

This review is from: The Love Tarot: Uses the Power of the Mystic Deck to Guide You in Love, Romance and Sex (Hardcover)

I must admit I bought this pack on a whim when a local bookseller was having a clearance sale. I had always been a little bit curious about Tarot cards, but had never used them before or even had a reading.

Sarah Bartlett's booklet and the beautifully illustrated cards are a joy to use. They are fun to use and a gentle introduction to using Tarot cards to assess your present and divine your future. I was surprised to see that they actually work! (I was a bit of a sceptic.) I even tried them on my brother (who is a total sceptic). He rushed his reading, selecting cards without much thought or contemplation, and yet the cards he picked tied in with his current situation and the question he asked. (I think they showed more than he was prepared to admit...)

In a very short period of time, I got up to speed on using the simple four card spread and also the mystic seven spread. My wife and I have asked very specific questions of them, and been amazed at how accurately the cards showed our current feelings, challenges and glimpsed the future.

I would recommend them to anyone who has grown bored of reading generalised astrology readings in the popular press, and would like something more personal and fun.

I love working with this deck. The pictures are so alive, they actually trigger my intuition. I used my old pack so often, they wore out. I had to get a new pack.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Package for More Experienced Card Reader, February 2, 2003

This review is from: The Love Tarot: Uses the Power of the Mystic Deck to Guide You in Love, Romance and Sex (Hardcover)

The gorgeous cards in this deck of "Love Tarot" cards convey the meaning of traditional tarot with an interesting blend of Victorian and New Age styles. The twenty-two cards included in this deck are known as the Major Arcana, or the face-cards, of the tarot. A sturdy box holds both the book and cards so they can easily be stored and transported. The slender book that accompanies these cards whets the reader's appetite to learn more, while providing only the most basic interpretation of the significance of the card. Because the book does not provide tremendous detail on the meaning of the cards, this deck is better suited for people who are already somewhat familiar with the reading tarot cards.
