I got this deck (along with the large book) a short while ago, and I am completely in love!

Reading with playing cards can seem a daunting task, this deck and the authors guidance make it seem natural and yet magical. These cards and the illustrations are just resplendent and breathtaking. Very evocative and they convey the intuition, mood, feel and ambience of the card powerfully. The colours are done in stark red, black and white along with muted colours which is simple, yet gorgeously perfect.

I love the backs. A darker cream yellow with swirling symbols in black. Great for focus and concetration as you shuffle. The little white book that comes with it is very informative for being so small. It should get one started right off. But I do also HIGHLY reccommend the actual full size book which I reviewed as well on Amazon. The insights, teachings, essays and sheer joy of the book is beyond monetary value, as are the cards.

The cardstock is very good, with not too slick lamination. They are slightly bigger than normal playing cards, which IMO is much better, the images jump out at you and you can see the incrediable detail. They are the perfect size. They feel "at home" in my hands.

This deck will bring you stunning insight and tranformation, if you're at all interested in divination I cannot reccommend this highly enough.

Wow. I can't believe I found this book. There are so few books on this subject and I have always been intrigued with the idea of reading playing cards. The book takes you step by step and shows you how to do card readings in a way that I could easily understand. I learned Tarot at one time but never felt like it really resonated with me. I have been doing some simple card spreads since reading this book and it feels really good. I already do readings with astrology and am excited about integrating this into my sessions. Also, the illustrations in the book show you a picture for each card that is beautiful and sometimes haunting. I will probably order the deck that goes with the book, just for the artwork alone. For now I am enjoying doing readings with just a regular deck. I definitely recommend this.

I ordered the complete set, book and the deck, and I have to tell you, there is nothing remotely attractive about these cards!! She has her own version of playing card meanings (I wanted to learn how to tell fortunes with regular playing cards, thought these'd help - WRONG!!) - and was an idiot to send for this set...the cards are gloomy, dull, and creepy!!! and she also has her own numbering system; I mean, did you ever hear of the 13 of Hearts!!!?? please......oh well, we live and learn....meanwhile I'll continue my 'quest' for a book that just tells how to do what her book and deck certainly do not...........
