5.0 out of 5 stars Why a Round Deck?, March 3, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Tarot of the Cloisters Deck (Cards)

There is a growing movement amoung readers to not reverse cards during a reading. The theory is that any card contains the possibility of both meanings, depending on the placement in a spread, the surrounding cards and the interpretation of the reader. I use cards only upright myself with great success. Then I started reading with round decks. Suddenly, instead of uprght or reversed, there are an infinite number of degrees that can be read into any card. The energy of any card can be pushed or held back. There are other round decks, but this is the first round deck I have found that anybody can read from. I highly reccommend this deck to anyone.

The Tarot of the Cloisters is a very unique deck in that the cards are round. Illustrated to look like Tiffany stainglass with bright colorful illustrations. I immediately connected with this deck! It is also a favorite among my many clients. (I like to allow the client to choose the deck I read from...) I have given many profound readings using the Tarot of the Cloisters. Thank you Michelle Leavitt for creating such a wonderful deck!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of tarot for beginners who appreaciate beauty, November 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Tarot of the Cloisters Deck (Cards)

While the illustrations are intense and briliant, the cards themselves are very easy to read, and the intruction booklet is short and sweet. I recieved them as a gift for my 16th birthday, and I recommend them to any beginner.Their round shape makes it a little tough to shuffle, but it is easily resolved with practice. So far, the cards have been freakishly accurate since I pulled them out of the box for the first time. Appropriate for both the most inexperienced beginner and the tarot enthusiast, it is a safe purchase for anyone interested in tarot.
