5.0 out of 5 stars As Heavenly As the Title Implies, February 3, 2000

As you browse the images of this celestial vision, you have to wonder if the man who created them is not an angel himself. Vividly beautiful and breathtaking illustrations juxtaposed against eerily-haunting, emotional expressions make this deck a quintessential must have for those drawn to the spiritual plane. Mr. Sexton is definitely in touch with the wide-eyed wonderment and imagination that slowly fade in us as we age. He has resurrected the dreamer and the part of the soul that keeps these legends alive century after century. The artwork, itself, is a Neoclassic throwback to the times of the Great Masters with a hint of expressionism to soften the lines. I highly recommend this work. Purchase this deck.

5.0 out of 5 stars If You Love Angels, this is for YOU!, January 2, 2000

I have had an angel collection for years. I recently purchased the Winged Spirit Tarot cards because I wanted to add it to my collection. I was pleased with my find! The visual artistry on each card is beautiful. Each angel is inspiring and the stories about the angels are fascinating. Obviously the author, David Sexton, went to great lengths to find unique descriptions and legends. I recommend this tarot deck for anyone who has a love for beauty.

This review is from: Winged Spirit Tarot: 78-Card Deck (Misc. Supplies)

I have collected a few art decks here and there since I was a child, many of which are too big or just otherwise not suited to actual tarot readings.
I wanted to finally start doing some real readings, and bought this on Amazon having liked what I saw of the imagery (wasn't too simplistic or primitive, too cartoonish or tacky looking.) The cards are also a good size to fit my hands. Unfortunately, the deck is unusable, and the imagery isn't even worth keeping it as an art deck to admire every now and then. My initial impression of the art, before I ordered the deck, was mistaken. The figures are reminiscent of characters from an 80s video game, or some bad web comic. The back of every single card is stamped with "1999USGAMES," which is annoying. But the reason the deck is unusable is because the cards are not smooth. They are laminated with some sticky plastic that makes them stick together, almost impossible to shuffle or spread, or work with at all. I don't know what the people who make these were thinking, but this is a really crappy deck. Don't waste the 14 bucks.
