5.0 out of 5 stars Great for beginners!!!, September 14, 2001
This book and card set taught me the basics of the Tarot which encouraged me to learn more. I purchased this deck since my other tarot cards never really worked for me. When I did the readings with the book I was quickly able to memorize the keyword associated with the card as well as the meanings in the different positions the cards were in.

The cards are small which is great for shuffling considering I have very small hands, other "regular sized" tarot cards are awkward to shuffle.

I'd recommend this set for beginners as a good head start for reading the tarot. Once this is accomplished reading other books for more in depth knowledge of tarot is a must.

5.0 out of 5 stars perfect for a BEGINNER , busy person, or Tarot collector, June 27, 2001
By Mad Midwest Maggie "MMM" (Southeastern, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This set is worth 5 stars to anyone new or new-ish to Tarot or people who don't have a lot of time and still want to get the benefits out of the clear and moral messages that Monte Farber makes clear. I especially like the one-card answer sections. You can ask with this deck a question like "What is blocking my success in my project" and have an answer in less than 5 minutes.

The cards are small, about the size of regular playing cards, which makes them easier for the novice to shuffle. They have a nicely moody feeling to them (did Amy Zerner design them or Stevie Nicks?) Seriously, I enjoy Amy Zerner's work on this deck and wouldn't mind a larger showy set of these cards. There are a lot of rich colors in this deck and it's origionality makes it perfect for the Tarot collector.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Cards and Easy to Use, August 31, 2004
I have been using this set for a couple years and find the cards to be beautifully detailed and the book easy to use with accurate, precise interpretations. Anyone can pick it up and get an incredibly good reading with no previous knowledge of Tarot.
The only reason I didn't give this set a "5" rating is that leafing through the book to find the proper interpretation can be distracting...I have solved this problem by applying tabs to the sections of the Major & Minor Arcana and the suits. For anyone beginning with Tarot or wanting an "unbiased" interpretation .....this set is terrific!

This wasn't quite as helpful as I'd hoped but it might prove more useful over time. It is fairly easy to read and the cards are extremely well illustrated.
