5.0 out of 5 stars – This is by far my favourite tarot deck ever

This is by far my favourite tarot deck ever. The artwork is stunning! It’s designed in RWS tradition but omg the pictures are so much better, far more expressive. The heavy cardstock and gilded edges give this deck an incredibly rich feel. Yes, it can make it a little hard to shuffle but it’s worth it. If you like tarot decks that give a subtle and gentle read this isn’t the deck for you. The messages this deck give are very straightforward and upfront. That’s how I prefer it actually. I normally don’t keep the boxes tarot cards come in but this box is an exception. Extremely sturdy and beautiful as well. I keep my deck in there along with the book all the time now. The book is very well written and gives a wonderful explanation of the cards for those who are still learning. All in all, I can’t give enough stars 10! 17! 42! Best deck ever!
