I'm pretty much a lover of Lo Scarabeo's as many daring, creative, innovative and wonderful illustrators comes from there. Oh, and never leaving out the amazing young Victoria Frances from Fournier too. Her illustrations are awesome. However, I'm still loyal to my RWS deck for it was where I began understanding my tarot path and experiencing what tarot has to offer each and every day. Though decks shown here are of my possession but I do welcome interested buyers to mail me if any would like to own these decks someday.
This is Tarot Of The Renaissance, printed in China. Hence, Chinese description for each card has been added in. A special deck for collection. Quality of the cards are also pleasant. Smooth yet not highly glossed. From upper left and lower left, you will see the Queen of Wands and King of Wands, followed by the Queen of Cups and the King of Cups. Lastly, it's The High Priestess and The Magician of the Major Arcana.
This is Fey Tarot, a colorful deck which enhances more visually. It is a very mystifying deck comprising of creative creatures and human forms but you'll see that they're all in many different shades and colors. As you see here, each of the cards presented are of the same attribute from the first deck's introduction:-Queen of Wands, King of Wands, Queen of Chalices, King of Chalices, The Seer and the The Magician.
Now this, is a very special deck as it has two sides of the same picture. Tarot Of The Secret Forest. Only the back is illustrated in black and white. Both sides can be used during interpretation and that is what makes this deck so special. As from what you're seeing in this picture, the back of this card is actually the 10 of Coins. Notice that color specification is also very visible in this deck though the image themselves may appear in blurry forms. However, in this deck, description of each card is in numbers and symbol forms rather than wordings. So this deck may be suitable for advanced and professional readers while beginners will find it rather difficult to absorb what the deck has to say.
This is an oracle deck, called the Gypsy Witch Fortune Telling Cards. More or less like Lenormand style fortune telling. Only in this deck, anyone can read as long as they understand what the card description is about, as the meanings of each card is clearly stated right on the cards themselves. Suitable for all levels of readers, friends who're having gatherings in resorts or on holidays while seeking for some 'quick guidance' but lack of reading experiences. This deck is rather highly glossed though. For those who goes for low to medium glossed decks, maybe they will not opt for this deck.
Ah~the mythology of the Norse..this is The Vikings, where you'll discover ancient lores of the Norse gods and giant creatures..all beautifully depicted in each and every card..low glossed. It'll simply amaze you when you study the image of each card..the expressions, the environment..Oh,well..as for the rest of the exploration, you may experience them yourself when you have your own deck..
Soon, I will be adding in more of other decks and I certainly do welcome enthusiast who would love to discuss about these decks as it will be meaningful to be able to share what each and everyone of us feels towards tarot itself..
