Reviews
immediately drawn to the abstract impressionism. Even the
photographs of the cards whispered things that at first were
unintelligable but clarified as I dived into their psychedelic
world that is serious as it's whimsical.
Many who are
used to the Rider-Waite-Smith tradition and grew with it will find
familiarity. If also looked at and analyzed with an open mind,
this familiarity can also evolve into something quite
different. Some cards will preserve their original meaning
for you and some will base upon that original meaning
and take you higher into another plane of
understanding that is so crystal clear that you will be
surprised by it's accuracy and depth of vision (hence the
name Prisma Visions) into the subconscious.
I've been
using these cards for a little over a month and one
thing I've observed is that these cards tend to look at
a lot of the psychological aspects in any given
situation. The material or mundane things need more digging
and connecting. This deck will pierce through any
lies, half truths, insincerities for short, illusions.
That eye on the backs of the cards, box and booklet?
That eye will unadulteratedly see "you".
The quality
of the cards and box are top notch. I was expecting
a very glossy finish but the cards are semi-glossed
so that compliments their colors very nicely. The
edges are silver gilded which normally I thought I
wouldn't like but when I actually got the deck I felt that
without the gilded edges, these would've had something
missing. The Minor Arcana can be lined up into one continous
panoramic image which is pure genius on Mr. Eads' part.
All
in all this is a beautifully designed deck that has
everything you need inside of it. Artistic magic, love,
seriousness, playfullness and mor important than all:
Transcedental Enlightment. This is my go to deck and I'm sure it
will stay that way for a long, long time.
