Reviews
Tarot decks I've seen recently.
It parts from an
original idea and though it is quite "dark" each and every
card make a lot of sense from the perspective of
Death.
The imagery is tastefully chosen and it is full of
symbolism and deep meaning, it is a complex deck, perhaps
better suited to seasoned readers. Though personally I
love the imagery, it is well oriented for those with a
taste for the goth or the macabre, so as some readers
could find it quite "murky".
It is available in three
different sizes, Bridge, Tarot and Oracle size. Though I
chose the Tarot size for a personal preference, I think
that the oracle size will make a better choice for
collectors, so you can enjoy the beautiful imagery at its
most.
The stock is thin yet resistant and the
material is not plain cardboard but a kind of plastic
material, very enjoyable to hands and comfortable to
shuffle.
As for the packing, it comes sealed and into a
plain white box as it is a self published deck.
