Customer Reviews

I got the book no cards, what a complete rip off

Rip off

No cards!

Useless without accompanying cards. Waste of money.

Great for relationship and love Readings

I bought this book and deck (it comes complete set) two months ago and I have never looked back. Everyday I look at them.The graphics are lovely and it is very clear, simple and accurate to read. All the cards turn out so real.It amazes me. I just adore them. I even carry them downstairs in the morning and I carry them back upstairs when I am going to bed.I put them next to my bed before I go to sleep.I just ask a question and pull out a card.So easy. I read for others most of the time. You will not be disapointed.

My favorite favorite deck...

I have tried many decks, but this one is fantastic if you aim to give a really high quality and insightful, growth oriented love reading. The messages and lessons are so wonderful and accurate and the deck is quite beautiful as well. For anyone wanting to read love, this is the ultimate deck! There are even spells (not that I much subscribe to magic but do see them as powerful affirmations) in the back of the book for getting over lost love, finding new love, etc.

Insightful readings on romance & love

Amy Zerner and Monte Farber have done it again - they have released a wonderfully packaged set of lovely and insightful cards. The True Love Tarot is a complete tarot deck with the suits of the Minor Arcana renamed Roses (Wands in most decks), Wings (a. k. a. Swords), Shells (a. k. a. Cups), and Gems (a. k. a. Pentacles and/or Coins). The Major Arcana is fully illustrated with Ms. Zerner's amazing and beautiful collage tapestry work. The Minors are illustrated in basic pip fashion (i. e., a picture of 4 tapestry Roses for the 4 of Roses, 9 tapestry butterflies for the 9 of Wings, and so on). The tapestry elements that Ms. Zerner uses are beautiful in and of themselves, plus she will use a variety of different types on a single card. So although the pips are not fully illustrated scenes they are still lovely cards. As a professional reader with over 20 years experience I found this deck to be quite insightful. Not only does it give good advice where existing relationships are concerned, but it can also give guidance on the changes a person needs to make in their life in order to help manifest the type of relationship that they desire. This deck is fast becoming popular with my clientele and it has a wide appeal to both beginning and advanced readers alike.

The True Love Tarot: Secrets of Dating, Mating and Relating

I really liked how the cards and the book are so compatible, so when I pull a card I feel very clear that what I am reading matches. I don't always get that... but this time I do. This is a wonderful set to add to your collection. I know I will read a lot with it for love is a question most people come in with in one form or another. Deni Richter T.S.

Another Delightful Offering from Amy and Monte

The True Love Tarot is not only a celebration of the love Amy and Monte share, but a celebration of ALL love affairs. As always, the presentation is just lovely - packaged in a book-like box, the deck is nestled on the right hand side and the FULL COLOR book tucks neatly into the left side of the book-box. When I say FULL COLOR book, that is what I mean...every single page is rich with color and it has big glorious pictures - full page pictures of each Major Arcana card and half page pictures of the MInors!. What this says to me is no corners were cut in the production of this book. Love is an opulent, lavish emotion and the presentation of this set celebrates just that! The deck is another one of Amy's exquisite tapestry gifts. In this deck the central figures are somewhat bigger than in previous decks, and many may find them easier to read with. But none of the detail is sacrificied, it is just a slightly bolder look. The Minor Arcana cards are not fully illustrated, but use the symbols of the suit; Roses, Shells, Gems and Wings. There are Keywords on each and every card, so complete knowledge of the Tarot is not really necessary to use the deck. The colors are rich and vibrant and the deck will reflect the energy you bring to the reading. The book is a little masterpiece on its own. It is written in the style of a knowledgeable friend sitting with you, teaching you how to read the Tarot and gently nudging you through a reading. I love that style of writing! The book will even tell you how to use the cards masterfuly for those dreaded YES and NO questions that plague Tarot Readers. "Will I meet the love of my life soon?" can finally be quickly answered - smiling here... This is a delightful deck for those new to the Tarot and experienced Tarot readers will also find it a useful addition for those special "Romance Readings" that are called for so often. Personally, I can imagine every single teenaged girl I have ever known adoring this deck and having a blast with it for years! If you are looking for a fabulous Valentine's Day gift, don't delay, this is just the gift. Even for yourself. Personally, I just love this deck. I find it lighthearted, sweet and yet full of advice and wit. It is a fun, useful deck that will delight you with insightful answers to heartfelt questions. A great addition to any collection. Enjoy!!!
