Customer Reviews

Well atleast others got the deck... all I got was the book

It clearly said there was a deck and a book but all I got was a book. Seems as though everyone else leaving reviews got their decks.

I had to read the book to understand the cards

I collect Tarot cards and have many decks (65) but this one threw me for a loop initially and it taught me to think outside the box better. Not an easy deck and not for beginners.

Awesome product!

If you're wondering if you need the book since a small version came with the card deck..than I'd say..absolutely! Get the book. It gives so much more information than the little booklet that comes with the cards. Reading it alone without the cards is a 'voyage' all by itself. The cards are so full of symbols though, that this book just really brings them to life. I highly recommend.

Most comprehensive review of Tarot and its relationships to other oracles

James Wanless has done a monumental and impressive job of pulling together all the different oracular traditions and showing how they fit into the Tarot mind-space. Astrology, numerolgy, shamanism, and others are clearly explained and carefully related. If you've ever felt like expanding your knowledge and understanding of the Tarot, and how it works as an oracle, this is the book.

A Symbolic Pathway

I really enjoy to study this book. It is a book that invites pondering. I bought this book orginally to go with my deck of Voyager Tarot cards (which I love) and I have not been disappointed. Some of the side notes to geomancy and chirognomy can get a little confusing, but these are not major parts of the work and are worthwhile to consider. When Wanless invites you to study further the insight that the major and minor arcana can bring you are hooked. He also outlines several different throws that you may enjoy when using his cards that are enlightening. If you have a penchant for Jung and this type of symbology then the book will be a pleasure to be used with the deck.
