Tarot of the Golden Wheel Cards – June 26, 2019

This is easily one of the most beautiful decks I have found. It has excellent large cards with borderless art, a nice sturdy horizontal box and a well-made guide book which is essentially a mini book rather than cheap stapled paper. The cards and smooth with a matte finish, but the artwork is very vibrant and bright. The color and detail of nearly every card is truly impressive. The love the artist has for Eastern European style is obvious, as she is never content to repeat anything to to skimp on the intricate details, and it really helps this deck to stand apart. Her use of color makes every card stand out and evoke something unique. Despite following Rider-Waite-Smith closely, the distinctive theme of this deck and the artist's exceptional talent and dedication to detail give it a feeling all its own. In terms of sheer beauty, you'll be hard-pressed to do better, and I think there are more than a few cards that could contend for being the among the finest representations of a card out there. The backing is perfect and they chose a nice font as well.The lone defect with this deck that comes to mind is that the book, though it starts out really well (I really liked how they did the major arcana), clearly was not gone over with much concern or attention once you get to the minor arcana where the writing, at times, slips into the usual outrageous and offensively unedited text that is so common in tarot booklets. It definitely does not detract from the deck itself and there is still some decent insight in the minor cards.

I was looking for a new tarot deck to reflect a more balanced world-view than I get from Rider-Waite but I didn't want to go way into left field. Then I saw this deck. The idea of cards based on Slavic folk-tales appealed to me as my paternal grandmother's family was from the Romania/Hungary area of the world. When I got this deck, I was very pleased with it. The cards are just big enough and thick enough to feel as if they will last, while being easy enough to shuffle. The images on the cards are magnificent, with bold colors that also integrate with each other. There is not a single card that I found fault with. I have already started doing personal readings with it and I have been very pleased with the energy I get from the images. Would highly recommend this deck for anyone who is looking for something not exactly white-European-Male focused but also not too abstract.

This deck stole my heart ❤️. It is beyond beautiful,it’s true amazing. I can’t believe, it is only $16 !!! It “GOLDEN”for the money. The art alone can put the deck to $30 range!! So happy, I purchased it. NO Regrets whatsoever the best $16 I ever spend.I truly don’t know why this deck is not on the top seller list and not getting enough love 😔 !!!! I have been using it for couple months. It became my favorite to go to deck.I decided to purchase extra back copy ( yes I am one of those people, however I only purchases decks that I cannot do without which handful).I have the Tarot Mucha,Ethereal Visions Illuminated Tarot and Art Nouveau Lenormand Oracle (I compared sizes in picture) I will put this deck above them all. Not only for the beautiful art but the guide book,too. Most deck will just throw LWB with deck with no details... This deck actually have useful guide book that point out some details which make it excellent for beginner who love art nouveau and want something different that usually. For me one of the many reasons I chose this deck is artes did great job drawing all of these characters/ people in the cards. They all look natural and beautiful. Very balanced. Finally Handsome kings to match the queens. It an amazing balance. I got so many compliments about this deck and how easy on the eyes.I can’t say enough how beautiful those cards are. I really cannot think of any card that I don’t like. The High Priestess is my favorite cards. The courts cards are so beautiful.I only can pray and hope that US Games or the Artist will create oracle deck and lenormand deck to go with this gorgeous deck... I can only hopeHere is some Info about the quality of the deck:The Art:Art Nouveau and it is well done job, fantastic work. It is Borderless, thank goodness. However,it has the copyright on the back of each card. I understand why but I wish they didn’t.size:I really love the size of those cards, I took Picture of them side by side with my other cards to show the difference.The box :I want all my deck come with kind of box, it is fantastic and I love it. I wish it has ribbon to help get the cards ( I added ribbon to mine)The cards Quality :the cards are good quality flexible usually US games cards. Very similar Ethereal Visions Illuminated Tarot. I dislike white edges so,I gilded my deck with Gold

When I saw these cards I went "oh my gooood, they're so beautiful" and feel that way every time I see them. I'm amazed at the beauty and quality of the illustration, the vibrancy of the colors, the dynamic and emotional gestures and characters... This is very much a style I love, full of life and a romantic attitude. Even more incredible is how little I've seen people talk about this deck (though perhaps I'm simply not running in the right circles). I don't know anything about Russian mythology and the primary system I'm learning is not the Rider-Waite, but even so, I got this deck thinking that it's approachable and attractive enough to use for readings for others. The cardstock isn't super thick, but seems sturdy enough. Also, the box is gorgeous, strong, and easy enough to get in and out of that I don't think the deck needs to be moved to any other container - it's fine as it is. The booklet it comes with is bound well; it looks like an actual tiny little book. The whole package is impressive. Plus, the price is very reasonable and worth it to support the artist. Would recommend to anyone.
