Giant Rider-Waite® Tarot Deck

I love this deck. The cards are big and easy to see, which makes them perfect for my YouTube and TikTok videos. I tried using them for daily readings, but they’re a little too big and difficult to shuffle. Overall, I love them and they serve my purpose.

Having used the Radiant Rider-Waite deck for years, I didn’t realize the artwork itself had been improved upon in that deck until I got this one! The Radiant deck is stunning, vibrant, clear and has much more detail than the original RWS deck and I highly recommend it. Even though it’s been re-illustrated, it’s basically RWS in 4K HD and feels amazing to use. However, the original RWS artwork and coloring here is one of a kind. High contrast, crisp line work, rich accurate colors, pure whites and blacks without any odd toning or exaggerated colors. They’re magical. Keep in mind these cards are huge, so opt for the standard RWS deck for readings if you have smaller hands, however keep these around to bask in the artwork up close.

Good but also huge cards

Really a nice deck. A pleasure to have. Looking through the large cards it feels as-if one is truly seeing them for the first time. And the Little White Book that comes with it is nearly as large as the cards, with a typeface big enough that it isn't at all a trial to attempt reading. If you like Tarot I doubt that you will be disappointed if you should happen to purchase these cards. They are truly nice. I regret the months I spent postponing buying them! LOL!

I have more than enough tarot decks at this point - some with creative artwork, and many with the Rider-Waite images in unique formats (such as shimmery foil backgrounds, or different colors). So I definitely did NOT need another deck! But for some reason I bought these. They're hard to shuffle because they're so big - I usually just spread them out on the table and swirl them around. They're just fun to play with. The main way I use them is when I'm referencing one of my tarot books to learn about the card meanings. I find that it's easier to see the small details on each card since they're bigger than normal. I may even frame a few of my favorite images to hang on the wall, or use them in my crafting/artwork. The card stock is thick and the colors are bright. As I said, I certainly didn't need these but they're fun!

Si amas el tarot este mazo no te puede faltar. Tiene buena calidad. Para el precio está perfecto. Realmente es gigante. La caja es de las blandas pero igual puedes seguir guardando tu mazo en ella.

Love these cards. They’re huge!

I'm completely new to tarot reading, and I always thought that the giant Rider-Waite deck was the standard size. When I realized the standard deck wasn't as big as I thought they were, I went with the giant size. I'm so happy I did. They're absolutely beautiful. I honestly don't put much faith into divination; I just like using them to have a different perspective on my day. It's so relaxing to do a reading and have some quiet time to myself. The colors are so bright and the drawing style is very classic and emotive. They're tricky to shuffle. I shuffle them vertically. It's still a bit difficult, but it gets the job done. The biggest problem I have with these cards is they're cheaply made in China. They're printed on basic cardstock. They're not coated or laminated or anything. I can already tell they're going to be very susceptible to scratches and grime. For $17 they should be of much, much higher quality. Also, the geniuses at US Games put the copyright info right on the card. If it was that necessary, they could've hid it in the back. Why does it need to be right next to the art? It makes the experience feel so novel and cheap. I highly doubt Waite and Smith would appreciate that. Other than that, I'm in love with these cards and they're going to get a lot of use. Don't listen to people who say they're not good for readings; they're fantastic for readings! You might just have to do it on the floor. :)
