Wyspell Tarot Cards with Guide Book - Starlight Unique Tarot Deck for Beginners - Traditional Symbolism - Beautiful & Modern Tarot Decks (Gold)

Did I need another tarot deck? No! But I watch a lot of tarot readers online and saw several reviews of this Wyspell Starlight Tarot (blue version) that piqued my interest. The most notable feature of this deck is the interesting color scheme - mainly blue and orange. The imagery is loosely based on the Rider Waite Smith system, so it's a good deck for beginners who are familiar with those characters and symbolism. But the drawings are also different enough that an experienced reader will be able to intuitively pick up new meanings from the fresh take on the designs. From past experience, I know that when I buy a deck from Wyspell I'm going to love it! I'm always pleased with the overall quality of their decks - everything from the packaging, the card stock, the artwork, and the price! This standard size Starlight deck comes in a two-piece box that is thick and sturdy. The cards themselves are a nice weight, slightly bendable but not too stiff. The colors are vibrant and rich looking. The images are borderless, with the titles of the cards appearing in a small banner along the bottom. The Roman numerals for the major arcana are positioned at the top. The design on the back of the cards is reversible. The edges are gilded in gold foil. This deck looks and feels like a much more expensive deck - the price is sooooo reasonable! The "little white book" is also excellent! It has a blue, matte-finish cover with colored pages (like a golden mustard color). At just under 200 pages, each card gets a two-page spread (wow!) including a small thumbnail picture of the card in color. One page includes upright meanings, the other reversed. There are several keywords, a few sentences elaborating on the meaning, and then brief interpretations as the card relates to love, career, and finances. Very well done - so much value overall with this deck! There's also an extra card in the deck with a QR - be sure to scan it for some bonus material from Wyspell. This is the 4th or 5th deck I've bought from this company and will continue to watch for their future offerings. Some people say you don't need more than one or two decks to do your readings, but I don't listen to them! (Wink, wink!) Thanks, Wyspell, for making such beautiful, high-quality cards at affordable prices.

(Blue version): This deck is absolutely drop dead gorgeous! The images on the cards really pop despite the fact that the cards are all primarily blue. I love the illustrations, especially the Sun and the 6 of Cups. So beautiful! The guidebook is excellent considering its small size. It gives a general meaning as well as meanings for love and career readings and reversals, and it's illustrated in color. The box is very sturdy. This is definitely my new favorite deck and I'll have my eye on this creator for more decks! (Gold Version): So, I loved the blue version, but wanted something more color-neutral. So I ordered the Gold edition. And I am so bummed! The blue edition has all kinds of gold embellishments. The stars are all metallic, sparkly gold. The card backs and the box are embellished with metallic gold. But on the GOLD version, they're not. Instead of sparkly gold stars, they just look sort of...brown. In fact, except the card edges, the deck isn't gold at all. It's more like mustard-colored. Not at all what I would call "Starlight." In all other respects it's the same great quality. But it really needed those gold embellishments to elevate it from sort of murky-colored to starry. I might return it. I'm on the fence because it was so inexpensive and it's such a pain to schlep it to the UPS depot. On the other hand, I really dislike it and I'm soooo disappointed compared with the blue version.

This deck is gorgeous! And the quality is amazing! For the quality this price is ridiculous! The cards are thick and durable, the art is pristine, and the gilding is perfect. I can’t say enough good things about this deck!

These are gorgeous cards. The gold foil printing is tremendous and the illustrations are beautifully done. Despite the differences in color and imagery, they still work great at producing insights and intuition.

I bought both versions of this deck the blue one and the black and gold and they’re genuinely surprising in the best way. The artwork is the same in both, but the change of color gives each deck a completely different personality. The blue edition feels brighter and more dreamy, while the black and gold has a more elegant and atmospheric look. The card quality is good, the printing is clean, and they handle smoothly. They come well presented, and overall they look much better than I expected. These decks really show that you don’t need to spend a lot to bring home something well-made and enjoyable to use.

This deck is BEAUTIFUL. The included book is clear and complete with bonus shortcuts and reversals. The colors are very vibrant. The illustrations are very clear… and decisive. The gold foiled edge makes a pop of elegance. The stock is a nice sturdy weight and size for a Large hand. These cards resonate very strongly with *something to say* and thrill through my fingers slowly with smooth deliberation as if intent to get to message through. Fully integrated in to my reading roster with no weird energy transitions.

Gorgeous cards, a little larger than is comfortable for those of us with small hands but not too bad. I love the art, the colors, and the foil edges. They're thick and stiff, but are softening fairly well. Unfortunately, they are not super durable and are peeling and chipping at the edges where they hit each other and got stuck when I was first practicing shuffling with them. Excellent starter deck!

Magnífico!!!! As cores no deck são suaves, e as bordas em dourado são um espetáculo! Arte linda. Caixinha maravilhosa! Simplesmente ameiiiii! Chegou antes do prazo, bem embalado e em perfeito estado! Super recomendo! 🥰

Really great quality and very pretty cards

This tarot deck is beautiful and well made. The artwork is detailed, the colors are vibrant, and the card quality feels sturdy and smooth when shuffling. The size is comfortable to hold, and the guidebook is easy to understand. Overall, it is a lovely deck for both beginners and experienced readers.

Purtroppo il mazzo di carte, così come la confezione non era come mi aspettavo, doveva essere con inserti dorati sia sulla confezione e sia sul retro delle carte, invece è arancione, ho dubbi sull’originalità delle carte. Molto delusa anche perché il prezzo veramente eccessivo sul sito originale costano la metà.

This deck is awesome! I initially bought the deck as it came up in a “We Found Something You Might Like” email from Amazon, and I was captivated by the deep blue colourisation of the cards. As a Tarot deck collector, I am always looking for new and different interpretations of the arcane mysteries, and this deck seemed to fit the bill. First impressions on receiving the deck were, “WOW! What an awesome, sturdy box they come in!” Far too many of the mass-produced decks by the big Tarot publishers come in flimsy, weak flip top cartons that provide little protection for the cards and certainly are not impressive as keepsakes for the precious decks inside that are supposed to last a lifetime. Not so with this Wyspell deck! The box is heavy duty card, very strong – even stronger than the box my original RWS deck came in 60 years ago! It’s really pleasing to see that these newer publishers are prepared to put the time and money into decent packaging, and at a price point that is certainly on par with those mass-produced decks! On unwrapping and opening the box, I too encountered a strong, persistent smell, either from the inks or the glues used in producing the cards, boxes and book. I am sure this will diminish overtime as the deck gets used and aired out! The LWB – or, in this case, maybe Little Blue Book – is well produced and clear, with a good amount of divinatory instruction for each card in both the upright and reversed positions. The orange (or maybe sepia?) coloured paper is designed to match the colour scheme of the cards, and is easy and clear enough to work with. And then the cards themselves! These are produced on great cardstock – 400 GSM or maybe even better – and are sturdy while still being flexible enough to riffle shuffle. They are also gold-edged, which adds to both the visual appeal of the deck and the rigidity of the cards. The matte finish is not so heavy as to inhibit shuffling, so really good production quality all-round. The colour scheme of the deck is striking, and is what drew me to the cards initially. The main colours are black, shades of deep blue, shades of orange, some golds/browns and the flesh tones of the characters. The artist has used this palette to produce rich artwork that is both stimulating and yet easy on the eyes. The characters are well depicted with excellent detail, and many of them are facing forwards so that their eyes are looking right at you, which makes them all the more intriguing. Even the Star is boldly staring at you with just the hint of a smirk. The typically black backgrounds are star-filled and illuminating, as per the theme of the deck, and add an air of ambient mystery that compliments the scenes portrayed. As for the scenes, they are based on the standard RWS model, but, as this is not a clone, there are a number of variations that are to be expected in the new design. None of these significantly alter the symbology of the deck, so an experienced reader could easily work with the deck to perform readings. Beginners could start with this deck, as it is easy to work with, given the detailed LWB, but would benefit at some point in their future learnings to invest in either the RWS deck or a detailed book about the RWS deck so they can see both the symbolic similarities and the differences that would lead to a deeper understanding of this deck. All in all, an excellent deck that I thoroughly recommend to both new Tarot acolytes and experienced doyens of the cartomantic arts!
