I don’t have the indie edition, which I won’t fib and say I don’t prefer, however I am very appreciative that this deck was picked up and available MM for me to get a chance to work with. The artwork is so profound and beautiful. A wonderful tool to deepen & broaden my knowledge and understanding of different cultures myths. Fantastic video comparing the two. 🖤

Thank you so much for doing this, I think it's extremely helpful for people to see the difference. I am glad to have the older version, but I am also thrilled that it's available for more people to appreciate. The book is a gem. ❤

I LOVE this! The book looks amazing telling all the great myths from Finland. Definitely going to be getting this for sure, if Watkins have this I will get it there and if not will get from Cheryl. It’s a shame about the cardstock but that won’t be a deal breaker for me, absolutely love it 😍❤️

Great review, thanks! I wish someone would re-release the old Kalevala Tarot by Kalervo Aaltonen! I love the Kalevala, it was a wonderful surprise to me, and have read it 2 and half times. Didn't finish it the third time. This deck looks like it would complement it really well though! It's a wonderful mythology.

Thank you for this comparison😙! Does MM book has the same amount of text as the OG one? Love this deck! It's a pity they change the original colours, however I think most of pictures are better cropped. Have a great weekend!!!

I’m tempted by this deck and thankyou for reviewing it. Maybe slightly too abstract for me ( your comment re Margaret Peterson raised slight alarm bells as I have her deck and cannot get on with it at all). I quite preferred the perspectives at times with the Rockpool deck ( eg the full view if horses head for ‘ strength’.. ) and the pentacles suit might clinch it for me as I loved it and pentacles is always my ‘home suit’. And the book looks fantastic.

If you ever happen to spill wax on your cloth, get a brown paper sack (like a lunch bag) and lay it over the wax. Heat ur iron on a lower setting and slowly iron the bag. The heat will melt the wax, and the bag will soak it right up!!! I had to get red wax off my light colored carpet one time! 😮

I’m glad you did this! I am interested in getting this deck, but it sounds like it’s similar card stock as the Black Violet Rockpool put out. Mine warped immediately and the gilding looks like I’ve had it a year. Very disappointing
