Thanks for sharing Simon. I purchased this deck 4 months ago but ended up trimming those hideous large borders and edged it pale velvet matte finish in aqua (like the colour of the backs). Borderless really does this tarot deck justice, otherwise the card size also made them impossible to shuffle *(and I have large hands!! Imagine! LOL). The book is so fantastik and the deck has become an instant favorite of mine. I reach out and use almost daily.

I've watched your videos but never commented til now. I want to let you know that your reading of the Judgment card brought tears to my eyes. Out of the blue as soon as you started reading I was overwhelmed with emotion and teared up. Not sure why. It felt very nurturing and "seen". Like I was a child being read to. It was both your voice and the words being read. Needless to say I feel like I "need" to buy this deck now LOL. Thank you, Simon.

Thank you so much for this review....am so glad you love the deck. I loved creating it and the stories. I only wanted the Majors to have the Once Upon A Time, hence why not in the other cards. PS...I saw you liked the Page of Coins...he is my son from a couple of years ago xx

I really love the illustrations as well as the deep images of the deck. Listening to the interpretation of 'Judgement' has me intrigued and I'm certain the meanings behind each card will be outstanding. Beautiful, soulful and thoughtful deck. Thanks for sharing.

Very surprised! I normally don't like this artwork style. But the colors are just so clear & brilliant. I went back and forth between really liking a card and then not liking one. I like the fancy script/font on the cards. The key words are spot on - but that guidebook is a WOW. I think if I got this, it would be for the book. Thanks for taking the time to read it. That was lovely.

Mentor card is wonderful! I would purchase this for the quotes, once upon a time and keys words which I think are well done. Such a shame the once upon a time wasn't used throughout but perhaps justified by the fact the suits aren't individual "characters " as such? The images are well conceived and I like many of the "ideas" very much- but I am not at all fond of this styalised collage design. One word doesn't work for me and that was Loneliness for Hermit. There is a world of difference between being Alone and being Lonely. I identify much more with aloneness which I can relish mostly and just rarely ( or ever) feel loneliness. Missing particular loved ones isnt counted! Thanks for a great walk through

So....I was out today....which is rare and actually had this in hand. Came home...and saw your video. So...I ordered. There are things I don't like about the art....but the colors and mood are lovely. I don't like huge shiny cards....but the last deck is among my favorites and reads beautifully. What struck me right away with this one are the colors. Got to have it! 😆

Gee.. I am kind of sad. I’ve been waiting for this deck to come out, but I didn’t realize that it was kind of photo manipulated where you see real people and not art style per say. This type of style does not work for me personally. I am sure there are many out there that will love and connect with this deck. All the writing on the back of the box had me so excited. 💔Thank you Simon for the walk through. 🥰

I really didn't care for her first deck but this one intrigues me. A cross between Ciro Marchetti (not a favorite) and Tarot of Mystical Moments (love). Much more whimsical than her first deck. I'd definitely mod to get rid of the borders. Didn't like the glossiness of the cards on her first deck so I'll have to think about that. The lack of body, age, and race diversity is a bit disconcerting, too. Thanks for sharing this one, Simon!

I’m so sad because these cards are so huge I can’t even shuffle them. I’m going to have to return them. So many people like oversize decks, there are so many and I literally can’t use them 😢

Personally I do not like the card name on the images. I have seen several deck recently like this. To me it is a poor design choice. It is distracting. Having the card name near the top or middle of any of the images, such as "the Fool and the Magician and ect" is a no buy for me no matter the rest of the deck. Also, I find glossy decks way too distracting in most any lighting.

Ditto! I chopped off those horrible borders and key words. It was ruining the experience for me..LOL Also edged the borders in pale matte velvet finish in Turquoise to match the backs.
