[@chaedwin]

I have purchased many books that you have shared/reviewed on your channel I will be looking into this tarot deck. 👍🏻🔥😁

[@magick_jim]

Saw both your reviews and also bought it today. Im really looking forward to have and work with it

[@krakentowa8727]

YES! Makes total sense. I got the first version of the heavy deck and it instantly became my go to deck. It’s just perfect and you are right to be gushing about it. Can’t wait for the book.

[@stargazer6755]

I totally agree, absolutely stunning deck, Wow! Artwork beautiful. My favourite deck now. Thank you for your review

[@Mimlou]

Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful cards!! Added to the cart!!

[@FoolishFishBooks]

A fantastic deck! You won't be disappointed!

[@TheWangtube]

Wow. Great review as always and of course I want to have it too. Great idea this option to make your own deck. Thanks.

[@clementine_makes_monsters]

I am so intrigued by this deck. Loved your video!!

[@BenedictaXValentina]

Thanks Dennis for sharing your update with us on such a piece of artistry used for each card in this tarot deck series X 🤩🥰😎👍🏻🙌🏻👌🏻❤️❤️❤️✨💎💎💎✨

[@sebastianosleah]

Absolutely gorgeous artwork!

[@thewizardofawes8194]

Outstanding piece of work!

[@swaguilar]

This was a wonderful review but I’m so happy I was up early and saw the first version. I had been looking at the Sun card of the RWS. I thought to myself, “I wish I could feel some joy right now!” The notification for your first video came up and the joy you seemed to be feeling for your new deck in that video felt so synchronistic. It was magical and I’m grateful to have had that bit of your joy 😊 Thank you as always.

[@FoolishFishBooks]

Ah! That very cool 😄 I added the link to the top comment in case anyone wanted to still watch it despite it no longer being public 😄

[@dariaabdul7797]

I enjoyed this review very, very much! Thank you so much!

[@theoccultlibrarian5386]

Now I was over here scratching my head, thinking to myself, I KNOW that I already watched this review and liked the video as usual right when it was released earlier. Then I scrolled the comments and realized it was an updated video lol silly me. I loved how excited you were in the first video. This is a beautiful deck, definitely added to my list. ❤️

[@pspaaad4907]

Just came across this deck by chance and immediately fell inlove. The deck is the prettiest one I've seen

[@kylewalker5547]

I got my deck last year (with expansion) and I 💯 agree, it is by and away my favorite tarot deck. Absolutely gorgeous artistry and packaging as well.

[@RayoAtra]

very cool. Great review. ordering shortly. :]

[@ambersintron2298]

Beautiful deck!!!!

[@DeeVination]

Even though we know it's a high possibility of the box being damaged in transit, it still makes us frown when we open the package and see it. Every single time. LOL This is a very nice deck. Having the expansion pack option is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

[@joshs7178]

I received this deck a few weeks ago and love it as well. Your review makes me appreciate it even more.

[@FoolishFishBooks]

I'm so glad you enjoy it too!

[@TheZephyr2000]

Pleasantly surprised. Wow, they are even more beautiful in person. I just recived mine, in a very quick time, considering they came from Portugal. They are so gorgeous, I might not start to use them just yet... I will only admire them for now...💖

[@louisdebeer2055]

I would just buy that for the illustration

[@MysticRob82]

Thank you for the review… it was very helpful….

[@TheNoSuchThingPodcast]

It’s gorgeous. Now I want it

[@veeasimov]

This is by far and away my favourite deck to use as well. I have two copies now as I bought their seconds versions when they released them a few months ago and just reviewed this newest version and the expansion. It's sooo rich. My only issue is that I don't understand vessels and feel that it doesn't seem to follow a progression that makes sense to me. But then I am not an alchemist in the traditional sense. More in the metaphorical. I'm very happy that Alan Moore was honoured in this deck as he is the magician that triggered my awakening and I'll eternally be greatful to him for his creations and authenticity.

[@millennialbuddhism2619]

absolutely gorgeous iconography style

[@anayrre2062]

Yes, I am over the moon with this deck too 🖤 My final version has 145 cards. Not all, but few left out. 🙌 I also believe it has the best cardstock you can get: 330 GSM and black core. Just perfect in every way.

[@FoolishFishBooks]

Yes! In absolutely every way!

[@FutileGrief]

What does "black core" mean please?

[@akgunkel]

@@FutileGrief Proper card stock for Tarot & playing cards is a multi-layer product, with two sheets of paper sandwiching a core layer. The best cores are black, making the cardstock as opaque as possible, so as to prevent someone from seeing through the card to determine what's on the other side even when brightly backlit. Being "the best", black core cardstocks also generally have the best mechanical properties (snap-back/crease resistance, etc) for their paper weight.

[@anayrre2062]

It basically means, that each card itself is made out of three compartments. The face of the card, the back of the card and in the middle, the black core. It is a hard compartment that makes the card very durable but also flexible. It is common in play card games, because it makes the card completely opaque, so your opponent would not be able to see through your cards. And the gsm has to do with the weight of the paper: how dense it is.

[@anayrre2062]

Yes, better explained ☺️

[@ccmakaw]

This deck is stunning and I love the fifth suit. For the most part I think I'd include all variations of the MA for nuance. Would love to see a borderless version but certainly thinking of purchasing this one day. A bit aspirational for me at the moment but I can dream 🥸

[@brood1658]

Great looking deck!!

[@Cutenerdywoman]

truly beautiful deck.

[@bunnygirlerika9489]

I'm sold, I need these!

[@FutileGrief]

I have been in love with this deck for a year now and I'm close to finally be able to buy it! But I'm so scared about receiving a damaged box lmao it's expensive as sht

I wish I didn't hem and haw because now they're sold out! 😭

[@dawndonivan3089]

@@tily5939 really? Already? Wow. I'm sure they'll do another run.🙂 I'm glad I made up my mind. Lol

[@linwong1494]

This deck looks perfect for what I'm looking for. I'm sort of a beginner at tarot, so I prefer to stick with RWS interpretations of the cards, hence the artwork, but I found the og lacking in artistic subtlety to fully express the ideas behind them in a way that translated in my brain. So I've been looking around for a deck that correlates closely with the RWS but in an art style that speaks to me, and wow I think I might have found it! Thank you Foolish Fish for bringing this deck to my attention!

[@FoolishFishBooks]

This will absolutely do the trick! (Though I do recommend checking out some of the RWS decks that show the original colours, notably the Centennial Edition - you might be surprised to see how different it was from the over-saturated mess that became the standard over the course of the 20th century!)

[@kennydee8296]

So many ways to customize your own personal deck so how about night-page or prince-princess? for me, that would make it perfect.

[@godscience7821]

Nice

[@guythegoth139]

Thats an incredibly beautiful deck, and while I'm not well versed in Tarot, it seems far more symbolically dense than most decks so I might just pick it up.

[@FoolishFishBooks]

Yes! The website is very good at explaining the symbols 😄

[@guythegoth139]

@@FoolishFishBooks I have a very beautiful deck by an artist named Amrit Brar but I don't imagine they have even a fraction of the symbolic depth that these have. I especially enjoyed the chaos card. There's a sense of foreboding inherent in the unknown that the fool seems too whimsical to capture imho.

[@FoolishFishBooks]

@@guythegoth139 yes! I LOVE that Chaos card!

[@djthe1st]

I wish you had a promo code! I would buy these in a heartbeat. My bank account however will not allow it.

[@ShastriAkella]

This is my go-to meditation and channeled messages deck. May I ask: how do you see the difference between the two 4 of Wands?

[@FoolishFishBooks]

I don't remember the other. I've picked the dancing people holding hands

[@warrenjones8106]

Looks great: where can you get sleeves for tarot cards?

[@FoolishFishBooks]

Google will be better placed to know that for your particular location than me, I live in Poland so I went to a site called Allegro and searched for 'card sleeves Tarot' and picked from over 100 options. I'm sure if you visited something like Amazon or just a straight Google search, you'd find one easily 😊

[@M4th3u54ndr4d3]

Great review. This deck is absolutely gorgeous. I think it is pronounced Vo-LAH-tee-le instead of vo-la-TEE-le

[@danielrhoads8676]

My deck arrived yesterday by mail. Any recommendations on a nice tarot case to keep them in? With the expansion pack I want to keep the left overs in their original magnetic box. 😄

[@FoolishFishBooks]

I've found a nice wooden chest with a key lock, just the right size. Bought mine on the market in Krakow, but they're easy to source online with a quick search. Tarot cards are 12cm x 7cm so you need the chest to be slightly bigger than that.

[@misterkurtis9355]

Hi Dennis. I love this deck, too. I just tried to order a backup copy and it appears they are sold out. So, it leads to this quesition for you, what sleeves do you use for your cards?

[@FoolishFishBooks]

Rebel are a Polish brand that are easy for me to source here in Poland, but any plastic sleeves will do! Just search for card sleeves Tarot (not 'french tarot', mind!) And you should get many hits 😊👍

[@mariopopovici6948]

Hello Foolish Fish, great deck, probably the most beautiful out there. I have a question, at the checkout do I have to enter that NIF number? I live in the EU so idk. Did you had to enter something or you left it blank. Thx

[@FoolishFishBooks]

No I left it blank. I also live in the EU

And the eagles and lions of various colors you get the idea 😅🤣

[@oaxacachaka]

Yeah, this is my favorite too. I think I did a kickstarter or some other pre funded purchase for this. Glad people are getting exposed to it! It’s beautiful. They Knight of Cups is you. Did they know you ordered this?

[@FoolishFishBooks]

No, i don't think they knew (or even still know - if they do, they haven't said anything)

[@pinup60]

I've seen some reviews for this deck, but each one comes in a different box, and in some of the reviews the cards appeared to be from a different card stock (not texturized). Are those different editions? I like your box the best, what should I be looking for if I want to find it for sale?

[@FoolishFishBooks]

This is the second edition, the only edition that is compatible with the extension pack. I recommend waiting for the third edition at this point. Be aware that there are many fakes or there which are of terrible quality (especially those with "holographic edges" being sold on Ali Express and E-Bay). Buying from the source or from a reputable seller is the only way to be sure you'll get a genuine product.

Oh Gods, I find! But them don't send to Brazil. 😭
