Light & Prisma Visions Tarot Comparison & Walkthrough

[@marap2453]

Note to self: don't watch any Kelly's walkthrough if you think that you don't need that deck. Because that deck will go straight in your cart! :-) I love your reviews, Kelly!

[@clare5one]

I have that illness also.

[@Nazlairdie]

I have that too 😂

[@DisabledPsychedelica]

I’d need both, and all the extra cards. I would totally mix my favorites into one deck as well.

[@kaddenmathews2901]

Great overview. I have to agree with you; if I was to only use one I would probably grab The Light Visions. But for me the real beauty is using the two decks in tandem. For instance you could use The Prisma Visions for the elements in your general spread and The Light Visions for the rest. Or Vice Versa. Take the past life spread and use The Light Visions for the pyramid and then the Prisma for the four additional side cards. The possibilities are endless. Light/shadow, Majors Only/Minors. Ect.

[@TheTruthinStory]

Kadden Mathews I knooow I did a two layer elemental with both and a light and shadow this morning!!

[@mackenziesim9268]

I absolutely loved how you got to learn more about the decks and their personalities. I could practically feel you bonding closer and closer with both decks as you passed through, looked at every detail, and read the story 😊

[@AwakenedImagination]

Omg I'm so excited you finally reviewed these cards; they've been on my wishlist for a while and I just ordered them a few days ago! Just last night I was searching for a review of them on your website to see what your thoughts on them were, and now I finally get to see just that!

[@superchungus]

I am so happily distracted by the mini cleaver! I LOLed when you broke the plastic seal with it 😂 Love your videos, please keep doing what you're doing!

[@wendywoo4404]

I ordered both versions because I just couldn’t choose between them, they’re both so beautiful! Thank you for making such a detailed comparison!

[@TheTruthinStory]

I have really been enjoying using these decks together!!!

[@lizwestwater8405]

Loving that Past Life spread..... gonna try that right away! Really enjoyed the video, Kelly! I do have both I bought them together and have not tried using them yet..... will break them in on a past life spread! Thanks for the walk through!!! These decks are beautiful!!!!

[@foreverseeking1380]

UGGGGG I thought I had made up my mind about the one I liked the best but now I like them both!!!! Thank you for the walk through

[@TheTruthinStory]

Ahhhh lol, I'm sorry :D I was hoping to help people be able to choose but completely understand the now liking them both!!

[@treymaynebarrett4127]

I have that same cleaver. Video is great by the way, I was looking for a good run down of the decks because I just purchased them and they're on the way now to my house. Watching this I know now that I made the right decision. Thank you for the in depth video and quality content.

[@jasonflorence127]

Just wanted to say thank you. I look forward to every review videos you do. You have a way of infusing a certain wisdom in your descriptions that I would never pick up on. Again thank you. You rock👍

[@TheTruthinStory]

Aw Jason, thank you so much for your encouraging words!! YOU rock as well :D :D :D

[@truthinshadowdeed925]

Here I go I'm late to the party again.i just purchased the third edition of the Light Visions.i love the old school storybook feel and for me many of the images were more clear especially with the ones with people in them . Thank you for another amazing comparison

[@varmiiii]

I watched this video because I wanted to decide which one to get but now I have to get both... my bank account is definitely not happy but I definitely am😂

[@TheTruthinStory]

O.O SORRY :D I had a feeling that might happen for a few!

[@Petra-ms3ku]

You can buy them together on his site. 🤣

[@Dimimuso]

I have the Light Vision (not sure which edition - it is super matte - almost too hard to shuffle, but completely wonderful.) My Prisma vision is the 5th edition... SUPER gloss. Completely in love with both of them.

[@MeadowlarkMystic]

I can understand and appreciate way more of the art with the light visions, really opened up this deck for me! Thanks 🙏

[@gingerblue]

AHHH I got the Prisma for the holidays and have flipped through but not done a lot of work with it. I'm so excited to see your take on it!!

[@doryralston8325]

Great presentation of these beautiful decks. I have the prisma visions 3rd ed. and love the deck. Now I really want the light visions. I appreciate the comparison. Thank you Kelly

[@TheTruthinStory]

Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed seeing them side by side! Thank you for taking the time to watch! ::HUGS::

[@silverliningonthenight]

so excited just ordered my prisma visions ... :)

[@TheTruthinStory]

Yay for you, it is definitely a feast for the eyes!! :)

[@silverliningonthenight]

is one of those decks i always wanted but for cheaper, so i found it for 10 dolars just need to wait until it arrives from china :)

[@nadia_margaret_3458]

@beherenow there'scomingsomething LOL 🤣🤣🤣that's why I would never order any Tarot cards from China! 😊

[@suel3541]

Fantastic review. I really enjoyed it. I love both decks. Light Vision version is easier to read for me and I love purple. Thanks Kelly!

[@TheTruthinStory]

The purple really is stunning, I wasn't expecting the color as I hadn't looked at many pictures so it was a wonderful surprise!! Thank you for watching!!

[@ConjurersTable]

Hi Kelly! So glad I saw this video! I saw in your live chat yesterday & saw you using the Prisma! I went to their website & saw the light visions & now I am deciding which one to get! So hopefully this will help (unless I end up getting the bundle) lol

[@NobodyHere]

Thank you for reminding me of my earlier loves :D I am almost disappointed at how glossy the cards are still. The first edition Light Vision is soooo beautifully matte, that when I finally received The Prisma Vision from his KS campaign, I was disappointed at how glossy the cards were, and how "faded" the dark blue was (I somehow had it in my mind a stark dark dark blue on matte matte cards when I saw his images online). Having said that, I have been too afraid to use my Light Vision because getting it was a real mission. This edition you showed us here will provide me with an option for a "work horse" copy :D I also heard that the colours in the 3rd edition Prisma Vision appear more crisp and saturated. Not sure (I only have the 1st ed, like the one you showed here). If I do decide to get these editions LV and PV, I will dig out my other copies and do comparison videos. I agree with you about the LV. I prefer it too in many ways! Thanks again Kelly, great walkthrough, as always!

[@dejavu8322]

I love matte cards too but as far as i know most factories cannot put that type of gilding on matte cards. So you end up choosing matt cards with a matt gold/silver gilding or glossy cards with very shiny gilding. Bummer i hope they figure it out soon.

[@TheTruthinStory]

Ahhhhh that makes sense about the gilding, I have definitely seen more mass market decks get destroyed by gilding ripping up the laminate on the face card, ah well, they do shuffle lovely!

[@MissBlackandBlue]

Thanks for the walkthrough. I was a long-time holdout with these decks. Was conflicted about the Impressionistic artwork because it's not my fav and also about the Swords suit (my most beloved suit), but those Majors kept calling to me. lol I bought both at the same time (2nd Ed. Light/3rd Ed. Prisma) and I just *adore* them now. I especially love the Prisma -- the color palette is so striking. Again, those Majors...

[@Thelesser.bb_k]

Finally 🙌❤️ I was waiting for this review! Thank you Kelly 😘

[@clare5one]

I just bought both decks. I had originally bought the 2nd Prisma edition; however I am having my house remodeled and I am lucky that I can find myself. The deck is lost.

[@TheTruthinStory]

Aw Clare, I feel so sorry for you as you have definitely needed to rebuy a lot of decks!! Hope you enjoy having these back!!!

[@clare5one]

Kelly thank you for your understanding. Actually many items were stollen. It is a long story, but I was not my negligence.

[@amethystsugar7411]

First edition Light Visions came in a wooden tarot box, specially made to go with the deck. The box is beautiful.

[@6Haunted-Days]

Meh, I much prefer the other one. Also don’t ya love how adding some basic wooden box with some lettering (if lucky) tacks on $25/$50 on the price? 🙄😂 sheesh I’ve been a collector & reader 39yrs so I’m long past being tempted by any 💩 like that…. I’ll make one myself 🧙🏻‍♀️

[@SHAMANESS_ARIA]

Thank you so much 🙏🏻💛

[@TheTruthinStory]

You are so very welcome!!

[@DanielECulbertson]

I just received what was supposed to be the Prisma Visions tarot from an eBay seller, but as soon as I opened the package, it was obvious that it was a fake reproduction: the cards were small, it came in a cheap tuck-box, and there was no book. (Surprisingly, the edges *were* gilded in silver, though.) Even so, shame on me; I should've known that the price was too good to be true. Despite that, the images were so beautiful that I really wanted to have the real deal, so I ordered it from James Eads' Amazon listing. I can't wait to have the full-sized cards to contemplate (and the actual book that accompanies them!). Although I definitely prefer the gorgeous colors of the Prisma Visions, I was surprised at how much I also enjoyed the simplicity of the Light Visions as well. Thanks for this walkthrough! ❤

[@TheTruthinStory]

Aww Daniel, I am so sorry to hear that, it's so crazy how careful we have to be of those "too good to be true" deals :(

[@DanielECulbertson]

@@TheTruthinStory The Truth in Story I finally got my Prisma Visions Tarot in the mail today (the REAL one!) and I was excited to notice that on The Lovers card, one of the dancing couples depicted on the left side of the card is two men. Yay for LGBT inclusion that I hadn't even noticed before today! 😁

[@pixistix3254]

I recently ordered this deck. I had a RWS deck many many years ago in my teen years and this one looks very different. It's so beautiful. Does it feel and read very differently?

[@TheTruthinStory]

It is very beautiful and it reads almost like a story book in a way because of the connected number cards!

[@theowlspirit]

It’s so interesting that close up I prefer the black and white deck but far away I much More prefer the colored one. Aah!!

[@creativeconcept119]

I was debating what deck I would get and this video helped me choose. I'll be the proud owner of the light set in about a month, I ordered right when they left for summer vacation.

[@TheTruthinStory]

I am so glad that it helped you to know which one would be best for you, enjoy it when you get it, it really is a gorgeous deck!!

[@Zullala]

How will I ever choose!?

[@Zullala]

I ended up getting the Light Visions in a mat finish :D

[@6Haunted-Days]

With this comparison what REALLY stands out is ….Prisma Visions looks like stunning 19th Cent ART, pure art. The B&W Light Visions looks like hmmmm more like a modern definitely graphic novel type art…..wood block print? So yea…..HUGE different in style imo:….yea you can at times see “more” or can see more clearly I guess with no color. But the Prisma is just….stunning art.

[@darkfaetarot]

ok... I am torn... which one do I pick? Any hints??? I usually buy colour, I love colour, but in this case the black and white deck feels more expressive and easier to decipher... confused... yikes!... Edited: I ordered the Light Visions :).. Thank you for the great walk through.

[@TheTruthinStory]

:D I hope you enjoy your choice, they are both wonderful!! I would get the Light Visions if I had to make a personal choice!

[@rebeljadesfire]

Prisma Visions is now available in a tin on kickstarter :D

[@darkfaetarot]

@@rebeljadesfire thank you. I bought one in standard ☺️🍄

[@tspacefullstop4161]

Your crystals...are .. stunning. Is that an optical calcite in the top right corner? Have you done any crystal collection tours? Oh my goodness that is crazy cutting device..🙈

[@annd10001]

So glad I found this. I was set to buy Prisma Visions but I think Light Visions would be the 1 if I could only have 1. (Of course, I will eventually buy the other!) I agree that Light Visions is more story book and that makes it more poignant for me.

[@jeremyh.7139]

hello, I enjoy your comparison, and I can't make a choice ^^. So I bought them both. Im used to Camoin/Jodorowski Tarot deck for now. It's really different from these two. Can you advise me some readings or videos watching to learn deeply into these two decks? Is the little book which comes with them is enough? Maybe you can advise me on general tarot readings/videos ? Im french btw, so i will watch if there's a traduction of what you will recommend to me. If you know if it's available in french too, i'll choose for french. I'm practically fluent in english, but I have some lacks in technical tarot terms. Thanks in advance for my demand, and keep doing great videos !!

[@rosemaryharrington5132]

This is the first time I have watched your videos. I was actually trying to decide between these two decks. and while this was helpful, I was most interested in the spread you were using to demo them toward the end. You did Present, Past, Future, and the elements but not sure what the last 2 cards laid were. Do you have a video or post about this spread?

[@TheTruthinStory]

Rosemary Harrington Hi there! I have an older video going thorough the spread here :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oH7TkqppnaafnpY

[@sashar7273]

I would love to get both but I can only get one😭 I'm going to get the prisma visions. Hopefully later on I can get light visions one day.

[@JenniferSMoreau]

What is the meaning of the prisms vision illumination card?? I got the deck off wish and there was no guide 😪.

[@denielleyvan5550]

That's just an extra card.

[@JenniferSMoreau]

Denielle Yvan oh ok ty 😊.

[@6Haunted-Days]

No guide means OOPS you got a fake one!!! That sucks!! It’s a SELF-published tarot deck tho, it WILL NOT be cheap….you get what you pay for AND literally put your $$ in criminals hands who are STRALING tarot artists hard years of work….I kno you didn’t do it on purpose….but many do! They’d rather get absolutely 💩 cardstock & icky off colors & printing……no book. Ain’t worth it AT ALL to me.

[@6Haunted-Days]

@@denielleyvan5550 ummm the extra card still has a meaning in the guidebook 🤷🏼‍♀️ unless you got a fake one too 😵🤣

[@RoopaDudleyPaintings]

Looks a lot like Van Gogh's art and I love Van Gogh's art.

[@6Haunted-Days]

It’s actually exactly like Impressionistic style of painting….so yea, that’s what it is 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 Just you know…if you want to see more art like this, I’d look THAT term up….not any kind of Van Gogh style would look like this really….

[@ladystarlightasmr]

I recently got the Prisma Visio deck and am absolutely in love with it!🥰💛 However, I made the mistake of not buying it directly on the artist’s site which was a lot cheaper but I didn’t get the Guidebook with it :/ As a beginner that would be really helpful to me but if I’d buy it separately the shipping would be three times the amount of the actual prize... Any idea how and where I could get the guidebook or maybe download it?

[@JenniferSMoreau]

Crazy Catnip I didn’t either because I bought it on wish. Now I barely use it.

[@sarahbarnhill3708]

The decks from Wish are counterfeit and don't give the artist any credit or payment. Looks like Etsy has had counterfeits before as well; this link is from the official page on Instagram. instagram.com/p/B6McE_lHtUl/?igshid=ymt3wpiosu7j

Love them both too❤️❤️❤️

[@jaclyncamacho2420]

I def want the prisma lights... but 45 bucks...ouch.

Definitely ouch, though I will say the quality is high for an independent deck, but it cuts the pocket!

How is the deck holding up ??? I have issues with mine. Prisma Vision Third edition

[@TheTruthinStory]

I have been told that my Prisma Visions is the 1st Edition and mine is holding up beautifully even with riffle shuffling. My Light Visions I think would be considered second edition and is also holding up well though it hasn't been shuffled as much as the Prisma!

[@MyUnoriginalLife]

strength is dandi-lions :’)

[@deslw]

Your telling me that there’s a sudden stop in the borders. The deck is utterly stunning but taking out the borders halfway did not seem like the right move. If they were gonna take out the borders for the minor arcana, they should have never done any for the major in the first place. Hopefully a version without any borders throughout the deck will come out one day. But great walkthrough!!! 🤔💞💞

[@6Haunted-Days]

Oh come on, not the end of the world 😂 Also it’s an ARTISTIC choice….good grief. And a REASON, a profound one at that….,but weirdly you assume there’s isn’t any reason for them 🙄
