  • A real gem to add to your collection

    One of the prettiest and most colorful decks ever made. Truly unique. I still have my original I acquired many years ago, and will sometimes find one and send it as a gift to friends. Getting harder to find, too. If you can locate them - pick one up. The deck has a 60's, psychedelic feel to it - almost a Peter Max-ish type of art, and is very handsome!

  • Great

    I was a little hesitant to buy any more tarot cards online because I received two fake decks in the past (shadowscapes tarot and witches Tarot). I took the chance and I'm glad I did I compared my deck with my friends and it's exactly the same including the little white book at a fraction of the price.( Tip; the fake tarot cards on eBay don't come with The Little Wave book)

  • The Best deck for Magick AND Readings!

    This is the preferred Tarot of the Order of the Golden Dawn, although the RW deck gets all of the applause. It is great for those who want to let their minds wander in the world of the spirits. This amazingly illustrated deck uses the correct names and symbolism for the Tarot Major Arcana and Minor cards. Although they are line drawings they are incredibly detailed and beautifully depicted. It is a powerful deck and I highly recommend if you are in HOGD or BOTA or AO, OTO and you want to learn the true nature of the cards and enhance your readings. I think of it as the 'grown up' deck because it doesn't resort to cute characters, fantasy drawings or primary colors to get your mind in contact with the world of the spirits or your higher genius. I hold this in high regard next to the Thoth Tarot as a most amazing rendition of the most profound book of all time. Soror SA 6-5* HOGD

  • It’s an amazing deck🔮

    I love the macabre style/ design of the art. It has that creepy, old look to it that makes it seems like an ancient deck. The overall size of the cards however, throws me off a bit. They’re a bit bigger than my other deck but I’m happy overall

  • I love this deck!

    Each card is so complex, with many symbols and images, that I know I have ample ways to connect with each card. This deck is exactly what I was looking for, including dried and high quality cards. Marvelous!

  • Bravo to the Hermetic Deck!

    The Hermetic deck provides a full range of esoteric images and meanings. Very effective if that’s compelling for you. A basic knowledge of Tarot is helpful.
