Fantastic Tarot Deck!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This was my first Tarot deck. The book is wonderfully written to help the new user. The artwork on the deck is beautiful. After a couple of years, I gave the deck to a friend to learn. I now find I miss this deck and have purchased it again along with the workbook. I would highly recommend this deck to either a new user or and experienced reader.
The best

Have bought other books as well but this seems to be easy to follow and it makes things interesting. The deck is very nice. I'm very glad I purchased it.
Fantastic beginner's deck for Tarot
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
The Sharman-Caselli Tarot is a fantastic deck for beginners. The images are based on those in the Rider-Waite deck, but have much more psychological and artistic depth. Since the images correspond to those in the Rider-Waite, the beginning tarot student will have no trouble using the cards in this deck with any number of books on Tarot. The images are also quite evocative, and lend themselves well to study and meditation. The apparent simplicity and pleasing colors of the images give way to subtleties of detail and symbolism that strike a good balance between suggesting meaning and leaving room for interpretation. The book that comes with the deck is a good introduction, but tends toward the overly optimistic side and doesn't go into great depth. It's fine for starting out, but you'll want to supplement this deck with other books about Tarot, such as Rachel Pollack's Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom.
