What Customers Are Saying About Exploring Tarot Using Radiant Rider-Waite® Tarot Deck and Book Set
I'm just learning and exploring the tarot. I heard that Rider-Waite was pretty much everyone's go to. I just got the package and so far I love it. The colors are vivid and the book that comes along with it includes information on reversed cards.

This is a fantastic set for beginners, collectors and readers. The cardstock is a good thickness and the colours of the cards are brilliant. I started reading Tarot with the original RWS deck 38 years ago and still recommend it as a good place to start for beginners. The book is huge, 264 pages all in colour. Starts with an Introduction, Intuition, Allegory and Dialogue, How to use this book, Deck spreads and a Glossary of Tarot related terms. You also receive a full colour spread Celtic Cross sheet for readings. My favourite part is the Tarot Symbolism at the end where it tells you what the images on the cards mean, it adds so much more understanding to your readings. This is definitely a must have for any Tarot Reader.

The color enhancement makes the symbols and colors more meaningful. If you like to have a more pleasant look at the RW Tarot, buy this. If you like a more mysterious, original feeling, get the Universal Waite, Centennial, or original RW Tarot. Card back is awesome. Guidebook is a +++ more stars to this item, because this helps me as a beginner Tarot reader to understand the feeling of each card at a glance, and let my intuition take over the rest.

The book is beautiful and colorful. And, I think it may work for many who are looking for a simple and concise guide to the Tarot. So, for some this will be exactly what they're looking for. It has great illustrations - and is printed and has a layout that makes it very pleasing to the eye, easy to digest and easy to locate information.
