The Wild Unknown Tarot Deck and Guidebook (Official Keepsake Box Set)

Amazing cards, I love them so much and highly suggest to others.1. They come into a very lovely box. Makes cards easy to store, is durable. Cards themselves are in very good quality.2. This deck has animal family theme for court cards. This deck instead of King has Father, intead of Queen has a Mother, instead of Knight has a son, and instead of page has a Daughter cards. It is helpful for people who have difficulties to relate to court cards. Instead of people each suit is represented by an animal family. The family idea used helps to connect to the court cards for me to much deeper and meaningful level. I absolutely love court cards now.3. The artwork is so beautiful and full of symbology and meaning, but requires some time to adjust. Looking to symbols and what they have in common in all the cards and what is different, is helpful to understand the card messages. There are themes that unite some of the cards, it makes it interesting to explore them and add new meanings and show different sides of these energies.I highly recommend this deck, especially to people who find it difficult to connect to Court Cards. I love this deck so much! 💜

First things first - for the money - it's great value!2. The guidebook is one of the best I've seen in a box set! Simplistic, so easy to read and follow. No nonsense. Love the instructions and how to get into it if you're new to tarot and it makes sense. The book itself is great quality and a great compliment to the deck.3. The presentation box is amazing. Attention to detail has been put into this. The deck are also in their own box with a ribbon for easy removal. So a box inside a box, inside a sleeve. Nice touch.4. The deck itself, great illustrations and regardless if you're a newbie or not - so easy to follow. Superb illustrations. The cardstock isn't as great as I thought it would be. Still durable, but as I said at point one "Exceptional great value for Money" and worth it in my honest opinion for the guidebook.Really looking forward to using these :). A 5* +

So pleased I bought this deck, it is stunning, and whilst I know everyone has different decks that work best for them, this is definitely mine, intuitive and such a joy to work with. If you are very new to tarot it's worth noting that this is strictly speaking not a 'traditional deck' (which I actually like it even more for) and the beautiful, naturally inspired, evocative artwork, is 'pared down' imagery wise and so doesn't give the new reader as many visual clues as say, the Rider Waite deck. Again though, I have to say this only makes me love it more, its like reading cards through a dream and makes it even more possible to connect with that side of yourself.The 'guidebook' is beautifully put together too, with descriptions done in a very sympathetic way to the cards themselves, ie pared down, evocative and dreamlike. So, again, if you need/want a wider, more 'in depth' and comprehensive understanding of the cards, read around to increase your knowledge whilst this deck helps you tap into and hone your own intuition and interpretation. I am a collector of decks (moon garden, ancient egyptian, Japanese, herb, everyday, wooden and even kawaii!) but this deck is my go too and my favourite of them all.

To start off, the artwork on these cards is beautiful, and that's what originally attracted me to this deck.The guide book is really lovely as well, it has images of every card along with their meanings and description. It also has a few different spreads.The card quality is good. They are not the thickest cardstock but they aren't super flimsy like a lot of decks. Due to the cardstock and size of the cards they are probably my favourite deck to shuffle. I'd say they are semi-matte, they don't have that annoying shine that glossy cards have.Although it is quite a 'mainstream' widely produced deck I would say it is not the ideal deck for beginners as the images don't nod towards the Waite-Smith cards at all. That being said, it is important to feel connected to the imagery and art style and I think that's what makes this such a great deck.

but i got to ask.. was the booklet printed during a mercury retrograde?there are some pages missing and some printed in reverse [upside down]... we seem to be missing the 9 and 10 of pentacles... or maybe the book just wasn’t quite there yet eh! :Di feel like dropping a star or two due to the state of the book [check out the page numbers in the images]... i really am gutted that such an error was allowed to go through publishing.however... it is only the cards that i wanted and i’m feeling pretty generous today so you can have your five gold stars kim krans :)thankyou... according to the booklet i scored a first edition... idk if i’m lucky or unlucky in this case haha it happens... sometimes.EDIT: i just returned from le google... 3rd edition cards ["mass produced set"]. i'm still a little confused but i really can't listen to people talk about their cards on youtube any longer.whatever edition is here i'm more than happy with them.. the cards feel great, not too thick and not too thin.. the colours are nice and vibrant and the art is lovely.... virgos will be pleased to know that i will annihilate these cards and book over time through actual usage lol.
