The cards themselves are beautifully illustrated, but the card stock feels a bit flimsy. They shuffle easily though, sliding smoothly with a finish not too slick or too sticky. The border takes up only a small margin, but personally I prefer a larger card to better see the detail in the images. And,/ I miss the inclusion of the organza bag that used to come with these tarot kits, that was such a nice touch.

Now it's time to take a look at a few selected cards that I have chosen as some of my favorites.

•The Hierophant: "Your every thought, word, and action expresses the truth of your soul." Core meaning: Living faith in everyday life.

•Ace of Pentacles: "How does it feel to hold the potential of the world in your hand?" Core meaning: An opportunity for prosperity.

•Three of Swords: "The misuse of tools can lead to a mickle mess." Core meaning: Sorrow caused by knowledge.

•The Tower: "If it doesn't kill you, it makes you stronger." Core meaning: An unexpected event that changes everything.
