  • At first during catch up and cards, I thought the colours reminded me of those in Tarot of the Divine. I switched off then as I have that deck and I’d like something different. It’s a pretty deck but I’d prefer a bit more detail x thank you Simon for showing it x I hope you got your laundry done. 😊❤
  • Honest reviews are the best reviews! After seeing a full flip through I don't think it's for me. But we all have different tastes :)

    I love vector art! It feels very analog collage, but done digitally. Star Seeker Tarot is another great vector tarot deck. Thanks for sharing, Simon!
  • I do like the artwork, I love the edge gilding. I have the deck and have been using it alot. I think the cards are actually plastic, so it's a deck I feel safe to take camping with me. I enjoy using my deck very much.
  • Collage is my favourite all time style. It wasn't always. Taste is taste and very subjective to the individual. ❤
  • I do like the Hierophant card in this deck and also the lovely teal gilding. Other than that though it’s not one for me, thank you for the walkthrough my friend 😍❤️

    The colours are nice but the art style doesn't appeal to me either. As you said though Simon it's great there are so many styles on offer, something for everyone. I appreciate your honest reviews. Have a good weekend!
  • I very much like the stylized quality of this deck and how the juxtaposition of sharp edges set the contrasting colors off against one another making them all pop. It's a strong illustration style reminiscent of children's book art, or even Japanese paper cut design. Also kind of reminds me of that Tarot For All Ages deck I liked so much.
  • @elspeth6807
    I like this a lot. I like the art style as well. It’s definitely a deck I would use.
  • Don't know enough about vector art to make a decision about it. If it's just used to tidy up human art, I'd be okay with it. As for the deck, the artwork is beautiful. Although not being a star maiden, and having no plans to become one, it's not one for me :) Great deck though, thanks for the review! Enjoy the weekend 😎👍

    I can appreciate vector art in certain applications. But for a tarot deck, overall, there needs to be a depth to the art to have a true experience with the deck. Vector art, although appealing at times, is too "flat" to achieve a quality tarot "feel". No offense intended to vector artists. 😊

    I do like the art style but I must admit that I put it on my wishlist and the more walkthroughs I watch the less enamored I am with it. I think part of it is that I do like bright, vibrant colors but I don't love primary colors or neon colors which is what a lot of vibrant decks use so this stood out as unique to me. I was 80% sold on it but now I'm more 20%.
  • I ordered the deck immediately after seeing it reviewed by another reader. I love the color combinations and illustrations. My only complaint is that the cards keep flipping out of my hands. The linen finish is slippery.
  • I don't like the art style, there were a few cards that I really liked, but most of them were a miss for me.
  • As soon as I saw this I ordered it. Linen and guilding? - yes! Bliss. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside 😂

    I'm laughing as I'm sat watching this while I've got laundry hung everywhere and the washing machine on too. I do like this deck but I know what you mean about these graphic art styles, but I find I like illustrative styles like these more than the graphic collage styles (many, many late 90s and early 00s decks spring to mind). You made a really respectful expression of your views, I don't think they come across as unfair at all. They're still human made, so I wouldn't lump them in with generative algorithm ("AI") decks. Overall this seems like a very "friendly" deck, simple but not simplistic.

    The artwork reminds me of a certain kind of children's book illustrations popular in the early 80s. I like it and don't...same with the children's books, I would pick them up, have a look but then decide no. Thank you so much for any video you manage to upload.
  • When I wrote my review for a local metaphysical shop, my theme was what decks can you use to study RWS-style tarot if you're a person who doesn't like Pixie's OG art. I included this deck, the Old Style Tarot, Fyodor Pavlov, and Ethereal Visions -- Luna Edition as four possibilities. I do like this deck on its own because I find it quite cheery and bright. Sometimes you just need a little pick-me-up in your spiritual practice. Thank you for sharing, Simon.
