Misleading Description!!

I was told in the description that I would be receiving The Enchanted Tarot Book and Cards. Sadly, I only received the book. I am very disappointed.

A Beginner's Enchanted Dream

This was my first set of Tarot cards. Within no time I was not only doing my own cards, but those of friends and family. These cards have always been right on the money. Each time I have done the cards for a person who has never had their cards read, they have become true believers in the Tarot. The designs are exquisite and the book is simple to use. The explanations for each card are easy to understand and have a very powerful message. The biggest plus about these cards is that the messages are designed to give one hope that no matter how bad things are, there are ways to battle back and with perserverence and hard work, no matter how horrible the situation may seem, a positive outcome is always possible. A must for beginners and a wonderous addition for experienced Tarot readers.

By far, one of the best tarot decks and tarot books around!

I've used The Enchanted Tarot since it first came out in 1990 and I have never found it necessary to use another deck. I have been reading professionally for twenty years and my clients, since I started using it, always comment on how beautiful the cards are. Before I used The Enchanted Tarot, they never commented on my other decks. The fabric collage tapestries of Amy Zerner are beyond beautiful and have a multi-cultural quality unlike anything I have ever seen. Almost all the other tarot decks I've seen are dark and spooky, or so amateurish as to be laughable. Those are the kind of decks that give tarot a bad name. The Enchanted Tarot is gentle and healing and I've gone through two sets myself and given many, many sets away as gifts. The Enchanted Tarot is what the tarot can and should be: beautiful, powerful, and accurate. Buy it, you won't be sorry!

Review from a Collector & User of The Tarot

I have a special place in my heart for this deck, though I have used it seldom since '93 or so. This is the First Tarot Deck I ever owned--purchased on October 13, 1990. I believe this is a great Starter Deck and I always had great success with the readings. One particular reading, that I wrote in my journal, was absolutely astonishing and accurate to the tiniest detail.... I love the great hard-back, beautiful book that comes with the deck (complete with attached ribbon bookmark). At the time, I was not interested in the more popular decks and was drawn to this one.... I believe Women and Artistic-minded people will enjoy and treasure this deck. It is a great introduction to the Tarot, and inspired me to write a Poem.

most positive

I believe that with tarot one must develop a personal connection with the cards, but I think anyone interested in a beautiful and positive deck would love this one! The artwork is tapestry with pastels and sequins and is absolutely beautiful. Every picture is full of symbolism that reflects aspects of the message of each card. I am quickly learning to read the cards instead of relying on the book because it is so easy to understand the message by looking at the visual clues, I have studied 3 decks so far but seen about 50, and this one is the easiest to 'translate'The book also breaks each card down into three aspects, the 'dream' meaning of the card, which gives a literal description of the card itself and the message reflected. The second aspect is the awakening, which gives plain-spoken advice on how to put the message into action in your life, and the third aspect is the enchantment, with gives little rituals/visualizations one can use to further manifest the card's message. As for the artwork, it is stunning and positive! Even Death looks jaunty, like he's about to break out in a tap dance routine at any moment. The ten of swords is the card I always turn to, to give me an idea of the energy behind a deck. The ten of swords (Ruin) in this deck is represented by a woman laying down the body of a young girl. It is somber as it should be, but depicts an air of resignation and acceptance. Most 10 of swords give me the heebie jeebies, this one I thin is perfect.The Book is well worded, the cards have beautiful artwork and positive energy, it is my *very* favorite. I usually have something 'negative' to say in a review in the interest of honesty, but I can't think of anything negative about this one!

So great to work with that I wore out the book! (help!)

I have many tarot decks and this one, purchased about 9 years ago, has always been the one I brought out when I wanted a really accurate reading (although I know each person has to get one that's best for him/her). I used it a lot in college and people from all over campus would come to get a reading because it was so accurate (I haven't had the same luck with other decks--again, I know it's a personal thing). The stories that go with the cards make them easy to understand and follow/interpret, and there is so much going on in the pictures you never tire of looking at them. My only complaint is that my book has worn out (thanks to a little help from the dog) and I want to replace it, but I don't need another deck of cards (those are kept in silk and are still in excellent condition). Is there anywhere I can just purchase the book, without the cards? I hope so! I'll check back on this page from time to time in hopes someone can help. :)
