A week
ago I've ordered this deck from Book Depository and I didn't expect it until
next week, so I was pleasantly surprised to have found it in my mailbox yesterday; like a Imbolc gift for myself.

Now I have
this deck I cannot imagine why I've never felt the urge before to buy it. The cardstock
is smooth and of good quality and it shuffles
like a charm. But most important are of course the magnificent vibrant colors
of the borderless cards. The color palette transports you immediately back to
the seventies Perhaps it is funny to say but they make me feel young. Listening
to music from those days can also provoke feelings like that.
The imagery
is mostly Rider Waite based but it is like the camera has zoomed in, so you are
very up close to the characters, which gives this deck an intimate feel. I expect
it will read particularly good with larger spreads because you can easily get
an overview of the situation thanks to the clarity of the images of this deck.
I am
looking forward to read with it. Tonight I will “officially” use it for the first
time for my Imbolc reading (Of course I've played with it and tried it out
already. But then who wouldn't? J)
I felt the same way about the MG; I didn't really think much of it until I held it in my hands. I too love the 'seventies vibe' and the borderless cards. There's nothing more exciting than getting a new deck and discovering you like it even more than you thought you would!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more! I am so happy with it:D
DeleteI'm so happy that you're enjoying this deck!! It's very beautiful - it first captured my eye due to its color and lack of borders when reading one of Joanna Ash's blog posts last summer, and I purchased it. It is really rich. I never thought about the 70s connection until later I read a review and someone commented on the fact that all the men look like copies of Tom Selleck!!!… but yes, it's quite easy to shuffle, and lovely to look at :)
ReplyDeleteIt sure is a lovely deck. The guys do look like Tom! LOL
DeleteIt is nice we share a liking for some of our decks :)
