Newly published by Llewellyn, the Mystic Faerie Tarot deck is an absolute joy to behold and use. Linda Ravenscroft has created a beautiful painting for each card of the major and minor arcana, plus two extra faerie greeting and farewell cards. The four suites tell a faerie tale as the nature spirits embark on their magical adventures, but still remain true to traditional tarot archetypes. A 288 page book written by Barbara Moore accompanies the set which is insightful and informative, with detailed guides to all the cards plus faerie themed spreads, sample readings and a guide to using the cards. The deck and book come in a presentation pack which includes a pretty gold organza bag to store the cards in. This deck would be a wonderful set for a beginner, or for anyone drawn to the faerie realms.
