Publisher Review:

I still remember the first time I saw the original Star Wars movie. The good guys win against impossible odds. The evil empire was defeated. And I felt happy and great. Using The Robin Wood Tarot didn't help me overcome an evil empire, but it did have a similar result: I felt really good about just using this deck. Some Tarot decks are very neutral. But look at the Sun card. That's one happy baby And when someone else smiles it encourages you to smile. Using this deck is simply a pleasurable experience. If you have been using the Waite deck, or one that follows that so-called standard, this deck is a pleasurable surprise. It follows the standard, but so many cards have slight but subtle differences that you'll wisely smile. This is good, you'll think. I've mentioned some of the differences above. But look at the Ace of Wands. Hidden in the wand is a strand of DNA. The tip of the wand (as all of the Wands) has a crystal attached, bringing the imagery into a modern frame. And of course, the wands are a masculine symbol, so are the two sunflowers on the card (referencing the Sun card?) that flank the central wand a hint of that symbolism? That's clever. It makes me smile. . . read more.
