Light Seer's Tarot: A 78-Card Deck & Guidebook

I'll preface by saying I'm no expert in spirituality. I've only recently started diving into the many layers, the many forms, the many expressions and tarot cards was the first part I discovered. There's so much to say about decks, whether they should have traditional art, or whether the art should be expressive etc etc. Having been so confused at the time about what should be the determining factor of what makes a deck, I came across a simple video with the key words "trust your intuition". And boy was that the MOST ACCURATE thing I've heard. I first came across the deck in a deck collection video and I remember feeling so drawn to how vivid and detailed the art was that I thought to myself, this is it, this is the first deck I want. And I bought it pretty much the same day. So here's my takeaways having worked with this deck for quite some time now. Firstly, THE ART. It is so beautifully done. Even without having a detailed intuition, one can easily interpret the meanings of each card. I love the representations of different races that is prevalent throughout the deck as it really gives this meaning that the deck is for everyone and everyone can read tarot. The art ties deeply into both the surface meanings, and their hidden implications. For example: many know the 3 of Swords to be a betrayal card but the art beautifully draws in the fact that it could represent a time to recover and heal. Each card seems to always take deeper meanings into play and that includes all the minor arcana as well, not just the majors. On the topic of the deeper meaning, ITS PERSONALITY. One of the things I've discovered about reading is that decks have more energy than we give them credit for and this leads to them having their own personality. And this deck LOVES deeper meanings. You'll find that your readings will draw deep into the unknown, the suppressed or the hidden to give you the reading that you might not have asked for, but unknowingly needed. It's the kind of deck that gives you a ray of light in a dark situation or a new perspective or guiding you to remember what it is you've put away and neglected. This might be a negative thing for those who want lighter, heartier readings and don't always want a reading that's too deep but for someone with lots to unpack like myself this is a large pro in my book. The Cardstock. It's not exactly the greatest, but pricing considered it's arguably worth it. The stock bends nicely but I've personally decided not to riffle shuffle as it tends to leave some nicks on the edges of the cards and it could be my own OCD habits but they tend to rattle me a bit but should you love to riffle shuffle you won't find it to be troublesome. Lastly, THE GUIDEBOOK. As someone who bought this deck as a beginner, the guidebook was a necessity. Not a basic guidebook. Not a pamphlet. But a detailed guidebook that would take me through the entirety of the card from its surface meanings straight down to all its hidden implications and the guidebook does WONDERS in achieving that. It leaves little surface meanings for both the upright and reversal meanings of the card followed by a detailed message on the entirety of what the card represents. I find that reading the surface meanings will help trigger my own intuition nicely, however for cards that elude me, the following paragraph(s) clears everything up for me quite nicely. All in all, I must give this deck 5 stars. It's been a favored deck by many, some of whom have been in the business for years. That speaks highly of it already. While not many will feel that connection to the deck, for those who do and those whom are interested, I can guarantee that you will not regret adding this deck to your collection. Wonderful job, Chris-Anne!

If you saw my desk right now, he would wonder why I bought another set of tarot cards. I have sets for the more experience readers, and I have ones that are meant for newer readers like myself. This particular set is for all readers. It uses cups, swords, pentacles, and wands; easy to read. Nice book (havent read). Very nice box. The artwork is very much like Coraline (the movie). The design on them is cool. I have 5 favorite sets (easy to read). This is one of them. There are others i advocate for, but these are just as great. Highly recommend!!!

This deck is packed with life and is really well suited for surface-level topics like career, love, intuition and psychic experiences, etc. (I usually clarify with RWS when it's called for and for the deep psychological and truly spiritual things, I find the Jodorowsky-Camoin Tarot de Marseille indispensable!) But this deck is a workhorse as most of your inquiries (or your client's) will be dealt with almost solely with Chris-Anne's lovely reinterpretation of the English School tarot. The card stock is good for riffle shuffling if your hands are large enough (it's a thick deck), and it has a matte finish so it doesn't slide easily in the beginning, until you break them in a bit. The most important thing with any tarot deck though, is it's accuracy, and this thing is right on the money every single time. This tells me the symbolism and imagery is both intuitive and well thought out. Worth the cost even at full price. If you like the artwork, just buy it and enjoy!!!

Beautiful cards. The guidebook is very helpful. This is a great tarot deck for someone who is looking for the light in their own life and the lives of others. It seems to know the right things to say at the right times. The illustrations are beautifully done, and the explanations are well thought out. I am glad this was my first deck, it is modern and relevant. The only thing I would like to see is more examples of layouts in the guidebook, especially as the artist uses forced reversals, which don’t seem to be common in other resources I have used, and I think the forced reversals are insightful. Five stars, well done! Update: I am still working with this deck, through hard times it has been spot on with its guidance and insight. It has been honest yet caring in its delivery of the message. There have been times I was advised to rest and recover from burnout and overwork, times I was prompted to review what is important, and times I was directed to open my eyes at the wonder of possibilities that come with so many big life changes including death and the simultaneous ending of my job position. It is likely that this will remain my only deck, as it meets all of my needs. I am glad I found this as my first deck. I like that I am able to draw cards in the morning, and if they are still on my mind at work or away, I can go to the website and read more in detail about the cards and reflect on them further.

Reedito opinión (producto adquirido hace unos meses) NUEVO COMENTARIO: Domingo recibí el mazo de cartas Light Seer’s Tarot, un tarot que ha estado envuelto (nunca mejor dicho) de “luces y sombras”. Al ver una review en español de este producto, de una forma inmediata sentí la atracción que todo coleccionista de tarots siente por las cosas bellas. Así, y sin pensármelo dos veces y atendiendo al precio asequible que tenía en Amazon (20 euros y poco más), decidí adquirirlo. Y aquí, comienza mi “via crucis” personal. Una vez comprado y a la espera de recibirlo, comencé a mirar por ***tube toda las reviews habidas y por haber del producto. ¿Resultado? TERROR. En el 90% de las reseñas se destacaba que el producto que había llegado a las manos de la mayoría de compradores anglosajones, era DEFECTUOSO: naipes unos mayores que otros, material de las cartas endeble, mazo con marcas profundas que afectaban a la forma misma de los arcanos… En fin, un desastre. Y lo peor: ya lo había pagado. Y llegó la compra. Cuando lo tuve en mis manos fue como abrir “una caja de sorpresa”. No sabía qué me deparaba el contenido. Pues bien, lo que encontré fue un mazo de cartas de Tarot perfecto (o casi perfecto): cartas bien cortadas, colores e imágenes absolutamente fascinantes, aparentemente ningún tipo de deterioro y todo dentro de una rígida caja de cartón verdosa-azulada que ayuda a dar esa aura de baraja especial al Light Seer’s Tarot. ¿De dónde venían, pues, tantas críticas? Todo tiene su explicación. Originariamente, este tarot tuvo una edición limitada (la “Indie versión”) que fue realmente aclamada positivamente por la crítica. Esta versión, que pagando bastante quizás la podáis conseguir, se caracterizaba porque tenía los bordes verdes y estaba fabrica con materiales de primera calidad. Cuando se agotó (el boca-oído funcionó) la autora, Chris-Anne, cedió los derechos de publicación de su exitosa baraja a la editorial “Hay House” (sinceramente, creo que lo hizo con buena intención: al no ser una empresa de las grandes, debería pensar que eso aportaría cierta calidad). Craso error. Fue una chapuza y lo que debería haber sido un trato exquisito y respetuoso para con la autora de esta baraja y su obra “maestra”, se convirtió en un desastre (con todos los defectos que ya he contado previamente). ¿Y por qué a mí me llegó bien? Sencillamente porque después del alud de críticas feroces sobre todo desde el ámbito anglosajón, se hizo una reedición a partir del mes de febrero/marzo de 2020… Si cuando haces el pedido te llega la reedición del 2020, estás de enhorabuena; si contrariamente, te envían un “fondo editorial” de diciembre de 2019… te toca patalear. Finalmente, ¿Qué opinión me merecen estas cartas? De entrada y formalmente son preciosas. Como coleccionista “amateur” de barajas, antiguas y modernas, creo que es de las más bonitas que tengo: colores vívidos, imágenes sugerentes no exentas de simbolismo, muy intuitivas… ¡Una obra de arte! (¡I que tristeza que no mantuvieran el color verde de los laterales como en la “indie versión”!) En cuanto a los materiales, eso es otra cosa. He leído alguna opinión sobre esta edición comentando que está fabricada en papel fino y de mala calidad. En este sentido, disiento: el papel no es fino, pero está hecho de una cartulina -de poca calidad, eso sí- que no soportará ser barajada frecuentemente sin que se abran los bordes. Por otro lado, y a pesar de haber enmendado los desastrosos errores de la 1ª edición, en mi caso, el reverso de algunas cartas tiene sutiles (y prácticamente inapreciables) marcas… que no deberían estar. Tampoco me molesta, la verdad. Como siempre, la transacción, envío y entrega por parte de Amazon, excelente. Se agradece su esfuerzo y profesionalidad en estos días difíciles.

These cards are beautiful. Great for intuitive readers as there is something in the images that calls upon one's intuition to work. The energy of the cards I received are very positive also which is quite amazing.

This is my first proper deck, my previous one was a cheap RW that wasn’t very good quality. The connection to this deck was instant and my intuition kicked in straight away. Like I can read it instantly, I’ve never had that with my last deck. It felt so flat. This is absolutely beautiful. I did an introductory reading that made me cry it spoke to me so well. I can see this being my favourite. Just gorgeous ❤️

جميلة واصليه والوانها رائعة 🤩♥️

Good
