Shapeshifter Tarot

Summary: PHENOMENAL! DEFINITELY A DECK WORTH OWNING AND GROWING WITH
Review: "The Shapeshifter Tarot is very impressive. The images on the cards are so ethereal, magically rendered from the realm of Camelot and the land of fairies. The book is a magical catalyst. Sirona Knight and D.J. Conway are a dynamic duo of writers whose styles and visions synthesize gloriously. "The Shapeshifter Tarot" stretched my magical vision beyond its limits. I predict that this will establish these authors as leaders in the spiritual writing field. There is a wonderful feeling of spiring and of nature's unexpected potential in this deck...Michael Peter Langevin, Publisher, Magical Blend Magazine.

Summary: This is most amazing tarot deck I have ever used.
Review: DEFFINITELY THE BEST TAROT DECK OUT THERE! After buying the deck, I sat down and did some readings for some of my friends, and we were all amazed at how right on the cards were. The images are splendid, and the book very informative although the cards are so easy to use that I found myself not having to refer to the book. This deck is for people who are looking for something more than just a traditional deck. The idea of shapeshifting and using power animals is great, and I'm looking forward to other books on this subject. I highly recommend this deck to all who use tarot to do readings for themselves and others. The cards are very accurate.

Summary: Phenomenal tool for personal growth
Review: Dj Conway, with her intellectual and practical way of writing is well balanced by Shirona Knight's passionate and intuitive style. You will find yourself relating to one or the other better, but there are equal benefits from listening and appreciating the other. The illustartions by Lisa Hunt invite you to shape shift straight into the card. The new layouts and representation of the cards invite you to expand your knowledge and explore new life paths. To a beginner who is just knowing hte tarot it may be confusing to find the basis, but I think it will benefit all who try to use it for personal growth.

Summary: Less Than So-So
Review: Goes to show you that you must be able to see a deck for yourself before buying...Based on the (mostly) positive reviews I found for this deck, I bought it. I found that I was one of the minority of people who didn't like this deck. I honestly think it's a very average deck; the cards are nothing special. In fact, the best card of all is the one on the cover! Some of the other cards look so similar in appearance that I keep confusing them!
All in all, I don't really like this deck, but as I said, YOU CAN'T GO BY REVIEWS! If you can look at a friend's copy, then you can see for yourself if YOU like it! There's no accounting for taste!

Summary: Wonderful imagery.
Review: I agree with all of the previous reviews about this deck but I do want to note one disappointment I found. The cards are not manufactured as thickly or solidly as all of my other decks. They are quite flimsy. I find I'm almost afraid to shuffle them as they might crease or bend permanently and distort the beautiful pictures.

Summary: A bit disappointed
Review: I am a very major fan of Ms Conway's work. Her insights and writings have inspired me for years. The art work & visions are superb BUT the companion book has a landmine. Constantly I am told how important it is to balance the male & female energy in EVERYTHING. Those of us on the Goddess path will simply have to do extra work to find our way.

Summary: Beautiful but Different
Review: I bought these cards because the images really called to me. As I was hoping for a more traditional deck, it was a little disappointing to find them titled so non-traditionally as this is my first deck of tarot. However, I like that the companion book gives equivilents to traditional tarot and I also like the use of the Elements. I agree that some of the titles are confusing but for a beginner, who needs to use the book a lot anyway, it's not that much of a problem. Overall I think they are a beautiful and helpful set.

Summary: Passable, ...
Review: I bought this deck as something to work with before I made my own tarot cards. It works well enough for its purpose, but the meanings and such are way too watered down. For instance, tghey substitute the Death card with Rebirth and the Devil card with Choice. Since when was Choice such a bad thing as to be related to a generally negative card? Also, the format (warrior instead of Knight, God/Goddess for King/Queen, Seeker for Page) is confusing. The method of using titles instead of 8 of cup or whatever is also tough when trying to translate over into more traditional decks. Don't even look at the book, other than for the translations from this deck to the traditional one. It is sugary sweet and does not serve a purpose when trying to get the true meaning of a reading. However, the deck itself works as well as any, and has beautiful artwork. If you're more of a Rider-Waite fan, don't bother.
