Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best informative Tarot books I have read!
Review: Very easy to understand. Wonderful illustrations and has a lot of common sense on how to SEE a tarot card for what it is. I am very satisfied with this book and highly reccommend it for beginners as well as advanced in the reading of tarot cards.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A deck for the kinder gentler generation.
Review: When shopping for a tarot deck, one should always choose a deck that "speaks" to them, whether it be the use of color or the images of the deck. This deck I find the images rather weak or watered down. Take the card, The Wheel of Fortune, for example. In this deck it shows a woman going through various stages of emotion from happiness to depression instead of the tradition image of a wheel showing the waxing and waning of fate - a more powerful image. The Magician is also weak in the Robin Wood deck, a laughing man with antlers on his head - give me a break! When doing a reading the images should grab you and not make light of the situation as I feel this deck does. This deck is definitely for the faint of hearts out there.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wonderful Tarot deck, but not for everyone
Review: While I personally love the Robin Wood Tarot Deck and use it for my most personal and intimate readings, I can understand how some people don't like it. It is a very Pagan deck, containing ancient Pagan and Wiccan associations. It has no Egyptian or Christian or Medieval symbolism. Here is a short list of alternate Tarot decks that contain specific symbolism:

Medieval:Tarot de Marseilles

Christian:Rider-Waite or Universal Waite

Egyptian:Alestair Croweley Thoth Tarot Deck

Native American: Santa Fe Tarot

Blessed Be!
