Summary: Art Deco Style Facilitates Intuitive Understanding of Cards
Review: This was the first of my 7 (so far) decks.
The deck is illustrated in the art deco style, informed by a medieval sensibility. The colors are in rich, muted tones which draw the viewer into the potential narrative surrounding the illustration. The book Psychic Tarot by Craig Junjulas is illustrated with, and explains the cards of this deck.
The cards are done with crisp, clear illustrations, with specific stylistic themes and elements repeated throughout the deck. This deck has a deeply positive, spiritual feeling. It encourages meditation and reflection through its multiple layers of images and meanings. The companion book provides traditional meanings for each card and points out elements of the illustrations that might not usually be incorporated in interpreting a deck. The book provides information on several spreads, emphasizing the Celtic Cross. Individual intuition is encouraged in developing deeper, personal interpretations of the cards. Several sample 'intuitions' are given. The book and the deck definitely enhance each other.
This was my first deck and has remained my favorite for over ten years. I feel a deep intellectual, metaphysical, and esthetic rapport with this deck. Because of this, I find it difficult to be objective in critiquing it. I'm sure there must be some negative things about it, but I can't say what they might be. I would recommend this deck to anyone looking for a beautiful, artistic deck, or a practical, utilitarian working deck.
This is my favorite deck.

Review: I've had three other decks before this one, but this one is by far the most comfortable deck I've worked with. Some tarot seem to have "personalities" that interfere with the readings, but this deck has a "personality" that is entirely helpful, relaxed, and comfortable. It's also very reliable. I very much enjoy the art...each card inspires, and tells its own tale.
