I love this gorgeous, luminous little deck, it's one of my favorites. It's one of the most charming, whimsical tarot decks I’ve ever seen, and I think the colors and the design are absolutely fantastic. This is a hard deck to photograph; the cards are small and the camera doesn't easily convey how vivid the colors are, or how effective the contrast is between the dark blues and blue-grey (the artist's favorite color) and the glints of bright colors throughout. I've never tested it, but it seems like a deck that might actually glow in the dark.

 

The theme is generally artistic inspiration and idealism —  the suits are presented as brushes (wands), hearts (cups), quills (swords), and diamonds (pentacles). The court cards are dreamers (pages), the vehicle-driving zeealots (knights), paragons (queens), and mentors (kings).  It's a gentle deck, full of subtle insight; I love reading with it and my friends love getting readings from it. Its relative low price among tarot decks makes it something of a wonder for me.

 

Note that the tuck box it comes in isn't very sturdy and fell apart very rapidly, so you'll want to find a small tarot bag or box as unique as the deck is. 🙂
