Product Description Based on the ancient Bardic system of understanding the universe, the Faery Wicca Tarot, by Kisma K. Stepanich, blends traditional Tarot images with the mystical symbolism of modern Faery Wicca magick. Faery Wicca traces back to a distant age when gods inhabited the world and the lands and oceans were divided among them. These deities came from the OtherWorld, where they acquired secret knowledge, science, prophecy, and magick, now illustrated in a usable form in the Faery Wicca Tarot. Unlike any other, this deck has five sections, beginning with forty Element cards, ten each for air, earth, fire, and water. Next come sixteen Helper cards, consisting of a maiden, knight, high king, and high queen for each suit, similar to the court cards. Then come twenty-two Ancient Ones cards, similar to the traditional major arcana. The last sections include the Power card and four Gift of Faery cards. Together, the eighty-three cards of the Faery Wicca Tarot give you a deck steeped in Irish Faery tradition. Beautifully illustrated by Rene Christine Yates, this deck helps you experience the Faery wisdom first hand. Included in this set is a 181-page booklet that reveals the meaning of the ancient symbolism, as well as the meanings of each of the cards of the Faery Wicca. The booklet also explains the meanings of each of the cards of the Faery Wicca Tarot. Use it to steep yourself in the Faery tradition. Of course, to use the Tarot for divinations, you will need various spreads. The booklet includes more than a dozen spreads with a complete analysis of how to use them to help you make positive life changes, determine your best course of action, and awaken greater psychic perception.

spontaneous purchase and just what i needed November 5, 2007 sugarleaf (rhode island) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
as most tarot users will tell you, they have more than one deck that they use and i am no exception. it is true that each deck has their own feel and, dependng on the moment of a reading, one will gravitate to the one that calls in that moment. this is a most unique deck. while some are put off by the extra cards in the deck, i feel they work, especially since there is such obvious care in the deck's creation. some have also criticized the art on the cards. i say that it is a very personal opinion and obviously, what works for someone may not work at all for another. at first i was a little disappointed myself until i started using the cards. then the explanations in the book and the cards themselves all came together. i could feel a very different and refreshing energy about these cards and they were, and are, just what i needed.
beautiful and easy to use January 4, 2007 Cole Lea (Pittsburgh, PA) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
this is one of the most beautiful decks I have ever seen. I also appreciated the intricacy. I recommend this for serious tarot readers as opposed to the casual dabbler as it is a bit complicated ( I like that!)
Attractive June 3, 2005 Deanna Joseph (California) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
What originally drew me to this deck was the Empress card, known as The Mother Goddess card. The artwork is beautiful, and I found all the cards in the major arcana to be very attractive. The court cards are exceptional too.
I did have some difficulty with the minor arcana, but I am not an experienced tarot reader and there were not enough symbols to attempt any sort of meaning. I found myself constantly referring to the book. A more experienced tarot reader (or someone who has the meanings of all the cards memorized) would enjoy this deck, but I found it rather difficult to read with. What I did find interesting about the minor arcana was that if you laid the cards out in order they are actually taking you down a very obvious visual pathway.
The book itself is fun, and she has some interesting tarot layouts to try.
This is not a light and fluffy deck, and it gives readings that are no nonsense and forthright. And where I don't believe it's an easy deck for the beginning tarot reader I wouldn't let that deter anyone from trying it.... there's always the book to turn to.
Overall I have found this deck to give powerful readings, and have enjoyed working with it.
Wheres the Cards? May 4, 2004 6 out of 13 found this review helpful
I ordered this book online at Amazon.com. I thought the first couple of chapters were pretty good. But where are the cards? This is a book, they don't even provide you with pages you can make your own xerox copies of the cards.Unless you happen to be particularly talented as an artist and have time to create and paint your own cards I would recommend getting a book that comes with a deck you can get your hands on.
It's quite lovely November 5, 2002 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
As an Irish gent recently relocated to America, I was enchanted to come across this tarot deck. Ms. Stepanich does quite a nice job tying the tarot into the druidic/bardic mysteries, to which my family lineage is connected. I think the other chaps out to get this Irish-American woman should just relax and see the spirit reflected here rather than continue to attempt to denegrate her every move.
