Hi everyone, I had just placed my order for the above deck and book. Would anyone who owns this deck kindly give me a sneak preview ( 1st hand ) and what I can do to prepare for it? Your opinions are highly appreciated...! Thanking you anyone in advance

Hi Feebie, Please look at this thread here http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=13028 I do like this deck and do intend to do more work with it, sadly too many decks not enough time! The book tells you to meditate one card at a time and even tells you the order in which to go about it. I think I may do this with jmd's 78 cards to the conference thread. J :)

You can see all of the cards here I have this deck but I don't use it much. It's a very spiritual deck I would say - good for meditation and questions regarding inner growth. I found the majors to be a little dissappointing. Love and light Sulis xx

I love the book, also when I use a different deck I sometimes see what the TOS book has to say because it gives me energy to tackle the problems. I like the deck too although not all the cards. But I really love the way the swords are represented, and I think this is great because in so many decks they are all about hearts pierced and doom and gloom. Not that the TOS is all cheerful, but it gives you a positive outlook how to deal with the situation at hand which is what I want from a deck. As it is a spiritual deck some may find it too abstract or vague, but I find it easy to translate to the practical.

Hi Feebie I have just started working with my Tarot of the Spirit and I love it. It is along the same style as Thoth, but both the book and the deck seemed friendlier and a bit lighter to me. The book ties so many things together that I have decided to continue studying wtih the book and deck, card by card, now that I've moved on to another deck for my daily pulls. My Thoth is my overall power deck, but this one has joined that very exclusive club. Hope you enjoy yours as much. Thea

I have read most of the reviews on this deck and I am very impressed. Now I can't wait for the deck/book to arrive. The book arrives before the deck, so I will have enough time to learn about the deck . Surprisingly this is one of those decks that have mostly positive reviews. Normally, I like to have a tarot deck set if at all possible instead of just the deck. The book(s) usually are very intersting read and I have had some good times reading those; The Arthurian Legend Tarot, The Quest, Fey, Sacred Circle, Victoria Regina, Voyager's ( Way of the Great Oracle ), Animal wise, Romani..., to mention a few of the 'hefty' ones that gave me many hours of intersting readings.. For some reason, when a deck arrives unaccompanied by a book, it loses its charm pretty fast. Although, I may love most of Lo Scarabeo decks online, but when they arrive I find myself 'consulting' them less often than the ones that come with books. Tarot Books that accompany some decks are usually great assets and useful learning as well as meditating tools, that one can carry around and contemplate on for a long time; maybe forever.
