I saw this Majors only deck once and it came with the deck and English book. I wish I would have bought it then, i have not seen it since.
If anyone has this deck or deck & book set can you please post the ISBN so I can see if I can order it.
Thanks!

This looks like an interesting deck. Never heard of it before, thanks for bringing it to our attention !
Love the Magician with the beech-nut cover for a hat.

Isnt he cute? I think this deck would be 'used' more for my collection and pleasure since it is majors only.

Oh, I really like these cards. I would love to have a complete deck in this style, because I don't like working just with the major cards...but it doesn't matter, I love it.
Can you also buy an english version? I just know the german version of the "tree tarot".

Hi Fan-
I thought I had seen an english book with this deck a few years ago, but I have not seen one since so I may have been mistaken.
I too would love a complete deck but I will take what I can get, I just love them!
I see you are in germany, you would have easier access to this deck. lucky you!

I have this deck. I ordered it from the German Amazon site, whcih was fun because it's all in German so it took days to figure it out,HeHe.
It's a tiny little deck. I have never taken it out of the plastic.
Hope this helps!!

What fun !
I ordered the set deck + book (in German) through amazon.de. The deck is small but of good quality. There are additional cards which have the card meanings on them, a few examples of spreads and advised books (like a lwb printed on cards).
The book also has a short description of card meanings + spreads, I think it is the same as on the cards, and 22 chapters on the trees mentioned on the cards, but they are stories/fairy tales rather than card meanings. Or it could be the fool's journey being told - anyway it is not dry card meanings. I'm looking forward to reading those; the deck creator, Frederik Hetmann, has written many children's books and fairy tales.
And I also got a little sachet with seeds from a birch, a beech and another tree I don't know the translation for just now. My neighbours have a huge birch tree, I'm never without birch seeds they're everywhere, LOL, but I think the idea is just so cute and original.
I was pleasantly surprised by this all.
