I love the Radiant Rider Waite, and equally the Universal Rider Waite. I move between the two. I much prefer these to the earlier versions, and in my opinion these wonderful "twins" are the standard RWS........for me. Enjoy your deck and Tarot. Welcome to the tribe!! Peace............Michael

ROTF!!!!! Slippery indeed :D:D:D

Nice review BTW Fulgour, that was the first I had seen it.

I have Radiant and mostly I use it for study.. I have found the cards to be slippery })

I love the radiant deck, too. It's a terrific starter deck.

Hi Piscesdreamer - we met on another thread. Congratulation! Welcome to the wonderful world of Tarot symbols. I learnt with Colman-Smith's original deck, though I have moved on since, but still have it tucked away somewhere :)
BTW - it is also a European deck!

I don't own the Radiant version, but I've seen it - it's beautiful.

And who knows, you might one day move gently towards the Fournier Tarot de Marseille ;) (the Fournier also has gorgeous colours) (it took me 7 years to discover TdM, and I've not abandoned my previous loves, just added to them).

The Radiant Rider-Waite

Actually, these cards are not too boldly bright ; they're more luminescent or glowing than light-bulb radiant.They bring out mixes of shadow and light, too, unlike the typical US Games version, with its flat, lined-in colors. And they're slippery as salamanders. Are they the Ur-radiant Tarot?
