The deck is absolutely fantastic- in a way it reminds me of a lighter version of the Maroon tarot- and by lighter I do not mean fluffy, just less surreal with brighter colors.

This is a powerful deck that is coated in beauty- and I think that it throws many people off into thinking it is a "young" deck- but when you hold it in your hands, you realize that is definitely NOT the case. It will sit right next to my Maroon tarot on the ancestor altar.

I am sure you will love it!

And I will post in this thread about the book as well.

Thank you

I'm sure I will love it. I must admit that I'd glanced at it briefly and dismissed it when it first came out but when I took a proper look I realised that it has much more to offer. The colours are stunning, I agree. I feel like I have to apologise to the deck when it arrives!

I did as well- and probably would not have gotten it if it hadn't been for my daughter lusting over it. When we bought it, I looked at the cards and there is a lot of weight to them. Definitely not a young or fluffy deck- I have to hand it to my girl, she still may be a young woman- but she definitely can pick them out

She definitely can

I'm trying not to look at all of the cards online as I want to do that in person but the ones I've looked at are so lovely, with little touches that surprise me.

They are the same images, but when you get the cards the images are 100% better than what you see online. They crackle with energy and are so much more vibrant and beautiful!

Penthasilia and Essjay, I want to thank you both, as your conversation alerted me to the existence of the companion book, which I somehow hadn't discovered yet for myself! Ordering today (I so love a companion book...)...

It's a great deck -- I did a bit of a small reading just last night, and the deck continues to impress!!

By the way, I'll soon be starting up a Reading Exchange aimed at using the Crystal Visions deck (just haven't had time to do it properly yet), so please do consider joining in once it's up and running!

Okay, fantastic! If I can squeeze in the time later on, I'll get it going today...and if not, I should be able to get it in gear tomorrow. Looking forward to it! I can also post something in this thread to alert people, if that wouldn't be inappropriate...

Sounds great - count me in. My deck hasn't arrived yet but hopefully it should in the next couple of days

Just wanted to let all of you (and anyone else who might be interested) know that I just launched an official Reading Circle for working with the Crystal Visions:

Crystal Visions Exchange Circle

Please join in if you can!

Essjay, if your deck is late in arriving, but you'd like to take part in the Circle, please let me know, and we can probably hold up on launching until you receive your copy...

I just got my Crystal Visions Tarot and I love it.

Beyond the beautiful artwork, it is a well-thought out deck. Each suit has its own recognizable color scheme and the cards contain symbols that are helpful in readings and easy to recognize and remember. The Minor Arcana are every bit as detailed and meticulously rendered as the Majors.

I like glossy decks so I was very pleased with the high gloss finish. The deck shuffles beautifully and, as previously mentioned, the card backs are stunning.

As a big fan of fantasy art, this one will definitely be a favorite. Those colors are so luminous; I can't get enough of them!
