New Palladini Tarot Deck & Book Set Cards – July 1, 1997

Beatutiful deck. It's classic.

Great starter deck for beginners. Illustrations are impressive yet not too scary for younger readers. One of the physically largest cards buyable on mass market. Book is easy to follow, very detailed, and gives several basic reading layouts. Awesome way to learn the art.

This is a beautiful deck. The art work is amazing and the book is a very nice read. I looked at a lot of decks online and was drawn to this one. I will enjoy working with this!

The New Palladini deck was recommended to me by a fellow working at our local new age store--he said it was their hottest seller and his personal favorite. While my personal favorites remain the Cosmic Tribe and Thoth decks, I still have to say that the Palladini deck is in a class of its own. I don't believe I've ever seen richer, deeper colors in any deck. So many decks, like the Rider-Waite, have very washed out pale colors in comparison. Additionally, there is a great uniformity and cohesion in these cards which makes them work well together in creating a holistic, alternate world. Despite the artistic uniformity of the deck, there is no sense of repetition or redundancy.The symbolism is traditional yet fresh, very intuitive and easy to grasp. This is truly THE ideal deck for beginners--I really wish it had been my first deck. It has such a positive energy, and a simplicity that doesn't seem simple. My two favorite decks above, I've noticed, are intimidating to some people. The New Palladini deck seems to have much wider appeal. If you love Tarot decks, there is little chance this deck will disappoint you.

I've been reading tarot for thirteen years and have had many decks of all sorts. At first, the booklets and actual books that come with them really matter - you need them to make sense, be readable, and be somewhat in accord with your worldview. But these days I find that I do not need any books anymore, as I have developed my own opinions on the proper meanings of the cards. This deck, which I recently acquired, already means more to me than any other I've ever had. The art is sufficiently vivid and striking, and neither depressingly shadowy nor watercolourish and sappily cute. It is perfect, and the fact that the booklet and book are judgmental, unpleasant, and totally useless means nothing. I assert the cards! And I mercifully got rid of the books before the meanings stuck to me.

This is my first tarot deck as I have always been wanting to own one for a long time. I am confident to say that the revelations shown by these cards give good indication of forthcoming occurences and answers to questions that I seek. The cards are well designed with elaborate symbolism that give deeper answers to the questions put forth. One need not really be skilled in tarot to gain benefit from these cards. Using the provided introductory book as a guide with one of the suggested spreads, one can get a general idea of transpiring events by relating the cards (keywords) to the situation. All in all, these cards have given me good insight and I am very happy to have made this purchase.PS: The deck comes boxed in a decorated cardboard case (refer to picture above) along with a book that explains the basics of tarot and the intepretation of each card.

Well I think you must have an older version...I have a very good Modern version filled with Meditative Qualities i find in very few decks...ie; the use of past crystal symbols and rounded forms for future...and where they are located in each image is of profound meditative qualtiy...really helps in symbolism of the readings. I love the graphic nature of the deck I have...Geometric as if Pythagorus had his hand in it...but I fear the deck you have displayed here is not of the same year. I got my deck at the Theosophical Society in Wheaton IL 1977; have as my deck. sigh.

I've been on the hunt for a tarot deck that is traditional, yet more artistic to my modern sensibilities, with a corresponding book that will also give a nice combination of traditional and more modern, or fluid meaning. Palladini has a good synthesis of the two, and, most importantly, feels good. (Seeing as how tarot is such a very intuitive thing.)
