My review of an unusual tarot deck called The Modern-Medieval Tarot by Shayn Amber Wetherell & Tim Wetherell pub. A.G.Muller 2006. Intriguing fantasy tableaus are expressed in a swirl of colours. The deck is undeniably modern, created using a combination of photographs and digital collage, yet the style is not only medieval but gothic & romantic.

I think Rana George Lenormand is incredible. Definitely one of my favourite lenormand decks.
Totally agree Mascha, it really is quite unique ☺
Awesome 👏I just got the Hermetic Tarot from US Games. The Backs of the Cards on the first Deck are so Beautiful. That Arabian Nights looking one is as well❤Have a good day Luv
Sounds so interesting. Thank you for the review
Thank you for laying out the history behind this deck. I just got it and am new to tarot.
Just seen this video even if its a year ago i own the deck also .❤
thank you
Thank you for your inspiring reviews. I watching your previous videos because I think you have so many great book recommendations. I myself am reading The Circuit of Force by Dion Fortune. I haven't read Sane Occultism In Daily Life, but it will probably be a future purchase for me. Likewise regarding Zeletor. It would be nice to see your bookshelf and all your books. How do you manage to read all these books? I love reading esoteric books, but since I both work and practice magic, it's hard for me to read as much as I want. Then I also think about how you can remember everyone so well. Do you have a system where you write down what you think of the books you read? It would be interesting to know about.
thank you!!
You're welcome!
Oh just what I was looking for. Thank-you Jules. I have been recommended Ben Dova and Jodorowsky but wow... the debates. Thanks again! 🙌 ❤
I never knew this about Yeats. Very interesting.
Good review and yes the cards are great with a nice box and guide book. A lot of decks come in the standard flip box with the standard small book.
Thank you for sharing your insights with us. Blessings and love to you. 🙏🏽❤
Absolutely fascinating, thank you, I've not heard of this deck although I am a massive follower of H P Lovecraft, the only related deck I own is the Dark Grimoire Tarot. Could I ask you, although its fiction, do you think one can use the mythos etc as a genuine magickal practice, my opinion on that is yes, I am just intrigued as to your opinion, thank you once again.
Yes, there is a playlist on my channel called Lovecraftian Tarot & Magick that has a video about a Lovecraft magick book recommendation.
I've been looking for a book to read up on the Golden Dawn and this video was so helpful, thanks Jules💖
Glad it was helpful!
I have this deck and have for some time, I absolutely love it, I'm very fond of the lovecraftian stories. Thank you for your excellent review and presentation.
Glad you enjoy it!
@@PandoraPortal333 I really did enjoy, I love the way you present, I'm a new subscriber and will definitely be a regular to your channel.
Glad to find your video. I also bought a Spanish version because it was the only way to get it. My Spanish is not the best, so i am so happy to learn that a republishing will occur. Thank you for sharing!❤
Thank you 🧡
I love you so much ❤❤❤ thanks for recommending
Your videos have helped me on my kabbalah journey.
Glad I could help
@@PandoraPortal333 I purchased the ladder of lights and also kabbalah unveiled based off your book recommendations. What do you think about John Michael greers path of wisdom, have you read it?
Have not read Paths of Wisdom but John Michael Greer is an experienced author.
I love the first edition Jules, it has matte card stock which I love better then the glossy card stock. Thank you for sharing 💖
I totally agree!
Wow, The Empress is gorgeous!
ty , Blessed Be )O(
This looks like a beautiful deck. Thank you so much for sharing it with us! I love your channel!
Glad you enjoy it!
I just got it today and I'm impressed with the print being large too that's a big plus ..I enjoy your reviews 🎉
I'm excited about this book if I had a choice to only have two books it would be the 6th or 7th edition GD Brick and the green brick
Glad you enjoy it!
I have the hard copy coming tomorrow I have had it on pdf but nothing beats a book

There is a playlist on my channel called Tarot & Thoth Books which has a video titled Tarot Books General & Beginners
Brilliant many thanks
You're absolutely right the Golden Dawn book is not accessible in fact it's not even user-friendly it's vague I'm going to have to get this book here because I hear the same good review
Thank you for the wonderful review! I have the 1st ed of The Shining Tribe Tarot & can’t help but wish I would have waited & purchased this edition. Appreciate your videos!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much, Jules! I keep learning and learning; thanks for your instruction. ☺
Happy to help!
Out of the many many astrology books, lectures,classes, astrologers that I’ve heard, read, studied, from Vedic to western astrologies, yours is the first explanation of what Pisces really is…. Aether, not worldly, not even material. Absolutely!! All I ever hear is ‘emotional’ and ‘sensitive’ and prone to addiction. This is why, well one of many reasons I guess, astrology is so put down and not taken seriously… because explanations like these are not even correct. So thank you 🙏🏾 Nisha
Your content is always so thought provoking and informative. Thank you! I’m taking a course on the Jungian approach to Tarot reading, and so far I find it a very “dry” way of reading. It can be insightful, but it feels quite intellectual to me - it could be the teacher. (Mansplainer. 😂) What do you think?
Yes, Jungian approach can be quite academic and dry. My approach with Jungianism is psycho - spiritual. There is a danger of too much cold analysis with the academic approach.
Ooh, I want one! Thank you. I am a TdM lover. I mean the deck not the book. I get so tired of these Mass market tarot books that attempt to substitute for a visit to the psychologist.
I have the black and white version of this deck and enjoy it quite a bit. There is a very good tarot reading book written by a woman named Doris Chase Doane who apparently was in the Brotherhood of Light. She was a well-known astrologer in the mid century era, I believe, and for someone who enjoys reading the cards, her hardback "Tarot Card Spread Reader" and her paperback "How to Read Tarot Cards" cover the astrological associations of the cards with an emphasis on predictive reading. I just wanted to point that out for anyone who might be interested in this deck.
Hi Jules, do you think it is worth having both Golden Dawn Magic and A Garden of Pomegranate's or do they overlap? I am just wondering
These two books are different in scope so there is very little overlap. Golden Dawn Magic is about the GD system of magic for beginners while Garden of Pomegranates is about GD Hermetic Qabalah pathwork.
@@PandoraPortal333 Thank you
I just wanted to say thank you for your recommendations. I am only now watching them, but I find them very useful in navigating my studies.
I like that moon chart ❤️🐝❤️
Thank you for reminding me that I have this deck! This will pair and work well with another deck I've been meaning to use more often, and The Lovers' Tarot will see the light of day again :)
No clue how I missed this deck 😮. Thanks, Jules!
You’re welcome 😊
awesome 👍
This is my favorite deck, but the old Belgian version has much better paper than the current Italian deck. It's true that this new edition has slightly better sharpness and stronger coloring, but the paper is so bad that it peels off after a few days of use. In 2011, they even started printing the deck in China, and it was superior to the two previously mentioned, because the paper was resistant... maybe the one you're showing is Chinese, but they made the mistake of switching to Italy sometime in the last decade. Luckily, I still have two sealed boxes...one Belgian and one Chinese.
The deck shown in my video was printed in China.
Are you still enjoying the deck? Any insights or issues? Cheers!
Of course, was thinking recently about how great these images are , because they are so original and I love the colour intensity 😊
I recently got this deck. Just in terms of visuals, this is an atypical pick for me. However , there’s a lot of purpose and meaning behind Janet’s work and I’m looking forward to diving in and already sense a connection. Thanks for the review Jules! I really enjoy your channel 🙂✨ Nisha
Marseille all the way for me .. of course..🥰! It was a nice video to enjoy on this rainy evening here in NSW. Thank you for sharing, Jules! 🙏💛
Glad you enjoyed it!
thank you
thank you
Just got this, looking forward to diving in! Thanks for the video Jules✨
Pierre Madenié Tarot de Marseille 1709 is one of my most favourite Marseille Tarots. It is SO beautiful, and truly is one (if not) of the most delicate and refined complete historic TdM decks we are so fortunate to have. Thank you for sharing this version, Jules. What a gem of a tarot!🙏💛
