*UPDATE* 10/10/2020 Schiffer has re-issued this deck with the correct spelling on the Emperor card and they sent me a replacement free of charge! Thank you Schiffer for the amazing customer support! Just a quick note: this was a pre-order copy and does contain a typo on the Emperor card - however Schiffer (Red Feather) is correcting this and if you received a copy with the typo you can contact their support, if you would like, to receive a replacement.
They sent me a new copy too! I love this deck and feel the same about the guidebook. I like the matt card stock, but I'm having to cut the deck in half to riffle shuffle because its so long and I haven't learned to side riffle!
I received the deck this afternoon, amazing! Beautiful images, great card stock, matt card and borderless, I love it. And very great guidebook, everything can learn from the book, very good quality tarot set! Great job!
Aside from it's tiny issues.....misspelling of the Emperor card and the fact that my cards were bowed right out of the box, I love this deck. I was so happy when the creator decided to reissue with larger art work. I consider this creator brilliant. Her knowledge of the tarot and esoteric magic is amazing and her book is one I go to often. It is a treasure in my collection. I hope she does another deck someday!
Mine bowed slightly but after I put them under a heavy book for a day they were fine. Also Schiffer (Red Feather) is correcting the typo and sending replacements if you would like one, just contact their support. I agree the larger artwork is amazing, and I would LOVE to see more from her in the future! Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@ModernMetaphysicae I contacted them last week. I was told they do not know when they are reprinting and don't know when any would be available to replace. So...it seems it depends on who responds to you. I was told my information would be on "file".....
I just ordered this edition! I have the first edition that I modified (wishing I hadn't) i am just being excited. The 6 of cups and the hermit are my favorite cards. Thanks for doing this video!
Wow ! Love the detail in the images. Thank you for sharing. I didn't think i needed more decks but i was wrong. I also have the first copy and didn't resonate with it so i am really happy about this second edition. Bye the way, Love your rings ! They really suit you ! Stay Safe and many Blessings !
Waiting for this deck to be released in the UK. A Golden Dawn RWS/Thoth hybrid but a really nice one. The Golden Dawn underpins both RWS and Thoth and that is what is most obvious in this deck. I'm not a member of the matte cardstock fanclub; laminated cardstock lasts longer. I don't riffle shuffle so hopefully the cards will last.
I actually find laminated stocks last shorter with me because once it starts to peel away its just game over, theres no salvaging it. I riffle shuffle all my decks though. :)
Thank you , I have the first addition, but it had those huge borders on it . I trimmed it , but I would love to get the second addition , its so gorgeous .
Those boarders are exactly why I didnt get the first edtion, and the glossy cardstock! They did such a great job with this edition! Thanks for watching Pamela!
Thank you so much for this review! I do wish that every tarot book was this spot on. So frustrating when you get a beautiful book with gorgeous images and then cookie cutter tarot meanings and not one blurb on the actual image and any explanation of what is going on with the image and the corresponding tarot suit. I have pre ordered this from amazon and says will be available 9/15/2020.
You are so welcome! I totally agree about the book! I adore this book. I do know that the delay is likely due to the typo they had to correct that you see in my version of the deck! I hope you love it!
I’ve been waiting for your review of this one. It’s so beautiful and I agree that book is fantastic. There’s so much in these cards to dive into and extract meaning from. I just wish my hands were bigger 😂
Curious about the white mountain tops that line that backs of the cards along with the small stars.. On Amazon the card backs appear different: no mountain tip-tops, or smaller stars. Anyone know anything about that? I love the backs of the cards with the extras, but wonder why we don’t see those little extras on Amazon ?
The backs shown on Amazon appear to be the First Edition backs, not sure if they have swapped them back or not. Its likely a leftover artifact from the early marketing materials they sent out, and just was never updated. Hope that helps. :)
Thank you so much for clearing up the paper used! Magazine paper is one of my PET PEEVES in books and when I see them printed in color, I feel so so sad because I just assume it's gonna be glossy and gross. I'm surprised by how beautiful I find this deck even though I /hate/ typos + some of the perspective feels weird to me.
Hi Dustin, great review. Thanks for sharing. I have the first edition but never used it due to the not great card stock. I have a question - in your opinion what other mass market deck would you say this card stock is identical to. I've got the new 2nd ed Mary-el and its also matt finish, but super slippery which puts me off 😔 also - i noticed the Emperor card is spelt wrong 🤔
It's very similar to the 2nd edition Mary-el. I wouldn't describe that as slippery though, personally. There is a typo in the Emperor car, but I love stuff like that, I find it charming and a reminder that we are all human. I believe they did correct that though, and when I get another copy I can verify - it is spelled correctly in the book interestingly. Mine was a pre-order copy. Thanks for watching Conrad - I'm sure you noticed something very familiar to you in the video. ;)
@@ModernMetaphysicae yeah I did see something familiar hehe ;-) but that's not why I was watching ;-) I see Alchemy Arrow's comment now also - regarding the typo. Thanks for the advice - I will def order a copy soon.
This is such a pretty deck but I'm having some issues with a few errors. 1. Why are some of them starting with "the", eg the high priestess, but then it's just "empress" or just "fool"? That is such a strange choice... 2. The emperor is misspelled as "emporer"... 🙄 Ugh. I haven't looked further if there are more errors, but these just put me off and it's a shame, it's a pretty deck
My favorite were The Strength and The Star omg but The Hermit and The Knight of Cups too 🦁🏺🦉🗡️
I just ordered this as my first tarot deck. The imagery and abundant symbolism really called to me. I can't wait to explore it
This one has an AMAZING book!

Hi. Does that new edition has the book as well?
Thanks for the video!👍 I was god smacked by the beauty of the artwork! I placed an order for this deck. It will be a worthy addition!
Hope you enjoy it!
I have been thinking about this deck for some time, and I think it might be time to get it soon. It looks amazing! 💙
Beautiful colors! Thanks for sharing.
I own many many decks, all very beautiful and wonderful, BUT this deck is my FAVORITE. The artwork and energy is AMAZING.

Thanks for watching!
So excited to see the 2nd edition even with the typo. I am waiting to get mine from Schiffer hopefully soon. So glad I never got the 1st edition.
Ya, they are doing such a great job with their new releases lately, even with the typo that they are doing a great job of addressing.
I am so impressed with this deck! The book too right!? I find this deck speaks to me like no other!
The book is amazing!

I love this deck. This is my deck for the month of June. Nice review! (ps I love the typo on the Emperor)
Me too! Thank you! I too love little oopsies like that 🤓
I’ve been waiting for your review of this one. It’s so beautiful and I agree that book is fantastic. There’s so much in these cards to dive into and extract meaning from. I just wish my hands were bigger 😂
It is chunky for sure! I can JUST riffle shuffle it, so if you dont have gorilla hands like me you will just have to over hand it.
I've just pre-ordered this deck (comes out in the UK next week), it's so beautiful! I can't wait to have it in my hands! Thank you for this review
Hope you enjoy it!
"The Emperor" card is spelled incorrectly. Notice the mistake at the 8:38 mark where it is spelled "Emporer!"
Yep they corrected it and issued replacements to everyone. Details in the pinned comment :)
I'm here for your gorgeous Metatron ring! 😊 And also the walkthrough. I noticed a LOT of Native American imagery resonating as well!
Awesome! Thank you!

Anyone know if the emperor card been corrected yet?
It was corrected immediately. See the pinned post. :)
I like everything but the rainbows and the crazy let's say different colors I love everything about it,but that
Sold!

The emperor typo has been fixed and they sent free decks to everyone as mentioned in the pinned comment. :)
lol HOW did it get out of QC with the Emperor spelled that way. Oopsies...
It happens 😂 ooopsie indeed they seem pretty on top of getting it fixed though
Just keeping it real
💝
I am planning to get this version... the 1st destroyed the deck...
For me, artwork reminds me of the 70’s. Also, it looks like a glammed up thoth deck 🤷🏻♀️
It is not very Tothy in all actuallity and really is its own thing. The artwork is very lovely and is from 2016 if I remember. :)
