Thank you Simon, for sharing this deck because i wouldn't have gotten a chance to see all the cards in this otherwise. I think it's my absolute favourite deck in the world 😍⭐✨
Absolutely stunning. These just caught my eye as I was browsing on Amazon, I had a look at the images and was just blown away. Soo glad you did this walkthrough Simon, I am definitely going to buy them they are just soo beautiful. Love everything about them. Cheers
Such a beautiful Deck I’m going to gift this to myself for my birthday this year. The art work is glorious and I love how it it is neither RWS or Marseilles. It really is like leaves of illuminated manuscripts. Love your openness to working in an eclectic way that works for you. I think this will open me to many layers of meaning. Also the Ruffle shuffle sounds like a dance 💃 🕺 I want to learn 😃 thank you Simon for sharing I appreciate it 🥰much love and light 🙏
Wow. That's a beautiful deck. The colors are so rich, the drawings are so detailed, it's just gorgeous. I don't know much about the Tree of Life either but it's one of my goals. This deck is certainly an upgrade for that purpose. $46 is nothing to sneeze at but I've spent considerably more than that for OOP's and this is much easier to get hold of than they were. Good score, Simon.
as someone who has spent a significant amount on rare and OOP decks, I no longer do this... Many of the rare and OOP decks are now on the mainstream market in cheaper versions but still readily available for much less. all those supposed one-off kickstarter projects are a fine example of this. I bought Splendor Solis as a rare deck version and later the large companion book also. now they are widely available in a lesser quality, but much cheaper.
Gorgeous deck. I was a bit shocked by the figure in the IX 'Hermit' card at first, until i remembered reading that alchemy isn't really about people or stories - it's all a representation of the chemistry if you like. A dead 'person' is used to represent a substance that is exhausted for example, or that the life force has left behind. Kings are metals or gold. And the transformation processes again represent personal and psychological growth. I'm not at all a Kabbalah expert either but I have read often that things are taken to symbolise other things, and it gets more and more layered as you move forward, so that you end up not with a 'truth' so much as an endlessly varied experience that is wholly Divine.... ☺️ And nearly anything can symbolise anything else, certainly if your heart feels it that way. Thanks for sharing Simon! 💐
What a beautiful deck!😍 I've always liked the medieval depiction of the Sun, reminds me a bit of 1JJ Swiss, and like you say the Bastard deck Thanks for sharing👍
Absolutely an amazing deck fantastic art especially from the threes to the pages.Such stories I would really like to get it read the book and challenge myself as I think I will really enjoy it.Thanks for the review.Big🤗and a 🌈
It would be hilarious to track the time stamps in your videos that correspond with me hitting “add to cart.” 😄 This one might hold the record for fastest. Thanks for introducing this to us, Simon.
Gorgeous deck! The Sun's face also reminds me of The Oracle of the Radiant Sun deck. But I think it doesn't follow the regular Tarot interpretation, the numbers do not correspond to the Tarot as we know hence the LWB is so thick. It's something new to learn to be utilized in any card readings further. It may be similar to how Dreams of Gaia was designed as yet another type of Tarot with its own interpretation created by the very author.
Simon this is the only deck I’ve ever returned to Amazon because I didn’t like it. 😂 No bs! It was a few years ago.. I’m going to rewatch with an open mind
@@the_hermits_cave I think it was the art work. The borders were huge.. I understood that they aren’t actually borders and more a part of the original art but still didn’t like them. I may not have been ready for them.
I just received this deck today after I got home from work 😊 It is even more brilliant and richly colored in person!❤ There is so much to see in each card @hermitscave How are you getting along with it since this video?,
Oh Simon, I absolutely love this deck. It shrieks quality. Reminds me of illuminated letters. Beautiful. Thank you so much.
You’re welcome 😍

I don’t think I’ve ever seen such beautiful rich colours in a deck before 😍

Very pretty cards -- many of them look like tapestries. Thank you for sharing, Simon.
Yes, they do!

Exquisite description Simon... thank you.
Your reviews are great and really helpful, this is going on my wish list along with the robert place marseille deck 😀
Thank you! 🙏🏼❤️
💜🌷thank you, Simon, much love your way.🌻🌷
this one is gorgeous!!!!
I had purchased this deck in January of 2020. I like it very much! I am a student of Alchemy.
It would be hilarious to track the time stamps in your videos that correspond with me hitting “add to cart.” 😄 This one might hold the record for fastest. Thanks for introducing this to us, Simon.
Ha! That’s would be funny. In this instance you’ve made an excellent choice 😍

I did say at the time that this is the kind of deck I would end up hating but then rebuying 😂😜
Really?? Because of the system it follows?

It’s a lovely deck but I think the busy borders would annoy me!
I just received this deck today after I got home from work 😊
It is even more brilliant and richly colored in person!❤
There is so much to see in each card
@hermitscave
How are you getting along with it since this video?,
