This Might Hurt Tarot Deck

Contemporary and inclusive

After years of using a Neo-Pagan influenced tarot deck, I had become dissatisfied with its exclusively Anglo-Saxon personages and dated swords-and-sorcery situations. This deck was a solid step forward; it features a wider range of ethnicities and interprets the Rider/Waite scenarios in a more contemporary look. Cups often hold hoffee, swords are often knives found in a kitchen drawer or back-alley fracas. Personages are often ordinary-looking figures who could be relatives or people you might meet at a party. I'm pleased that the court cards are often ambiguous or nonbinary in gender, While maintaining the old significances of the cards, this deck gives its significance a welcome relevance to ordinary lives. Only one minor shortcoming: the cards are on exceptionally stiff cardstock, which makes them lovely to look at, but extremely difficult to shuffle prior to a reading. I manage by shuffling half a deck at a time and interleaving the two halves.

Great deck, easy to shuffle straight out of the box which is huge un my opinion. Beautiful artwork as well.

Amazing artwork; clear and complete for readings. The packaging is also wonderful. Great quality overall. Well done!
