The Wild Unknown Tarot Deck and Guidebook (Official Keepsake Box Set): A Beautiful Introduction to Tarot. Perfect for Gifting

So pleased I bought this deck, it is stunning, and whilst I know everyone has different decks that work best for them, this is definitely mine, intuitive and such a joy to work with. If you are very new to tarot it's worth noting that this is strictly speaking not a 'traditional deck' (which I actually like it even more for) and the beautiful, naturally inspired, evocative artwork, is 'pared down' imagery wise and so doesn't give the new reader as many visual clues as say, the Rider Waite deck. Again though, I have to say this only makes me love it more, its like reading cards through a dream and makes it even more possible to connect with that side of yourself. The 'guidebook' is beautifully put together too, with descriptions done in a very sympathetic way to the cards themselves, ie pared down, evocative and dreamlike. So, again, if you need/want a wider, more 'in depth' and comprehensive understanding of the cards, read around to increase your knowledge whilst this deck helps you tap into and hone your own intuition and interpretation. I am a collector of decks (moon garden, ancient egyptian, Japanese, herb, everyday, wooden and even kawaii!) but this deck is my go too and my favourite of them all.

The same size as the Rider Deck of Cards, and as easy to shuffle. I have never felt drawn to the Rider Deck of Cards, although I have used the deck for many years. I finally decided to try out another deck. I love the Wild Unknown Deck of Cards. The drawings are beautiful and very simple to interpret. The box is beautifully made and very sturdy. I think it will last for years. I feel the same about the quality of the deck of cards. Beautifully made and extremely good quality. As I began to draw my first card, I felt immediately at home with the deck. It was a lovely, very reassuring feeling. Thank you for making this beautiful deck of cards.

I'm a complete novice when it comes to Tarot, and I ordered this deck along with the classic Rider Waite deck. I just received this deck this morning, almost two weeks ahead of the estimated time of delivery, so I'm very happy with that. The deck itself is breathtaking! The artwork is so beautiful, but for some reason, as soon as I started looking through the cards, I just started feeling so sad, that I almost started crying. I do know my intuition is strong, that's why I want to look into Tarot, but this is a very interesting feeling. I don't know if it's the artwork, the vibe of the cards, or whatever, but I just feel this strong sense of pain when I look at them. Hopefully this feeling will pass once I start using them, because I'm absoliutely in love with them. It also comes with the guide book which is amazing for a novice like me. The boxes, the packaging, the quality, the artwork, everything is exquisite, and I highly recommend it to anyone.

To start off, the artwork on these cards is beautiful, and that's what originally attracted me to this deck. The guide book is really lovely as well, it has images of every card along with their meanings and description. It also has a few different spreads. The card quality is good. They are not the thickest cardstock but they aren't super flimsy like a lot of decks. Due to the cardstock and size of the cards they are probably my favourite deck to shuffle. I'd say they are semi-matte, they don't have that annoying shine that glossy cards have. Although it is quite a 'mainstream' widely produced deck I would say it is not the ideal deck for beginners as the images don't nod towards the Waite-Smith cards at all. That being said, it is important to feel connected to the imagery and art style and I think that's what makes this such a great deck.

This has to be one of the most beautiful decks I’ve seen. The illustrations are gorgeous, very imaginative and original, sort of quirky which I love. They are mainly black and white with vivid splashes of colour on some of them, the back is covered in a pattern which reminds me of snakeskin. I’m so looking forward to reading them. The accompanying book is good, I love the way it’s written, easy to understand if you’re new to tarot but offering a different approach if you’ve done lots of readings. I saw these being used on an instagram page and I’m so glad I searched them out. Just looking for Prisma Visions now!

I do not know what has gone wrong with the Mass Production of this fantastic independent tarot deck with a massive following. I did not know of The Wild Unknown when it was first produced, I saw YouTube videos raving over the lush deck when the 2nd Edition hit the fan base. At that time I wasn't a tarot user, so just followed the online hum of activity that was The Wild Unknown gathering popularity. I joined a tarot course to learn the art of reading intuitively a few months ago. I bought a tarot deck which I was happy intuitively about. Then I saw The Mary-el tarot reviewed on YouTube, ummed and ahh-ed over that one, finally purchasing that deck too. I thought two decks were plenty for a novice tarotist, then I looked on the internet again. The Wild Unknown began calling me again. Reviewed by dozens of fans, the 2nd Edition needed a home. Along came the mass produced deck that was Edition 3, deck and guidebook complete in a stunning box. At a great price too...I ummed and ahh-ed for too long, the pre order price came and went. The deck went out of stock, so I looked on the marketplace. Found a great deal, near the same as the pre order price....I ordered two...the email came telling me the decks were on their way, my money had been taken...waiting with growing excitement.....Christmas present sorted....then received an email a couple of days afterwards saying unfortunately the dispatch email was wrong. The decks were not on their merry way to my door..I got a refund, then I saw a comment on another Amazon review talking about a little website in the UK, still selling the out of circulation 2nd Edition. So I knew it would cost a lot more, but the quality is far superior....I received two copies of the deck and 2 guide books in a week of ordering....I am very happy now...and the Christmas presents will be gratefully received. One star goes to Amazon itself for refunding me the whole amount and even giving me the voucher back on my account. Thank you Amazon, but in relation to the 3rd Edition mass production of the Wild Unknown....do not even bother ordering it. May 2017 Well I thought I would catch up with an extra bite to my review. Today I received the 3rd Edition Tarot Deck and Guidebook in the post. I know I said I wouldn't get it but succumbed only because I wanted a separate deck for reading other people's spreads. Amazon Marketplace is a good way of buying the same item at a lower price. You can get them new as well as used. The box was packaged well. Bubble wrapped then a layer of corrugated cardboard firmly taped up. The cardboard was also wrapped in parcel paper and tightly held in place with tape. I will definately recommend using SWbooks to everyone. Inside the keepsake box itself, the Guidebook is wonderfully presented. I do have the original and think the newer book is better and has another three spreads to try. Now for the cards themselves......yes, I do have an issue with the card stock. Far to flimsy for tarot cards. These cards are going to get shuffled excessively.....like all the time. These cards will get damaged easily. I have the Second Edition deck and absolutely love the stunning cards, the 3rd Edition deck feels very thin. For me, I will be trimming the borders off and rounding the corners this 3rd Edition. I am not worried about wear, as I have bought this particular deck for everyday useage. It is going in my bag wherever I go. It is going to be my workhorse, my people deck...my party piece....my study deck... One other sad thing about this Edition....no extra card for its own personality.. I am changing my one star to 4 due to the packaging, the Guidebook and way my deck was secure in transit. The only let down is the card stock.

I totally recommend this deck, it has completely changed my life. It is so special, so pretty. I've never seen such a special Tarot. As soon as I held it in my hands I knew it was "special". It seems as though it's coming from the depths of another world, a magical world. If I should describe it with one single word I would actually call it "The magical deck". This Tarot deck speaks from its own heart it seems, the answers it gives are very deep, real, sensitive, each time I need a final answer to something I know it will give it to me in a way that none of my other Tarot decks would. When I use it it feels as though I'm also travelling somehow, somewhere deeps down into the depths of a magical space... The quality of the deck is very good, sturdy cards, the book is good as well, the texts are well written. She doesn't include a "reverse" meaning, there's no need to as she explains every cards in a special way. I don't use this deck reversed. Overall excellent quality! Absolutely in love!

Love it, bought it almost 10 times since 2019, listened to Kim Krans audible audiobook too and meditated to each card once more. I prefer Kim Krans over Rider

Ho acquistato questo mazzo di carte attratta dal prezzo particolarmente scontato. Immagino di aver fatto un vero affarone! La confezione è curata nei dettagli e si presenta molto bene: cellophane, copri cofanetto, cofanetto, libro, box e carte. Sono tarocchi particolari; ho colto subito il fascino delle immagini. Non immediatamente comprensibili, l' intuizione può portare fuori strada se non si è un po' esperti. Il libro allegato è grazioso, spiega quello che c' è da sapere, il resto è nelle mani della sensibilità di chi legge per avere una interpretazione veramente efficace. La grafica accattivante tra bianco-neri e colore rende originale il mazzo. Le carte sono opache e piuttosto sottili ed è molto facile mescolarle. Pensavo di tenerle nella mia collezione personale ma sarebbe un peccato non utilizzarle. Per la qualità delle carte ovviamente solo il tempo può dare il responso più giusto. A mio parere l'impressione è che non deluderanno.

Los nombres de las cartas vienen en ingles, pero se pueden encontrar traducciones por internet. No viene con lecturas al reverso o negativas, de modo que es sencillo para el momento de hacer las lecturas. Caja, manual y cartas de buena calidad. Diseño en blanco y negro con colores en diferentes cartas.

外箱の大きさに驚きました！笑 カードは、シンプルで素敵なデザインです。フェアリーなどが苦手な方にオススメです。

In den 90ern hatte ich ein Crowley Deck, keine Ahnung wo das geblieben ist, aber es war mir ohnehin zu bunt, zu opulent, zu dramatisch. Nach vielen Jahren 'ohne' sollte jetzt ein neues Deck her, und dieses hier war sozusagen Liebe auf den ersten Blick. Nach einer Woche bin ich sicher: Es ist tatsächlich genau meins. Gutes Kartenformat für meine großen Hände. Intuitiv verständliche Motive, eindrucksvoll gezeichnet. Ein Buch mit sehr angenehmer Haptik, mit kurzen, modernen, herrlich schwafelfreien Texten. Gedruckt in einer tollen Schriftart (ein gut lesbares Mittelding zwischen Schreib- und Druckschrift) und schlicht schwarz auf weiß. Stabile, schöne und praktische Boxen. Und viiiiiel Schwarz :-) Lieferung ging wie gewohnt ratz-fatz und die Amazon-Zusteller sind durchweg maskiert und freundlich. Bei der ersten Lieferung waren nur leider der Sleeve, der Außenkarton und leider auch das Buch an einer Ecke stark eingedrückt. Nach Reklamation am 30.12. wurde mir aber schon am 02.01. ein unversehrtes Set geliefert - wow! Schade nur, dass die komplett intakte Karten-Box aus der ersten Sendung vermutlich auch weggeschmissen wird...
