Gaia Oracle Cards by Toni Carmine Salerno

, 27 Mar 2021

Great quality deck overall: good sturdy packaging box, excellent printing quality, wonderfully edited guidebook and good quality deck. The cards have the  perfect thickness and coating, which makes shuffling a very pleasurable experience.

The artwork is beautiful. I especially like the back of the cards, which is also the cover of the booklet. Some of the images in the deck are just wonderful. Taken individually all the images are great and a piece of art. However, as a tarot ensemble, the deck feels monotonous and, for the most part, uninspired.

This is a Gaian deck, so I expected the feminine energies and the female characters to be relevant, but they're overwhelmingly dominant. The same can be seen of the green hues.

One of the things that put me off is the fact that  many of the images on the deck and the meaning attributed to them have no relation or connection, which is a total disappointment.

I ended returning the deck, not only because of what I said, but because of the odd sizing of the cards, which are on the wide and large size, as I was having trouble shuffling them.
