Product Description: Every card in The Secret Tarots has its own soul and a voice that whispers forgotten things to the hearts of all who will listen. With images reminiscent of everything from Lord Byron to Mad Max, the ancient archetypes are dressed in new clothes. These cards represent the journey along an esoteric path leading to the understanding of secrets from the past, present, and future.

Anyone who's read tarot for a while will have figured out this really obvious statement: good decks have personalities, and not all decks work with the reader. When I read for others, my 'default' deck is Hanson-Roberts--it looks like a fairy tale picture book, and gives very warm and positive readings. Insightful, but nice, like your gramma.
However, when I need something to cut through all the nonsense (which is a major problem when reading for oneself, isn't it?) this is the deck ... Read More

I haven't had this deck for too long but I already love it. Its dark images appealed to me from the first moment I saw them and I couldn't help myself. I just had to have them.
Some people complain about Lo Scarabeo's borders (with the card name translations, etc.) but I don't find them annoying or obtrusive in the least. The wonderful images of the cards overwhelm them and I don't even notice the borders, nor do I think that they cut down the image size by very much at all.

One of the first Lo Scarabeo modern tarots in 1997 that featured a little white book with a storyline. This is an imaginary landscape, the Land of Secrets. The journey of a young soul that might be called a Fool that meets a Magician...and after his journey through 22 scenes of the majors, he returns to the Magician, a changed soul. In this minors in each kingdom or sui, we have a story told from the King down to the Ace.
While I've reviewed this beautiful tarot on [...], I left out the ... Read More

The reader is introduced into a different universe via the "story" the artist created to go with the card art. I think this is a really cool idea, and although the artist's story plot is the archetypal fool's journey, it is told in a unique way.
As with all Lo Scarabeo decks, the art is lovely. My biggest complaint about this - and all other Lo Scarabeo decks, for that matter - are the card borders. I understand that Lo Scarabeo is an Italian company; so it makes sense an Italian translation ... Read More

This is a very beautiful, acurate deck. Using the card meanings found in the included booklet, this deck is deadly accurate. So much so that I work with it almost exclusivly these days, although it's naturally wise to have another deck to fall back on. In fact, a few friends and myself were using them to 'cheat' at a basketball game, and they were accurate every time.
The artwork is just fabulous, too. Just goin' through the deck without doing a reading is fun just to look at the beauty of the ... Read More
