Tarot of the Abyss

I love everything about this deck. The illustrations feel personal and potent, yet carry a sense of timelessness and worldly sage wisdom about them (the choice of b&w perhaps aid this). The cards are the same size as standard RWT and a pleasure to manage as they are great stock, less waxy than standard RWT, and shuffle beautifully. The book is excellent. No illustrations inside but they aren't necessary; I far prefer the additional insight and detail that is provided, which is as unique and meaningful as the illustrations, expanding and elevating my seasoned tarot knowledge. The box is also lovely - solid and sturdy and not one you want to discard. A true labour of love from Ana Tourian, and you can feel it. A very special tarot deck, and one of the best I've ever used.

Very happy with this deck, the author put a lot of thought in to the artwork, good quality and easy to shuffle

I had a smaller version of these cards and loved the artwork so much, I decided to buy the full size cards. I’m so pleased I did, as the card stock is good quality and feels lovely to shuffle. There are two extra cards in this deck - one is another 3 swords, with an alternative meaning and the other is the 10 swords, again with an alternative meaning. The Deck comes in a sturdy box with an accompanying booklet, which is also of good quality and detailed descriptions of the cards.

One of my favourite tarot desks. Nice to shuffle too. Feels nice in the hand.

What a great deck x took a while getting used to the cream and white but omg the detail in these drawings is amazing x what a great job x almost don’t want to use them x just want to save them xx card stock is what you would expect and book is small but good enough xx definitely a good buy

Another of my favourite decks. The art work is outstanding, the cards are easy to hold and shuffle with foot quality card stock. I love the addition of the extra cards which adds as deeper meaning to any reading.

The Author has a very authentic and knowledgable feel and air to her writing. She explains certain things so well and has an approach and an introduction to the cards that I haven’t ever heard before! The alternative carts provided are well thought out and I appreciate the versatility they afford me in terms of interpreting them. Lovely!

I put these in my basket a number of times before I actually bought them as I wasn’t sure. When they arrived, I still wasn’t sure - a bit underwhelmed if I’m honest - until I started handling them and reading the book. By the time I came to try a reading, I was in love. These are amazing in a way I can’t put my finger on. If you’re doubting, but feel called to these cards, my recommendation is to buy them. They are wonderful.

É o tarot mais lindo que eu já tive. As ilustrações são incríveis. Pura arte. Eu estou apaixonada. As cartas deslizam bem. A leitura fica muito rica pela interpretação da artista dos arcanos. Só mudaria a gramatura do papel pra mais grossa. No geral estou encantada. Vou passar bastante tempo admirando as ilustrações.

Intriguée par ce tarot lors de review sur YT je suis bluffée par les dessins d une précision et d un mystère fabuleux. Les expressions des visages sont intenses et très intuitives. Il faut noter qu'il y a 2 versions du 10 et 3 d épées, version traditionnelle et version en numérologie. Les explications du livret en anglais apportent une nouvelle dimension dans l interprétation du tarot qui m'a particulièrement surprise et amène une nouvelle perspective à mes lectures. Je vais essayer des combos, avec entres autres l' oracle de la dame de l' ombre, et lenormand reflet de lune de Célia meslesville. Ce tarot est vraiment très intéressant. Concernant les cartes, elles sont plutôt de bonnes qualités sans plus. Tranche neutre. Taille tarot. Coffret très joli, bref je suis conquise par ce tarot au tarif très intéressant vu la qualité du contenu du livret et des magnifiques dessins d ana tourian

For anyone looking for a tarot deck giving that extra expression in the artwork, this is the deck for you. Starting with a good sturdy box, explanatory guide book, good sized cards and decent card stock, we move onto the general vibe of the cards. Personally, I love the Lovers...trees with their branches & roots entwined in a natural embrace, the alternate three of swords and the ten of swords giving another interpretation on the RWS decks. I'm leaving both versions of these in the deck to give more demention to readings. You can have all the bright colours and gilding you like in a deck but if the artwork is static then it's no help at all. With the Abyss deck, it may be black & white but Ana Tourian's talent with ink and flow gives new inspiration. It's a beautiful addition to my ever growing collection.

El Tarot of the Abyss combina un arte visual poderoso con un enfoque introspectivo y bien fundamentado. La simbología, aunque inspirada en el sistema Rider-Waite-Smith, aporta matices propios que enriquecen cada carta. El libro guía es completo, con interpretaciones cuidadas tanto para posiciones rectas como invertidas, y es útil para todo nivel de lector. Ideal para quienes buscan lecturas profundas sin perder claridad visual

コレクターの多くが紹介していたデッキなので、価格が手頃なこともあり購入しました。品質については驚きの連続。ライダー版に即してはいますが、作者Ana Tourianの各々のアートワークとその解釈の力強さは素晴らしいです。多分とても丁寧なリーディングをされるアーティストなのでしょう。
