The Lost Tarot of Nostradamus Kit Paperback – October 4, 2016

This kit was exactly what I expected and then some. The box in which the cards and book are contained is extremely sturdy and aesthetically pleasing. The cards themselves are beautiful and full of esoteric symbolism. The book is thorough and informative. It is very well written and the quality matches everything else in this kit. It is going to be both challenging and rewarding to work with this deck. The card stock is very sturdy. The only negative I have about this deck is that the card stock is a bit too sturdy. There is absolutely no flexibility in them whatsoever. It's going to take a lot of handling to break them in. I would not recommend this deck to anyone who is just starting out with Tarot but those who are seasoned practitioners or simply those who are collectors, this is a must have for your collection.

It's a very rare gem to find among all other tarot decks. I'm so grateful that I find this special deck. I love the depth of each card's interpretation, the history behind the symbol and how each historic or mythical figure tied into the interpretation of each card. The design is very unique, so many ancient symbol, and knowledges are being coded within the designs. I noticed some of the reviews were focused on the print, the uneven degree of shades. That's why I was a bit hesitant before I purchased the deck. However, after I got the deck, after a closer look into the whole deck of cards, it is only obvious to me that those various shades of prints are there for a reason. There are four suits of cards (besides of the major ones), and each suit was assigned a main tone and colors of design, that's why the color shades are different. I think that's the merit of the deck, instead of viewing it defects.

The validity of the being THE lost Nostradamus Tarot is not a cause for me purchasing this deck. I do study Nostradamus as I have the complete works. I bought this simply for the beauty of the cards.Materialistically, it's very well produced. The cards are a bit firm still and hard to shuffle at the moment. But I shuffle as a stress relief so I'm sure they'll gain some flexibility in time.The interpretations stray quite a bit from traditional tarot and I really like them! I like decks that don't follow the Rider Waite procedure of interpretation. Intuitive reads are a bit difficult unless you are very, very familiar with Nostradamus' work and the history of our world, art religious/spiritual practices and society of his time.I highly suggest you give this deck a try. Even if you only have it for its beauty, it is worth the small fee for such elegance!

Quality card stock,beautiful print,excellent packaging. Gonna take a minute to figure out the card meanings though and work them into my readings. Probably not suited for beginners.

Wow!The best cards ever!I mean really for the price I paid I wasn't expecting much but wow!After taking the time to read the very informative book it comes with and utilizing the cards this deck is amazing!I think this deck was way under priced; the cards are made very well they aren't flimsy but not hard and don't stick together. This by far is my favorite deck right up there with the Thoth deck. This deck is very impressive especially for the price I mean really? Its definitely under priced for the massive knowledge within the book it comes and the cards are very nice as well. I say grab these cards now for the very generous price that they are now before the price goes up on these.

I love this deck and the use of Nostradamus artwork and quatrains, this deck is excellent for a super detailed reading... I wish the cards were a little thicker... And am puzzled by the fortitude card in which they describe a horse, but depict a cow! It's my favorite card, I feel it was on purpose somehow... I like it because I am Taurus whose last name means horse and I have fortitude! Ha! It's a good deck, I highly recommend! Especially if you are looking for something that expands on the rider waite archetypes...

I collect tarot cards but I buy only decks that speak to me personally. As soon as I came across this deck I wanted it. A lot. For less than $10 the price was too good to pass up. This deck does not disappoint. Gorgeous! The imagery is as wonderful as I had hoped, the book is amazing (it's as large as a nice trade paperback), it has wonderful commentary, history, and interpretations. The box is as beautiful as any I've seen and the deck.....a beautiful, beautiful deck.

I would like to start by saying that I appreciate the work and research that had to go into the making of this deck. The art is interesting and for those that enjoy word salad, Nostradamus's quartrains are there for the reading in the accompanying book.That having been said, you should know these things before you buy this set. The cards are oversized,making them hard to deal with and they are on a heavy, heavy card stock resembling light weight cardboard. They are thick and inflexible. The symbolism is obscure as well.As a tarot deck collector, I donot regret having this deck. It is interesting and a good challenge for someone that is not a new card reader.I wished these decks came with recommended skill levels for readers. Tarot readings should flow, not be a struggle.
