The Canon's read
Tarot Canon's own assessment, written for this catalog.
Angel Tarot Cards keeps a Rider-Waite-Smith skeleton underneath but dresses it for a different shelf. The cards run large, about three and a half by five inches, on stock that is thick, glossy, and slippery rather than matte, which puts it closer to an oracle deck in the hand even while the structure stays recognizably tarot underneath. Angels supply the imagery throughout, and the scale suggests a deck meant to be looked at as much as shuffled, propped upright or laid out for a single dramatic card rather than fanned quickly across a table.
It suits beginners who want angel imagery without learning oracle logic from scratch, since the Rider-Waite-Smith bones are there to lean on whenever the pictures alone are not enough. Readers who prize a deck that shuffles easily and rides light in the hand should expect the glossy, oversized stock to fight them at every riffle.
