The record
The Spiral Tarot was my second tarot deck. I saw a few sample images online, and fell in love with the beauty of it. One of the problems I came across in learning the Tarot was that many of the decks available have very repetitive minor arcana cards. You might as well use a regular deck of playing cards. This is not so with the Spiral Tarot. Every single card of this deck, especially the minor arcana, tells a story. These cards will speak to you. I disagree with what the first reviewer of this deck said, that the art was disappointing when it came to the minor arcana. Compare this deck to most and you will see that the artist actually took the time to artistically represent a situation to convey the meaning of the card to you. Are the minor arcana cards as detailed as the major arcana? No. But to me they speak volumes more than the majors. The colors are beautiful, the art is very well-drawn, meanings easily interpreted through the pictures. The minor arcana changes time periods in the pictures and this only adds to the uniqueness of this deck. If you get the book that goes along with this deck, you will see a story unfold throughout the entire set of cards, beginning with The Fool
