Crystal Visions Tarot

Product Information

Galasso's attention to detail is impressive -- the Ace of Cups is one of the most beautiful cards I have ever seen in a tarot deck. Based on the traditional structure of the RWS (Rider-Waite-Smith) system of a 78 card deck, you will find the familiar names of the Major Arcana, the Court, and the suits: Wands, Cups, Pentacles, Swords. Welcome to the official site of the Crystal Visions Tarot by fantasy artist/illustrator Jennifer Galasso.

The beautiful cardbacks are reversible, and reversed interpretations are given in the Little White Book. Casting looks over their shoulders at their complement, an enchanted game of hide-and-seek plays out in the misty valleys, canopied lanes, and aspiring peaks of this otherworldly deck.

The Crystal Visions Tarot has a fantasy fairy feel to it, but wings are at a minimum and there’s nary a pointy ear in sight.

Galasso also attributes her interest in the spiritual realm to Stevie's haunting voice, ethereal nature, and poetic lyrics. I'm not a big fan of extra cards in tarot decks, especially with vague descriptions, so likely I'd use the deck without this one. The cards are a *tiny* bit thinner than I normally would like, but given that the cards are also larger than my other decks, the thickness actually keeps the deck easy to shuffle, once you get used to it. I also use other affiliate links and each post that contains affiliate links will be highlighted as such. It is a 79 card deck, based on the traditional tarot imagery and symbolism of the Rider-Waite Smith deck.I have often wondered what might have happened if an earlier generation of artists like Roger Dean and Alton Kelley had turned their attention to tarot.

While not intended by the artist, I have to agree with a comment in the introduction that some of the imagery in this deck does bring to mind the faerie realm. However, I was initially unsure if I wanted to use the Unknown Card, or use my prerogative to remove it. We are given the usual DMs but we are also given insight into the reasoning behind the depiction of the characters on the cards. I think my clients will like it, and I know I'll enjoy reading with it, especially when I need a change from RWS clone decks and I'd like something soft yet powerful.

Overall I am very happy with my purchase of the Crystal Visions Tarot and will continue to get to know it and work with it in my daily life! This is a 79 card deck, usually, tarot decks are 78 cards but this includes a further card outlined in the review. The art alone is gorgeous, and the additional card (the Unknown Card) to me opens up new avenues for reading. A woman lies at rest on her back in snow that almost covers her, and her arms are crossed as if keeping her only slightly warm.
