You're going to love the brilliant and colorful imagery of The Quest Tarot! Its familiar design and the keywords on each card make it ideal to learn the Tarot. For more depth you can work with the following tools, all explained in the included 288-page book: 

  • Symbolism that includes the I Ching, runes, animals, Kabalah, gemstones, and more
  • An easy-to-use yes/no question system hidden on the court cards
  • A clock symbol on each card to resolve the difficulty of timing predictions
  • Cards that indicate hair, eye, and skin color for information about people discussed in your tarot readings

The Quest Tarot can be used in so many different ways that it really can be considered a universal divination tool. The more you learn about astrology, the runes, the I Ching, and other systems, the more information you can add to your tarot readings and the more useful this tarot deck will become. However, if you're like most people, discovering all of the amazing uses of this deck is just a bonus to the joy you'll experience as you gasp in awe at the art: this tarot deck is filled with intense colors and 3D computer realism and surrealism.

COVR WINNER OF BEST INTERACTIVE SIDELINE!

Publisher Review:

When I first saw The Quest Tarot my first thought was "Wow! The art is absolutely astounding." The deck is filled with 3D computer realism and surrealism. The colors are often quite intense (distinctly different from some of the more pastel visions of the cards). The lands of the background in The Fool appear to have been cut from the Grand Canyon. Pillars around The Magician seem to be transparent light that has been bound to keep it in place. Light springs from unknown sources on the glassy surface below The Empress. Translucent spirals ending in a yin-yang hang in the sky behind the brilliance of the Hierophant’s crown. A woman of molten silver rips open barriers between universes while she rides and controls a lion of liquid fire. The balance scales of Justice seem to come from a thousand years into a Daliesque future. The hanged man appears to be of glass. The figure of Death, rather than ambling from east to west, is almost frighteningly realistic, leaping off the card and coming right at you. [Years ago I thought this would be appropriate and I’m glad to see someone actually did this.] The Tower is a futuristic cylinder being attacked by speeding meteors. The Moon is photorealistic while The Universe dispenses with the Waite-Smith symbolism, instead going with a photorealistic view of the Earth and a distant nebula. The extra card, The Multiverse, shows an expanding vision of amazing planets and unlimited possibilities. This deck is a welcome shock to the system.  .  .  read more

We live in a world that tends to define things in binary opposition — good and evil, right and wrong, young and old, male and female, etc. On one hand, you could argue that duality simplifies our life by putting everything into neat categories.

The recent economic downturn has had a ripple effect into most businesses, including those in the psychic/astrological consultation sector. Most people are cutting back on life's little extras and are spending their money more consciously.
