Unlock ancient mysteries with The Original Rider-Waite Tarot Deck. Rich with symbolism, it has set the standard for Tarot decks since 1909. All 78 cards contain hand drawn images and scenes, letting you interpret without needing to consult a book. With this deck, dive into an adventure of spiritual exploration and discovery.

"A unique feature of the Rider-Waite deck, and one of the of the principal reasons for its enduring popularity, is that all of the cards, including the Minor Arcana, depict full scenes with figures and symbols. Prior to the Rider-Waite Tarot, the pip cards of almost all tarot decks were marked only with the arrangement of the suit signs -- swords, wands, cups, and coins, or pentacles. The pictorial images on all the cards allow interpretations without the need to repeatedly consult explanatory text. The innovative Minor Arcana, and Pamela Colman Smith's ability to capture the subtleties of emotion and experience have made the Rider-Waite Tarot a model for the designs of many tarot packs." -- (from The Encyclopedia of Tarot, Volume III)
