Product Description

Synopsis

The best-selling Medieval Scapini Tarot Deck receives thoughtful commentary from Ronald Decker. The author guides the reader through the history of tarot while reflecting upon fifteenth century Italy and the wonderful - and sometimes humorous - artwork that comprises this lavish deck. Luigi Scapini created a deck that was rich in style and historical attributes, and here is a companion text worthy of partnership with his deck.

5.0 out of 5 stars beautiful cards 2 Dec 2012
By Annie
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
These are beatiful cards to hold and read, liked the fact that they are big cards made them feel that bit more special. Beautifully illistrated. The book a bit deep but having read other Tarot books i was able to adapt. The small booklet that came was good. i would buy again if had to.

5.0 out of 5 stars Major Addition to any collection!!! 12 Jun 2005
By Richard K. Kostoff - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This tarot deck is one of the finest in print! It was one of the first packs I began learning from in 1986. It is replete with all the occult trapping and mysterious images one could look for. There is one difference from other tarots of a similar nature-it has this brilliant sense of humor! The tarot is like an oil lamp. It can either light your way, or burn down your house. This particular pack offers the protection of laughter in a reading, which I find so relevant.

The details here are too numerous to mention. One can almost sense the mist rising from the Moon card, or feel the warmth in the Strength card. The Minors are so highly detailed that I am still noticing various flora and fauna. The backs are always important as welll. These are of a gilt goldtone that dont wear away after years of use.

If you are looking to branch out with your mystical dabblings and wish to give your reading new flash, look no further! This is my most recommended pack for beginners and intermediaries alike. Very little nudity, so this would be fine for clients of all ages!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best! 26 Dec 2006
By Avalon - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is the most accurate deck that I have ever read from. It is almost always accurate even about things people don't want to believe. This was my first deck and every one I have used since has given less detail. The cards are slightly larger than some of the more recent decks and I really like that. It really sets the tone, as if my hands recognize that these are different. The artwork is really unusual, they look painted, with gold backs. These cards still look beautiful after years of use. Still my favorite after trying many different decks!

3.0 out of 5 stars A Great Deck If You Can Stay Focused 20 Jan 2010
By Sean Paradis - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I find the Medieval Scrapini tarot deck by Luigi Scrapini to be a confusing when reading the spreads. The cards are lusciously colored in gold, copper, and many other metallic colors. There are natural colors like blues and reds, but many of the backgrounds are compiled of the metallic ones. For me, this makes it difficult to read the images in a tarot spread. Will this happen to everyone? No. if someone was to be drawn to those colors more often this deck would be perfect for them.

For me, the colors just create confusion. What happens in my mind is that the background and the foreground blend together, and I can't read the card with three dimensions, which is how I personally read tarot cards. What I recommend to do is to Google this deck online and look at the images of the cards. If the colors don't seem to distract you, look further into buying the cards. However, if you're like me, and the colors seem to be too much to look at at one time, I would recommend looking at another deck.
