Product Description
Synopsis
This system is designed to help the reader discover their path in life. Based on the authentic gypsy teachings of 19th-century Russia, this pack contains 25 cards - illustrated in the Russian "Palekh" style - and an accompanying book. The book explains the meaning of the various cards and how they can be used to assess the present and predict the future. Each card includes four symbols drawn from nature, snippets of formal religion and the routines and relationships of daily life. The cards are shuffled and laid out in a square and if, by rotation, two halves of a symbol can be joined, that symbol has significance.

Don't let the name turn you off..these cards are wonderful. I picked up a deck of these unique cards for my boyfriend a few months ago, and had to get my own set. They are square cards-each edge holds half of a beautifully done picture. Follow the instructions for laying the cards out, and see what pictures form. Then consult the well-written book, read the entry for those pictures in those specific positions and oila! You have your just done your own card reading. Very accurate. I read Tarot and Medicine Cards as well..this was a nice break from those. Easy to learn and read..these are great for anyone having trouble, frustrated, or just looking for a break from Tarot. I can't say enough..they are enchanting, gorgeous cards, and they work wonderfully!

For the last three months I've been working with these cards, and did readings for a lot of my friends aswell as myself. They are not only easy to use and accurate, they are very beautiful and it is a pleasure to find the matching pictures. We have had some great times reading the cards, although I had contstantly to translate them into German. Since there are four positions with different meanings, I still find new aspects. Great fun, but be aware that it takes about half an hour for one reading.

I have used the Russian Gypsy Fortune telling cards off and on for several years. It is accurate and easy to use -- there is nothing to memorize, this system is straight forward. They are beautiful, artistic cards with 1/2 pictures on them. You lay out the cards and see if you have any "joined" pictures. Then you look up the meaning in the book.
The book and the meaning of the cards are written in a down to earth style, It is also spiced with Russian folk sayings such as "Love isn't like a potato, you can't throw it out the window".
If you are looking for something that is a bit exotic, but easy to use and follow, order this. You won't be disappointed.
