Product Description
Product Description
The popularity of tarot just grows and grows. There are many decks now available -some look attractive and interesting, others look deep and mysterious and just a little scary. It is difficult to know how to find out more, and how to get started with a user-friendly deck. "The Tarot Box" is the answer. In one handy package you will find everything you need. The deck is the Sharman-Caselli classic, specially created to make things easier for beginners, and its size is convenient to use anywhere. The clip-fit layout board fits together in seconds and each side is printed with a card layout. The five-card horseshoe spread for a specific question, and the seven-card triangle spread for a general life picture. Experienced tarot tutor, Juliet Sharman-Burke, writes the book. She first introduces you to the deck card by card, and then shows you how to make your first reading. And she includes sample readings from her own workshops with tarot students, to show you how interpreting the cards works in practice. Why does the tarot continue to fascinate us? Juliet is convinced that although the modern world can offer us so much, we still feel a need to learn more about our inner selves. The tarot cards offer a space and place for the imagination, somewhere where imagery and dreams can be explored for divination, for meditation and for therapy. We all yearn to know if we will find love, security and spiritual meaning in our lives: the tarot can help us find the answers. No wonder the tarot goes from strength to strength. And no wonder you will love "The Tarot Box".

Format:Hardcover
The Tarot Box is a lovely Beginner's set containing the mini version of the beautiful Sharman-Caselli deck, a book and a layout board. The cute little box measures 9 x 9 x 9cm with the symbols of the four suits printed gold on dark blue background. The cards measure 5 x 8.5 cm, a handy size to use on small tables anywhere. Although the book contains 336 pages, it's only as small as the box, so contents are brief yet concise and to the point. The book contains a short introduction to Tarot including history and how to choose a deck, how to get to know your deck, explanation of individual cards as well as plenty of reading exercises. Although I'm not a beginner, I still got some new ideas on exercises and other useful information (I mainly wanted the mini edition of my favourite deck). For a beginner, this set is ideal, because the book does not contain too much information, it's easy to read and the cards are well-suited for people with no prior Tarot knowledge. This is an inexpensive yet good quality Tarot set; a good choice for anyone interested in learning Tarot.

I was looking for a small size tarot, RW style, when I found this box. I decided to purchase it because I find the sharman-caselli a very beautiful deck, and also because I like the way sharman-Burke explains the cards, Through association of pictures and their meaning. I am enchanted with this set and I recommend it to anyone. I only wish the cards would be thicker.

Disappointed
23 May 2010

I was very disappointed in The Tarot Box. The cards are very small and difficult to work with. The interpretations of the cards are too simplistic with no depth whatsoever, offering very little as far as learning the art of Tarot. I am returning the item.
Fun little kit
13 Sep 2011
Format:Hardcover
I loved this little kit. I already have many tarot decks and I bought this box in person so I knew it would be small. The little deck has nice images that I haven't seen before, similar but just a little different than the regular Rider-Waite. It has 9 thick cardboard puzzle pieces that connect to form a place to lay the cards on. If you flip it over it's a different color layout. Overall fun little kit. The book is an almost an inch thick and 3 2/3 x 3 2/3 inches and has some content I haven't seen of some ways to use the cards. I have no problem shuffling the little cards at all and they are the only deck of this size that I have. I wanted a smaller deck to leave cards out without taking up much space. I also own the tiny keychain tarot - now those cards are tiny and I love them too, they go with me everywhere. This deck is 3 2/3 inches by 2 inches and the cards are thin enough to be able to shuffle the small deck easily. The box it coFmes in, is a cube that has 3 3/4 inch sides. Fun little kit that would be good if you want small cards to leave out without taking much space, or to take camping etc.
