I bought these oracle cards because I had the tarot cards with the same artist; Ceccori and I love this artwork.The card size is about the same as a tarot deck but a little wider but are still easy to shuffle. Which is great for me because I have small hands.The cards also don't stick together. So they are easy to shuffle and read the very first time.The book and packaging is nice. The box has a ribbon so it's easy for you to pull the cards out. The book is a decent size with multiple languages and has a good straight to the point meanings for each card. There is a little explaination at the beginning with different way you can read them.1 of the few things I didn't like was that the print quality appears to be a bit low. Also a lot of thesr images are the exact same as the tarot card.There is also the fact that the images don't always match up to the meaning and without wording on the cards it can be hard to remember what they mean unless you intend to make up your own.They are good for the price I paid for but just wish there was a little more to it.
I purchased this set of cards for framing not fit their intended purpose. I am not familiar with "reading cards". (Though I would love to have this ability) I can not review the cards for their intended purpose, I am reviewing them for my purpose which is framing them as artwork in my office.The set includes 32 cards and one book. The cards arrive in a pretty cardboard box, that is thick and protective. The card themselves are a little thicker than what a sports card is. Each card has a pretty scalloped border (which look great framed!). Each card features a different Nicolette Ceccoli print. Each print is colorful and interesting. One I find a little odd, but that is art and I just will not display that particular card. My favorite cards of the set is the gingerbread man getting ate and the Humpty Dumpty getting repaired. They are adorable!On the back of each card is the same design. The book is cute too-both the from and back feature Ceccoli prints. The book itself has 128 pages and it gives an explaination to what each card is reading. It is transcribed in 6 languages, with English being the first.I am very happy with this purchase, I love Ceccoli's artwork and can not wait to frame most of the cards.*****purchased at full price""""
This deck is really best used for Self Help as it is very abstract in nature do to there being no words on the cards them selves. It dose come with a book but any hard cor user of cards might tell you that the book is never really used and the cards them self are lift to do the talking. I main reason I would say this would be best used for self help is do it has more to do with Innocents and a few of the cards Innocent Lost. Which as humans we all go throw in one way or another and will hit you on a level that might not be suitable on friends or clients.As a collectors item it is really beautiful done being wider than the tarot deck really helps show off the art and I am pretty any fan of the artist would love to add this to there Collection.
I loved the Ceccoli Tarot deck, so I naturally assumed that the oracle deck would be just as amazing. Unfortunately this was not the case. The artwork is stunning, but most of it is taken from the tarot deck. What a disappointment. I was expecting all new art. There are no key words on the cards either (as with most other oracle decks), and the imagery is frequently unrelated to the meaning of the cards--extensive memorization is necessary when using them. I wouldn't really consider this a good deck for beginners, so keep that in mind when considering a purchase. I would have given these cards 5 stars if the artwork had been all new, and there had been key words included on the face. All that being said, the quality of the card stock (thick and smooth, easy to shuffle) and the packaging (a pretty little ribbon inside a lovely box) are quite nice.
