Mind Body & Soul Ezine Card Deck Review: The Grand Universal Tarot, by Bruno de Nys, published by REDFeather, an imprint of Schiffer Books. Boxed set of 78 cards and companion book. UK £27.99 : US $29.99 (28/12/2022)
These are brightly coloured cards with traditional images based on the Marseilles Tarot. Described as an ‘alphabet’ and language’, a ‘road map’, the Tarot is explained, with all aspects of our life covered, it warns, encourages, prompts and guides. 5 rules are important to remember - never impress a crowd with your Tarot readings. Do not use it to control others. Do not live your life based on a tarot reading - you are to remain in control of your life. Keep your readings simple and accessible. And do not assert but suggest!
Instructions are given on how to use this deck, The Grand Universal Tarot. These cards are only read in the upright position. Each card is detailed in the book with a number, a title and keywords, a write-up of 80 words, followed by the character involved, a positive meaning and a negative meaning. The position of the card within the spread describes whether it is in a positive or negative position.
The Fool is positioned at the end of the Major Arcana. There are rules provided for giving readings, suggested spreads, or you can use the deck with your own favourite spreads. I liked this deck! It has vibrancy and energy! The Minor Arcana are pip cards, so it helps if the reader has some experience with tarot. Size 14cm x 10cm.
