Baroque
Bohemian Cats' Tarot
A charming deck for cat fanciers and those who appreciate the whimsical side of a magical deck like this one. From the back of the boxed card/book set: "The Baroque Bohemian Cats' Tarot is set in an enthralling feline fantasy world. Each card in the fully illustrated 78-card deck shows gorgeously costumed cats slinking and sashaying through historical gardens, palaces, and theaters. The images are by turns evocative, funny and poignant. A rich visual banquet in true Baroque style."

The result is a deck of great charm and fantastic detail." --Deck by Karen Mahoney
and Alex Ukolov

Fairy
Tarot
This charming fairy deck offers a fun, enchanting, and light-hearted approach to a Tarot Reading. Yet, a serious message can still be obtained through these delightful cards. If not for one card containing nudity -- the Judgment card -- this could have been an excellent deck in reading for children. However, the young-at-heart can still enjoy a magical moment with the Fairy Tarot. From the box of cards: "Interpret signs through enchanted dreams and the magic of the Ageless People." From the little fold-out
booklet: "Fairies are teasing, magical creatures who live in
the woods. Gifted with wings and with an incredible agility, these
tiny little spirits endow the forest with life, thanks to their jokes and
to their innate euphoria."
--Deck by Antonio Lupatelli

Fairy
Tale Tarot
This is such a delightful and pretty deck! The colors are attractive and it's a fun and lighthearted way to work with the Tarot and do a reading. Although not a Rider-Waite clone, there are similarities in this deck. This deck is among my favorites, especially when I'm in the mood for a whimsical Tarot touch. It's a light-hearted approach to the Tarot. Because after all . . . Tarot is still supposed to be fun! From the back of the box:
"In the land of fairytales, where animals talk, fools triumph and carpets
fly, and anything is possible. These tales not only amaze and amuse
us, they can also teach a very special wisdom -- and they are universal.
The FairyTale Tarot includes a huge range of stories: The Snow Queen,
Cinderella, The Constant Tin Soldier, and Puss-in-Boots are all here, but
they appear alongside characters that may not be so familiar. Traditional
tales of wonder from around the world, both famed and less well-known,
have been carefully chosen and brought together to make a tarot deck that's
rich, many-layered and like fairytales themselves, a delightful mix of
light and dark. These are wonderful cards to use for story-telling,
or simply to spark imagination, insight, and a sense of magic.

Forest
Folklore Tarot
A charming deck that is beautiful to look at and offers a calming energy for any reading. This is not one of those "cutesie" decks that some people prefer to avoid (even though I like just about every kind of deck). I enjoy working with this deck and it's imagery. The Minor Arcana cards of this deck bring to life forest folklore filled with fairies, imps, nymphs, and dwarves. Each Ace is portrayed with an animal native to the New Forest. Water color and photography are used in the art creations From the box of cards:
"The enchanting cards of Forest Folklore Tarot are inspired by a unique
area of the United Kingdom called the New Forest. These historical
woodlands -- lush with wildlife and legends -- provide the landscape for
imps, fairies, nymphs, dwarves, and other creatures that call this area
their home. Based on traditional tarot interpretations, the deck
was rendered using watercolor combined with photography."

When the mood is right and you're ready for a change of pace that offers an escape into an enchanted land of childhood magic, the Tarot of a Moon Garden can take you to those far away places of the imagination. It's a deck suitable for anyone of any age and provides meaningful readings with pretty images that add a delightful touch of charm to your reading. From the little instruction
booklet included, Laura E. Clarson explains the art work of Karen Marie
Sweikhardt and how it represents the Tarot of a Moon Garden Tarot cards:
"From
these magical images, the whimsical symbols used in the Tarot of A Moon
Garden have emerged. The dragonfly forms the hilt of the suit
of Swords. Unicorns act as guides through the wonderland of the lunar
landscape. Dragons indicate areas for transformation and warn of
temptation. Butterflies hover near wild mushrooms and lush ferns
in the dense lunar forests. Hot air balloons are sometimes sighted
in the gardens of the moon bringing visitors from other worlds. Castles
serve as welcome hospitality to those seeking shelter. Beneficent
angels and playful fairies offer guidance and camaraderie as the seeker
journeys through the experiences of the Major and Minor arcana cards of
the tarot. Dolphins inhabit the sapphire depths of the lunar seas
acting as helpful messengers for those who quest with a pure heart." Deck

Whimsical
Tarot
Don't let the idea of a "cute" deck fool you! This delightful deck is filled with childhood stories, fables, and fairy tales . . . designed to let simple and direct illustrations speak to you immediately. And it's a deck that works! This is also the best deck I've seen that is perfectly suited for children and seekers who have reservations about Tarot. There is nothing at all scary in this deck, and there is no nudity . . . thus, it's an excellent choice for the young and the young-at-heart alike. From the Little White
Book: "Childhood stories are built of simple ideas, have simple
plots, and teach simple lessons. The brain already knows this stuff,
so there's nothing to sort through or think about. That being the
case, the messages arrive undisturbed. Once we package them together,
we can then engage the thinking process to determine how they affect us,
and come up with a solution, if need be. It's as simple as that."
