5.0 out of 5 stars Fresh Perspective on Tarot, Mar 12 2003
By Jaymi Elford "innowen" (PacNW) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Fey Tarot distills the best of both worlds in tarot and the art of Japanese anime, recombining them into something new and exciting. This deck is wonderful for both the young at heart and in age. The tarot presented here is lighthearted and kind, "bringing no shadows." However this lightness does not eliminate the darkness of traditional decks; instead, The Fey Tarot twists and subdues the negative card meanings inwards. In doing so, this set becomes easily accessible and understood by children.

"The Fey Tarot is a deck full of life," Minetti writes. There cannot be anything closer to the truth. The bold colors of the cards contrast with the simplicity of the design, creating a uniquely majickal and deftly detailed series of story-cards. Each whole card is alive; from the attention paid to the expression in each creature's eyes to the way the fey's world blends naturally into the card. Using a combination of unique and bold color palettes, Aghem brings the center focus of each card straight into the emotions the cards evoke. Every creature's face, every part of their actions, contains realistic emotions. Each card becomes a theater for the mind's eye; where the fey perform on center stage teaching their lessions and showing their perspectives and views of the world and the meaning of life. The cards beg to be played with and explored.

The book is also a masterpiece. At 156 pages long, it delves deeper into the concepts and ideas that made this deck possible. It begins with the core foundations and beliefs of the artwork, goes straight into designer Aghem's mind showing how she developed the cards' sketches and emotions. Then it introduces tarot and how the fey and tarot match one another perfectly. Lastly, the cards themselves are described in detail. Minetti adding layer upon layer of insight and meaning into the simple but intricate artwork. The book ends by showing 4 unique spreads to user the cards with, from simple 3 card on up to complex 8 card designs.

The Fey Tarot is a great addition to tarot enthusiasts' collections. This is the product of Minetti and Aghem's first collaboration (hopefully not their last!). This deck marks a new perspective on deck design fopr the new millennium. It also moves away from traditional meanings of the cards giving them a fresh and playful twist. I would also recommend this deck as a great way to introduce young children to the modern world of the tarot, as it presents a very accessible and non-threatening view of it and the concepts tarot contains.
