Beautiful art work! Shuffles well. Longer and thicker than a regular Lo Scarabeo deck. I used it a lot in October, and will probably keep on using year round.

I LOVE this deck from top to bottom. It comes in a sturdy upright hardbox. The cards aren't super thick but they are plastic-coated so feel durable and they have a great gloss to them. That said, one card came printed off-center, both front and back and another two came with paper separating/splitting away from the card core. I have written to Lo Scarabeo (in Italy) to see if they will replace the three flawed cards, haven't heard back yet. Even so, I LOVE THIS DECK! The images are exciting, compelling, and meander a little from the best known RSM deck/meanings. That is to say, the card meanings aren't different, just modified, or specific to the deck, which I like very much. It means I can use my knowledge of standard tarot to understand a spread, but get finer detail when I dig into the nuanced meanings of the Santa Muerte deck itself. The images are fanciful, not scary, which makes a reading lots of fun. I read recently for a client who is a pro tarot reader and their response to reading with the Santa Muerte deck was that it was the "most fun, clearest reading" they'd ever had. The illustrations on the cards are colorful and rich, and worth a little extra consideration when reading. Even a one or two card reading can be rich in detail.They speak very clearly if you read by illustration as many intuitive readers are these days. That's not to say the cards abandon traditional numerology and symbolism—there's just a little extra movement and drama in each panel to get your mind and heart pumping. So far I haven't been stumped with these cards. It feels like I'm looking at a party and watching individual episodes unfold and bleed into each other—the way a solid tarot reading can do when the cards talk to each other. As a last point — could go on — "Santa Muerte" is the Death card in this deck. Death is depicted as a pregnant female (skeleton—amusing!) gazing expectantly over an empty baby cradle. Talk about food for thought! And how totally refreshing! If you want to ...er...liven up your readings - get this deck!Read full review

Love the deck. Imagery similarly to the Rider Wait deck . Love the box reminds me of the card boxes from the late1800's .
