It follows the Rider-Waite Tarot construction with nothing “watered down” or modified as is frequent in different Angel Tarot programs.
The angelic art work on the playing cards is a basic impressed fantastic artwork model collage which principally follows the symbolic picture construction of the Rider Waite system.
The Main Arcana has completely different named angels depicted (and defined within the guidebook) that correspond with every card. ie The Moon Card options Archangel Raphael.
The Minor Arcana imagery depicts scenes carefully mirroring the Rider-Waite playing cards, however with the identical classical artwork model, and depicting an angel someplace within the scene.
The court docket playing cards pictures are of actual historic figures which correspond to the playing cards that means which is an attention-grabbing extra layer.

Angel Tarot Playing cards
The Angel Tarot Playing cards had been initially revealed by Doreen Advantage and Radleigh Valentine. It is since, been republished with Radleigh Valentine as the only real writer.
It is a full 78 card tarot deck, with lovely art work that includes angels, mermaids, unicorns, and fairies by the gifted artist Steve A. Roberts.
One of many authors promoting factors for this deck is that you need to use the Angel Tarot with out the entire negativity and ego based mostly properties that some are inclined to affiliate with extra conventional tarot card decks. It’s mentioned to have been designed to be “100% mild, protected, and reliable”. For instance, “the Idiot card” within the Rider tarot is modified to “The Dreamer” on this deck.The surprising “Tower” tarot card has been modified to “Life Expertise” and the “Satan” card is modified to “Ego”.
Lovely and magical imagery can also be used all through the deck in order that (virtually) each card lifts and conjures up by way of lovely visible imagery together with offering perception. I say virtually as a result of there are a couple of playing cards I actually don’t love…
Within the Angel Tarot deck, every of the Main Arcana playing cards correlates with an Archangel, and their particular space of experience, which could be extremely useful to know.
Different adjustments when in comparison with conventional tarot decks embrace the Fits…Usually the Tarot is split into cups, wands, swords, and pentacles.
The fits within the Angel Tarot have been modified to fireplace, water, air, and earth. These are the weather related to every go well with in the usual Tarot, so its not an enormous change… The art work and symbols each honor and stray from the usual Rider-Waite Tarot Playing cards.
Angel Tarot by Travis McHenry
I actually wished to love this Angel Tarot deck by Travis McHenry, however I used to be disenchanted.
Straying a bit from the standard Rider-Waite construction, this deck has 72 playing cards every corresponding with the 72 angels of the Kabbalah. On every of the 72 playing cards, the standard sigil (assume magical calling card for that angel) is featured. I like this half!
In a method this deck is a good introduction to the 72 angels of the Kabbalah, as they’re all proper there, sigils included in a single place. However aside from that I discovered the deck missing.
Neither the playing cards, nor the guidebook give any actual data on the 72 angels aside from their title and sigil.
The art work can also be very minimal, and for my part deceptive (lots of the playing cards have a darkish taste/ really feel) by way of the energetic high quality and traits of the angels.
It is a tarot deck, so the playing cards do have a listed correspondance with the standard tarot construction. ie. the Archangel Michael card is alleged to characterize the Chariot … However the connections aren’t apparent, which makes the deck tough to make use of for readings.
The Angel Tarot by Jayne Wallace
The Angel Tarot by Jayne Wallace is a full 78-card Tarot Deck illustrated with lovely angelic imagery. It additionally encompasses a full shade guidebook providing descriptions of the playing cards.
The angel illustrations on this deck have a ravishing and vivid watercolor really feel, particularly the Main Arcana playing cards and Court docket Playing cards (Kings, Queens, Pages) .
The remainder of the Minor Arcana playing cards sadly (Cups, Pentacles, Swords, and Wands) shouldn’t have the identical high quality art work and have a repetitive really feel. Your entire Cups go well with for instance (10 playing cards) have the identical design… Easy blue wings within the background with 1 to 10 cups within the foreground on the cardboard. When in comparison with the richness of symbolism within the Rider-Waite Tarot for instance, that is actually missing and makes intuitively studying the playing cards fairly difficult since you’re lacking key visible cues.
That being mentioned, if you happen to’re in search of a deck to do gentle Tarot readings based mostly on the descriptions within the guidebook, this may very well be a great possibility for you. The guidebook descriptions are gentle, mild and angelic not “harsh” in any method as different tarot decks could be perceived to be.
The Angel Knowledge Tarot
The Angel Knowledge Tarot is the most recent (and fully solo created) deck from Radleigh Valentine, illustrated by Daniel Craig and revealed by way of Hay Home.
It options angelic imagery with numerous intentionally included symbolism on every card to assist add depth and that means to your readings. I like that they included imagery that factors to the astrological correspondence, Archangels associations, and Main Arcana affiliation for every card.
The Angel Knowledge Tarot principally follows the Rider Waite system, nevertheless some playing cards are modified in an try and “soften” the that means. ie. the Idiot is modified to the Dreamer. The Temperance card is modified to stability, and so forth.
Every of the playing cards additionally encompasses a written description proper on the cardboard. I do not actually desire this in my decks as a result of I wish to learn intuitively, however it has change into considerably of a typical with Hay Home decks, and it might make studying the playing cards extra newbie pleasant particularly if you happen to’re first beginning out with the Tarot.
This deck does embrace a guidebook which intentionally presents optimistic and uplifting meanings to information your readings.
Which of those do you want most! Remark and let me know, or if you understand of different Angel Tarot Playing cards you’ve got loved you should definitely share!
