Notoria: Tarot in Light (Goetia Tarot, 3)

Purchased these because they are so richly colored and I wanted to add them to my collection. I didn't anticipate using them for readings or as my personal deck. As soon as unboxed them I knew they would be special to me and they are magnificent for reading. Not every reader will have the same or similar response but for those who the cards resonate with it is amazing.On first inspection it would appear that the deck would be overwhelming for those not well versed in the various esoteric subjects. However the text on the side of the card offers easy reference to each topic.The cards themselves are of excellent quality, on the smaller size and will fit well in smaller hands. They are coated and quite slippery, making fanning them easy but shuffling tricky. The colors are vibrant, the imagery has a dreamlike or surrealistic quality that invites the viewer to delve deeper, I could happily hang many in my home. For the price of the cards it is truly a bargain, my only regret is that I did not order the companion deck, Goetia: Tarot in Darkness, with it and now have to wait for it to be delivered.

The cards are numbered to the traditional suits but also follow an angelic numbering system that coordinates to the guidebook so your deck will not come ordered to the traditional tarot system. That threw me off at first, I reordered to make sure all the cards were there and then began learning Fabio Listrani’s system. I also purchased the Goetia at the same time.The Notoria cards come in shades of black, red, white, and gold. The box is sturdy, top opening, and will keep your cards well protected. The symbols coordinate to the the Lesser Key of Solomon. You don’t need to know this however, you can still read this as a traditional tarot but I would advise another guidebook however if reading this way.

So happy with this new deck! It features as follows:🃏 72 angels from Johannes Reuchlin's 16th century grimoire, along with six more angels - Raphael, Gabriel, Uriel, Michael, Metatron and Lucifer.🃏 The planetary system of the deck emcompasses Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, the Sun, Venus, Mercury and our Moon, of course.🃏 Each card also has a correspondance with mayor an minor arcana from tarot, wands are often depicted as candles for example, and swords as spears in most cases.🃏 The cards are printed on a high-quality, glossy cardstock, so they seem durable.I wanted to suggest to the author some possible improvements: a section on how to navigate the cards, expand the deck's content onto a website and more importantly color coding for quicker readability.I actually wanted to get the previous deck Goetia, but it doesn't have much color, so its harder to read, at least for me.Overall, great deck 🤹, I would recommend for ayone who is also drawn to mystical symbolism, divination or personal reflection.

I have both the dark and now the light of these decks! I collect tarot decks and if you do then I recommend having both! The card stock on these are A1+ the images and color another A1+ the readings are extremely accurate! The connection and energy off both decks are amazing!!! Trust me you want both decks! Love them!!!

Brilliant colors. Beautiful Angelic beings.Notoria follows the traditional Tarot to some extent but the Pentacle cards are the most difficult to see the resemblance.The card meanings rarely seem to follow Traditional interpretation, as well.This deck is about Angel's, Cherubs and such. Each card names the Tarot number and traditional name. The deck is numbered 1- 78 but the numerical number system is nothing even similar to Tarot.Can it be read as a Tarot deck? Yes, if you have a good knowledge of Tarot. Or it can just be read visually as a message from the Angelic realm and gawk at the Beautiful images.I love it. It's truly stunning. Kind of Gothic. Reds and Golds however.Wings, Wings, Wings!

This was an impulse buy but I do not regret it! I was immediately called and attracted to these cards not just because of their color scheme and art but bc it’s theme is related to the angels of the Lesser Key of Solomon. I was interested in one particular spirit and I couldn’t find his card and then figured out that he’s only apart of the dark version of the Notoria deck—which sucks but I’ll consider also buying the dark version.

I would give a 5 star but was contemplating. All is amazing. The deck is falling apart unfortunately (peeling). I won't request refund out of the respect to the artist.

I am loving this deck. The artwork is amazing! The deck is deeply layered with symbolism and various aspects of the card. This is great for the advanced reader. Great card stock. Loving using this deck. It really speaks to me.
