{"product_id":"giant-rider-waite-tarot-deck","title":"Giant Rider-Waite Tarot Deck","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome decks are art projects. The Rider-Waite is the source code.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1909 with illustrations by Pamela Colman Smith, the Rider-Waite Tarot is the deck that every other deck is in conversation with, whether it admits it or not. The symbolism baked into each card, the posture of the figures, the colour choices, the hidden Hebrew letters, alchemical references, and Kabbalistic structure, became the template for almost every illustrated tarot deck that followed. Learning on this deck isn't nostalgia, it's due diligence. The Giant edition scales everything up so the imagery is actually readable during a spread, which matters more than people admit until they're squinting at a standard-size Hermit at arm's length in dim light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEssential for anyone building a gothic, alternative, or occult practice from the ground up. Equally useful for experienced readers who want a working deck that doesn't require a glossary to understand what Pamela was on about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e78 cards, oversized format. Includes the standard Rider-Waite guidebook.
