Modern Borderless Tarot Deck - Awaken by RYVE, Inspired by Rider Waite, with Guide Book for Beginners & ProfessionalsThe Forest Stewardship Council

This is a great deck! I love that it uses the traditional RWS symbolism with a more modern and diverse twist. The cardstock is a dream to shuffle. It's high-quality and durable while still being flexible and springy enough for riffle shuffling. I have small hands and struggle a bit with standard tarot size, so if this company came out with a bridge-size pocket version of this deck, it would be absolutely perfect. I see that they already came out with a borderless version, so here's hoping they continue to iterate on an already fabulous deck. :)

Great cards no issues.

The Awaken Tarot deck from @my.ryve is a modern take on the traditional tarot deck. Featuring beautiful, inclusive artwork, this deck holds 79 high quality tarot cards (one more than a traditional deck, consisting of two gender neutral cards for The Lovers) that depict people of different genders, ethnicities, and appearances. The deck also comes with a guidebook, which is helpful for beginners such as myself.As a child, my mum always had tarot decks around the house. I’ve always wanted to learn more about what each card meant and how they were used.As an adult, this deck has come into my life at the right time. The guidebook has been an extremely helpful hand in teaching me what each card means and how tarot is used for guidance.While my understanding is still very infantile, I have already begun looking at things in a different light. I feel more positive and centered, understanding things from my past and present and going as far as to gain guidance to things I want in my future.

I’ve been collecting tarot decks since I was a kid. My parents are both therapists and also we’re meditation teachers, so going to our local shops to look at different decks, books and crystals was a common thing we did.My first tarot when I was still in early grade school, was the Enchanted Tarot back, back in the 90’s.As you can imagine I’ve built quite a collection at this point. As an artist, the artwork and design of the deck is quite important for me; the cards have to feel good in the hands, and these do.I absolutely love the cardstock, it feels like my Inner Hue Oracle deck, but with thinner mass market cardstock. Very smooth and velvety. The artwork is very much centered around the RWS/RWS clone deck, and follows that system.This isn’t in my top 10 favorite decks I own, but I still enjoy it and have continued using it. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes RWS decks and likes to see diversity in their decks; also newbie friendly.

My starter deck I still use. Haven’t moved on to another one. Love the diverse pictures as a WOC I liked this deck and it continues to work for me

I enjoy this deck! The energy in it is very light and straightforward but not harsh or passive. A happy middle ground. The card stock is nice but the finish of the card is slippery especially while new. It’s the type of thing where you may have to lick your finger before plucking unless you’re a person that flips the cards every single time.

I am very pleased with this deck, the box and manual are very nicely done, the cards of high quality. Those familiar with the Rider Waite Deck should feel at home here as it is a contemporary deck that retains import symbolism. Most of us should be able to relate with the people depicted. This deck offers alternative versions of The Lovers card, so you can choose which you want to use. If you are new to Tarot I think this would be an excellent deck to start off with. If you already can read with the Rider Waite deck you shouldn’t have any problem transitioning.

I'm fairly new to tarot but have purchased several tarot and oracle decks. I've been using the Oak, Ash, and Thorn, Lightseers, and Everyday Witch decks - all wonderful decks, each calling upon me for specific readings. But then the Rider-Waite decks began to interest me, which is odd because they didn't when I attempted tarot 30 years ago (it's why I gave up trying to learn).Problem: the traditional RW imagery doesn't resonate with me. I wanted a slight update to the classic depictions, which lead me to this deck and the Modern Witch tarot.The styling of this deck won out. The cards are mat but aren't too thick, and the gold foil descriptions give the cards just enough flair. I love the fact that this is a multicultural deck. Also, the flip-open box is really nice.After cleansing and blessing the deck, I did my first reading. Wonderful energy and accurate reading. Highly recommended!
