Occult Tarot

Good quality product

Incredible. Credible. I just finished my first reading. I modified some aspects from what was instructed within the booklet, such as the candle layout. Yes, there is a specific altar arrangement and direction to face for reading these cards. As always, be sure to cast your circle as the author also mentions. He also says to not omit the offering, or Lucifer will write your name in blood in the Book of Lies. There are specific instructions. This is basically ceremonial Magick. If you follow the steps lined out, you shall reap the rewards of answered questions! And the demons are true, and answer truthfully. My first reading was on point and very deep. The deck particularly utilizes the Celtic Cross spread, so it would be good to be familiar with that spread first. This is not for beginners in tarot or beginners in sorcery. Be warned. It’s not an “ask and pull” type of deck. You are summoning a demon and the additional 10 are your cues/answers. The author states to do one reading a day, maximum. Along with one reading a month, maximum. If you are an experienced occultist you may commune with the demons as thou wilt. Remember that. Regarding the Celtic cross being the only spread given to use, I believe you should remain with this format; however if you are experienced in Goetic work, feel free to do as thou wilt. The circle is now closed, my offerings made, and I feel sublime. The veil is torn open and I feel the energy beaming down on me. Dive in; mindfully. Remember to not be afraid. In all honesty, you should have Goetic practice beforehand and should have worked with demons prior to using this deck. This isn’t just an ordinary tarot deck; it’s a ceremonial magick demonic summoning and invocation. Keep that in mind. If you haven’t worked with demons before, do not start here. I mean it. My words are heavy because the work is indeed heavy. You will flex your willpower with these cards. They are more than cards, they are sigils and gateways, portals and callings. For those of you experienced in Goetic work, you will love this deck. You will. I believe you can adapt it to your workings outside of tarot, in a high magick sense. You’ll know how once they are in your hands. Do not forget the offering before blowing out the candles. Doing so will mean torment. Torment upon torment. So offer what you will, as the author gives recommendations, and do not forget it. This will enhance your tarot reading capabilities to the core. This will flex your spiritual strength to the core. This may be a test to many, but will prove a dark blessing for the few. I’m not gatekeeping, but rather giving you the facts of what to expect with this deck. Enjoy your communion with the infernal hosts of hell and get what you desire. Go in strong and capable - mindful and aware - and you will see for yourself that the gates of hell are opened unto you and forbidden knowledge has been imparted to you.

The more I use these cards the more I love them. I like how they are associated with specific cards in the rider-Waite Tarot deck. You can read them that way, or go by the demon on the card. I really like the pictures and the descriptions written on the card about each specific demon. I sometimes just like to look at the cards in the meanings familiarizing myself with the demons. They also were great during phone readings as clarifying cards. I do professional psychic readings for a living. After buying these, I also bought the demon of the day cards and those are amazing as well. I use them both together for readings as well. If one is into the left-hand path or has an interest, these cards are great for learning as well as divination. I couldn’t be happier with them.

I loved everything about the design of the cards. I love the box and the way the lettering what metallic red. I loved the way the entire thing was packaged. I even love the art style on the cards themselves. The card stock itself was a bit thinner than what I originally thought it would be - I wouldn't say they are dangerously thin but, I would not consider them to be as sturdy as my other tarot decks. I will say that the instructions for how to use said-tarot should be taken with a grain of salt as it all depends on what you believe in. Infernals or "Daemons" were considered to be Old Gods that were demonized in Abrahamic Religion. King Solomon would use seals and talismans to bind these Daemons to do his bidding. I, for one, believe that Infernals and Old Gods should be treated respectfully, therefore I do not recommend using anything related to Solomon to "bind" and "command" these entities. To me, this is just asking for trouble - but again, it all comes down to your own personal belief and practice in the end. A very cool deck though.

Good quality

The deck is pretty cool, and I like the feel of the card stock, although I worried that the oils in my fingertips would start to warp the card stock after a while. Additionally, the edging feels kind of fragile and like it could easily scratch off. I was kind of nervous about handling the cards too much because I kept fearing that the edges would get scraped up, as there was already a little speck chipped off on the side of the cards when I took them out of the box. I ended up sleeving each card to protect them (I recommend getting card sleeves that are at least 71 cm wide and 120 cm tall, because a standard 70 cm wide sleeve leaves them snug enough in the sleeve to slightly bend). Otherwise, I love the way the red edging glimmers in the sunlight. I've always thought that the illustrations from the Dictionnaire Infernal were pretty quirky and wild looking, so I'm pretty pleased to have a tarot deck full of them now. The booklet has a nice matte cover, glossy pages, and it's a neat companion to the deck, but like others have said, it doesn't really give a large wealth of information when it comes to the demons on each card. The box seems like it could use a bit of tweaking, as the cards don't all seem to fit inside the center compartment. The top couple of cards always ended up sliding freely around until the booklet was placed on top of them. All in all, I like the deck, but the cards do seem to be a bit fragile.

Come descrizione, carte bellissime

I have never bought an occult tarot deck and this is filled with devils and negative beings and all that....but it is fabulously and freakishly EXCELLENT in giving guidance. I just don't get it. Also, it works VERY WELL if you use it to find out what has gone wrong and use the Angel Deck by the same creator to find out the solution. I was literally blown away with these two in usage together.

When I saw this tarot deck I couldn't help, I was captured by its concept. However, although the quality of the book, box and cards is good, this is not a tarot deck as we know...just to be clear: it has A (one) common trait with a tarot deck, the number of cards only. Also, it's not divided into major and minor arcana, but has the six rulers and the 72 demons as found in the archaic text called 'The Lesser Keys of Salomon' with all the very folkloristic drawings. The meanings too, have very little in common with RWS, Marseille, Thoth or whichever method/deck you have been using, only a numerical reference. The card stock, though not bad in my opinion are matte finishing and look like cardboard... This deck, at least this is my understanding, is to be used in invocations and conjuring, but I really don't know much about that. What I really like about this though, are the demons pictures and the descriptions not to mention the seals of King Salomon. It is fascinating to research and go at the origins of Angelic Realms from the old Testament, but being detached and objective without making it a matter of faith, dogma and keeping views rather...secularized, so to speak. Really outstanding as novelty for me as a tarot decks collector and enthusiast. Excellent to be part of a collection.

Great qualit and I love the guidebook that is included :))
