Tea Leaf Fortune Cards: 200 Round Divination Cards and 98-page Illustrated Guidebook for Reading Tea Leaves (Tasseomancy) and Fortune Telling Cards – 20 Mar. 2017

They are impossible to shuffle but really lovely cards with some great illustrations.

Only bad thing was the bag ripped on me so i haven't used them in a few weeks due to needing a new bag but yeah i am 25 years old and have been reading tarot ect since i was 6 years old and i have to say this set was a good idea less messy than tea leafs in a cup aha. Just as accurate as tea leafs and has a book for people that does not know how to read the cards. I did myself a reading and a few friends with these so far and everything has come true so far exactly to the detail in my life. They told me of a female that could cause some problems for me with my partner and a few other details that would lead to it and the aftermath...well lets just say i was prepared because of these cards as i don't like tea myself so i never had done a reading on myself with this method till recently. So yeah it helped a lot and saved my engagement big time :) random i know but i never even do my own tarot well i haven't since i was 16 so it was lucky i got these aha. I would say these would be very good for begginers and for people who struggle to learn things fast as with these the cards kinda explain themselves.

I loved the concept of these cards and decided to try them. As other people have found they seem to be super accurate. They are to the point which I like.The bag isn’t big enough to mix the cards a good shimmy round the table or floor is much better or I devide the pile into a more manage amount to shuffle them then a final mix.Great book! Great box. I have already ordered as a gift for a friend.

It is an accurate and fun game, be prepared to set aside an hour or two though, these readings can take time and also space to layout! If you shuffle the cards outside of the bag/pouch (yes it does come loose at its seem on first use!) that is included then you will need more surfaces, one for shuffling and one for laying the cards out on. I am referring to the full year method here which is recommended for first use, you have to shuffle inbetween each full deck or cycle of 12 months. Shuffling and laying the cards out does not take that much time up (I haven't timed it because that would cause me to lose my concentration and energetic focus on allowing my intuition to guide me when selecting cards) but recording your results does take the most time, in my experience at least. You can write down each result in full with its full descriptve meaning for your record, because if you take these cards more seriously than merely a game, you will want to see if you can make use of their predictions and see if you can adjust these. The best thing about destiny is that everything is fluid and dynamic, nothing is static, unless you want it to be, then you allow it to be! Nothing is set in stone until it has happened, then it is too late to change it, if you allow too much time to pass, that is until we have time travel to see the results of things before we do things!If you are anything like me and do have intuition but often ignore it, to your peril! But you can still tune in to it and use it, the best way to describe intuition or gut feeling to anyone that is not familiar or sure; just act on what you first strongly feel, although the feeling may also be subtle, yet distinct. Some would simply call it common sense, and maybe it is some of the time. I don't know how else to describe it, but it is energy that you and every one else naturally has, and you may choose to ignore it to your disadvantage. It is always right as well, so think of yourself as your own oracle, you have all the answers already, you just need to learn to listen to yourself or how to tune into to your inner self. I know this sounds like new age nonsense to a lot of people, but if it works for you and you know it makes sense, only you can have the experience to testify this, then you should not care what any one else thinks or believes to be true, they are simply wrong and their "reasonable explanations" are just their way of denying what they do not know or see, so it must not be real, for them. Many people have preminitions, even people that are not psychic, I read stories of how people know their future before it happens, we all have this ability and many of us experience it at some time in our life. I am logically minded, I want evidence and proof before I believe it is true, but I also want my creative side to grow, you can only acchive this when you have an open mind and think symbolically and creatively. This is most difficult to do in the modern western world, even increasingly so in the east now as well. I have done numerous tests over the years online and found that my left side of my brain dominates - probably too much! I want this to change and I think working with fortune cards, whether tea leaves, tarot, Russian Gyspsy cards, etc they will help me on this path along with other brain training development and exercise methods.I found that using the cards does require or use a certain amount of energy, probably because I did the full year method and recorded the results. I did this because I would have had to refer to the booklet each time otherwise, which each meaning is in alphabetical order, and your cards you pick certainly are not! So it makes sense to me to take photos on my phone of each month and the cards in the order I picked them, because the cards are divided into four sections of the month, depending on how you prefer your tradition tea leaf reading - some do not split the months up like this. I don't want to go into any more details on how to use the cards, other than to say it is easy even for first use and easier after that. Even if you are buying these for fun, it is fun! If you want them for genuine guidance then I think you will find them useful, they do provide you with an insight into your current situation and your deepest ambitions that you are still working toward in life and any boundaries that you are up against, or may be in the future and what to look out for to avert anything undesired.

Packaging good.Creative art work and book good.Bit pricey .

Very nice cards and the book . Beautiful set . I love them . Thank you very much !

I love these cards, the packaging and design overall, the quality of illustration seems to vary from card to card and personally, I felt some designs could have been left out to enhance the overall quality of the pack. Anyway, as a tarot reader it's a completely different experience working with these. I love the design and it is a beautiful deck generally, with some really pretty images (blossoms, plants, cups of tea). I've tried combining them with a Rider Waiter deck to deepen my readings and it's quite interesting for getting info. This deck does take you on a different journey and that's pretty interesting: I love the history behind the concept: the creator is a traditional tea leaf reader and interpreted this into the physical deck.My biggest downside with this set is the quality of illustration: some cards are lovely others, not so much. Also, it might be because I'm relatively new to it and perhaps it's tradition in tea leaf culture, but there are quite a few different cards with dogs on to represent various positive things. There are around six or seven! Unless you adore dogs, how many dog cards does an oracle pack need? Like many other card readers, I am an animal lover but this seemed an odd decision and feel the meanings of the dogs (friendship, for example) could have been given a slightly nicer image of nature (seeing a pack of dogs on a card isn't something I would naturally find as positive as say, a flower and it jarred with the overall aesthetic). Personally, I felt there should have just been one dog cards and one cat cards max or other wildlife (plus very sad to find the only cat card had a negative, nasty meaning!). Again, this is probably me and it is subjective: there are a lot of cards in this deck so it's only a small part.Generally though, those small complaints aside, I would definitely recommend the deck though, overall, it's lovely with its circular design. It's of a great quality and feels quite personal which is nice due to the style of drawings. It has lovely traditional imagery in places and would make a great gift for someone into collecting oracle decks. :)
