Rider Waite Standard - Pamela Colman Smith

The Rider-Waite Tarot is the most famous and the first deck published in the 20th century. Now you can use it as a learning tool to understand the cards, but also as a reference work of positions and meanings.

Rider-Waite Tarot has set the standard for hundreds of other tarot decks, which follow the archetypal images that Pamela Colman Smith created in 1909 under the guidance of Arthur Edward Waite. This edition contains Smith's original hand-drawn titles.

“A unique feature of the Rider-Waite deck, and one of the main reasons for its enduring popularity, is that all cards, including the Minor Arcana, depict entire scenes of figures and symbols. Before the Rider-Waite Tarot, the pip cards of almost all tarot decks were marked only with the arrangement of the suit signs: swords, wands, cups and coins, or pentacles. The images on all maps allow interpretations without the need to repeatedly consult the explanatory text. Pamela Colman Smith's innovative Minor Arcana and ability to capture the subtleties of emotion and experience have made the Rider-Waite Tarot a model for the designs of many tarot packs. Rider-Waite Tarot was named one of the top ten tarot decks of all time by Aeclectic Tarot.
