Product Description
The Da Vinci Enigma Tarot is faithful to his vision, drawing upon his notebooks, drawings, and ideas. Lavishly illustrated with his art work, the deck creates a portable notebook containing the macrocosm (Major cards), the greater archetypal world, and the microcosm (Minor cards), the lesser manifest world of everyday. Using Da Vinci's own insights, the accompanying book enables the reader to use the deck to discover fresh ways of looking at personal experience. As Leonardo wrote, "It is an easy thing to make oneself universal."
With interest in Da Vinci at an all time high, The Da Vinci Enigma Tarot will provide fresh insight and perspective to the millions of readers drawn to learn more about this 'secret master' whose art and invention still move us today.

Customer Reviews
Beautiful Art Work.
I love Da Vinci!!
I purchased this deck for the art work. I figured once I recieved it I would know if it was a deck to work with. One that speaks to me, giving me a feeling of completeness. This deck did not do that for me. The drawings on most of the cards have little to do with the card it is depicting. I have over 200 decks and several I have bought for the art work alone. This is one of those decks. The cards are on the flimsy side and I don't believe would hold up well with daily use. I did use this deck for a few readings for myself and then I did what I do with a lot of decks I buy for the art work, I framed it!! Because the cards are on the thin side they framed up beautifully!! I have many decks framed and hanging in my reading room. I even plagiarized it by signing it "To Cyndee, With love, Da Vinci"!! hehe! Silly I know but customers and family love it!!
With Tarot it is such a personal buy that I respect everyones review and feel that because it is so very personal it makes it hard to review! That is what makes buying from Amazon so nice. You can return it with very little to no hassle.
Not what I expected
As compared to other tarot/oracle decks I have seen, these cards were, in every way, inferior. The minor arcana were all line drawings from DaVinci's notebooks - monochrome... non-descript... often having nothing to do with the meaning of the card. The card stock, itself, was thin. I didn't read thru the book, so I can't comment on the value of it. Overall, I would say this set is cheap.
DaVinci Enigma Tarot
This set made a fine gift and was well worth the purchase price. Any novice reader will enjoy this set.
