The Via Tarot: The Path of Life by Susan Jameson is well worth what you will pay for it and more. It is an invaluable tool. I first read a small review about this deck and saw a few pictures of the cards and decided to order it. I am a collector of Tarot Decks and I specifically look for decks created by artist and writers who emphasize the relationship between the Tarot and Qabalah.
This deck is one such deck. The creator uses the Crowley/Harris Thoth deck as her framework and builds from there. She spent hours meditating on each design and the meaning behind the description to create each card beautifully. This deck comes with a rather large book that tells what each card means to her. She is truly an Artist who knows her stuff. I have worked with the Tarot for over 20 years and I was amazed by the symbology of each card. I have shown this deck to the Lady who was my first teacher of the Tarot and she was blown away, stating that this is the only deck that she has seen emerge in years that she would use to meditate on. Believe me, that says alot. Each card is a visual masterpiece. It is detailed with occult symbology that will aid you in unlocking the deeper receses of your mind. A powerful deck, of great use to either a new beginner or a seasoned reader. I cannot stress enough the importance of this deck. Besides the Crowley/Harris Thoth deck, this is the one other deck you should own and more importantly, you should use.
