The iconic Waite Smith deck was illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith on the instructions of academic and mystic A E Waite in 1909. It has since become one of most celebrated and popular Tarot decks of all time and has inspired a variety of later designs. Unlike other Tarot decks of the time, The Rider Waite Smith deck fully illustrated not only the Major Arcana and Court Cards but also the Minor Arcana. Their bold and romantic designs are rich in symbolism, and many layers of meaning can be discovered within them.
The accompanying guide contains advice on how to look after your cards and how to use them in readings for both yourself and others and will be a perfect introduction to the magical world of tarot. Discover what the universal symbols on tarot cards mean and how to use them to have clear insight into your everyday questions.

• A Rider Waite Smith tarot deck
• An accompanying guide on how to read them

About the Author
Arthur Edward Waite (1857 - 1942) was a mystic whose writings focused on the occult. He designed and co-creator of the world's most popular tarot deck - the Rider Waite Smith. His accompanying book to Pamela Colman Smith's famous paintings gave spiritual guidance and insight into esoteric ideas as well as outlining how to use tarot cards.
Pamela Colman Smith (1878-1951) was a British artist, illustrator, writer and occultist. She is best-known for illustrating the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck in collaboration with Arthur Waite. She received little recognition for her contributions to the deck and her name was left off most editions. Today, the modern Tarot community includes her name in the title to acknowledge the significant contribution of her artwork to the deck's popularity and longevity.Today, the modern Tarot community includes her name in the title to acknowledge the significant contribution of her artwork to the deck's popularity and longevity
