Tarot Young

Tarot Young - starter set with keywords and video guidance

Most tarot sets assume you already know the basics. Tarot Young does not. It is built for people who have never held a tarot card and want to start reading straight away.

Beate Staack is a tarot influencer who designed this set around one clear question: how do you explain tarot without making it heavy or complicated? The answer is a set that puts keywords directly on the cards, so you have something to hold onto during a reading without constantly flipping through the guidebook.

What you see on the cards

The illustrations are based on Rider-Waite-Smith imagery, the most widely used standard in tarot. Those familiar images come with keywords printed on the card face. That shortens the gap between image and meaning, which matters most when you are still learning.

How the guidebook works

The guidebook describes everyday situations for each card. No lengthy philosophical detours, just recognisable examples that show how a card might apply to an ordinary week. The framework is called 'Light Vibes & Dark Vibes': for every card, Staack describes both the lighter and the shadow side of what it can mean.

That is more honest than dividing cards into good and bad. Every card carries more than one reading, and this approach makes that clear without overcomplicating it.

The QR codes

The guidebook includes QR codes that link to instructional videos. Those videos show spreads step by step, visually. If you would rather watch than read, they are immediately useful. A practical addition for anyone taking their first steps.

Scan the QR code next to a spread you want to try and follow along with the video. The guidebook does not even need to be open.
