Is this deck welcoming to those just starting out?Yes, but with a caveat. Although the images are intuitive and inspiring, traditional tarot figures and symbolism such as in the Rider-Waite-Smith deck are missing.

However, beginners who are attracted to the minimalist style and are willing to work intuitively will get a lot out of this deck.
