Reviews for "Elevate Your Tarot Practice with the Modern Witch Tarot Deck: Advanced Techniques and Insights"
- Sarah - 1 star - I was really disappointed with the Modern Witch Tarot Deck Guide. The descriptions of the cards were very vague and generic, and I didn't feel like they offered any new insights or interpretations. The author seemed more interested in showcasing their artwork than actually providing useful guidance for tarot readers. Overall, I found it to be a shallow and unhelpful guide.
- Michael - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the Modern Witch Tarot Deck Guide, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The explanations for each card lacked depth and didn't provide much substance. I also found the writing style to be confusing and hard to follow. There are much better tarot deck guides out there that offer more comprehensive and insightful interpretations.
- Emma - 1 star - The Modern Witch Tarot Deck Guide was a major letdown for me. I found the interpretations of the cards to be too simplistic and shallow. It felt like the author was just ticking boxes and going through the motions without really delving into the deeper meanings of the cards. As someone who has been studying tarot for years, I didn't find this guide to be useful or enlightening at all. I would not recommend it to serious tarot enthusiasts.
