Universal Waite® Tarot Deck/Book Set
The iconic drawings of Pamela Colman Smith have been beautifully re-colored by artist Mary Hanson-Roberts.
The original meanings and rich symbolism of the Rider-Waite artwork come through with greater clarity and fresh, new details.
The enhanced imagery make the Universal Waite Tarot deck more accessible to newcomers and more appealing to seasoned tarot readers. Hanson-Roberts’ serene colors also make the Universal Waite deck as perfect for meditation as it is for divination.
This deck/book set includes a 78-card Universal Waite Tarot deck, the Pictorial Key to the Tarot by Arthur Edward Waite, and a tarot spread sheet with designated spaces for the 10-card Celtic Cross Spread. Book contents include: The Veil and its Symbols; The Doctrine Behind the Veil; The Outer Method of the Oracles, The Greater Arcana and their Divinatory Meanings, and The Art of Tarot Divination.

This beautifully curated deck and book set invites readers into the timeless world of Rider-Waite Tarot, reimagined with the soft, luminous palette of artist Mary Hanson-Roberts. The accompanying book, The Pictorial Key to the Tarot by Arthur Edward Waite, takes readers on a thoughtful journey through the philosophy and symbolism behind the cards — exploring the veil of esoteric meaning, the doctrine of the Major and Minor Arcana, and the sacred art of tarot divination. Together, the deck and book offer a complete and deeply rooted introduction to one of the most beloved tarot traditions in the world.
This set is ideal for newcomers who want a reliable, well-documented foundation for learning tarot, as well as seasoned readers who wish to deepen their relationship with the classic Rider-Waite imagery through a fresh and more visually accessible lens. The serene, harmonious colors of Hanson-Roberts' recoloring make the cards especially welcoming for those who also incorporate meditation or contemplative practice into their spiritual routine.
Readers will walk away with a thorough understanding of each card's divinatory meaning, a working knowledge of the iconic Celtic Cross spread, and the confidence to bring tarot into their everyday spiritual life. Whether used for self-reflection, guided readings, or quiet morning rituals, this set becomes a meaningful and lasting companion on the path of inner exploration and intuitive growth.
