Mindscapes Tarot AMAZED Me—Here’s Why
This deck feels like a dream. Think Monet, not Rider-Waite.
Painterly, immersive, and not your typical tarot deck. Mindscapes Tarot surprised me, and I don’t say that often.
I track how a deck moves, not just how it looks. If you're building a reading practice that goes deeper than the guidebook, this is where to start.

Mindscapes Tarot by John A. Rice (published by Hay House) is one of the few decks I’ve reviewed that stopped me mid-review. The whole deck feels like stepping into a Monet painting. The art is painterly and layered. What blew me away was how each minor suit cards build on each other. The energy flows across the cards, not just within them. This isn’t your standard Rider-Waite clone. It’s dreamlike, but it reads sharp. In this video, I take you on a journey through the entire deck, go into the guidebook, and show a live reading at the end so you can see how it works.
