Major disappointment

After searching and searching for a Rune based oracle deck I settled on this one because all the other are a hundred dollars or more and very rare. After these arrived and I had the opportunity to open and look at them I have to say this.. RUBBISH!! The sheer amount of laziness and unprofessionalism that went into these cards is astounding.
Most fo the artwork is rehashed from other Lo Scarabeo Tarot decks. and have absolutely nothing to do with "Runic" or Runic traditions. Examples would be.. Why is there a Conquistador in a "Runic" card set (Northern European)and Native Americans on others. I'll tell you why, LAZINESS on the companies part to actually put any effort into artwork and meaning. This is nothing but a blatant money grab and a huge disappointment!!! Ohh and lets not forget the book. Thy claim is comes with a 100+ page book and it does, however the actual useful/useable information takes up 15 pages and the rest is translation into 8 different languages so the book comprises over 100 pages. Again, another example of LAZINESS and unprofessional money grubbing RUBBISH!!!

Avoid this deck- it is NOT representative of the Futhark Runes

When I began looking for a deck of rune cards to offer clients as a reading option, I picked up this deck hoping for something with some meaningful art. I fully intended to ignore the booklet inside having my own rune studies to guide me. I was very disappointed when I opened this deck (having not googled the images before).
The choices made for each rune certainly have very little to absolutely no relevance to the rune meaning. One would think that if an artist is going to generate art for a type of deck (rune, tarot, oracle whatever) s/he would put some effort to study the cultural aspect, meanings, and aesthetic relevance between the images and the meanings.

The art choices for this deck are bizarre, disturbing, and useless to most of the cards. here are some of the art choices:
Ansuz - looks like the decapitated head of an old Roman sage.
Sowilo- looks like Apollo (Greek god of the sun. In Germanic lands Sunna is female)
Othala - inheritance: looks like one of the "wise men" bringing gifts to Jesus
Eiwaz- so bizarre it has nothing to do with the rune
This just to name a few of the strange and irrelevant artistic choices.

I recommend staying away from this deck as it has nothing to do with the power of the runes nor their layered and rich meanings.

For those seeking a deck of rune cards, I recommend Power of the Runes by Voenix (available in Amazon). A much better deck of artwork more related to the culture and meanings.

valorizar con una estrella y ni siquiera eso vale

Solo el las imágenes son bonitas . Esperaba esto con mucha ilusión . Fue decepcionante ver que el Tamaño no coincide con lo que se indica y la calidad de las barajas es pésima.
Además de que son más pequeñas que las medida que indica . Viven mader 5” 1/2 cuando en realidad con caja y todo solo llego a 4”

El chiste que me piden al esperar mientras se descarga el video Es: COMO ME HACEN OERDER EL TIEMPO.
