The Shadowscapes Tarot is rather atypical in the context of my previous self-bought deck acquisitions. The bordering is a mild silver color, and the color schemes are very light and tend towards the pastel. Overall the deck has a slightly washed out aesthetic, compared to my other two decks, but also feels very delicate and light. Each card image has a lot going on in it, but there are some recurring themes. Almost every card has fairy-like figures melding into and out of the landscape, and the imagery shows lots of repeating hearts and ankhs. The humanoid figures, and even some of the animal figures, often sport colorful tattoos in repeating or similar patterns. This was especially noticeable in the wands suite — they all, but humanoid and non-humanoid, seemed to have the same tattoo pattern on the shoulder.
One of the main reactions I had to this deck, when I sat down to write the first glance, was how much was happening in each card. At a single glance it is easier, but one I look any closer I quickly become overwhelmed. Therefore, I will not be exhaustively describing each card, but will just be commenting on what caught my eye about it.
