So, I really like this and actually think it fits my style. (I play the role of a mentalist/modern
shamanic healer.) Rarely do I buy a trick that I feel I can actually use as it. This one I can. That
said, it won't fit everyone's style. It just wouldn't be a good fit for most magicians. Let me put
it this way, if an invisible deck fits your style, then just stick with it, don't bother with this.
Compared to the invisible deck, this will take much longer to set up correctly (in terms of patter),
and if you don't set the mood right and instead play the role of the skeptic, trickster, showman, or
conman, then when it comes to tarot, it will all seem a pointless farce.
For those who find
that the invisible deck looks too much like a magic trick and you want an effect that is more
believable and less impossible, and if your style leans more towards the bizarre and you also do
tarot, then this might be for you. It can touch the participant more. It is really about feeling. I
see this as a good opening for someone who wants to do tarot readings. It would be out of place if
it is the only tarot thing you do.
As to the trick itself. It is devilishly clever. There are
multiple principles at work, and they are all layered together. I won't tip just what they are, but
as I watched the video I had several "Damn, that is clever" moments. I can tell that some real time
and effort went into thinking this out. This is a developed routine, not just a good idea to be used
elsewhere. There are many other tarot tricks available. The Invocation, for instance, has several,
but each of those are generally just card trick adapted to a tarot deck. This is more in that it
relates to a very common tarot reading.
The deck itself is first rate. The art is good. It looks
aged. It handles the way it needs to.
