The Saints & Mystics reading cards by Andres Engracia is a 36 card decks that “brings to life the stories and mystical knowledge of some of history’s most fascinating spiritual and mystical figures.”
The cards come in a magnetic hard box with full color nice detailed guidebook. The cards are pretty good stock with a gloss finish and are larger than standard tarot size.
I like that Rockpool Publishers includes in their decks information to download a free reading cards app through their company. Personally I have yet to check out this app but that is something on my list to check out in the future. I will report back 🙂 If you have or utilize this app comment down below your thoughts on it!
My favorite card for sure in the deck is Santa Muerte the Holy Death. Just something about this card gives me goosebumps when I see it. I think it’s very tastefully done and is a nice edition to the deck!
As you can see pictured to the right the deck is done in a photo-realistic style. Models portray the figures throughout history and the images are modified to…
well…
Just look really cool in my opinion 🙂
The deck is separated into ‘Saints’ and ‘Mystics’ and really cover a broad span of written history and present various archetypes.
What are your thoughts on this deck? Is it something you own or work with?
I’m not sure how often I will find myself reaching for this deck, but it for sure is something nice to have. I especially look forward to photographing with the cards as I feel it will bring a rather nice element.
I love the idea of this deck but the glamamoria

The Glamorisation is awful.
There are some iconic saints there and including Swedenborg and Blake is a nice touch but I cannot look at the faces of those models and connect to anything divine 👎
