Description
Your First Tarot – Victoria Maxwell
Your First Tarot by Victoria Maxwell is back in stock after selling out quickly the first time around. Designed as an accessible way to learn tarot, it combines the familiar structure of the Rider–Waite–Smith system with a distinctive colour palette, gold-edged cards and keywords printed directly onto the cards.
The deck follows the traditional 78-card Rider–Waite–Smith structure, making it a useful starting point for learning the system that underpins a huge amount of modern tarot. The familiar scenes and symbolism remain recognisable, but the artwork has been reworked in shades of pink, teal and gold, giving the deck an identity of its own.
What makes Your First Tarot particularly useful for learning is the inclusion of keywords on each card. Rather than repeatedly stopping a reading to consult a book, you have prompts in front of you that can help you remember the card’s central themes while still looking at the imagery and considering what it means within the reading.
This can be especially helpful when learning how cards interact. Tarot isn’t simply about memorising 78 separate definitions. Meaning changes according to the question, surrounding cards, position within a spread and your own interpretation. Having the keywords there as a reference gives you something to work from while you gradually become less reliant on them.
An accompanying guidebook by Victoria Maxwell provides further support, with card meanings, guidance for reading tarot and spreads to practise with as you develop your confidence.
And despite the name, Your First Tarot isn’t only for first-time readers. Experienced tarot readers who already know the Rider–Waite–Smith system may simply appreciate this interpretation of it. The creative colour treatment, decorative card backs, gold edges and presentation box make it a beautiful working deck as well as an attractive addition to a tarot collection.
For newer readers, it offers a practical route into learning tarot without stripping away the traditional system they’ll encounter elsewhere. For established readers, it’s a familiar deck seen through a very different visual lens.
Victoria Maxwell is a spiritual author, tarot reader, soul reader, Akashic Records guide and spiritual development teacher whose work focuses on making spiritual practice accessible, intuitive and personal.
Working across tarot, divination, energy healing, magick and spiritual development, she encourages people to explore different traditions and tools while developing a practice that genuinely works for them. Rather than presenting spirituality as a fixed path, her approach leaves room for curiosity, intuition and an evolving relationship with spiritual practice.
As an author and deck creator, Victoria brings this same approach to her work, creating resources that help readers engage with spiritual subjects without making them feel unnecessarily complicated or inaccessible. Your First Tarot reflects this particularly well, offering the structure needed to learn the Rider–Waite–Smith system while encouraging readers to develop confidence in their own interpretations and intuitive responses to the cards.
She is also the creator and author of several books and divination tools exploring tarot, oracle reading, intuition and contemporary spiritual practice.
