The Rumi Tarot includes a detailed book which explains the concept of Rumi's teachings and mystical wisdom. Detailed explanation and meaning is given for each card. In the book is a section on spiritual development using the cards and three spreads are included.


The Rumi Tarot differs slightly from the other traditional tarot decks as the wisdom shared is of a different understanding. The deck is for anyone seeking spiritual insight with an interest in mysticism. These beautiful cards could also be used as a meditation tool to embark on an inner spiritual journey.
