Giving a Tarot reading is exciting and fun, especially when it’s about “Love.” It is the hottest and most appealing topic for many who seek answers from the Tarot cards. As a tarot reader, I find it fun to spice up the experience with a deck that drips love and romance. 

Here are the 6 best tarot decks for love readings: 

  1. The Neo Rider Tarot Collection
  2. Modern Love Tarot
  3. The Destiny Deck
  4. Pride Tarot LGBTQ+
  5. The Muse Tarot
  6. Light Seer’s Taro

Some little things to consider when you are buying a Tarot deck are card imagery, size, quality, and price. I’ll include these aspects of each deck in the listing below. I have also added some other miscellaneous features that I noticed while researching the different tarot love decks. 

In the end, I will reveal which is my favorite. I would also love to hear yours in the comment section below. 

The Neo Rider Tarot Collection – The Love Deck

This Tarot deck is one of the most stunning decks I’ve seen. The first thing that will strike you is the color and the outstanding finish of the card box. Its holographic foil printing and the velvet lamination gives it a classy and luxurious feel. Immediately this deck is saying that you are going to like me. 

The Love deck comes with 78 cards and a 100-page booklet with black and white pages. 

Card Imagery: The card imagery is identical to the classic and most popular card deck “The Rider Tarot Deck”. In a way, this is good because it makes this deck very approachable no matter what level reader you are. On the other hand, it is a bit of a disappointment cause the imagery lacks originality. 

What the reviews say: The reviews tell me that it is made very well, and the cards are of high quality. Some mention that the cards are a tad slippery, but that is normal with new cards. The only thing that some buyers actually complained about was the shipping time. This was likely due to the unique situation that was going on in the spring of 2020. Most countries were experiencing a lockdown, and the postal services were not functioning normally. According to the seller, the regular shipping time is 3-4 weeks. 

Card Size: The card size is the standard tarot card size: 2.75″ x 4.75 inches (70X120mm).

Price: The price with shipping included is 59 US dollars. Sold in Etsy.com

Modern Love Tarot – Exploring The Many Facets of Love

This absolutely stunning 78 card Tarot deck focuses on a different aspect of love and relationships. What I really love about it is the diverse display of love. This deck puts a smile on your face immediately. The deck creator Ethony said she has made this deck, especially for love readings. 

Modern Love Tarot deck comes with 78 cards with gilded silver edges, a companion guide book, and a rigid box for storage. 

Card Imagery: The card imagery has been designed by the creator of the deck. The illustrations have been brought to life by Lucy Morningstar and they represent modern love. The imagery includes people of all ages, color, and sexuality. It is a beautiful representation of what love is all about. 

What the reviews say: This deck has 511 reviews on Etsy, and the rounded average is 5 out of 5. People seem to love the imagery and praise the quality of the cards. 

Card Size: These cards are a bit bigger than the standard card deck. Large format 3.5″ × 5.75 (89X146mm). 

Price:  Etsy 40 US dollars + shipping 

The Destiny Deck

This deck hasn’t necessarily been made for love readings. Still, I wanted to add it to the list because the color and the theme of the cards give me love-vibes. The finish of the cards looks absolutely astonishing. 

The creator has included astrological symbols and keywords on the cards to give clues for the reader about the meanings. This deck seems to suit beginner readers well. 

The Destiny deck comes with 78 (plus two bonus cards) gold foil finished cards. They are printed on heavyweight paper stock, and the finish gives them a velvety feel. The cards stay protected in a beautiful red hard case that comes with the deck. The deck doesn’t include a guidance booklet, but each card has two keywords printed on them to help with the interpretation. 

Card Imagery: This is what caught my eye when I was searching for Love tarot cards. The cards are printed on lovely pink paper with very personable images. The creator tells that she is an architect and an interior designer, which shows in her work. The cards are absolutely beautifully crafted. 

For me, the images give a sense of sensuality and love. Therefore I would feel great using these for love readings. 

What the reviews say: This deck hasn’t received so much love yet as there are only two reviews on Etsy. But both of them are 5 stars and they praise the deck plus the bracelet that apparently comes with the deck. 

Card Size: The card size is the standard 2.75″ x 4.75 inches (70mm x 120 mm).

Price: at Etsy.com 60 Dollars + shipping

Pride Tarot LGBTQ+

This deck struck me immediately. I have many friends from the LGBTQ community, and several of them absolutely love Tarot readings. I would love to surprise one of my friends with this deck as a present. 

The deck has been created by 45 diverse artists from around the world. The deck portrays the pictures in the same format as the Rider Waite deck, so most people will be very comfortable adapting to this deck. 

The 78 (plus one rainbow card) card deck comes with a 192-page guidebook that includes illustrations, artists’ bios, card descriptions, and instructions for a “Parade Card Spread.” 

Card Imagery: As the imagery has been made by 45 different artists, the imagery is very versatile. The illustrations differ a lot in style. Some of them are nativistic, and some of them are even a bit renaissance like. Of course, the deck’s theme is on the LGBTQ issues and depicts a lot of sexual energy. 

What the reviews say: The average rating at etsy.com seems to be just below 5.0, so people are loving this deck. The few negative feedback appears to be related to the lengthy shipping times caused by the lockdowns in the spring of 2020.  

Card Size: The card size is the standard 2.75″ x 4.75 inches (70X120mm).

Price: Etsy.com’s price is 24 US dollars plus shipping, which can get rather costly if you are ordering outside the US. 

The Muse Tarot

This deck is a stunning one. It has staggering bright colors that romantically please my eye. I would love to use this for my Love Tarot readings for sure. 

There are no traditional suits in this deck but they are pretty obvious alternates. They are called as Emotions (Cups), Inspiration (Wands), Voices (Swords), and Materials (Pentacles).  

This 78 card deck comes with a hardcover box and a guidebook that contains card meanings, poetry, plus some word prompts that help with the readings—definitely a deck to consider. 

Card Imagery: The creator Chris-Anne Donnelly has an eye for beautiful things. You can tell that she is a graphic designer by profession. The imagery on these cards is spectacular. It’s a combination of graphical elements and photorealistic figures. 

What the reviews say: On amazon.com this deck has a 4.7 average rating, and on Etsy.com, it lands to very similar numbers with three different sellers. The positive that pops up from the reviews is the illustrations. Just like me, everybody seems to like the imagery. There are some complaints about the cards’ quality so that might be one thing to consider when ordering this deck. 

Card Size: These cards are a bit bigger than the standard card deck. Large format 3.2 x 2 x 5.2 inches (82X132mm)

Price: They sell 20 US dollars in amazon.com and around 25 US dollars on etsy.com

Light Seer’s Taro

This is another deck that I wanted to include on the list based on its illustrations. And it’s no wonder it is beautiful and pleases the eyes because the creator is the same as in The Muse Tarot deck – Chris-Anne Donnelly. 

The creator says that this deck is ideal for uncovering places in your life that need illumination. I would say that I would love to receive and give a love reading with these illuminating cards. 

Card Imagery

Like said, the creator is amazingly talented. On this deck, the imagery is mainly illustrations. They have a certain sensuality to them that is very comforting. I simply get relaxed vibes from these pictures. 

What the reviews say

This deck has a whopping number of reviews on Amazon.com, with an average of 4.5 out of 5. Just like with the Muse Tarot deck, the illustration is praised, but the quality of the cards gets a bit of complaint. But if you look at the price and compare it to some of the other decks on this list, it is no wonder that the quality is lower. 

Card Size

These cards are a bit bigger than the standard card deck. This deck is 3.2 x 2 x 5.2 inches (82X132mm)

Price

This deck sells for 22 US dollars in amazon.com 

The verdict

My personal favorite of all of the decks that I searched is the Modern Love Tarot. Its message and illustrations are just so cheery. 

I hope you guys enjoyed this little piece of research. Please leave a comment below and let me know which one is your favorite deck for Love readings.
