Introduction

For thousand of years the Roma (Gipsy) lived nomadic lifestyle and consequently came across with many different cultures and nations. The knowledge of fortune telling card was handed down by the Gipsy women from one generation to the next long time before printing was discovered. Every fortune telling card reader girl drew her own pack of cards - some were more skilled then others - however the point is that these illiterate Roma girls familiarized themselves with their own fortune telling cards. By drawing it themselves they gained a deep and elevated understanding of the meaning of each card. Since Roma people were exposed to many different cultures and languages in their travel the Gipsy Fortune Telling Cards had to be illustrated in an articulate way that everyone could understand, hence overcome the language and cultural barriers. The handmade cards preserved the knowledge of many generations and at the same time they could adapt to the ever changing world. With the discovery of printing the factory made cards naturally come with inscriptions, but even today Roma women use their own cards without writing. When you order our Cards you will also receive a blank deck in the box. By drawing your own cards you gain a deeper understanding of the meaning of each card. Our Gipsy Fortune Telling Deck is based on the original tradition. The Cards were drown by Mirabella, a Hungarian Gipsy women and based on three European Gipsy women's own fortune telling deck preserved through many generation in their family. The Cards present all the important possibilities of life with unmistakably direct oration in a straight forward drawing that is easy to understand. The meaning of the pictures are universal meanings and it is the result of the experiences that were gathered through thousand of years. When interpreting the cards sometimes the whole picture is taken into account, whilst in other cases you only have to consider some elements in the picture. It's very important to put the question properly. Before spreading the cards it is worth while to light a white candle because it helps to tune into the free flow of energy.
