Tarot card deck for beginner readings: Soul Weight Tarot Cards

I’m going to take on learning hobby tarot with the Soul Weight Tarot Cards created by Tarot Master Jeong Hoedo.

Why I wanted to try tarot for the first time

A delivery-arrival text 🎶🎵 The tarot cards arrived safely in their shipping box. These days, it is not hard to spot places offering tarot readings as I walk down the street. Tarot cafés feel like part of everyday culture now—somewhere you can drop into without much pressure.

Regardless of faith or religion, I think tarot can give you a sense of soul, perhaps an energetic flow, a positive mindset, and comfort. Life brings moments that truly make you understand the phrase “so many twists and turns.” By chance, I came across Tarot Master Jeong Hoedo’s YouTube channel. I used to think tarot was superstition, but that was a preconceived idea. I see it as an opportunity to look at myself, so I’m going to learn intuitive readings as a hobby.

What comes with the Soul Weight Tarot Cards

• 78 Soul Weight Tarot Cards
• 80 cards total: 22 Major Arcana, 56 Minor Arcana, and 2 blank cards
• Korean guidebook
• Coupon worth ₩30,000
• Leaflet for Soul Class, “learning with soul”

My first feel of the two-piece box and cards

Since this was my first time with tarot cards, everything felt fascinating. The rows of gold-foil dots on the two-piece box gave off a mysterious, cosmic sort of feeling. The glossy coating felt soft and smooth in my hands. The finishing makes it feel luxurious, too—such a clever touch.

I only just learned that tarot decks are divided into several different systems. The Soul Weight Tarot Cards are said to reimagine the Universal Waite Tarot, designed more than 100 years ago, in a modern 21st-century style.

I heard that inexpensive tarot cards sold on the market can be counterfeit products made in China, with smaller sizes and very poor materials and durability. As a beginner, I think checking that it is authentic should come before choosing the lowest price.

A total tarot beginner starting with the guidebook

The Soul Weight Tarot Cards are made with premium German paper and are said to be highly durable. They look like they would hold up well even with long use. You can store them in the elegant box, too.

I discovered Tarot Master Jeong Hoedo, who has 480,000 YouTube subscribers, through this opportunity, so I went to YouTube, subscribed, and listened. I am a complete tarot beginner, but the explanations are easy to understand and really sink in. I also learned that surprisingly many people are interested in tarot.

The Soul Weight Tarot Cards written by Tarot Master Jeong Hoedo come with a Korean guidebook for the 78 cards, which seems helpful for absolute tarot beginners.

• Said to have much cleaner linework than existing Waite-style cards
• Modern colors
• Fresh visuals
• Intuitive readings are possible

My first tarot reading, spread out in the morning

I got up in the morning and spread the tarot cards right out. They spread so smoothly thanks to their soft feel—what a surprise~)) It made the experience twice as interesting.

My first card: Sword

The first card I drew was Sword. Lingering attachment, regret, remorse, longing. It says there is regret and disappointment over not having done my best.

One more card: Fire

I drew one more. Fire. Many things, lower importance, a need to choose, change, movement. It means various things are pouring onto me. It says I need to choose one important thing and focus, so I should have a focused day.

After trying the Soul Weight Tarot Cards, they are fun and somehow energizing; I feel like they give my mind a direction toward one thing.

Having experienced the Soul Weight Tarot Cards, I feel scattered and confused thoughts become focused and steadier. If I learn tarot little by little as a hobby, I think it could help bring calm to everyday life, too.

I think it was a good decision to start learning tarot as a hobby.

A discount coupon worth ₩30,000 is said to be included with purchase, so I should try Tarot Master Jeong Hoedo’s tarot lectures and Soul Class as well. I recommend this to anyone who wants to begin learning tarot through intuitive readings.
